Rising of the Shield Hero. It's about a man who's summoned to a magical world to defend it from evil alongside three other heroes summoned from other worlds themselves.
The catch is, he's immediately betrayed and defamed, is given no chance to defend his honor, and must instead slog through the seedier parts of the world, cleaning up the other heroes' messes and grappling with his own bitterness, spite, and hatred for those he's meant to serve.
I recommend it.
