<Introduction
The shield hero Iwatani Naofumi, who defeated one of the four spirits, "Reigame," returns to Merlomark after defeating Kyou, the cause of the resurrection of Reigame, in another world.
He prepares for the battle against the new "Phoenix," the new "Four Spirits" that are about to be resurrected, but the three heroes who blundered in the Reigame disturbance are missing, and the territory that Shobun owns is also in a situation where there is uncertainty about its strength.
Shobun, who wanted to recover the scattered residents of the old Rurorona village in preparation for the upcoming battle, visited Zeltobul, where the residents were sold into slavery, and participated in an underground gambling arena with Raftalia and Firo as a foothold for rescue.
The subhumans who seek salvation, the three heroes who are brokenhearted, and Mine, a.k.a. Vicci, who is active in the dark.
Amidst the intermingling of their respective agendas, will Shobun be able to pursue the path he believes in?
