The residents of Akiba are notified of the election. Both parties campaign to gain their support. Meanwhile, Rayneshia needs to face her mother to get permission in order to be part of the New Round Table Conference.

Election day has finally come. Standing in front of Adventurers and the People of the Land, both Eins and Rayneshia give sincere speeches. Votes are cast and starting to be counted. What will the result be?

Krusty has something to tell Shiroe. In his message, he recounts what happened to him after he disappeared, as well as his encounters with Enchantress Youren and the Ancient hero Elias Hackblade.

Krusty and Kanami's group face their enemies in Sirius Grotto. During the battle, the truth about Enchantress Youren comes to light. Will Krusty be able to overcome his curse?

Minori finally gets to go shopping alone with Shiroe. While exploring the store, she learns a lot about items and raids. Meanwhile, Shiroe checks in with Isaac to see if he's noticed anything unusual.

One morning, the Adventurers wake up and realize that the Akiba they're currently in isn't the Akiba they know. With reduced levels, they start to feel helpless, but Shiroe notices there's still hope.

The young Adventurers challenge the raid. Without any adults' help, they must defeat the enemies and bring back normality to Akiba. Can they beat this raid by themselves?

When Elder Tale was a game, there were talented solo players who would come together whenever they felt like it and defeat difficult raids. Their name was "The Debauchery Tea Party." Now, their leader, the cheerful girl Kanami, is traveling through the vast lands of the Chinese server on her way towards Yamato.

Serara, a young female member of the guild "Crescent Moon Alliance", is trapped by mysterious men in the northern city of Susukino and needs help. Shiroe and his friends travel to reach her. Annoyed by the game's tasteless food, they travel northwards, and go inside "the depths of Palm", a crumbling series of old mining tunnels. There they meet creepy monsters...

Out of nowhere, Shiroe finds himself in the city of Akihabara, inside the game "Elder Tale". Thirty thousand Japanese players have been locked inside the game! The world on the other side of the screen becomes reality, and amidst the chaos Shiroe finds his old friend Naotsugu. And as they relax at finding one another, they meet the powerful assassin "Akatsuki". Akatsuki has a request to make of Shiroe...

The Apocalypse has locked thirty thousand players inside the game, and no one knows what to do. The larger guilds are taking over Akihabara, and outside the city violent groups are Party Killing other players. A young female member of Marielle's "Crescent Moon Alliance" is trapped in Susukino, far to the north, and needs their help. Shiroe feels somewhat embarrassed, but makes a decision.

Fall has come to Akihabara. After defeating the monsters, Shiroe is fighting a losing battle against paperwork, but the town is filled with cheer as the first event the Adventurers have ever had, the "Scales Festival", is approaching.

Touri of the Saiguu Family, Princess Rayneshia's husband-to-be, sends a messenger to let her know the preparations are in place for their marriage. Meanwhile, Eins declares that Honesty will secede from the Round Table Conference.

At the Round Table Conference gathering, people notice that Rayneshia seems to be preoccupied by something. Meanwhile, on their way back from training, Toya and the others find Ancient sisters.

The young Adventurers fell to despair by Ereinus. However, Akatsuki, Lelia, and Litka's fighting spirit reinvigorates the team’s morale. Under Minori's command, they stand against the Genius once again.

Shiroe and his group take Serara southwards. On the way, they stop at the house of one of the "People of the Land". The people of the land were originally only characters in the game, with no personalities or unique traits of their own, but as Naotsugu talks to them, something seems odd... The party gradually realizes that the world isn't the same as it was when it was a game.

The Free Cities of Eastel are the first to notice the founding of the Round Table. They send a messenger to Akihabara and invite Shiroe and Crusty to their conference. What are the nobles planning at their ice-covered palace? Meanwhile, Minori and Touya and the other new playesr are going on a camping trip at the beach to learn to fight. Marielle forgets her role as leader (?) and enjoys the salt air fun.

A victory party is held at the palace of Eternal Ice to celebrate the adventurer's defeat over the monsters. Crusty takes the princess's hand and leads her in a dance signifying the reconciliation between the adventurers and land people.

The second day of the Scales Festival in Akihabara arrives. Akatsuki has gotten closer to Shiroe, and so is very happy all day, and even seems to be enjoying her fights with Naotsugu. Meanwhile, Minori is uncertain with how to deal with her feelings towards him, and goes to speed to Karashin. Karashin is overloaded with paperwork so she decides to help. It seems like a lot of land people merchants have come to Akihabara...

Shiroe, Naotsugu, and Akatsuki reach the northern city of Susukino, and safely meet Serara. With the help of the mysterious swashbuckler Nyanta, they plot to leave Susukino. But the evil guild Brigantia wants to stop them. The high-level monk Demikas attacks them. Can they overcome the odds?

Shiroe returns to Akihaba and Marielle tells him what the town is like. The initial chaos has subsided, but the larger guilds are in control, and evil guilds are tricking new players and taking advantage of them. Shiroe is angred by this, and tells Naotsugu, Akatsuki, and Nyanta of his plan. And then he tells the Crescent Moon Alliance that he's going to clean up the city of Akihabara.

Nyanta told Shiroe the secret of making real food in this world. With Marielle's help, the Crescent Moon Alliance begins a fast food stand, and their "Crescent Burger" is hugely popular with players who are sick of tasteless food. BUt Shiroe's real goal isn't to sell hamburgers, and with Henrietta he begins to work on the next phase of his plan.

After the success of their Crescent Burger, Marielle and Henrietta meet with the members of the major crafting guilds of Elder Tale: Karashin of Shopping Street 8, Michikata of the Marine Agency ,and Roderic of the Roderic Merchant Association. They use Shiroe's plan to dangle the secret recipe of the Crescent Burger in front of them, and the talented account Henrietta opens negotiations. What she wants is...

Just as the Sahaugin attack begins on the Zantleaf peninsula, the goblins are seen advancing further inland. Will they attack Laynessia's homeland, Maihama, or Akihabari?

Akihabara is amazingly busy since the Scales Festival began. There are many land people in town, causing accidents, spreading rumors, and starting couples' fights, and even Shiroe can't deal with them. An influential noble named Marves arrives from Minami to see Laynessia. Laynessia tries her best to deal with him, but he gets closer and closer to her...
