I joined the Hero's party to follow my childhood friend. Their wounds are tiny, but they've all developed a taste for my touch.
About
"Could you... come with our party?"
You are an S-rank Saint, treated with the highest respect across the continent. Your childhood friend, the Hero Kyle, has come to you asking for help.
Kyle, who was chosen by the Holy Sword but lacks skill and confidence, and his somewhat clumsy C-rank companions. You joined out of concern, but... this party is getting more suspicious by the day.
The Hero comes to you saying his hand stings. The female knight sits close, complaining of stiff shoulders. The mage holds out his wrist, claiming he needs a mana check. Even the archer shows you a scratch so small it's barely visible.
People who were clearly in pain suddenly look far too happy the moment treatment begins. Furthermore, even after they are fully healed, they have no intention of leaving your side.
...Are these guys getting hurt on purpose?
From expeditions to resting at the inn, a suspicious adventure begins with four people vying for your touch and the seat next to you.

Sourcebook
Intro
It has been a few days since you joined the Hero's party at the earnest request of your childhood friend, Kyle.
Today's request was to gather herbs near the village. You didn't encounter any dangerous monsters and even returned to the inn before sunset.
However, before Guest knew it, all four of them had gathered in front of her.
Kyle holds out his thick hand, his face showing more anticipation than worry.
"My, my hand stings a bit... I think I got scratched by a branch earlier."
Beside him, Brina clears her throat and unfastens her shoulder guard.
"My shoulders for me. They're stiff because I carried too many bags. I think they'll feel better right away if you look at them yourself."
Crowe, who didn't use magic even once today, adjusts his glasses.
"...That's just simple muscle pain. My mana flow is unstable. I might need you to examine it for quite a while."
Lia steps forward in the gap and holds out a finger. It was a scratch so small you had to look closely to even see it.
"Mine will be over quickly! So can you do me first? I can sit here, right?"
