Beleaguered priest Ares Crown has encountered all sorts of trials and tribulations in supporting the hero’s party thus far, and now the Holy Warrior Naotsugu Toudou can no longer wear the holy armor Fried. But there’s good news: The top prize at the local casino is the legendary summetal armor, and that should make a fine substitute. Alas, Ares’s subordinate, Stey, is banned from this casino, and the owner is notoriously corrupt. Has the party’s (already dismal) luck run out? Or will one harried man of the cloth have to take matters into his own hands?!

"There's only one thing I'm aiming for-to be the world's strongest hero." Cri makes an oath with his friends to become the strongest hero in the world...but his hopes are quickly dashed when he realizes that his talents lie elsewhere. Despite the reality check, the expectations from the people around him seem to rising exponentially every day! Now Cri must deal with this huge misunderstanding as well as the outrageous consequences!

Krai's party had safely and successfully completed the rescue mission-or so he thought. But a new threat lurks in the capital: Sitri's super-dangerous slime-the very same one he had lost in the White Wolf's Den. As he searches for its whereabouts, an unsettling feeling spreads throughout the city...

When a sickly boy succumbs to illness only to reawaken as a weakly undead, his first thought is not of horror, but joy. Sadly, his delight is cut short by the realization that he is still not in control of his own body. The excruciating pain that plagued him in his previous life has simply been replaced by the necromancer that brought him into this one. Now, to win true freedom, he must put his unlife on the line and fight for his dark master...!

A search party of hunters heads off to the White Wolf's Den on Krai Andrey's orders. What they find there is a terrifyingly ominous monster-the likes of which they've never seen before! Meanwhile, a restless Krai gets a visit from an old friend (and fellow member of the Grieving Souls): Sitri Smart. The master alchemist returns home at last...

The survey team Krai sent to the White Wolf's Den is forced into a tough battle thanks to the Akashic Tower’s evil experiments. Even Liz, with her godlike speed, is struggling. Will Krai's appearance be enough to turn things around??

Having wrapped up their battles in Yutith's Tomb, Holy Warrior Naotsugu Toudou and crew head to Golem Valley to further level up. But there's no end in sight for Ares's troubles--his newest recruit Stephenne may be high-level, but her klutziness is practically world-famous! With her around, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. Will Ares be able to keep both her and the Holy Warrior out of harm's way?

The hero's party is off to the water capital, Cloudburst, in order to contract with more powerful spirits. It's a big endeavor, and they may have bitten off more than they can chew, but not to worry--priest Ares Crown is not far behind, and this time he's got powerful mercenaries with him! One way or another, he'll keep the hero safe, even if it means following the party to the bottom of the ocean!

What's a healer to do when his party's swordswoman is useless because she just changed her fighting style, the mage can just barely use one type of magic, and the all important hero does nothing but glomp onto any beauty in sight??? Support them from the shadows and do all the heavy lifting, obviously. The demon lord won't stand a chance! Probably.

The White Wolf's Den is revealed as the site of the Tower of Akasha's wicked experiments! Sitri, the Grieving Souls' alchemist, races to the scene to take the reins of the investigation, but what awaits her there?
