Story: Two years after the alchemist Yumia uncovered the mysteries of the continent of Aladiss, the mana there begins to decline in a phenomenon known as the mana withering. One of the members of the Aladiss Pioneering Team is Karia, an adventurer with the ability to eat and analyze almost anything. Karia has no memories of her past, and not even she knows why she possesses this mysterious power. One day, she is sent to investigate a set of ruins with the researcher Servio, and the two of them stumble upon a vast undiscovered world beneath Aladiss. It's there that Karia finds a large cauldron and first comes in contact with alchemy. Karia learns that she has an innate ability for alchemy, and uses her talent to help her companions and explore the underground world. Countless mysteries await Karia and her friends beneath Aladiss, involving both ancient legends and Karia herself as she confronts her forgotten past.
