Episode 2 Story

While exploring the forest, Takumi befriends and contracts Maple, a spider monster possessing the rare ability to produce Spider Silk of the highest quality. The silk becomes a hit among villagers, and Takumi's unparalleled skills are warmly welcomed. As he integrates further into village life, his daily training causes his levels to skyrocket. Motivated by a desire to deepen his understanding of alchemy, Takumi decides to leave the village of Bord—home to his patron Mildgard—and embark on a journey to the city.

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.

Winner of the "10th AlphaPolis Fantasy Novel Award" Readers' Choice and surpassing 1.2 million copies in circulation, this beloved series, also a successful manga, is finally getting an anime adaptation. The whimsical (or perhaps thrilling?) adventures of the alchemist who never sought power begin!
