A mentor who left without a word, crystal disease worsened by the blast, and a sentence banishing him to an unknown magic academy…

What rouses him from unconsciousness is the whisper of a mermaid in his dreams.

This is the first time the mermaid Nayalian has encountered an awake traveler in the dream realm. Thus begins an adventure together that will last a lifetime.
