Biography[]
While most of Boxxo's previous life as a human is unknown, what is known was his obsession with vending machines. He was such a vending machine otaku, when he was riding on his motorcycle, he was behind a truck when he noticed a vending machine that was about to fall out of the trunk. He tries to "save it" on reflex only to be crushed to death by the item of his obsession.
He then finds himself in another world where he became a vending machine. He learns that he could earn points by selling products he had encountered in his previous life and can use them to make upgrades on himself. However, if he were unable to sell anything, it could jeopardize him due to being reliant on the points to run.
Boxxo would eventually meet his first customer a young huntress named Lammis who then takes him further into the magical dungeon the series takes place in. From there, Boxxo would be used as a means of providing food and morale for the Hunter's Association.
