ROLL OVER AND DIE (“Omae Gotoki ga Maou ni Kateru to Omou na” to Yuusha Party o Tsuihousareta node, Outo de Kimama ni Kurashitai) is published under Micro Magazine’s GC Novels label, with four volumes released between 2018 to 2020. Seven Seas Entertainment describes the premise as:
Flum Apricot was never meant to be a hero. Despite zero stats across the board and a power she can’t even use, she somehow finds herself included in a party of heroes. But Flum’s life hits rock bottom when the party’s renowned sage, Jean Inteige, decides that the useless girl is dead weight, and arranges to have her sold into slavery. Tossed to monsters to be feasted upon for her master’s entertainment, Flum makes the desperate choice to reach for a cursed weapon…and something new awakens within her. A grimdark tale about one woman’s blood-soaked quest to reclaim her life!
The story began as a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel in January 2018. The light novels have inspired a manga adaptation.
