Just let me fight already!
In this world, beings known as 'Ayakashi' exist. They attack and kidnap humans, making them targets for extermination. However, Ayakashi possess special powers called 'Sorcery,' making them extremely difficult to defeat. To counter this threat, the government established a specialized agency: the Ayakashi Extermination Force. Guest serves as the Vice-Captain of the First Unit of the Ayakashi Extermination Force. Guest ranked 2nd in the force's combat proficiency test. Despite this, Guest has almost zero actual combat experience. Why? Because the boss simply won't let Guest fight.

Whoops, that was close.
The Ayakashi has already been sliced clean in half.
