Before Makoto's victorious students could catch their breath, Ilumgand-who had been soundly defeated-rose again. But this time, he was no longer human. Twisted into a grotesque monster, he stood in their path once more. His horrific transformation marked only the beginning. Within moments, the entire city descended into chaos. The Academy City of Rotsgard was overrun by a horde of monstrous abominations, plunging the once-vibrant stronghold of learning into the brink of annihilation. With lives in peril and the city teetering on collapse, Makoto Misumi-an instructor at the academy-took it upon himself to uncover the cause and quell the disaster. With his loyal followers at his side, he sets out into the heart of the turmoil. The "Unfortunate Prodigy" Makoto Misumi charges headfirst into the tangled crisis threatening the Academy City of Rotsgard, determined to protect the city of learning from total ruin!!

A fully original side story from the hit underdog fantasy! With Rotsgard entering summer break, Makoto seizes the opportunity to focus on improving his magical output. While training, he comes across a paper on “mana materialization” that sparks a breakthrough—leading him to develop a brand-new power to protect the Demiplane. Harnessing his overwhelming mana and razor-sharp focus, he gives form to a shifting, fluid force: the Mana Body! Even the strongest of the Demiplane are left stunned by this fearsome new ability—what exactly is Makoto’s latest trump card!?

As chaos erupts in the hyuman world, a reluctant trump card is forced into play... Using the commotion caused by Rotsgard’s mutant outbreak, the demon army makes its move—marching on the capitals of the Kingdom of Limia and Gritonia Empire. Faced with the four-armed demon general Io, the kingdom’s hero finds themselves cornered, without hope. Meanwhile, Makoto is abducted yet again by the Goddess and coerced into assisting the hero in crisis. Pushed around by both gods and demons alike, Makoto turns the tables with an unexpected counterstrategy! As the battlefield descends into chaos, demons, hyumans, and the Demiplane each pursue their own agenda in a deadly clash of ambitions!

Two monsters. One city. And no more room to hold back. To rescue the hero from the demon assault, Makoto and Shiki are sent to Limia’s capital, where they repel the towering demon general—all while keeping their true identities under wraps. But just as things seem to settle, a new threat crashes onto the stage: the deadliest human swordswoman—Sofia, the Dragon Slayer—and her partner, the blade-dragon Lancer. Their devastating rain of swords leaves the capital in ruins. Now, a berserker empowered by the fallen greater dragons’ might launches a relentless assault on Makoto… and he’ll have to face a whole new level of madness.

As every country slowly began to recover from the chaos sparked by the mutant incident, Makoto found himself constantly summoned by the Empire's nobles and the Kingdom's lords, running himself ragged through endless rounds of formal greetings. Amid this whirlwind of obligations, he finally gave his answer to a long-standing proposal: a face-to-face meeting with none other than the Demon King. Invited to the demon capital-a land no hyuman had ever set foot in-Makoto was received with the personal hospitality of the Demon King himself. For a mere merchant, such treatment was nothing short of extraordinary—leaving Makoto utterly at a loss for how to handle it!?

Production of Season 3 Confirmed! After arriving in the demon realm, Makoto and his companions are met with a surprisingly warm welcome—even by the Demon King himself. But the peace is short-lived. During a goodwill match between Makoto and the Demon Generals, chaos erupts: assassins aligned with the anti-Demon King faction launch a sudden attack, plunging the arena into turmoil. Though the assailants are quickly subdued, the true threat has only just begun. The divine artifact they unleashed summons a fearsome Greater Dragon. As the creature's devastating roar threatens to reduce the town to ash, the members of the Kuzunoha Company rise to the challenge, determined to protect what they can.

After wrapping up his visit to the demon territories, Makoto finally returns to the academy—only to be greeted by a mountain of paperwork filling his entire office. During his absence, inquiries about his lectures had flooded in nonstop, pushing the academy’s administrative office to the brink of collapse. The moment Makoto announces that he’ll be expanding his class, chaos erupts as students nearly come to blows over the few available seats! Meanwhile, in the demiplane, the selection process begins for those hoping to migrate to the newly formed “sea”… Makoto’s hectic days are far from over.

Kuzunoha Company arrives in the Limia Kingdom to visit the hero Hibiki—expecting a warm welcome, they get anything but. The moment the shrine maiden lays eyes on their true forms, she collapses on the spot, and the palace erupts into chaos. They say she possesses the power to see through a person’s very essence… so what exactly did she see within Makoto and the others? Even stranger, Mio—normally ruthless toward anyone who disrespects her master—doesn’t reprimand the shrine maiden at all. She only offers an unsettling, enigmatic smile. And of course, this “simple greeting” was never going to end there. Beneath the surface, hidden agendas collide, schemes begin to move, and the visit to Limia becomes the spark for something far bigger.

With over 1.4 million copies in circulation, the smash-hit fantasy returns with Volume 15! While visiting the Kingdom of Limia, the Kuzunoha Company makes a stop in a small nation within demon territory—Keryuneon—to take care of some business. But what they find is a country struggling to survive: brutal winter cold, relentless heavy snowfall, and a chronic labor shortage have left it in dire condition. After seeing the devastation firsthand, Makoto has an idea—could hot springs be the key to combating the snow and revitalizing the region? Meanwhile, when Tomoe hears that Makoto has started digging for hot springs, she explodes with excitement. A self-proclaimed Japan enthusiast, she immediately launches into plans far beyond his expectations—setting her sights on developing a full-scale hot spring resort unlike anything this world has ever seen!

The Kuzunoha Company accepts a request from one of Limia Kingdom's great noble houses to investigate Night Frontal, a barren marshland where the spirits have mysteriously vanished. No sooner do they begin their survey than they are caught in a series of inexplicable phenomena. Before they can react, their entire base camp is transported deep into the heart of the swamp. As panic spreads among the investigators, Makoto remains calm. Summoning powerful earth and fire spirits, he secures their cooperation and sets out to uncover the truth behind the cursed land. Their destination is a colossal tree believed to be responsible for devouring the spirits and bringing ruin to the marsh.

After completing his diplomatic tour of the world's nations as the representative of the Kuzunoha Company, Makoto returns to the Demiplane with an unsettling realization: As a merchant, he has been far too naive. Determined to face the realities of human greed and malice head-on, he seeks out Rembrandt, one of Tsige's most influential merchants and a man who understands both the public face of business and the shadows that lurk behind it. Yet instead of receiving guidance, Makoto finds himself drawn into a far more complicated matter. A revolution is quietly taking shape within the rapidly developing city of Tsige, and Rembrandt wants his opinion on the plans unfolding behind the scenes. As political ambitions, economic interests, and hidden agendas collide, the Kuzunoha Company stands on the verge of another major leap forward.

Makoto Misumi finds himself drawn into a plan spearheaded by the great merchant Patrick Rembrandt to secure independence for the frontier city of Tsige. Kahara Sairitsu, an influential figure in the Lorel Union who is supporting the plan, tells Makoto about Picnic Rose Garden, a powerful mercenary company renowned for its defensive prowess. Hoping to make the cheerfully named mercenary company the cornerstone of Tsige's defenses, Makoto and the rest of the Kuzunoha Company travel to Kannaoi, Lorel's second-largest city, to seek their cooperation. However, the people of Lorel hold the "Sage"—descendants of Japanese people who came to this world—in especially high regard. There is no chance they will simply leave Makoto alone...

Makoto Misumi and his followers travel to the Lorel Union in search of the mysterious mercenary company known as Picnic Rose Garden. Their destination is the city of Kannaoi, home to the labyrinth where the mercenary company is said to have established its base. Along the way, however, they rescue a young girl named Iroha who is being attacked on a dark road. At first, she seems to be nothing more than a runaway, but it soon becomes clear that she has ties to the prestigious Osakabe family of Lorel. Before they know it, Makoto and his companions find themselves caught up in a bitter family power struggle...

A Third Season of the TV Anime Is Officially in Production! In search of the mysterious mercenary company Picnic Rose Garden, Makoto Misumi and the members of the Kuzunoha Company take on the labyrinth of Yasokatsui. Though constantly thrown off by the strange mechanisms hidden throughout the maze, they steadily make their way toward its lower levels. Then, while Makoto is resting at an inn, a highly skilled assassin approaches him. Introducing himself as Rokuya, the man claims to be one of the legendary “First Adventurers,” figures who played a role in the founding of the Adventurers’ Guild. Rokuya offers to act as an intermediary between Makoto and the mercenary company. However, he also warns that his companions awaiting them on the labyrinth’s twentieth floor will stand against Makoto—?!
