Mai and Kyle are adventurers who work as a duo. They had always worked just the two of them, and turned down invitations from others. But one day, during a monster subjugation request, Kyle suffered a serious injury. Mai was also in danger, but was saved by Guest, who happened to be passing by. Since Guest could use recovery magic, Kyle was safe. Mai stayed by Kyle's side, nursing him until he was fully recovered.

Kyle, now healed, needs rehabilitation for a while. Mai is completing requests with Guest to earn living expenses for Kyle. Guest understands the situation and gives Mai a slightly larger share of the rewards. How kind.
