So here is a bit of plot of Yuukaku ni Urareta Ore no Kanojo - up till scenes start rolling - I'll get under the cut; I might not be correct 100%, cause I got like through half of the game some time ago, but here is what I remember:
Protagonist name is Heima (meaning smth. like crippled or lame horse which might appear in translation). He's a thief – a member of some established guild or organization and as a child/teenager he worked in a major or single brothel in that town where the story takes place where main heroine – Chizuru - has a chance to end up eventually. Chizuru is a skilled swordsman – and she holds swordsmanship classes in a dojo. But as a person she is nice and somewhat clumsy and maybe naïve.
It all starts when Heima tries to steal some valuable sword from a place where gathering of those dojo masters takes place (incl. Chizuru) – unsuccessfully – so Chizuru captures him. The reason dojo masters got together is that recently some skilled swordsman they call Black Tengu (Dog) – because of the mask he's wearing - was assassinating local traders and they wanted to discuss the situation (both Chizuru and Tengu can be seen on one of the 'violent' screens on VNDB). Tengu strikes that evening and kills a person that got close to uncovering his identity and who wanted to share those findings with Chizuru.
As you'll learn later on the main suspect is Chizuru's brother who disappeared recently along with such Black Tengu mask which resided in dojo. So Chizuru asks Heima to cooperate and help her with the investigation in exchange for not passing him to the authorities in order to be prosecuted. The first step is to retrieve some journal or document that this killed person left in one of local authorities' buildings – so she needs his thieving skills.
And then it goes on. The story is interesting, you'll find that there are some of the people you've seen throughout the game were posing as those Tengu in order to be hired as bodyguards cause their dojos were struggling financially, and one of the traders were killed not by Tengu but because of the personal grudge held by another dojo master. You'll learn how strained relationships in Chizuru family were cause father always saw his son – her brother – as a capable warrior but he never was really into it, as opposed to Chizuru. Chizuru and Heima work on a case, spend some time at dojo and get closer. They go out to a festival, once on another occasion she gets drunk and Heima piggybacks here when she vomits right on his neck, if my memory serves ))
This boils down to a first choice in a game of two options, so you won't miss it if you skip all the dialogues up to it (which is why I'm writing this and is how you can save a few hours of play, if you wish). Local authorities representatives, kind of cops?, along with some dojo masters including Chizuru (Heima is with her) found a place where Black Tengu presumably hides – in an abandoned village. Should you decide to join the assault, the truth will be unveiled and this will lead to a true/happy ending, presuming that Heima and Chizuru get together (not a single hentai scene in this route!).
If you don't do it, Chizuru's brother (held in that house) is killed in the process and framed as Tengu (the true antagonist/s are amongst the people of the group assaulting the village). As a result Chizuru's father (some rather wealthy aristocratic guy residing in the countryside while Chizuru manages dojo) is pressed (cause his son turned to be a killer) to turn away from his daughter and Chizuru is being sold to a brothel. Heima tries to help her to run away on one of the nights – they are planning to start living together afterwards - but they both get captured because of one of the girls' treachery. So Chizuru has to agree to start working there in order to keep Heima from harm, hoping that they will be able to run away soon.
And that's where you'll probably want to start playing the game yourself )).

P.S. As anyone who plans to play will probably use XUnityAutoTranslator, it will produce a .txt file with translation in one of the folders. There is point in sharing it afterwards - it'll be like readily available MTL for anyone else (XUnityAutoTranslation will have to be installed still). Just don't forget to use Deepl (file config.ini in AutoTranslator folder, string 'Endpoint=DeepLTranslate').
