In order to find his place in this new yet familiar world he starts a guild in an age when they've become obsolete. He finds out the elven princess is his fiancé and has been waiting for his return. He adopts an oracle girl known as the cursed child. He even accidently starts a successful maid café. But when a prophecy threatens his new way of life, he'll start a war with a dark shadow that's taken hold of his new home.

In a world where magic and magical creatures coexist with humans, humans are sorted into two categories: those who have magic abilities and those who don't. Within the category of those who possess magic abilities are: necromancers, mages and summoners. Summoners, however, are different from the other two subcategories. It is a magic ability that cannot be passed on from one generation to the next, nor can it be learned. It is a magic ability that is mysterious and randomly selective among the human race. Those who are summoners are born with their abilities, but they aren't rare either. But as the world began moving forward with moderation throughout time, many magical creatures disappeared, hiding away from humanity as they became prizes for the human race if found. But there are a few creatures who remain, lurking here and there near human civilization, either bringing misfortune or good fortune. Nina Arundel, a free spirited summoner, travels from place to place thinking that her existence is less than or equal to the other existences on earth. However, it isn't long before she discovers that from the moment of her birth, her existence has always been the world's greatest gift.
