Search Worlds Without End

Game loving shut-in Kazuma Sato's life as a young schoolboy in Japan abruptly comes to an early end... or at least it was supposed to. When he opens his eyes, though, he sees a beautiful goddess that offers him a once in an after-lifetime chance to be reborn in a parallel world. The catch is that the world is violent and threatened by a growing evil! Fortunately, he can choose any one thing to bring with him. So he chooses the goddess, Aqua! And so his adventure with his gorgeous companion begins--if he could just get enough money and food to survive, keep his goddess out of trouble, and avoid grabbing the attention of the Demon King's army!

Kazuma's first winter in another world isn't going so well. With companions like Aqua (Arch-priest), Megumin (Arch-wizard), and Darkness (Crusader), his party of advanced classes should be the most powerful in Axel--but they're so dysfunctional, even the easiest-seeming quest goes terribly awry, and they can barely save enough to afford a stable! When an opportunity arises to stay in a mansion, it's like a dream come true--the only catch is that they have to exorcise the evil spirits haunting it. Goddess Aqua is an expert with the undead, so the quest should be a piece of cake, right...? Unfortunately, with this useless goddess, things have a way of working out for the worst...

After successfully saving the town from Mobile Fortress Destroyer, Kazuma is ready to sit back and enjoy the hero treatment: fame, fortune, and...criminal charges?! Now in hot water with the law, he has to find a way to clear his name with the help of Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness before the judge can sentence him to death. Darkness has a plan to buy more time, but will it be enough...? After all, in this wonderful world, who knows what'll happen?

When adventurers are stressed and tired, there's only one place to go-hot springs! Kazuma and crew head to a town well known for their amazing open air baths and atmospheric surroundings. The only problem is that it's also famous as home to the Axis Church. Aqua couldn't be more delighted to visit all her "cute" followers but the others have heard more than enough stories to be afraid...

After Kazuma and crew's less-than-relaxing vacation, Yunyun burst onto the scene with shocking news-the Crimson Magic Clan is in danger, and she wants to bear his children to save it! Kazuma returns with her to the village, but the situation isn't quite what he expected...

I WANT A LITTLE SISTER!

As Kazuma spends his downtime bemoaning his party's lack of a little-sister archetype, he's invited to a royal banquet, where he meets the young Princess Iris. She's enthralled by his tales of adventure, and once she takes a liking to him, Kazuma ends up getting transported to the royal castle! Though he's initially unsure of what to expect, life with Iris turns out to be a dream come true, and Kazuma doesn't ever want to wake up. . .so when he hears rumors of a "righteous thief" stalking the capital, Kazuma declares he'll be the one to capture the dastardly do-gooder!

Still sitting pretty on the reward money from defeating several of the Demon King's generals, Kazuma is taking it easy. Darkness, on the other hand, is nowhere to be found. Just as rumors about Darkness leaving to marry a lord begin to circulate, a letter turns up.

"I can't see you anymore. Please accept my resignation from the party."

Is this the beginning of the end for everyone's favorite band of misfit adventurers?!

MAY THE BEST GODDESS WIN!

It's time once again for the annual Eris Appreciation Festival, and everyone in Axel Town is in high spirits... except Aqua. In her mind, it's totally unfair that Eris gets an entire festival thrown in her honor while she doesn't. So Aqua announces that she'll be having an Aqua Appreciation Festival at the same time, and both Kazuma and Chris get dragged into helping out. And once the festivities are underway, Chris also ropes Kazuma into helping her infiltrate a noble's mansion in pursuit of a new Sacred Treasure: a legendary suit of armor...that can talk?! Two festivals plus one mysterious suit of armor equals chaos for Kazuma, and it won't end until the whole town gets caught up in the madness!

The Demon Lord's forces are headed to Axel Town. And among them is a user of... Explosion Magic?! Looks like it's Megumin's time to shine!

Luck be a lady tonight!

Seeking financial support in the fight against the Demon King's army, Princess Iris visits the neighboring nation of Elroad to meet the prince: her husband-to-be. But Kazuma won't hand over his little sister to just anyone! Scratch that. He won't hand her over, period! Posing as her escort, he tags along in an attempt to derail yet another wedding (and rake in the dough). But no sooner than they arrive in Elroad are they informed that the engagement is off, and there won't be any financial support at all! And so it falls to Kazuma to use his wit and insanely good Luck to milk the Casino Kingdom for all it's worth!

With the Iris Escort mission behind them, Kazuma and the gang relax in the lap of luxury at the Royal Palace, but it isn't long before they receive an unexpected visitor. A wild Komekko appeared! They decide to look after her for a while and bring her back to the mansion. But once she starts gushing about how amazing Axel's adventurers are, they can't resist the urge to flex and end up accepting a rather troublesome quest from the adventurers guild...

There's a new girl in town! And for some reason, she keeps calling Darkness "Mama". But there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for that...right? So while that gets sorted out, Darkness has taxes to collect! It's time for the high-income adventurers to pay their dues and Kazuma's at the top of the list. Naturally, one night after a long game of Cat and Mouse: Tax Evasion Edition, they find themselves handcuffed together, and Darkness sees it as the perfect opportunity to ask Kazuma a burning question.

"...Do you like Megumin?"

ETERNAL LIFE CAN GET LONELY

There's a stalker on the loose! ...Or so it would seem. Apparently, Wiz has been receiving a lot of attention from a mysterious man. After some eavesdropping reveals the terrifying extent of his knowledge about her, she receives a letter requesting they meet. And when she brings it to Vanir and Kazuma, Vanir gets unusually worked up and threatens to take action! This gives Wiz the push she needs to handle the issue herself... but it looks like someone has been filling her head with weird ideas. For starters, why is she acting like a blushing bride to be?!

HAIL TO THE CHIEF!

It's back to Crimson Magic Village for Kazuma's party! Yunyun is about to undergo the Chief's Trials, and it always helps to have friends close by. The challenge is one that steadily ramps up in difficulty, so it's best attempted in pairs. But why is Yunyun so determined to become chief anyway? Could she possibly have an idea for sweeping village reform? In the meantime, reports are flooding in of loud explosions echoing through the night. Megumin is the prime suspect, of course, but Kazuma secretly knows she isn't responsible... Why? Because he and Megumin were in bed together the whole time...!

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!

Serena's priestly prowess is making a splash in Axel! ...Much to Aqua's dismay. Is the town only big enough for one powerful priest? Does Axel not need its goddess anymore...? Yet unbeknownst to most, winning the affection of the masses ties into Serena's master plan! While having many faithful followers suits her goals, her true prize is Kazuma Satou! If successfully enthralled, the greatest obstacle to the Demon King's ambitions would finally be removed! At least, that was the hope...

P.S. PLEASE LOOK FOR ME.

With Serena's sudden rise in popularity, Aqua's insecurity sends her fleeing from town, leaving only a letter behind. If they no longer need their goddess, then Aqua won't stay where she isn't wanted! She'll beat the Demon King by herself, save the world, and return to the heavenly realm! Little does she know, though, that the people of Axel are nothing without their beloved mascot--not that Kazuma plans to do anything about it. He's only Level 1, after all. Oh, who is he kidding? With this latest development bringing him straight to the Demon King's castle gates, it's time for Kazuma to rally the troops, power-level like never before to awaken his hidden potential, and get his goddess back!

Using a huge pile of Mananite to power up Megumin's Explosion, Kazuma's party blows a hole into the barrier surrounding the Demon Lord's Castle. But after reconvening with Aqua, our intrepid heroes will have to answer an important question before they settle things once and for all... Just how much cash can they expect for bringing the Demon Lord down? In the final volume of the hit action-comedy, a cowardly NEET and Axel's favorite bunch of misfits steel themselves for one last battle!
