The isekai story centers on a man who dies a virgin, but reincarnates as Glaive, a nobleman character in a certain erotic visual novel that the man played in his previous life. Though he plans to make the best of his new life as Glaive, he knows that the character will meet his pre-determined end in a few years, so he is determined to make plans to avoid that fate and make his harem.
