Introduction

A disastrous summoner chasing love and dreams—let the magic begin! Truth-or-dare, star-tier edition!
Rubin can't summon anything right. The stuff he wants never shows up, and the stuff he doesn't—bam, here it comes. But this bottom-tier summoner's got one giant dream: to defeat the Demon Dragon! Then one day, poof! He accidentally summons a prince—who drags him straight to the Demon Dragon's castle!? Somehow, Rubin pulls a miracle, takes down the dragon, breaks the prince's curse, and earns a sparkly new title: Star-Tier Hero. With his new found fame, contenders and admirers are lining up, and when top-tier adventurer Cythia throws down a battle challenge, Rubin panics and summons the prince again on impulse!?
Together with the cursed Prince Kyle and the muscled beauty Boa, the three set off for the Tower of Babel to take down the Demon King.
