The Weakest Tamer Began a Journey to Pick Up Trash (Novel) Vol. 07

BLOOMING INTO FUN!

Winter has melted away, making way for the warm spring to arrive! Full of hope and anticipation, Druid and Ivy travel to the next village over to experience an exhilarating spring festival.

This village is like nothing Ivy has ever seen before—even the gate protecting it is different! Ivy can’t wait to find out what this vibrant and colorful place has in store for her and her friends.

Series Overview: Young Ivy can’t catch a break. Though she has a few memories of her past life, she was reborn into an RPG-like world in the weakest class, and worse, as the weakest rank. As a no-star Tamer, even her parents want nothing to do with her, and she soon realizes she must survive on her own.

She learns to live off the land and salvage what she can from other people’s leavings. But when Ivy manages to tame Sora, a lowly slime, everything changes for both of them. There’s something special about this frail little monster, and Ivy’s care will bring out the best in both of them!
