After defeating the demon lord, assassin Roland seems destined for eternal greatness, yet he wants nothing of the sort! Determined to avoid fame and fortune in pursuit of a normal life, he applies for a job at the local Adventurers Guild, where all manner of intrepid warriors come to turn in their quests. But Roland has no idea what “normal” really is, and he’s anything but your average employee! Will this world-class assassin be able to adjust to the monotony of everyday life at the guild?

A CRISIS ABROAD! Roland and his companions are called away to the Duchy of Bardenhawk to establish a new Adventurers Guild and help the nation rebuild after its collapse during the Human-Fiend War. Unfortunately, the locals are wholly unfamiliar with the concept of quests, so the former assassin has his work cut out for him. To make matters worse, aristocrats upset with Bardenhawk’s recent changes conspire to kidnap its princess, and they’ve hired the one person who may truly be a match for Roland...

When Roland receives a letter from the king personally requesting his assistance, he has little choice but to respond. Upon his arrival, he finds the king arranging a marriage between his daughter and a prince from the Holy Land of Rubens, a neighboring country whose influence spreads nearly as far as the Felind Kingdom’s. With an alliance between the two nations being the ultimate goal, it’s up to Roland to take command of the king’s forces to ensure that no ill fate befalls them on their journey, and his mettle will be tested before long...

The world’s deadliest assassin has settled in nicely at the guild, and he’s quickly become their best employee. What’s more, all the girls at work can’t get enough of him, even if he’s too oblivious to notice! But he’s got bigger things to worry about, as his partner Rila, the former Demon Lord, has been kidnapped, and he’ll have to go up against one of her most trusted allies to get her back. But was Rila’s disappearance truly a kidnapping…or was it an escape?

After subjugating three countries, Grevillea sets her sights on her next target: the supreme military power and land of swooping wyverns, the Nyrnal Empire. In order to secure a path into the country, she must first seize the neighboring Eastern Trade Union. The Union’s capital city of Khalkha is a paradise where any and all pleasures are within arm’s reach—but when Grevillea and Emperor Maximilian vie for supremacy, will its utopian streets run red with blood? The Arachnea and the Empire, the two remaining great powers on the continent, clash for the right to rule. As Grevillea’s secrets are dragged out into the light, the story hurtles toward its climax!

DON’T LET THE MASK SLIP ​Another year gone at Kimberly Magic Academy means a new crop of first-year students. Oliver and his classmates, now second-years, see their studies becoming increasingly intense. The reality of life as a mage is a cold slap in the face... Nanao, meanwhile, is grabbing attention left and right due to her skills with a blade and her broom-riding talents. Dying for a reprieve, the six friends take a brief trip to the magicity of Galatea…but is their bond proving detrimental to Oliver’s clandestine duties…?

MASTER VERSUS APPRENTICE! Someone is plotting to take over Felind Kingdom, and they’ve hired an assassin to kill Princess Almelia. Naturally, Roland is tasked with protecting the girl; who better to keep her safe from an assassin than another one, right? However, Roland’s foe is no ordinary killer this time. It’s the very woman who taught him all he knows. Can the legendary assassin kill his master? Does he even want to?

VENGEANCE WILL BE HIS The Sword Roses are blossoming into proper Kimberly mages, but that growth doesn’t come without trials: Magical biology continues to bring Katie anguish, and an upperclassman is putting Guy through labyrinth boot camp.

When Enrico whisks Pete off to his laboratory with Nanao and Oliver hot on their heels, the three friends get a horrifying glimpse of the longstanding conflict between mages and Gnostics. This may be the perfect opportunity for Oliver to finally exact his revenge on the mad old man...!

INVESTIGATING MYSTERIOUS TECHNOLOGIES! Roland’s victory over Amy came at a high price, and Rila’s collar was destroyed in the process. Hoping to repair the powerful item, the former assassin searches for its creator, which leads him to an old friend. Meanwhile, tragedy strikes in Rubens when its king is found dead. Only one of the greatest assassins in the world could have done this. It almost seems like Roland himself was responsible...

HAUNTED BY PAST SINS... Rila never wanted to start a war with humanity. Yet it happened nonetheless, and the destruction still weighs on her conscience. While she longs for a way to make amends, a mysterious figure contacts her, offering the former demon lord redemption and then spiriting her away. Naturally, Roland and the others refuse to let anyone take Rila and set out to find her. Their search points them to Yorvensen, a country ruined by the Human-Fiend War. Supposedly, the dead have returned to rebuild the nation...
