Story[]
A different world where Skills including HP, MP, Level, and Magic can be quantified and confirmed. In Slantania Kingdom, once every few generations, the era will come when the country will be covered with miasma and a large number of Monsters will occur. Until now, every time, "Saint" with the power to exorcise the devil appeared and saved the country. When Saint did not appear only once in the past, he summoned Saint by ritual.
Saint does not appear again this time, and King and his senior vassals are forced to perform the legendary ritual "Saint Summoning Ritual". Two Japanese, Sei Takanashi and Aira Misono, were summoned, but Kingdom's first Prince Kyle Slantania saw only Aira and treated only she as Saint. Ignored, Sei gets angry and tries to leave the royal palace, but has no choice but to start working as a researcher at the Institute of Medicinal Plants.
Three months after the summoning, the Third Knights of the Kingdom are severely damaged by the Monster subjugation, but the potion made by Sei recovers the leader Albert Hawke and others. Since then, he has continued to interact with Hawke and others, listening to Elizabeth Ashley's request at the library, granting magic at the Court Mage Division, and visiting the Third Knights to hand over the magically granted accessories to the Hawke Captain. I was spending my days.
Seven months after being summoned, Sei learns recovery magic from a book in the castle's library and visits the knights who were injured in another Monster subjugation. At that time, Sei, who could not leave Knight who was seriously injured irreparably, regenerated even his body defect with powerful recovery magic, and will be revered as "Saint" by them.
Immediately after that, he was appraised by Yuri Drewes, the chief of the court mage division who woke up from the coma caused by the reaction of the Saint summoning ceremony, but Sei was higher in level than he, the country's number one mage, and could not be appraised. Upon receiving the report, King Seigfried Slantania apologizes to Sei in a public audience and asks what she wants as a reward. Sei, who doesn't want anything in particular, asks for her forbidden library and formal magical instruction, and she receives magical instruction directly from Yuri.
Nine months after the summon, Sei participates as a recovery worker in the Monster subjugation led by Hawke. However, when the leader is in trouble, golden magical power overflows from her Sei. It swallowed the surrounding Monster and the black swamp that Monster springs up, and instantly erased All. It was nothing but the legendary wide-area purification magic that only Saint can use, "Saint's Technique."
Due to this achievement, Sei is recognized as "Saint" by all the royal palace. but, Prince Kyle, desperate to make Aira Saint, did not believe it and said in a public place, "Sei is not Saint," and was ordered by his father to be reticent.
A year after the summons, Sei, along with Captain Hawke and the Order of the Third Knights, heads for an expedition to subdue Monster to the Klausner territory, known as the Sanctuary of the Yakushi. In this expedition, he realized that "thinking about the leader of Hawke" was the condition for activating Saint's technique, and he became able to activate the technique freely.
