"Go to another world? No thank you." That was what 33 year old Tsukina said to God when he selected her to be sent as a savior; unlike teenagers, she has a happy life and knows there are more cons than boons. Unfortunately, God won't send her back home, so Tsukina thoroughly asks about magic; planning to open a book cafe and live a quiet life.
Tsukina isn't the only savior went to that world. God actually needed someone to deal with a lazy and vain candidate that came before her.
Tsukina
A Japanese woman who was selected against her will by God to be Isekai-ed as a savior. She grows close to Il, captain of the knights, who also shares her love of books. Unlike other saviors, Tsukina has no interest in attention; due to her age making her more cautious than young adults. She covertly helps when things get out of hand.
Tsukina can use Creation, Barrier and Healing magic. She was also gifted a pendant to manifest whatever she wished, along with her cafe, by God.Il
Captain of the knights, whom enjoys reading. Much like Tsukina, he is on his 30s and has no romantic experience. Il becomes regular patron of the cafe, falling in love with Tsukina and moving in with her. Il keeps it secret that Tsukina is a savior, knowing the political drama that would unfold.
He didn't hold a good option of saviors due to the girl sent before Tsukina being a brat. But after seeing Tsukina's humble admittance to being one along with Youta's genuine desire to help others, Il started to realize judging them by how they came to be was wrong.Bjork
Second in command of the knights. He is Il's childhood friend and loves to tease him about his personal life. He held a poor opinion of the Unnamed Savior due to the fact the prince didn't coerce her into doing her job Youta
The savior sent after Tsukina, to fill the absence of the Unnamed Savior; needing to quell searches for her. He has a very Superman desire to use his powers to help everyone and is very much liked by the knights and public for all his good deeds.
Despite this, he slowly felt inferior to the savior who came before him due to the barrier Tsukina had placed over the city. A spy from an enemy county played on this vulnerability to trick Youta into breaking the barrier. He was forgiven by everyone after Tsukina repaired the damage, knowing he had been manipulated.Bran
A spy from Hagar, meant to kidnap Tsukina so her powers can be exploited by his warmongering country; he is an artificial human, a Sham Savior, creates to supplement the lack of them in Hagar.
After experiencing Tsukina's kindness and growing his own sense of self, he disobeys.God
A deity who keeps sending Earthlings to the other world, so they may improve and protect it. However, he seems quite incompetent and lazy at his job; picking people at random, with no concern if they want to go. His poor screening process resulted in the Unnamed Savior causing a kingdom to slowly become corrupt due to unwittingly giving her charm power.
He frequently visits Tsukina in mortal form whenever he needs to inform her of danger.Unamed Savior
A girl whom only wished to become prettier when she got selected as a savior. Unwilling to learn magic or do her job as savior, her magic leaked out as hypnotic charm and built up as a threat to explode in some manner that would the threaten the kingdom. Once the prince finally snapped and stabbed her, her magic caused a meteor strike to happen as God reclaimed her existenxe.
