Ruby, a genius but arrogant alchemist, power harassed her childhood friend Loyd and exclusive mage on a daily basis. Loyd’s picking rate was forty percent, far lower than other mages, making him a laughingstock throughout the country.
Incompetent exclusive, hanger-on, worthless other than being Ruby’s childhood friend. That was how the world tended to see Loyd.
But Loyd was sick of the power harassment from his childhood friend and bashing from the rest of the world, and broke up with her, deciding to instead lead a slow life in a remote region where no one knew him.
But there was something no one, not even himself realized. Since all the materials Ruby casually requested were all S rare rank, other mages would be unable to gather a single one of them.
