Premise
[edit]Taking place after a long war between humans and monsters ended, the story focuses on the human Dr. Glenn Litbeit and his lamia assistant, Saphentite "Sapphee" Neikes, as they run a clinic in the city of Lindworm, which is home to many species of monsters living alongside humans.
Characters
[edit]- Glenn Litbeit (グレン・リトバイト, Guren Ritobaito)
- Voiced by: Shun'ichi Toki[3] (Japanese); Griffin Puatu[4] (English)
- Glenn is a human male from a merchant family from the far east, who specialized in medicines during the war. He strives to become a doctor for the monster population of the city of Lindworm. His calm demeanor and quick mind and focus allow him to treat everyone from a harpy girl to an immortal dragon; this tends to make him have a cadre of girls vying for his affection, much to the annoyance of Sapphee. It is implied he reciprocates Sapphee's affections, but cannot act on it until his clinic is paid off. He has some oni blood in his lineage, which results in him having a higher body temperature than nornal, allowing him to dress like it is summer even in the cold mountains.
- Saphentite Neikes (サーフェンティット・ネイクス, Sāfentitto Neikusu)
- Voiced by: Saori Ōnishi[3] (Japanese); Cristina Vee[4] (English)
- Glenn's childhood friend and assistant in the clinic who goes by the nickname of "Sapphee". She organizes the clinic and monitors the fairies that assist them. She is a rare albino lamia, so she has to wear a special outfit whenever she goes out into the sunlight. Her family were also merchants during the war, allying with the Litbeit family to aid the wounded and ensure medicine production on both sides. She was sent to the Litbeits as a political hostage, where she met Glenn and fell in love with him; however, her family are also well known assassins, and if the Litbeits were to betray them she was set to kill Glenn's family. She also has a low tolerance for alcohol.
- Tisalia Scythia (ティサリア・スキュテイアー, Tisaria Sukyuteiā)
- Voiced by: Sarah Emi Bridcutt[5] (Japanese); Julia McIlvaine[4] (English)
- A centaur who is the sole heiress of Scythia Transportation. A high ranked arena fighter, she was on a losing streak until Glenn realized her problem and was able to help her by giving her horseshoes. She is very open about her infatuation for Glenn and is not afraid to say so in public, mostly to annoy Sapphee, whom she considers a friend and romantic rival.
- Lulala Heine (ルララ・ハイネ, Rurara Haine)
- Voiced by: Yukiyo Fujii[5] (Japanese); Ryan Bartley[4] (English)
- A mermaid who sings at the Merrow Waterways in order to provide financial support for her family.

She is hundreds of years old, yet has the body of a young girl. She dresses head to toe in robes and a veil so few have seen her face, but they are used to hide a parasitic condition. Due to said condition she rarely speaks above a whisper, so her words are relayed by Kunai (in a very loud tone).
- Kunai Zenow (苦無・ゼナウ)
- Voiced by: Maki Kawase[7] (Japanese); Lizzie Freeman[8] (English)
- Lady Skadi's personal assistant and bodyguard. A rare flesh golem from the east, she was taken in by Skadi and became entirely devoted to her, and takes her job seriously. However, due to her nature, she has been known to lose parts if she is damaged. Due to how she was created, she is not fond of doctors and she can hear the voices of those whose body parts she is created from. While she is very proud of her warrior nature, her heart is that of a pure maiden, and she develops feelings for Glenn after he helps repair her during a mission. Now she goes to him whenever she needs to replace her stitches or parts, because as he helps her the voices are a lot quieter.
- Illy (イリィ, Irii)
- Voiced by: Sayumi Suzushiro[7] (Japanese); Kira Buckland[9] (English)

- Voiced by: Miho Okasaki[7] (Japanese); Giselle Fernandez (English)

After conducting an examination on a female minotaur, which reveals her pregnancy, Glenn is asked by his mentor Dr. Cthulhy Squele, a Scylla, to conduct physical exams on fighters at the city arena. One of the fighters is Tisalia Scythia, a centaur who is the sole heiress of Scythia Transportation. During the examination, she expresses a wish to marry someone like Glenn, which makes Sapphee jealous. Tisalia has not won a battle in over a month, but Glenn finds nothing medically wrong with her. After a while, he finally realizes her belief that her body is already perfect meant she never allowed herself to be fitted with steel shoes and her hooves have worn unevenly, unbalancing her. Despite her protests, Glenn has new shoes fitted and she starts winning battles again. Glenn wonders if Cthulhy was testing how he would deal with a difficult patient. | |||

A mermaid singer, Lulala Heines, offers to let Glenn and Sapphee purchase a song, but despite her obvious skill, she is unable to finish. Glenn diagnoses Lulala with inflamed gills from not spending enough time in the water. Lulala claims she will soon earn a salary singing at the Central Council Hall, but in the meantime must sing on the Waterways to support her mother and siblings. A human child falls into the water and Lulala manages to save him. However, with her gills inflamed, she accidentally inhales water into her lungs and begins to drown. Glenn manages to save her by forcing air into her lungs via a kiss so her gills can expel the inhaled water. After Glenn provides medicine for Lulala's gills, she starts singing full-time at the Council Hall and develops a crush on him. | |||

Sometime in the evening, a woman is chasing a bandit when she is ambushed. The next day, after Glenn and Sapphee finish treating a slime girl, they are approached by Lady Skadi and her bodyguard, Kunai Zenow. Skadi asks if they can help locate and reattach Kunai's right arm. She then reveals that Kunai is a flesh golem. Once Skadi leaves, Kunai refuses Glenn's help due to her hatred of doctors and she decides to look for her arm on her own. Outside, she notices another bandit and she follows them. Later, Glenn is out looking for Kunai's arm when he runs into Tisalia, who finds Kunai's leg. Examining the leg, Glenn notices the stitches are badly degraded. He then heads further into town where he runs into Lulala, who has Kunai's arm. Using the body parts to locate Kunai, Glenn reattaches them, despite her protests. Meanwhile, at the clinic, Sapphee has a conversation with her friend Arahnia Taranterra Arachnida. After Glenn is finished, Kunai thanks him. It is later revealed the bandits were watching. When Glenn returns to the clinic, Sapphee tells him she believes that she is pregnant. | |||

Sapphee reveals that she was actually hiding an abandoned harpy egg. Just then, several bandits attack the clinic. When they run into Kunai, she explains the bandits are slavers. They join Skadi and Lulala on the Waterways where they are attacked by archers. Fortunately, Tisalia was nearby and she fights them. At the hideout, one of the harpies has an impacted egg from stress. While Skadi and Sapphee fight the bandits, Sapphee regrets hiding from Glenn that she has an incurable illness, and that her family specializes in assassination. As children, she was actually under orders to assassinate Glenn's family if the business deal fell through. During the battle, Sapphee is poisoned and passes out. When she awakens, Glenn explains the slavers were arrested and the harpy laid her egg safely. Sapphee decides to admit the truth to Glenn, who reveals he actually knew already. Sapphee is so happy she attempts to seduce him, only to pass out again. Glenn agrees to hold her tail until she sleeps, like when they were children. Sapphee hints that the incurable illness she suffers from might just be love. | |||

Glenn hires Tisalia to transport them to the harpy village for the harpies' medical checks. A rockslide injures Kay, one of Tisalia's attendants, so she is flown to the village by the harpies where Glenn diagnoses her with a sprain. Lorna, Kay's childhood friend, becomes extremely distracted without Kay and almost ruins Tisalia's negotiations to employ the harpies as air couriers. Worried, Tisalia asks Glenn to examine Lorna. Glenn struggles to know where to start as Lorna has a psychological issue. Sapphee suggests that since Lorna grew up higher strung and more sensitive than Tisalia and Kay, she may feel useless without someone in charge. Glenn makes the strange decision to take all control away from Lorna, outfitting her with a blindfold and reins. Surprisingly, Lorna immediately feels better as she is more able to focus on her job, though Glenn privately thinks Lorna might simply enjoy being tied up. As thanks, Kay and Lorna try to seduce Glenn together, reasoning that if they sleep together, Tisalia would probably insist Glenn take responsibility by marrying her. Glenn is quick to refuse, but Kay and Lorna still hope Glenn becomes their master as well one day. | |||

Afterwards, Tisalia reveals to Glenn and Sapphee that she won the fight. When she hands Glenn a feather Illy lost during the fight, he asks Sapphee and Tisalia if they can help with something. The following day, they gather all the feathers they can find. Later that night, Illy reminisces when she used to be able to fly. When they catch up with her, Glenn reveals the reason she is molting is she is getting her adult feathers and she has phoenix blood in her. In Lindworm, it is revealed Cthulhy already knew this. Sometime later, an elated Illy shows off her new wings and she is able to fly again. When one of her new feathers falls into Glenn's hand, he notes that it is hot, wondering if Illy may be closer to the phoenix than he first thought.

At the village, a very excited Arahnia meets Illy. Meanwhile, Sapphee and Tisalia get into an argument over Arahnia. The following day, Sapphee, Kay, and Lorna are at the hot springs. While this is happening, Arahnia visits Glenn. Afterwards, she asks him to join her where she catches him in a trap. She wants to seduce him so she can be closer to Sapphee. However, Tisalia arrives to stop her. Arahnia states she and Tisalia are the same in terms of what they want. Just as they are about to fight each other, Sapphee shows up. She tells them Glenn has no time for courtship. Later that night, Sapphee tells Glenn she loves him. They are then interrupted when they hear tremors caused by a gigas. | |||

Tisalia takes charge and gets everyone to work together to evacuate the village, sends Illy to Lindworm to speak with Lady Skadi, and then sneaks off to face the giant alone. However, she is stopped by Sapphee and Glenn, who realized she was not with the group. Just then, the giant, Dione Nephilim, appears, asking to see Glenn. Meanwhile, in Lindworm, Skadi tells a panicked Illy about her. Glenn realizes Dione has a head cold and offers her medicine and asks Arahnia to make her some new warmer clothes, while the harpies make friends with her, especially Illy. The group head back to Lindworm to reopen the clinic, where Glenn asks Tisalia out to dinner. During the dinner, Tisalia finds Sapphee spying on them and both declare that they will not lose in the battle for Glenn's heart.

Once he is inside Skadi's room, Glenn hears Skadi's voice for the first time and finds she has the appearance of a young girl. Skadi reluctantly agrees to be examined and reveals a tumor on her chest that has begun infiltrating her veins and altering her blood flow. She believes it is karma for her dragon ancestors leaving the realm of Gods and for her actions during the Great War. Glenn asks Cthulhy's permission to perform a complicated surgery and she agrees after hearing his heartfelt motivations, but worries Skadi will still need convincing and they require at least one more surgeon. Glenn asks Arahnia for her sewing skills to help repair the damaged veins. Arahnia refuses at first but relents after realizing she would get to wear a nurse's uniform like Sapphee.

Later, Arahnia is at the clinic where she practices for the surgery with Kunai. Cthulhy and Glenn go to check on the new tools. Memé is in the drafting room trying to review the needles when the spinning wheel catches her eye. The next day, Illy rushes to the clinic to get Glenn as Memé has passed out. Glenn takes her to the clinic and asks her what she was doing, where he figures she suffered from exhaustion and vertigo.

Rather than turn her in to the authorities, Sapphee and Tisalia have a heartfelt conversation with a surprised Arahnia. They also reveal to Arahnia that she has fallen in love with Glenn. Sometime later, Glenn catches up with Skadi where she explains why she refuses to have the surgery. However, when Glenn tells her that she deserves to live a happy life, Skadi decides to have the surgery after all.

At the harpy village, Dione helps the harpies. When Glenn returns, he has Tisalia, Kay, and Lorna transport the barrels for them. At the clinic, Arahnia teases Sapphee about Glenn when Illy and her friends show up. They give Sapphee and Arahnia some food from their village and the mountains. Just then, Glenn arrives and he is mobbed by the girls. Glenn reveals that on his way home, everyone kept giving him food. Later that night, a party takes place in the city. |
