Narrado por: Dillon Sickels

We’re off to the Holy City!

Luciel is moving up in the world and people, both good and bad, powerful and weak, have begun to take notice of this peculiar young man. Bent on becoming the best healer he can be in order to aid the many people who can’t afford treatment from the price-gouging clinics, he accepts his new position with trepidation, heading straight for the source of the infamous guild’s corruption. But something is up with the Church—a labyrinth of monsters lurks beneath the floor of the healers’ headquarters, and a number of players are moving in the shadows as Luciel desperately continues to cling to his hope of mundane normalcy.

Will he succeed in finding comfort in his new life abroad? Will his talents lead him to some sense of stability? Or will he find himself getting far more than he bargained for? New faces, new trials, and new offensive nicknames await the Masochist Healer as his journey continues!

I love it in spite of its flaws

this is the second installment in the series, and that's since I have a soft spot for the world and setting I loved it. I won't say that it's the best written novel that there aren't plot holes or issues or that the dialogue is always great but, the story is fun the protagonist is easy to root for, and this book gets further into the lore than the first one did. I think they're honest critiques that can be made, such as the one in the other review that exist at this time, but if you like isekai light novels this one is pretty good in my opinion. I might be easy to please in this aspect cuz I love the genre, but I would still write this series better than many that I've read and seen.

Only Saved by the Anime Adaptation

Had I not already seen the anime adaptation, this would have been terrible, mostly because of the atrocious narrator. This guy received his script, read his lines like he was reading the dictionary or the phone book, and then called it a day. No emotion, no voicing, no enthusiasm, no talent. Terrible.

Apart from that, what the hell was up with the six months of fighting one boss monster? SIX MONTHS?!? I had thought this was a symptom of a bad anime adaptation, but it seems it was actually written like this. Terrible writing, along with a lot of the awkward dialogue, but some of that was due to being lost in translation.

It may sound like I hate this, but I don't. It's more like I see the potential in it so I'm more disappointed in it than anything. It will be interesting to see if the next book can hold my interest as it will be new material for me.I hope they switch narrators by then.
