The Healer Who Was Banished From His Party, Is, in Fact, the Strongest

Despite protests from her guild, martial artist Narsena seeks out Raust, the healer who saved her from monsters as a child, to join her on a quest.

Exploring a labyrinth beneath Mardat City, Raust reflects on past failures, Narsena gains a new power and Raust’s old leader recruits a new healer.

Humbled by defeat, Blades of Lightning leader Margulus admits that Raust is, in fact, a useful asset. But will the healer rejoin his former party?

As Raust and Narsena hunt monsters, Margulus leads a new team into battle against the hydra. But when the battle goes awry, Raust springs into action.

After receiving an apology from fellow adventurers, Raust’s concerns about the monsters' strange behaviour are dismissed by the guild leader Hanzum.

Raust and his new companions return to the labyrinth to battle the Phoenix — but a simple quest goes awry when the creature shows its unexpected power.

With their financial fortunes looking brighter, Narsena suggests that she and Raust buy a house together. But are her reasons practical or emotional?

Raust is outraged when another party sacrifices its youngest member. Complaining about this to Hanzum, however, opens old wounds.

After an earthquake strikes the city of Mardat, unleashing a surge of monsters from the labyrinth below, Raust’s team prepares to defend the city.

Raust convinces his former teacher Ralma to create a magical barrier around the city — and the powerful magician Mist reveals his dark associations.
