Magical Buffs: The Support Caster is Stronger Than He Realized!

Wim Strauss possesses a rare magical gift: as a granting caster, his spells can dramatically amplify the strength of everyone fighting beside him. Yet in a world that judges a mage by what they can destroy, his talent earns him nothing but scorn. Because his magic cannot be wielded directly in combat, his own party dismisses him as dead weight—someone who lingers safely behind the front lines while the real fighting happens elsewhere. Their contempt eventually boils over, and Wim finds himself unceremoniously thrown out of the group, left to wonder whether his career as an adventurer has come to an end. Just when his future seems bleakest, an unexpected lifeline appears. His childhood friend Heidemarie, now a member of the elite A-rank party Nachtlibelle, manages to arrange an audition for him with her renowned team. She and Wim both know the truth his former companions never understood: support magic is far more than menial backup, and it deserves a place at the heart of any battle. But belief alone won't be enough—he must prove his worth in front of the most demanding adventurers around. Now is the moment for Wim to shatter every prejudice against support mages and show the world that those who empower others can be every bit as powerful as those who fight on the front lines.
