THE SUNKEN RUINS OF MELUSINE

After a touching mother-daughter reunion in the city of Erisen, Hajime and his party resolve to take on the fourth Great Labyrinth, the underwater ruins of Melusine. Every labyrinth presents unique dangers, and this one summons up visions of the past to test those who dare to enter. Separated from the rest of their comrades, Kaori and Hajime will be challenged like never before. Will their relationship change in the fires of hardship?

Series Overview: Seventeen-year-old Hajime Nagumo is your average, everyday otaku. However, his simple life of pulling all-nighters and sleeping in school is suddenly turned upside down when he, along with the rest of his class, is summoned to a fantasy world!

While the rest of his class are blessed with godlike powers and tasked with saving the human race from extinction, Hajime’s job, a Synergist, only has a single transmutation skill. Will he be able to survive in this dangerous world of monsters and demons with only a glorified blacksmith’s level of strength?
