1"This Hero Is Too Cautious"
Transliteration: "Kono Yūsha ga Gōman Sugiru" (Japanese: この勇者が傲慢すぎる)		October 2, 2019 (2019-10-02)[13]
Ristarte, a novice Goddess of Healing, is tasked with summoning a hero to save the world of Gaeabrande from a Demon Lord. She picks Seiya Ryuuguuin, a Japanese hero who has unusually high stats. She immediately summons him and while he appears to be ideal for the situation, she soon realizes that she forgot to check to see what Seiya's personality was before picking him, which states that he is "impossibly cautious". After seeking advice from fellow goddess Ariadoa, Ristarte decides to leave Seiya alone to train. A week later, he manages to reach level 15 doing only basic exercises. When they finally travel to Gaeabrande, Seiya tries to buy multiple sets of armor and other items. Outside of town, the first monster they encounter is a basic slime, which Seiya defeats, though he goes overboard, burning the entire area with explosions just in case any fragments are still alive. Just then, they are approached by Chaos Machina, a level 66 demon who is one of the Four Heavenly Kings. She reveals that she was sent out to scout the area in order to kill Seiya before he can pose a threat.

Transliteration: "Shinmai Megami ni wa Ni ga Omo Sugiru" (Japanese: 新米女神には荷が重すぎる)		October 9, 2019 (2019-10-09)[14]
When Ristarte and Seiya flee to the Divine Realm, Chaos Machina decides to attack Edona. Seiya learns time moves differently in the Divine Realm. Two days later, Ristarte receives a message from Chaos Machina demanding that they return or she will execute one resident every ten minutes. Seiya is unconcerned as ten minutes on Gaeabrande is roughly sixteen hours in the Divine Realm. When he is finally ready, Ristarte is shocked to learn he has reached level 21. They return to Gaeabrande where Chaos Machina realizes all Seiya's stats are higher than hers, so she transforms into her true form. When Seiya survives, it is revealed that he has been using the Fake Out skill the whole time to hide his true level, which is actually at level 37. Seiya then destroys Chaos Machina, which earns him and Ristarte the town's admiration. However, concerned that Chaos Machina might regenerate, Seiya blankets her charred remains with explosions. In the process, Edona is also destroyed and the formerly thankful Mayor of Edona now tearfully begs them to leave. When Ristarte and Seiya return to the Divine Realm, Ristarte wonders how the situation with Seiya is going to work out.

Seiya realizes that his level increase has started to slow down. Ariadoa suggests he train with a god, so Ristarte introduces Seiya to the Divine Blade God, Cerceus. As the days go by, Ristarte notices Cerceus becoming depressed and even losing weight. On the fourth day of training, she finds Cerceus hiding as Seiya has already surpassed him but still refuses to let him take a break. Cerceus is now so terrified that when Seiya finally catches him, he throws his sword into the ocean, but Seiya simply drags him away. Meanwhile, Ristarte learns from Ishtar that in response to Chaos Machina's death, the Demon Lord plans on sending the demon Deathmagla and an undead army to the town of Seimul where there are two warriors Ishtar has foreseen will be the hero's allies. Ristarte takes Seiya to Seimul, where they meet Mash and Elulu, two dragonkin descendants, at a church. Seiya reveals that Father Marth is an undead in disguise and defeats him without even drawing his sword. He then thoroughly destroys the body with explosions. In the process, he also destroys the church. Afterwards, he bluntly tells Mash and Elulu he does not need them.
4"I So Don't Need Any Allies"
Transliteration: "Nakama Nante Chō Irana Sugiru" (Japanese: 仲間なんて超いらなすぎる)		October 30, 2019 (2019-10-30)[16]
Outside the destroyed church, Seiya explains to Mash and Elulu the reason why he does not need them. Just then, they are confronted by a group of knights who asks for help. Seiya agrees under the condition that he receives payment. When Seiya and Ristarte arrive in the area where the undead army is, Seiya uses the Meteor Strike skill twice to wipe them out. In Seimul, Elulu tells Ristarte that she has not seen Mash in two days. Heading to Seiya's room, Ristarte learns that Seiya used the Synthesis skill to synthesize a powerful sword. Via a two way viewing mirror, Deathmagla reveals to them that he has kidnapped and tortured Mash. Just as he is about to kill him, Seiya uses the Dimension Blade skill to cut off Deathmagla's hand through the mirror. After receiving Deathmagla's physical location, they arrive there. During the fight, Deathmagla summons Dark Firus. A confident Deathmagla taunts Seiya by revealing what Dark Firus weaknesses are. Seiya explains that he created different magic bracelets allow him to use magic attributes he has not trained with. After he defeats Dark Firus, he turns his attention to a stunned Deathmagla.
5"This Goddess Is Too Spooky"
Transliteration: "Kono Megami ga Bukimi Sugiru" (Japanese: この女神が不気味すぎる)		November 6, 2019 (2019-11-06)[17]
In Seimul, Seiya tells Mash and Elulu that they will be his baggage carriers. Mash then offers to take Seiya to the Dragons' Den, but Seiya wants to head to the Divine Realm first. There, Seiya has Mash train with Cerceus, while Ristarte has Elulu train with Hestiaca, the Goddess of Fire. Afterwards, Ristarte accidentally bumps into Valkyrie, the Goddess of Destruction. Noticing how powerful she is, Seiya tells Valkyrie to train him. Valkyrie angrily confronts him until Ariadoa stops her. She then arranges for him to train with Adenela, the Goddess of War. After three days of training, Mash has improved, while Elulu's training has mostly failed due to her having no affinity for flame magic. As the party is about to leave, Adenela asks Seiya if she can come with him. Seiya bluntly rejects her offer. When they finally arrive at the Dragon Village, they are met by Lagos, who escorts them to see Leviae, the Great Mother of Dragons. Leviae shows Mash how to transform into a dragon. When Elulu asks Leviae to show her how to transform as well, Leviae tells her that she is to become the mighty weapon Igzasion instead.
6"The Great Dragon Mother Is Too Sneaky"
Transliteration: "Ryūō nano ni Zuru Sugiru" (Japanese: 竜王なのにズルすぎる)		November 13, 2019 (2019-11-13)[18]
Leviae explains to the party about a legend that states that the Demon Lord can be defeated using Igzasion, which can only be forged when a female dragonkin of human appearance offers her life. When Mash protests, Leviae reveals that the Demon Lord's forces controls seventy percent of Gaeabrande. Leviae then offers everyone a feast prior to conducting the sacred sword ceremony. Later that night, Ristarte, Seiya, and Mash are enjoying the feast. When Elulu has second thoughts, Seiya saves her. Leviae reveals she anticipated that this might happen so she laced their food with a paralytic. However, Seiya counters that he only pretended to eat, explaining why the drug did not work on him. Leviae decides to confront Seiya. When she refuses to lift Elulu's curse, Seiya fights Leviae head on. It appears that she is winning until she notices that she is about to fall into the abyss. Feigning her surrender, Leviae attempts to kill Seiya. However, he manages to defeat her. Afterwards, Igzasion appears. Once the party leaves the village, Seiya admits to Ristarte that the sword he acquired is not Igzasion. They are then confronted by a group of knights.

Afterwards, the party meets up with Rosalie Roseguard. They then head to Olga Fortress. Inside, the council holds a strategy meeting. However, Seiya feels that the best course of action is for him to head to Divine Realm. When he calls Rosalie out for being too reckless, she angrily confronts him where she continually gets slapped by him. In the Divine Realm, Seiya asks Ristarte to introduce him to a god who can help him. She takes him to the Verdent Forest to meet Mitis, the Goddess of Archery. While Seiya is training, Ristarte, Mash and Elulu runs into Cerceus, who tells them that Adenela is still angry with Seiya. At Ariadoa's house, Ariadoa agrees to unlock Mash and Elulu's dormant powers. Ristarte then heads to Adenela's house. When she tries to warn Seiya, Adenela confronts him.

At Ariadoa's house, Ariadoa shows Ristarte some of the dormant powers that Mash and Elulu have unlocked. When Ristarte tells Ariadoa about Seiya's training with Mitis, a worried Ariadoa reveals that Mitis was banished because she is a nymphomaniacal goddess. When Ristarte attempts to warn Seiya, they see Mitis tied up to a tree. After she frees herself, she lustfully attacks Seiya and Mash. However, Seiya is ultimately able to stop her. The party then heads to Olga Fortress where they learn that Rosalie left. Arriving at Beel Bub's lair, they see him capture Rosalie. Just as he is about to drop her, Ristarte distracts him long enough for Seiya to shoot an arrow at him. Once Rosalie is rescued, Beel Bub turns his attention to Seiya. When he attempts to attack Seiya, he gets killed. After Beel Bub's horde is dealt with, Rosalie reluctantly tells Seiya about a legendary suit of armor in a shrine near the village of Izale.

Before they can celebrate, the Demon Lord again bursts through the doors. Suddenly, Seiya stands up and calls forth a second Gate of Valhalla, finally defeating the Demon Lord once and for all. Seiya then says his goodbyes to his companions and disappears with a smile after he realizes who Ristarte really is. Sometime later, Ristarte is subsequently summoned to be punished. She is informed that she will be sent to save Ixphoria once again, but without any of her divine healing powers, and if she fails, she will be stripped of her divinity. Before Ristarte can accept, Ishtar reveals that the effects of the Chain Destruction were lifted when the second Gate of Valhalla was used.
