In a world where gates suddenly appeared, Espers were like a national power. South Korea's representative S-Class Esper, Cha Jae-U, had a problem: after he gained his powers, he couldn't find a guide who had a high match rate with him.

"Um... I already did today's amount this morning..."

"That's the best I can do..." 

Afterward, Hae-Yul lived in one house with Cha Jae-U and a particle-sized amount of mana. He ended up guiding him once a day, but...
