Dead End discovers that Ruijerd will have to pay a fortune in fees to leave the Demon Continent. As they struggle to find a way around this unexpected roadblock, Rudeus receives another vision.

Rudeus finds himself imprisoned by the beast people in Doldia Village. Will Ruijerd and Eris arrive to clear his name before he loses patience and tries to fight his way to freedom?

Dead End decide to wait out the rainy season in the Doldia village. Eris befriends the chieftain's granddaughter, but her fondness for Ghislaine leads to unexpected conflict.

Rudeus, Eris, and Ruijerd arrive in the Holy Country of Millis, where Rudeus's thoughts turn to home. When the three split up for a day off, a chance encounter in an alley leads Rudeus to a shocking reunion.

Rudeus doesn't want a new party, but he still grows closer to Counter Arrow as he settles into life as a northlands adventurer. When danger rears its head, he finds himself risking it all for his new friends.

Following the Man-God's advice, Rudeus enrolls in school. He reunites with an old friend and meets potential new enemies, but will he find what he seeks? And what does the future hold for him and the enigmatic "Silent Fitz"?

Love is in the air. First, a smitten classmate seeks Rudeus's help to meet the girl of his dreams. Then the beast people's mating season puts Rudeus in an awkward position—one he'll have to fight his way out of.

Newly cured and brimming with confidence, Rudeus resolves to marry Sylphie. Just one problem: he has no idea how marriage works in this world. And when friends tell him any newlywed needs a house, he winds up with a haunted mansion.

Rudeus's sisters arrive with an unexpected chaperone. After catching up with an old friend, Rudeus decides it's time to send the girls to school. But convincing Norn and Aisha turns out to be more trouble than he bargained for.

With Nanahoshi's help, Rudeus gains a way to shorten his journey, but he and Elinalise will still need to hurry if they hope to return before Sylphie gives birth. Their first obstacle: the harsh desert of Begaritt and its monstrous denizens.

The rescue party reaches the heart of the Teleporter Labyrinth and confronts its guardian. But when the monster shrugs off Rudeus's magic, they realize they may have bitten off more than they can chew.

Roxy makes a desperate move to pull Rudeus out of his depression. As the group journeys home, both of them must face their feelings and negotiate the consequences.
