Reincarnated as an elf—
After his ordinary life comes to an abrupt end in a sudden accident, he is reincarnated as an elf with a lifespan of 1,000 years. Determined to live a life without regrets and leave behind proof of his existence, he sets out on a journey—where he reunites with a young girl whose life he once saved.

The anime with the tentative English title The Reincarnated Elf Left on a Journey to Master His Magic and With His Extra Lifespan Became a Living Legend stars Daiki Yamashita as Liese, and Hana Hishikawa as Minori.
