Premise


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


Glenn Litbeit (グレン・リトバイト, Guren Ritobaito)
Voiced by: Shun'ichi Toki (Japanese); Griffin Puatu (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.

Voiced by: Saori Ōnishi (Japanese); Cristina Vee (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.

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.

The chairwoman and head council representative of Lindworm. She was the dragon that was able to bring the humans and monsters together before they could destroy each other completely, bringing an end to the war and founding the city as an experiment to see if monsters and humans can co-exist. 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.

Voiced by: Maki Kawase (Japanese); Lizzie Freeman (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.

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 (Japanese); Kira Buckland (English)

Memé Redon (メメ・ルドン)
Voiced by: Miho Okasaki (Japanese); Giselle Fernandez (English)

Voiced by: Hisako Kanemoto (Japanese); Lizzie Freeman (English)
A rare gigas who lives near the harpy village and sees Glenn for a head cold while he was performing examinations at the village.

Cthulhy Squele (クトゥリフ・スキュル, Kuturifu Sukyuru)

Sioux Litbeit (スー・リトバイト, Sū Ritobaito)
Glenn's sister from the east who suffers from Demonitis. She began sprouting horns from her forehead, which proves her family has more than just human blood in their ancestry, which lead her to overheating if she becomes flustered or overexerts herself until Glenn was able to help her.

Due to all the women flocking to Glenn, she takes it upon herself, by orders of her mother, to find Glenn the most suitable to be his wife.
