The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

Ken Usato is just walking home with two classmates when the three of them are dragged into another world by a summoning circle. The kingdom only wanted the other two, but Usato came along by accident, and that mistake changes everything once their abilities are tested. His classmates are treated like proper heroes, while Usato is labeled a healer, a rare talent that people dismiss as weak and unglamorous. Then Rose, the captain of the kingdom’s Rescue Team, claims him as her trainee and pushes him into brutal conditioning meant to keep a frontline healer alive when everything goes wrong. Usato learns that healing is not only about closing wounds after the fact, it is also about surviving long enough to reach the injured, carrying them out, and refusing to panic when the battlefield turns chaotic. As the threat of a new invasion hangs over the kingdom, Usato gets pulled into missions where quick judgment matters as much as magic, and he starts bending his gift in unexpected ways to protect allies who are seconds away from dying.
