The hunters are faced with chimeras and a giant golem. The intense battle suddenly comes to an end when Krai arrives. The next day Noctus and the other members of the Akashic Tower are finally reunited with Sophia. But she is acting strange, and then a certain someone appears...

The auction has finally begun. Cry has racked up a huge amount of debt in order to bid on the one Noble Phantasm he was looking for, but his eyes are drawn to the many Noble Phantasms on the stage and his feelings are disturbed. As Cry's reason and patience reach their limits, what is brought into the venue is the Akasha Golem that Sitri wanted. Cry, who understood Sitori's feelings, gives up on the Noble Phantasm he was aiming for and goes into a big fight, throwing everything away to win the golem bid. An auction that brings together a variety of thoughts. How will it end?

The Falling Fog came to the capital to make a name for themselves, instead they get disgraced. To regain their honor, Arnold sets his sights on Krai, but he is preoccupied with how to repay his immense debt to Sitri. When chance brings them together, a fierce battle unfolds...

Krai discovers an exceptional relic that'll soon go to the auction. Since he really wants it, he contacts the seller directly. But that turns out to be Arnold, and Krai's clumsy negotiation skill backfires completely. Others people then butt in and the relic goes to the auction anyway...

Tino and her group are fighting against a phantom even before they enter the treasure chamber. In the process, they realize that their opponent is significantly stronger than level 3. Meanwhile, Krai rushes to them to save them from their terrible fate.

Sitri saves the day. Flustered, the Akashic Tower's members ignore Sophia's orders and self-destruct. As Sitri has figured out their headquarters, the hunters press on. Flick uses his lightning spell on them all, and for a moment it seems it's all over...

The Dragon Slayer Arnold Hail is level 7 and he proudly rolls into the capital with his party "Falling Fog", but Krai doesn't even show a shred of interest. Meanwhile, getting his relics charged is causing quite commotion...

Krai and Tino's group wander through the White Wolf's building. The group believes that Krai knows where the exit is located. However, he is clueless. Then, they suddenly encounter the survivors they were trying to rescue.

A long time ago, Sitri entrusted Krai with one of her alchemy creations: a slime powerful enough to destroy all of Zebrudia. When Krai discovers the slime is missing, he scrambles to recover it before chaos ensues.

The Akashic Tower decides on an all out war against the hunters because they falsely believe that Krai found their facility. Independent of that, Krai's careless words cause a huge group of hunters to be sent to the White Wolf's Den.

Sitri is finally back, but instead of focusing on the slime, she gives Krai an ominous warning. That at this rate, the entire investigation team will perish. The lethal battle between hunters and the Akashic Tower has been kicked off!

Tino has received a mission from Krai. But before she can set out, she needs a few strong members for her group. Greg, Rhuda, and Gilbert are already ready.

Krai Andrey is the master of the clan named First Steps. Although he would prefer to retire, he can't find an opportunity or the right time to do so. Krai explains in detail how he ended up in this situation.
