Let This Grieving Soul Retire

In a land where treasure hunters scour vaults appearing from the past, Krai Andrey and his friends swore a childhood oath to become the mightiest heroes of all. There’s just one problem: While his old companions have become living legends, Krai is the poster child for mediocrity…and he knows it! But despite his best efforts to leave the treasure-hunting life, he has gained quite the reputation by association-and with it, enormous expectations. Can Krai pursue his dream of retirement, or is he destined to fail forever upwards?

Krai Andrey, still the untalented head of the renowned First Steps clan, has accidentally sent the ever-capable Tino Shade (and a bunch of new recruits) on a challenging and deadly mission. To Krai, it’s a major screw-up of his own making. To Tino, however, it’s the latest example of Krai’s sheer genius and a true test of their mettle! Armed with such optimistic thinking, can the group overcome the phantoms of the White Wolf’s Den…?

Tino Shade’s unexpectedly difficult rescue mission has landed her party in hot water, and the pack of bloodthirsty wolf knights doesn’t seem interested in taking prisoners. With Krai showing up out of the blue, they might have a chance—that is, until he ends up in the same jam! With fearsome foes on all sides, will Krai finally flex the true power of a level 8 treasure hunter…or is he all talk, as usual?

Although Krai and crew may have gotten out of the White Wolf’s Den alive, it’s too soon for celebration—something even more dangerous may have escaped with them: Sitri’s Slime! But while Krai is preoccupied with the elusive monster, another brewing threat decides to make its move. Can Krai handle the looming crisis—even if he doesn’t realize the trouble he’s causing all around him?

As Krai and the First Steps prepare to raid the White Wolf’s Den, Sitri Smart, creator of the monster slime on the loose, shows up just in time! If anyone knows how to deal with the missing slime fiasco, it’s her—except she also has no ideas about its whereabouts or what form it may have taken. Instead, she has more bad news: The threat in the vault is something entirely different and way more dangerous…Just what kind of trouble did Krai send his clan into?

The White Wolf's Den is revealed as the site of the Tower of Akasha's wicked experiments! Sitri, the Grieving Souls' alchemist, races to the scene to take the reins of the investigation, but what awaits her there?

Krai sends a team of hunters to investigate the White Wolf’s Den—and what they find are the deadly fruits of the Akashic Tower’s monstrous research! Not even the breakneck strikes of Liz the Stifled Shadow can take down their mighty golem, but the battle takes an unexpected turn when Krai himself appears...Will Krai show his true strength that most definitely lives up to a perfectly legitimate reputation? And what is Sophia, the brains behind the treacherous mages’ operation, really up to?

All their blood, sweat, and tears...They’ve spilled a bit more than the rest of you. The capital is in a clamor as word spreads about the arrival of a band of high-level hunters—including Arnold Hail, the infamous Dragon Slayer known as the Crashing Lightning! Krai, of course, couldn’t care less about anything other than the upcoming Zebrudian auction, but he’ll be in trouble soon if he doesn’t get his relics charged fast. Thankfully, Sitri has devised a “top-secret training method” that can both charge the relics and boost the whole party’s mana reserves…just in time for a pair of superhuman Noble Spirits who have a bone to pick with the Grievers!

The Foreign Fog, a party from another nation, comes face-to-face with the Grievers, who cause them trouble right away! After getting pummeled by Liz, Arnold Hail directs his rage toward Krai. But Krai isn’t too bothered by that —he’s more worried about the enormous amount of debt he’s incurred!

As Krai’s dynamic with the high-level hunter from abroad worsens, his interest is diverted toward the relic auction starting up in the capital. He has his eye on winning the Reversible Face, and is planning to do just that when a girl named Éclair, the daughter of a nobleman, starts to compete with him for the same prize!
