A GLIMMER OF HOPEThe sekaishu are everywhere, and people are dying left and right. For some, like Kuzaku and Setora, death is not even the end. With the No-Life King using Merry as a vessel, Haruhiro blames himself for the twisted state of the world—but there’s light in the darkness. A much-needed reunion awaits him, and a new life is about to be born. Not only that, but an old legend about the sekaishu’s origins may hold the key to saving Grimgar. Haruhiro and his friends must stand together and put an end to this threat once and for all!

When they make it into the light, they discover Grimgar—a fantasy world that’s like something out of an RPG game. Without apparent skills or knowledge of their surroundings, Haruhiro and his newfound friends band together to form an adventuring party. Only by cooperating, using their wits, and learning new skills can they hope to survive in this dangerous land of monsters and magic.

But when his quiet power starts to overshadow the wrong person, the team’s prideful leader has him unceremoniously kicked out.Enter his slightly clingy childhood friend Heidemarie, now a member of Nachtlibelle, a renowned A-rank guild counted among the strongest in the land. She offers Wim a chance to join her team - a fresh start among allies who actually value his skills. His magic may not dazzle, but with the right party behind him, he just might prove that the back line was never where he truly belonged.
