Akira Yagami, a salaryman, dies after saving a boy from being hit by a truck. He finds himself reincarnated in another world as a goblin. Living with other goblins, he learns that their life in this world is very short, only about seven days. However, as a result of his tragic death, he was allowed to live a far longer than usual life: 80 years. His arrival in the world coincided with the death of the Demon Lord, but as it turns out, the world still awaits a new threat.
