Synopsis

Rein, an enchanter, is suddenly expelled from his guild one day. But instead of despairing, he declares, “Now I can do anything!” and begins reclaiming the massive number of enhancement points he once poured into his guildmates’ gear, setting off on a brand-new path as an adventurer.

Gathering around him are people carrying wounds that don’t fade easily: a genius adventurer who shut her heart after her party was slaughtered, a warrior who lost her family, and an assassin raised from childhood to kill. Yet Rein never rejects their pasts or their scars—he accepts them all with bright, straightforward warmth.

The stage is a unique fantasy world where Uzis, slingshots, and even yakuza exist side by side. But in this world, the more people rely on convenient technology, the more their magic weakens, and adventurers grow fragile.

Intelligent, vicious monsters roam freely, while in the underworld, outlaws bare their greed and ambition as schemes and betrayals intertwine. In a world where ideals and justice are easily crushed, adventurers fight on with nothing but their magic and their convictions.

This is the story of those who have lost their place in the world finding a new way to live. Rein and his companions’ wild, free-spirited second life begins now!
