Synopsis
In a world whose inhabitants find their destinies dictated by the Divine Blessings they receive upon birth, Gideon Ragnason was a member of the Hero's Party, a powerful group led by his sister Ruti destined to save the world from evil. His Blessing gave him the common ability to survive any terrain, and he proves that additional skills can go beyond the limit. That is, until one day, Ares, the Party's second-in-command, considers him a dead weight to the party members and banishes him from the group. Gideon heeds Ares' words and leaves without telling Ruti.
Hoping to live an easy life on the frontier, Gideon moves to a borderland town and opens an apothecary, changing his name to Red. However, keeping his former status a secret may not be as simple as he thinks, especially when Rit, a beautiful young adventurer and his previous crush, shows up and asks to move in with him!
Characters
- Red (レッド, Reddo) / Gideon Ragnason (ギディーオン・ラグナソン, Gidīon Ragunason)
- Voiced by: Yūichirō Umehara (Drama CD),[2] Ryōta Suzuki (anime)[3] (Japanese); Aaron Campbell[4] (English)
- Red is an apothecary residing in the town of Zoltan. His real name is Gideon Ragnason, formerly known as a knight and member of The Hero's Party, who was banished from the group for "being a liability". His Divine Blessing is "Guide", which gives him the ability to survive in any terrain and is important for his knowledge of herbs. To be more useful to his party members, he has learned a number of additional skills beyond the limits of his Blessing; in times of need, he proves to be a skilled combatant, tactician, and leader. Reserved and humble, but with a noble heart, he was much beloved by most of his party, and his leaving has caused much resentment against Ares, who facilitated his resignation. He runs his apothecary shop in Zoltan with his beautiful wife, Rit, who is a former adventurer and princess of Loggervia, whom he fell in love with at first sight, and only grew closer to her. During Season 2, he is now living with most of his old friends including his sister Ruti.
- Rit (リット, Ritto) / Rizlet of Loggervia (リーズリット・オブ・ロガーヴィア, Rīzuritto obu Rogāvia)
- Voiced by: Yumiri Hanamori (Drama CD),[2] Kanon Takao (anime)[3] (Japanese); Dani Chambers[4] (English)
- Rit is a beautiful young B-ranked adventurer and Red's wife, who resides with Red in his home beside the apothecary shop he runs. She is the princess of the Duchy of Loggervia, a military power. She actually came to live with Red both to escape a power struggle within her family, and because she has developed a crush on him while they worked together for a time before his retirement. Her Divine Blessing is "Spirit Scout". Her weapons of choice are two miniature shotels, one on each hip in custom scabbards.
- Ruti Ragnason (ルーティ・ラグナソン, Rūti Ragunason)
- Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu (Drama CD),[2] Naomi Ōzora (anime)[3] (Japanese); Tia Ballard[4] (English)
- Ruti is a powerful but emotionless girl and Red's younger sister, who happens to be the Hero. The Party she leads is the major thorn in the side of The Demon Lord's Army. Her Hero's Blessing bestows her with incredible resistance to physical discomforts; however, it also makes her indifferent to emotional extremes. Due to this, her love for her brother is Ruti's most important anchor, and she misses him terribly after Ares' scheming drove him away. As a result, she begins fighting her Blessing in order to be reunited with Gideon. She eventually develops a new Blessing called "New Truth", which has the ability to control and dominate other Blessings; eliminating her Hero Blessing's negative effects and giving Ruti her self back. While Ruti becomes close friends with Rit, and genuinely likes and accepts her as her sister-in-law, she has an extreme brother complex for Red. After deciding to abandon her role as "The Hero", Ruti and Tisse have started an herb farm in Zoltan, that will eventually supply Red and Rit's apothecary, as well as sell to others in the area. Despite wanting to lead a quiet life in Zoltan, and hide her former Hero status, Ruti often demonstrates her OP abilities while performing simple tasks, much to Tisse's chagrin.
- Yarandrala (ヤランドララ, Yarandorara)
- Voiced by: Sora Amamiya[3] (Japanese); Alexis Tipton[4] (English)
- Yarandrala is a former comrade of Red's who is still on good terms with him. She is a beautiful high elf with the Divine Blessing of "Forest Speaker", which allows her to talk to and control plants. She was the first to leave the Hero's Party in outrage over Ares' scheme driving Red away. Initially, a jealous Rit mistakes Yarandrala for Red's lover when she sees them hugging each other during their reunion. However, as the girls become more friendly, Yarandrala tells Rit that she only ever saw Red as a close friend, not as a lover, and encourages Rit to accept her true feelings for Red and confess to him. During Season 2, she has moved to Zoltan after reuniting with Rit and Red.
- Ares Srowa (アレス・スロワ, Aresu Surowa)
- Voiced by: Taku Yashiro[3] (Japanese); Brandon McInnis[4] (English)
- Ares is a psychotic mage with the Divine Blessing of "Wise Man". His duty is being the second-in-command of The Hero's Party, but develops a dangerous obsession with Ruti early on. He is responsible for banishing Gideon/Red from the party because he is obsessively jealous of Gideon's personal closeness to Ruti. The entire reason Ares was even in the party was the delusional plan to marry Ruti once she won, in order to gain noble status. When Ruti leaves to find Red, he does all he can to stop her while slowly losing his sanity and refusing to acknowledge his own flaws. In the end, he betrays the Heroes’ Party and aligns with a demon to kill Red, but their fight ends with his name tarnished and his death at Red's hands.

Red, an apothecary residing in the frontier town of Zoltan, is popular but keeps his past hidden. He was formerly Gideon, brother to the current Hero, his sister Ruti, and a member of her Hero's Party. Because of his inability to improve his combat skills, Ares, the sub-leader, banished Gideon for being a liability. Being a knight of Bahamut, it will be a disgrace if he returns to his order, so Ares allows him to leave all the items that he got from the party, simply disappear and start a new life. Red meets Albert, an adventurer seeking to defeat a dangerous Owlbear that appeared nearby and requiring a guide through the forest. Hoping to keep his past and abilities hidden, Red refuses. Red's young friend, Tanta, is afflicted by an illness that will render him blind. Risking punishment from the adventurer's guild, Red enters the closed-off forest to gather medicinal plants needed to cure him. Albert sets the forest aflame to drive the Owlbear out and Red is forced to secretly kill it. Albert is suspicious but claims he killed the Owlbear to collect the reward. Tanta is saved, and Gonz, his carpenter uncle, builds Red his own house and apothecary, allowing Red to start the quiet life he desires. | |||||||

She fled to Zoltan to escape a power struggle within her family and intends to live with Red, which he reluctantly accepts, though he still harbors feelings for her. As Rit settles in with Red, his former Hero Party acquire a new recruit named Tisse Garland, gifted with the Divine Blessing of The Assassin. This episode includes flashbacks of Red and Rit's past. The Hero's party affiliated themselves with the Duchy of Loggervia. Rit was Loggervia's princess and a brash B-Rank adventurer who claimed the Duchy didn't need the Hero. Rit had suggested to her master, the Duke of Loggervia, that she raid the food stores of the Demon Lord's Army. During the failed raid Rit discovered her "master" was dead and had been impersonated by Shisandan, a general of the Demon Lord's Army. She was nearly killed but was saved by Gideon while Ruti slew Shisandan. Traumatised by the death of her master, Rit became depressed until Gideon - who had fallen in love with her - renewed her will to fight and eventually defeat the Demon Lord's Army. It was shortly afterwards that Gideon was banished by Ares and settled in Zoltan as Red the apothecary. | |||||||

After shopping for a bed for Rit she and Red successfully have a painkiller Red concocted approved for sale. It is angrily refused at first by Dan, the one in charge of approvals, because of a similar medicine with addictive properties he approved months earlier, and he was blamed for its impact. Rit uses her connections to get their painkiller approved. To accompany this new product, the two then make and sell a health supplement/cold and fever remedy in the form of a cookie (to eliminate the bitter taste which repulses most customers) which sells out in hours. Meanwhile, Danan becomes sick of Ares, as their mission to locate the Demon Lord's weapon, with help from the Desert People, has failed. Ares is furious at the suggestion they only failed due to his poor leadership and Red's absence. Knowing that Ares really only banished Red out of envy, Danan, with the approval of Ruti, leaves to find Red. This episode also explains the Blessing Skill System, which can only be leveled up by killing another sentient living being with a Blessing Skill. Blessings can also affect personality, for example having a combat Skill can actually make people more prone to violent behavior. | |||||||

Many are shocked that Rit, Zoltan's most formidable adventurer, is working and living with Red. Rit has a craving for mead and leaves to buy some. Albert visits the store and accuses Red of killing the Owl-Bear. Red denies any involvement, provoking Albert to attack him, but is foiled by Rit's return. Albert is shocked at Rit working in Red's store, as well as Red's speed, moving across the room to catch the mead Rit dropped before it could hit the floor. Red and Rit visit Zeff's sauna and notice a lack of customers due to a competing bath-house built by nobles that includes a restaurant and massage parlor. Zeff is certain he will go out of business, prompting Nao to scold his defeatist attitude. Red suggests using a potpourri of medicinal herbs in the sauna itself to tempt customers back. Later, Rit revealed the reason for her wanting mead: it reminded her of a tradition in Loggervia about newly married couples drinking mead together.

Bui is revealed to be responsible for the recent magic drainage in the area through the use of an enchanted crystal heart. Ruti tries to settle in Zoltan, but her formidable personality hampers her attempts at inconspicuousness.

Meanwhile, Ares demolishes Red's shop in his obsessive jealousy of Red. Red travels to the elven ruins (actually an abandoned base of a more advanced, long-gone civilization), where he meets Ruti and Godwin and encourages his sister to live her life as she wants, not as her Blessing dictates. As they later discuss the effects of Devil's Blessing, Ruti notes that an unprecedented Blessing Without Name seems to have emerged in her.

Ares is then met by Bui, an Asura demon; Bui reveals that the ruins shelter an artefact left behind by the first Hero, which Ares could use to win Ruti back to his side.

When Red's group reaches them, the two attack, attempting to kill Red and use the Sacred Swords to sway Ruti back to her role as the Hero. Theodora appears and attacks Ruti to steer her back onto the Hero's path. Rit protests against this, pointing out that the one carrying the Hero's Blessing is not the world's sole savior, but it is really the will of the people that makes somebody - anybody - a hero. Red, Ruti, Rit, Tisse and Godwin rise against their enemies; Red kills Ares, but Shisandan tricks Ruti into touching one of the Sacred Blades, subjecting her to her Blessing's compulsions and then proceeds to cut Shisandan into pieces, killing him.

In the aftermath, Ruti and Tisse relocate to Zoltan, where Ruti has been bestowed with a new Blessing which suppresses her previous Hero's Blessing. Red now fully accepts Rit as his wife, and they consummate their relationship. His life in Zoltan returns to normal, except for the occasional emergency which Ruti chooses to resolve. And somewhere in the wilderness, Yarandrala encounters Godwin, who tells her about Red and Ruti's whereabouts, prompting her to rejoin them in Zoltan. |
