I Pretended Too Hard, Now I'm an S-Rank Guild Master

Renji Kurogane only has one skill: making everyone around him stronger while he himself can't throw a single punch. On paper, his class is rated the weakest in the world. In practice, one dungeon collapse, one desperate aura, and a very confused rescue team turn him into "the C-rank who soloed an S-rank Calamity" overnight.

He tries to correct the record. Nobody listens. Every denial just makes him sound more legendary.

Before he can blink, Renji is crowned Guild Master of Ebonfall, one of the strongest S-rank guilds in the world, surrounded by veterans who could kill him by accident and a Federation that expects him to fight monsters he can't even scratch. His only real weapons are quiet buffs, quicker thinking, and a talent for staying alive without ever landing a hit.

Then there's Yukina Amagi. Guild Master of Frostfang, genuinely terrifying, and utterly convinced that Renji's calm is the mask of someone far more dangerous than he lets on. The harder he tries to prove her wrong, the harder she falls for the wrong idea entirely.

He never wanted to be a legend. He just wanted to survive the week.

Too bad the whole world already decided otherwise.
