Gamer Kazuma dies in a freak accident, and is met in the afterlife by a crass goddess, Aqua.

All of the weak monsters have gone into hiding since a leader of the devil king's army has settled in near town. Kazuma, who had been focusing on improving his skills, is stuck at a standstill. With nothing else to do, Kazuma tags along with Megumin's training, which consists of unleashing explosion magic into an abandoned castle.

Dullahan, a top leader in the Devil King's army, yet again appears at the city in a frenzied rage.

The rampaging ancient weapon: the mobile fortress, Destroyer, is headed straight for Kazuma and party's city!

Darkness, Aqua, and Megumin are back to continue their quest against the Devil King. Kazuma is back too, but the only adventures he has waiting for him exist within the criminal justice system.

Kazuma and Aqua meet Yunyun, a Crimson Demon girl who claims to be Megumin's rival. The feuding magic users then square off in a competition that could have ruinous repercussions for both of them.

A new discovery in a previously mapped out dungeon might be the first step toward Kazuma repaying his massive debt. Unfortunately for him, Aqua is determined to help.

The party makes their way to Arcanretia, a city known for it's recuperative hot springs! But what they don't know about the city might spell doom for their vacation.

Evading the angry mob, the gang discover that the source of the town's water is being poisoned by the man from earlier, who is revealed to be one of the Devil King's army leaders, Hans the Deadly Poison Slime.

Kazuma and the gang receive a letter from Princess Iris. She wants to share a meal with them while hearing about their adventures. While Kazuma is giddy with wonderment of her beauty, Darkness is terrified of heads rolling in the event of any rudeness.

Kazuma thinks of a way to stay in the capital for Iris's sake, and declares that he will capture the thief who's causing a stir in the streets! Since the thief targets nobles with bad behavior, Kazuma and his friends decide to stay at Alderp's mansion.

Chris tells Kazuma that the necklace he and Iris swapped bodies with is a sacred treasure, and it is dangerous and can threaten lives depending on its use. Princess Iris is in danger! Two robbers dressed in black sneak into the royal castle at night!

Kazuma and the gang fail to defeat the hydra in the lake near Axel. The gang hopes to rely on knights from the capital, but they've been delayed due to a bandit disturbance for which a bounty has been issued. Darkness, however, is obsessed with the hydra.

Darkness's wedding to Aldarp is imminent. Despite Aqua's and Megumin's pleas, Kazuma has no intention of intervening. Vanir then visits the mansion and reveals a shocking secret to Kazuma.
