One day, she is whisked away to the Hidden Realm (Kakuriyo) by an Ogre-God, Ōdanna, who claims she must marry him to pay off her grandfather’s substantial debt. Refusing this proposition, Aoi instead opts to work at Ōdanna’s inn, the Tenjin-ya, as a cook to earn her way back to the human world and settle her grandfather’s debt through her culinary skills.
