The Story Synopsis

The English version of the manga adaptation authored by Taro Sasakama is endorsed by Alpha Manga offering a peek into the plot of 'Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time'. It centers on Takumi Iruma, a nondescript individual who inadvertently finds himself amongst chosen heroes destined for another world. As an apology for the misadventure, a goddess bequeaths him the privilege to select any skill of his choosing.

Desiring a tranquil, battle-free existence, Takumi opts for an appeasingly tedious creation skill. Surprisingly, his selected skill of "alchemy" bestows upon him immeasurable power to create an array of items, from sacred swords to flying vehicles. This unanticipated acquisition of an extraordinary skill transforms Takumi into an affluent merchant and renders him unbeatable in combat scenarios. The series narrates a captivating adventure tale of the (presumably) most formidable alchemist in another realm.
