The story centers on 73-year-old Seitarō Asao, who runs a tea plantation. Due to a god's mistake, he gets transported to another world in the place of his grandchild. He then starts a second life 10 years younger as 63-year-old Seitarō. Through his wisdom of an old man and "assistance magic," he is able to live a leisurely life in his new home.


While protecting his grandson from a burglar, Seitaro Asao, a tea plantation owner, gets stabbed to death. A slight mix-up by a goddess gets him, instead of his grandson, accidentally summoned to another world. Seitaro accepts to take his grandson's place and starts his new life in the new world as a man ten years younger. Things are quite eventful from the start, but the gods work in mysterious ways, and wisdom and protection from the goddess helps him overcome all obstacles.
