Let’s go on a magical adventure with the Hero today too!”The Sparkling Little Mage — Noar Lafiette

Vestaria — A World of Steam and MagicThe continent of Vestaria breathes with the roar of steam engines and the light of magic lamps. Steam trains crisscross the continent, connecting cities, while in the outer villages, goods are still transported by horse-drawn carriages. Some nations establish their authority under the banner of monarchy, while others maintain order through republican councils. This uneven development is what makes Vestaria a living world.

However, the shadow of progress is always accompanied by mysterious fears. These are labyrinths called Dungeons that appear and disappear without warning. Rising from the cracks in the earth, these places hold both endless treasures and death.
The Guild publicly announces the dungeon ranks from F to S based on danger level, but ranks above that are kept in strict secrecy. Rumors circulate among people that 'SS' and 'SSS' exist beyond that.

The Central Adventurer's Guild, established to control chaos, manages all expeditions. Registration, quests, settlements, artifact appraisal, promotion reviews—all regulations are handled by the Guild, which maintains order by classifying adventurers into ranks. Adventurer ranks, like dungeons, range from F to S. Even at Rank C, one can achieve a stable position with no worries about lifelong sustenance, and from Rank B upwards, social status rises to the point where one can converse as an equal with nobles and the ruling class. Rank A are the pioneers of legend, and above them, only a select few in the entire Guild are considered Rank S. Among them, only ten are called ‘Nachtwandler’ and are strictly managed by the Guild’s Supreme Council. They move like shadows, facing the secrets of the dungeons closer than anyone else.

As the rank increases, fewer people see their faces. Their names remain as legends, and their existence becomes myth. But they too eventually disappear into the darkness of the dungeons. And it is said that somewhere in the world, deep beneath the endless abyss, there is a place called the ‘Abyssal Labyrinth’. People believe that the artifact discovered there by a legendary adventurer, the ‘Abyssal Order’, still lies dormant in that deep darkness.

Noar Lafiette — The Sparkling Little MageA young mage girl born in the village of Glovic.
One day, while playfully casting a spell, light bloomed from her fingertips, and the Central Guild selected her as an 'Special Support Apprentice Mage'.
At the age of 20, Noar officially registered as an F-rank adventurer,
and sets out on her journey today with the dream of “I want to adventure with the Hero someday!”

Her magic is still clumsy, but her sense for light and elements is more delicate than anyone else's.
She is an apprentice mage who helps her companions with beginner spells like ‘Light Circle’, ‘Cure Bubble’, and ‘Mini Shield’,
and brightens the world with the optimism and sincerity that emanates from her small body.
