For Fans of Overpowered Non-Combatants
The Unaware Atelier Meister
Kurt is a kind-hearted boy that was suddenly kicked out of his powerful adventuring party for being useless. Getting an assessment at the Adventuring Guild, he finds his combat skills are all low rank, and as such, the only jobs he can get are menial labor like mining and repairing castle walls. However, his employers quickly discover his abilities in such work are truly extraordinary.
It turns out that while Kurt doesn’t have any combat skills, every other non-combat skill is of a mythical SSS-rank! While everyone around him becomes aware of how amazing he is, Kurt remains firmly unaware of his talents.
