A sentient sword. A powerless girl. The adventure of a lifetime begins when Fran, an enslaved cat-girl, stumbles upon a living blade in her darkest hour.

To become a full-fledged adventurer, Fran must pass an intimidating test. But even if she passes, will other adventurers give a lowly cat-girl a chance to fit in?

Propelled by promises of curry, Fran rushes in with Teacher at her side… but their target, the Dungeon Master, does not wait for them alone.

Fran and Teacher face off against their toughest adversary yet, but it’s not just their lives on the line. The fate of everyone in Alessa rests on their shoulders.

Monsters aren’t the only adversaries waiting to challenge Fran, but defeating slimy nobles at their own game will take a specialized approach — and a certain new skill.

The party ventures into the Spider’s Web dungeon… But are they the hunters or the prey?

When Fran and Teacher are separated, Teacher is faced with a decision that could destroy him — but desperate times call for desperate measures.

It’s a race against time as Fran and Teacher rush to the aid of the adventuring party. In the aftermath, Amanda reflects on an unexpected connection she has to Fran.
