Ten years have passed since the Demon Lord Kranos declared war on mankind. As the situation grows desperate, the Ruxe Kingdom summons a hero from another world to stand against this threat. Assigned by the Church to join the hero's party, a battle-worn priest arrives to fulfill his obligations but is shocked to find that his companions are utterly inept! A mage who can only use fire magic, a swordswoman recently defected from her father's fighting school, and a hero obsessed with women?! With an average level totaling just 15, there's no way these novices are capable of taking down a demon lord! But a job's a job, so it's up to the man of God (who thankfully has power to spare) to support these buffoons from the shadows. With an extraordinary healer on their side, defeating their target will be a cinch! ...Hopefully.

The hero’s party is off to the water capital, Cloudburst, in order to contract with more powerful elemental spirits. It’s a big endeavor for even the typical mage, but a necessary one to defeat the Demon Lord. They may have bitten off more than they can chew, but not to worry—priest Ares Crown is close behind, and this time he’s got two powerful mercenaries with him! One way or another, he’ll keep the hero safe, even if it means venturing to the bottom of the ocean! ...Unless the Demon Lord’s right-hand man and ruler of the seas has anything to say about that.

The Sacred Kingdom has enjoyed a great many years without war thanks to a colossal wall constructed after a historic tragedy. They understand best how fragile peace can be. When the terrible demon Jaldabaoth takes to the field at the head of a united army of monstrous tribes, the Sacred Kingdom's leaders know their defenses are not enough. With the very existence of the country at stake, the pious have no choice but to seek help wherever they can get it, even if it means breaking taboo and parlaying with the undead king of the Nation of Darkness!

When the story begins without its hero Kimihiko Kimizuka has always been a magnet for trouble and intrigue. For as long as he can remember, he’s been stumbling across murder scenes or receiving mysterious attache cases to transport. When he met Siesta, a brilliant detective fighting a secret war against an organization of pseudohumans, he couldn’t resist the call to become her assistant and join her on an epic journey across the world. ...Until a year ago, that is. Now he’s returned to a life that is normal and tepid by comparison, knowing the adventure must be over. After all, the detective is already dead.

When being mediocre is the best-case scenarioAs the most powerful entity of all time, the Demon Lord Varvatos thinks life is a big fat snore. When he takes matters into his own hands and decides to reincarnate, he calibrates his magical strength to be perfectly average. But there is no way he could have predicted that everyone in the modern world would be weak as hell, which means he is totally overpowered once again! Reborn under the name Ard, he has ladies fawning over him, the royal family begging him to become the next king, and an ex-minion insisting on killing him?! But Ard has a one-track mind, and he won’t stop at anything to achieve his ultimate goal!

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.

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?!
