With the help of Amber, Satou and the other Ring Princesses finally head back to Arnulus, where a dreadful scene awaits them. Satou rushes in to confront the Abyss King, but he soon learns the power of the rings alone is no match for the darkness he's up against. He'll need his wives to pitch in, so it's back to Nokanatika for "bride camp." With her little sister Morion's guidance, Hime will learn to control the magic power that lies dormant inside her!

Satou and his best friend, Hime, have been together for as long as he can remember. So when she tells him she's going back to her home world to get married, his first thought is to follow her and crash her wedding. All goes according to plan, and with a kiss from Hime herself, Satou becomes the new groom! But unbeknownst to Satou, the man who marries Hime is destined to be a hero of immense power and save the world! Is Satou up for the challenge, or is this just too much responsibility for one high schooler to handle?!

It's been a week since Satou and his brides found themselves locked in the Great Elven Library, and short of a serious power boost, their odds of escape are slim! To make matters worse, the scent of the Abyss has begun wafting in, and a new threat approaches...

After achieving their goals, Satou, Hime and the other Ring Princesses head north for the final battle. Along the way, in the Dwarves' dungeon, something unexpected happens to Amber. As Satou closes in on the Abyss King, the other Ring Princesses' wishes turn into strength!!

Desperate to obtain the power of the Ring King’s legendary sword, Satou and Amber begin plotting to sneak into the Empire’s storehouse to steal it. However, two fearsome golems guard the way, and they’re far too powerful to overcome with strength alone! Meanwhile, Hime’s training in light magic continues, and just when she feels like she’s hit a wall, a mysterious young woman appears before her, offering guidance...but can she be trusted?

Bidding farewell to the Land of Water, Satou and the others leave for Idanokan-the long-lost city of the dwarves-to find the last remaining Ring Princess and finally obtain the power needed to vanquish the Abyss King. But time is of the essence, as the moment of reckoning with Arnulus's ancient evil may come far sooner than anticipated. When all hope seems lost, one brave soul prepares to make the ultimate sacrifice...
