Peacetime continues, and Kelvin is just about to go stir crazy when a certain problem falls into his lap—a family problem. Rion wants to go to school, which would drive Kelvin and Gerard absolutely mad with worry and loneliness. Not only that, but in the course of things, she manages to involve DarkMel and Bell in the plot as well! What awaits the girls in the Academy of Lumiest? And how will Kelvin and Gerard fare without them?

“I’d rather put my life on the line than use Kelvin as a decoy!!!” The Beast King Festival arc continues as Kelvin and the gang join the battle in several groups—Rion, Efil, and Gerard against a mysterious old man; Kelvin against Ange; and Sera against Condemner. It seems Ange has a thing for Kelvin, but it comes out in a desire to claim his head! Too bad for her, though, as the feeling is mutual, and all this fighting is only making Kelvin fall for her harder! Will he somehow be able to calm her down and recruit her, or will she succeed in taking his head first? Or worse, will Kelvin be forced to kill her?! Who wins? Who loses? Will the trio make it in time to save their leader? Can our favorite battle junkie hold on when he’s already died once? And who is the mysterious yet oh-so-familiar girl that Sera is fighting?

The battle against DarkMel for the fate of the world has reached its climax and the action is heating up as Kelvin and his friends struggle to deal with her latest and most impressive transformation yet. Do they even stand a chance of winning against such a powerful opponent? And after everything is said and done, what will happen to DarkMel and the once-great goddess? The stakes are high, and it’s anyone’s guess as to whether Kelvin will have to make his way through the world without half of the love of his life—or if he will soon be too dead to care.

“Why don’t you all come at me at once, with all your power!!!” The Beast King Festival continues, and several schemes are afoot! Kelvin and Leonhart are duking it out, Ange is shadowing our favorite battle junkie, and Sera is on the hunt for a mysterious yet strangely familiar contestant who shares her last name. Many threads slowly weave into one final confrontation, but how will it all shake out? Kelvin is certainly powerful, yet Leonhart has got to have tricks up his sleeve as well, and may prove to be the toughest opponent he’s ever faced. But why did he put on such a sham of a fight, and how will this grudge match end?

“We’re always looking for fights with more powerful foes. The fun’s just getting started.” After wiping out Black Wind in Toraj and fulfilling his desire to fight the Heroes of Deramis, Kelvin returns to Parth just in time to greet the goddess Melfina, who has finally finished preparing her artificial body and is ready to join the party in person. Along with her descent to the mortal plane, she bestows the Blessing of the Goddess of Reincarnation upon Kelvin, which enables him to summon a Hero of his own! As Kelvin’s party continues growing in size and in strength, the militaristic nation of Trycen stirs in the shadows. Amid the rapidly changing situation, Parth’s ultimate battle junkie receives notice of his Rank S promotion exam, which requires him to...solve a mystery?! Join this black-clad warrior and his allies as the action ramps up even more in the fourth volume of this epic journey!

“Leave your idealism at home. If you wish to change the world, first get strong enough to do so!” After Kelvin’s forces are bolstered by the addition of Sera, the daughter of the late Demon Lord Gustav, the party sets out for Toraj, the Country of Water. There, who do they encounter but...the Heroes of Deramis?! With the promise of combat on the horizon, there is no way our favorite battle junkie would miss out on such a perfect opportunity. He waits in anticipation for the clash against the Heroes of Light, Wind, Water, and Darkness, and if a few pesky bandits mean to get in his way...well, he’ll just have to “play” with them too! Join this black-clad warrior and his allies as they continue to make a name for themselves and travel abroad in the third volume of an epic journey!

“I’m in a pinch, all right. And that’s why I’m having such a blast!” The battle between Kelvin and “Ice Princess” Sylvia, a fellow Rank S adventurer, kicks into high gear! She displays an uncanny knack for battle and possesses a skill that completely nullifies all magic attacks! Kelvin is immediately on the ropes but soon launches his own counterattack! Hang on to your seats for this white-hot showdown between our favorite black-clad battle junkie and one of the world’s greatest fighters in this seventh volume of his epic journey!
