In the age of Universal Awakening on the Azure Sphere, a myriad of races and gods coexist. 
Devils, dark gods, and monsters descend upon the mortal realm, only to be met by the Awakened.
Howard, during his Awakening Ritual, discovers dual talents— F-rank Mana Recovery, and the supreme talent: Supreme Synthesis. 
He keeps a low profile, hiding as a 'common magus.'
Through countless acts of synthesis, he forges supreme artifacts, supreme skills, and supreme classes! 
Fireball synthesis... Ding! Synthesis successful, attaining D-rank skill— Fire Serpent! 
Fire Serpent synthesis... Ding! Synthesis successful, attaining B-rank skill— Fire Python! 
Fire Python synthesis... Ding! Synthesis successful, attaining S-rank skill— Dragonfire!
When devils invade and dark gods descend, they are left slack-jawed by the Azure Sphere before them. 
"No, this is a trap... a trap disguised as a mere cupcake!"

"Only realizing it now? It's oo late!" Lanas Bayley quirked an eyebrow, bursting into triumphant laughter.

Hearing this, Howard's expression shifted subtly, just as the whizzing arrow struck him.

Thankfully, Howard's MP shield was active. A radiant glow erupted, deflecting the arrow effortlessly.

But the flames in the sky began to rage uncontrollably!

"Swift action, we must end this within three minutes!" Howard cried out, brandishing his Soul Nurturer.

Yet, he unleashed just one skill -- Multiple Wind Blade!

Silvery wind blades materialized, seeming chaotic but striking with deadly precision towards every student except Lanas.

While the principle of 'capture the leader to defeat the group' held true, Howard was putting on a performance and couldn't afford to take down Lanas Bayley.

Did they think Howard, with his myriad of SS-level skills, would fear being surrounded?
