Introduction: "Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?"
Takumi Iruma, a middle-aged office worker, finds himself caught up in a hero-summoning ritual by mistake. Unable to return to his original world, Takumi receives overwhelming divine blessings and protective support from the goddess Nolyn as an apology. In the sword-and-magic fantasy world of Mildgard, he opts for a peaceful, productive career rather than a combat role. Yet, the "alchemy" skill bestowed upon him turns out to be an ultimate cheat, capable of crafting anything from holy swords to flying ships! With his overpowered abilities, Takumi thrives in business and dominates battles.
