Rin would like nothing more than to end her mock battle with the prince, and thanks to a timely interruption by a yellow-skinned demon, she gets her wish! Unfortunately, this new opponent is on a completely different level, and as the clash between the hero’s party and a group of high-level demons unfolds, there’s no guarantee she’ll make it out unscathed...

Satou and his companions have arrived in Gururian City, and all around them, mock battles are a common sight in preparation for the upcoming martial arts tournament. Meanwhile, the Wings of Freedom, a demon lord–worshiping cult, is giving speeches in the streets, and sure enough, a horde of demons soon emerges from within the city! Amid the chaos, Satou and friends rush to the scene, only to find an unexpected guest...

Having saved the mysterious elf girl and her protector, Satou faces his next challenge: ascending the Cradle, a training facility for elves packed with monsters and powerful guardians! Satou fights his way up, his sights set on the 200th floor-where a fearsome foe awaits...

Satou has escaped the underground labyrinth and now owns two new slaves: Arisa and Lulu. And Arisa, who attempts to creep into his bed on her very first day, may be the only one in this world who can understand him...

When a secret plot brewing in the darkness threatens the Forest of Illusions, it's up to Satou to save the day! Will he be able to stop it in time?

Looking to deliver a letter from the Witch of the Forest of Illusions, Satou and his party decide to visit the village of the forest giants. He soon finds the villagers are still recovering from hydra attacks, including three children who were poisoned by the hydra’s toxic breath. As Satou gets to work on brewing an antidote, Karina ponders how she can enlist the giants’ assistance in ridding her hometown of the demonic presence that plagues it...

Satou and his cadre arrive at Muno Castle, where a demon posing as a magistrate is in charge, and he’s got everyone fooled-or so he thinks...! The beastfolk girls try to take him down, but little do they know, a horde of goblins is preparing to lay siege to Muno City! Will the party be able to fight a war on two fronts, or is the city doomed to fall...?

After his party’s valiant effort protecting the Muno Barony, Satou is officially knighted. He joins the ranks of the nobility, gaining no small amount of prestige in the process. After a brief stay at the castle, they all head to Bolehart City, where Satou finds himself getting a much more involved education in smithing than he bargained for…

When Elder Dohal, lord of the dwarves, asks Satou to help forge a powerful new sword, his smithing skills are put to the test. After a long night sweating over the anvil, Satou’s new sword is finished, and its power is like nothing he’s ever seen before. But there’s no time for swordplay, as Bolehart City beckons, and its streets are replete with delicious food, skilled craftsmen, and new spells to purchase!

Entering a territory marred by past tragedies (including attacks by Zen the Undead King), Satou faces new challenges. He’ll have to charge on through, but the obstacles are many—including monsters, brigands, and even a fortress under attack by a fierce hydra! Where will Satou’s path take him in this unfamiliar land?

After Sara is kidnapped for a sinister ritual, her body is possessed by the resurrected Demon Lord! What’s more, the Demon Lord’s minions stand in the way of any who would strive to free her from her cruel fate... Wasting no time, Satou sets off to rescue her despite Arisa’s desperate pleas for him to stay, but even he will have to exercise extreme caution against the Demon Lord…

After escaping the collapsing Cradle, Satou reunites with his party. Now, with a new friend in tow, the time has come to bid Seiryuu City farewell. After making a promise to Zena, Satou sets off on a journey to take Mia back to her hometown, but on the way, they make a shocking discovery that brings her to tears. However, all is not lost-the town of Kainona may yet hold some answers...

Satou’s epic battle against the Demon Lord rages on as he strives to eliminate the source of the fiend’s power! Twelve times he has felled the foe before him, but a decisive victory yet eludes his grasp. With images of Sara’s lifeless body flashing through his mind, Satou is hyper-focused on her resurrection—and he’s got no time to waste if he ever wants to see her again…

With one of his most arduous battles to date behind him, Satou successfully brings Sara back to life! But he’s neglected his comrades for too long, and there’s only one way to remedy that—a tour of the capital! Will Satou finally get to enjoy a moment’s peace?
