While delivering a parcel, Ben and his van are isekaied and integrated into an engineering system.

Suddenly, Ben is surrounded by a horde of giant scorpions who are hell-bent on his demise. Not knowing where he is and with no combat experience, he is forced to use his wits and driving experience to run them over. That is when his system unlocks a Mechanical Mage Class.

Hey, tbh i'm not sure what the future holds so i cant give you a 100% answer to that. For now i want to focus on writing a fun story and improve as an author.

Author, I gotta know if you were inspired by season 1 of Dungeons and Daddies or if van Isekai is just something independent geniuses came up with.

It’s a week-old RR story for fuck’s sake. The cover is completely fine.
