Synopsis for I Shall Survive Using Potions!
Kaoru Nagase died unexpectedly while coming home from her office job one night, when she suddenly finds herself in front of a man dressed in white. The man introduces himself as God and apologizes for the mistake that caused her untimely death, promising to make it up to Kaoru by reincarnating her in another world. The otherworldly goddess Celestine reforms Kaoru’s body and gives her all the concessions she asks for: the body she had when she was 15, the ability to make potions with effects of her choice, and a box with infinite storage space, to name a few.
But soon, Kaoru realizes that despite being told otherwise, this new medieval world doesn’t have much magic, making her potions highly coveted by greedy nobles. However, thanks to the knowledge acquired in his previous life, Kaoru will be able to find a way to survive in this world using his potions.
