Hasegawa Ikumi as Aisha Udgard Soma, who was suddenly summoned to another world, uses modern wisdom and knowledge of politics and history to rebuild the kingdom... There are many Isekai titles, but when I first read it, I was surprised to see a hero in such a position. In this story, Aisha supports Soma with her martial arts skills. She seems to be a cool and talented martial artist, but she's actually quite clumsy. I'll do my best to bring out the innocent and cute charm of Aisha.
