Ethan Yagami, the lazy, gentle, and carefree young master of a powerful noble family, only wants to enjoy life and relax.

But on the day of his awakening ceremony, the most cliché thing imaginable happens to him…

[Ding! The System is bonding to you.]
[Bonding successful! Congratulations, Host! You have awakened: The Divine Benevolence System.]
[Please, Host, give more and be more benevolent.]
[Because the more you give, the more you shall receive.]

Ethan blinks.

“…So I’m basically a Saint now?”

With a smile as lazy as ever, Ethan realizes his path to power isn’t through grinding or killing monsters—it’s through giving things away.

Money? Skills? Weapons? Even trash? As long as he gives selflessly, the rewards return a thousandfold.

And so, while the world expects a humble philanthropist, Ethan casually breaks the balance of power, amassing wealth, strength, and influence—all while doing as little work as possible.

Because, after all…

Why struggle when generosity makes you overpowered?

"Please, Savior, help my people. Grant me the strength to battle these wretched monsters!"

The king—Lucius II of Castria—knelt before Ethan, his head bowed low.

The entire royal court followed suit. Their expressions were tight with pain, fists clenched in frustration. It was humiliating to see their king in this position, to rely on a stranger for salvation. But what choice did they have?

Ethan scanned the room. The strongest among them was the king himself—a mere B-rank. The rest? A mix of D-ranks, a few C-ranks, and some unfortunate E-ranks like himself.

But unlike them, he was built differently.

"Your Majesty, what type of monsters are we dealing with?" Ethan asked, keeping his tone polite.

Lucius lifted his head, eyes glinting with desperate hope. "They are many—goblins, orcs, trolls, wolves. And they are working together."
