I'll start.
Once upon a time in a barren desert that appeared to have been pulled straight out of a cliché video game, there was a sniper. Not just any sniper, mind you, but a sniper with dreams as big as his scope was long. He wanted to pull off the greatest and furthest shot the world had ever seen, and he was so close to achieving it. Six kilometers away, a lone enemy soldier was in his crosshairs, blissfully unaware that he was about to become a footnote in the world's oddest war story.
But fate, as it tends to do in these situations, had other plans. Just as he was about to squeeze the trigger, our intrepid sniper found himself whisked away from his desert sniper's nest and plopped unceremoniously into a strange and fantastical world. He didn't have time to process this otherworldly transformation because, well, there's no gentle way to put it – he died in the desert. The "Truck-kun," as the locals affectionately called it, had done its job.
And so began the odd tale of the sniper who became the unluckiest isekai protagonist. Armed with nothing but his trusty rifle, he set out on a journey to snipe every demon king general and whatever other nefarious beings this strange realm had to offer. You'd think he'd be hailed as a hero, right? Wrong.
Turns out, when you can kill someone from a ridiculous distance with just a twitch of your finger, people tend to be a tad afraid of you. Who knows if the kingdom's rulers could suddenly keel over from sniper-related accidents? The last thing they needed was an itchy trigger finger deciding their fate.
Bounties were placed on his head faster than you could say "bullseye." But our sniper was no ordinary sharpshooter. With his uncanny accuracy and a convenient love interest he had saved back in chapter 2 (because that's how these isekai stories work), he managed to elude capture. He gathered a motley crew of comrades on his journey, who all eventually found themselves in a most peculiar place – the former demon king's castle.
You see, after our sniper had shot him, no one really wanted to visit the place. It had become the demon king's equivalent of a haunted house, complete with a "Sniper-Proof" sign outside. And there, in the shadows of a neglected castle, our hero retired as the "greatest sniper in another world." It wasn't the life he'd planned for, but hey, it's not every day you get isekai'd while taking a shot.
