About this eBook

Ryo’s life does a 180 after arriving in the city of Lune, where he spars with an expert sword-wielding elf, takes on guild jobs with Abel (his partner-in-adventuring), Abel’s party, and his roommates, and much more! Ryo never could have imagined discovering a whole different side of this new world!

But then monsters spill out of the dungeon in droves and plunge the city into an unprecedented crisis. When Abel and his party set out to investigate, they’re forcibly transferred to the lowest level of the dungeon. There, they encounter a life-and-death situation against devils—creatures who eventually awaken as demon lords. The Handalieu Federation’s meddling and a confrontation with the Inferno Magician ratchet tensions up even more...

With the dangers racking up one by one, Ryo finally gets serious?! “I won’t let you lay a single finger on this city or my friends.” Here comes the explosive second volume recounting the adventures of the strongest, freewheeling water magician!

Ratings and reviews

In the category: Just give up on doing something else and read until done. Rereading is just as good as the first read, maybe the translation is even better or there were some edits because some slow parts were a lot easier to read. Some small spoilers ahead! Maybe some of the side character+houses in the capital could be edited or shortened. There is also some side characters in the big weapon story that could get less attention. Those are the places I remember as slow. The elf village, the enemy is slightly too evil for my taste. This is the sort of thing that drops the stars to 3, don't want to read more. I read to smile and laugh. This is the grading I guess most people use: 5 great, buy at once 4 there were some bad stuff 3 bad 2 unreadable 1 unreadable

Nice
