Yuya Tenjo/Synopsis

==Biography==
Yuya has been ugly and overweight all his life, causing his schoolmates to bully and beat him, and his family to neglect him, except his grandfather, who looked after him and taught him to always help those in need, and he will have a happy life. However, when his grandfather dies, he leaves everything in his will to Yuya, so his parents and two siblings abandon him. Some years later, Yuya lives alone in his grandfather's house, attending school and working part time.
One day after school, a 16-year-old Yuya saves a woman from some thugs, who then beat him up and run away before the police arrive. Some time later, he graduates middle school, but he only finds mean comments in his yearbook. As he tries to leave school, he is pinned by his bullies, who remind him that he is still their errand boy whether or not he is graduating. When Yuya says he needs to get to work, the bullies beat him up as his siblings watch and smirk from a distance.
When a bloodied and bruised Yuya finally arrives at work, his boss scolds and fires him for repeatedly being late. Yuya goes home and has a bland meal, before going to the bathroom and looking at his black eye in the mirror. He has a breakdown and keeps punching the mirror, thinking that his life will never improve, even when he is kind to others and even after graduating. After the mirror is totally destroyed, he punches the wall beside it, but it opens and reveals a secret hatch.
He calms down and curiously enters the secret room, finding many strange artefacts, which Yuya thinks must be his grandfather's travel souvenirs. Deeper in the room, he finds a door with a strange pattern on it; he opens it and it leads him to an impossible room with a window. On a computer-like device, a screen pops up with information telling him that this room is actually connected to another world. The text also explains the various functions that people can use in this world.
In this world, he can store items in , and even control and use the magic door. Confused, Yuya thinks it must be a high-tech video game, so he checks his status, but a devastated Yuya finds all his stats at level 1. He opens the window and sees a dense forest, confirming that this truly another world. He then finds a note on the table written in an unfamiliar language; although he can't read it, he has a language skill in his stats on the screen, which helps him understand the note.
On the note, he learns that the owner of the house was a great sage, but he was about to die when he wrote it, so he left it here in order to leave his house - and everything in it - to whomever found it. Yuya then learns that there is a magical shield protecting the house. He sees a bunch of weapons in the room and examines a sword, but a screen pops up, saying that the weapons is exceptionally lethal and high-level, so he takes it into the desolate yard and swings the sword, but he falls over.
The screen once again pops up in his eyes and raises his weapon skill slightly, but still not reaching level 2. Yuya gets all the weapons he has, which are all god-tier items, and trains with them; although his skills with each weapon raise slightly, they still stay at level 1. When Yuya gives up, a giant monster sees him and attacks. This terrifies Yuya, but it is unable to touch him, as he is still within the force field. Yuya's magical screen reveals that the monster is a Bloody Ogre at level 300.
It rips up a tree and throws it at Yuya, but it just bounces off the force field. In a panic, Yuya grabs a high-level spear, briefly steps outside the force field, and throws it at the creature, piercing its chest and killing it. The spear returns to Yuya as the Bloody Ogre disappears and drops several items. Yuya's skill then shoots up to level 100. After allocating his points, Yuya calls it a day, but when he goes to the door that leads back to his house in the real world, a screen pops up.
It converts his points from killing the monster into , which a confused Yuya gladly picks up. The next morning, Yuya wakes up and is shocked to find that he is taller, no longer fat, and is now very fit. With his pyjamas now too big for him, he looks for other clothes to wear. He finds the sage's magical clothes, whose size will adjust according to the wearer, and also provide magical bonuses. As Yuya goes back to through the bathrooms hatch and to the otherworld, he ponders on the identity of the powerful sage.
As he wanders around the garden, he is approached by a level-200 Slime Monster, but Yuya calmly get out a spear and kills it. It drops coffee slime, as well as a rare necklace, which lets him restore his magic power when he puts it on. He levels up to 150 and gains a detection skill, then goes back inside and eats some coffee slime, which turns out to be quite good. He use his extra money to go back to the real word and buy new clothes.
He spends every following day in the Otherworld, even beginning to enjoy life for once. He trains with his weapons and learns more about the Otherworld, when he is eventually attacked by an Elite Goblin, which he kills after a fight. Some wees later, high school begins. When he arrives on the first day, everyone stares at him, with even his siblings in awe. When he gets to class, he is approached by his bullies, who don't recognise him and instead thinks he's a transfer student. When Yuya says that it's him, everyone - including his siblings - is shocked, refusing to believe him.
When Yuya goes to the bathroom, he is flabbergasted when he finally sees himself in the mirror; he has not only gained a much more healthy physique, but also extremely attractive facial features. Later in the yard, his siblings and his bullies approach and question Yuya, before calling him a loser, when a limo stops on the road by them; a woman gets out of the back of the limo and asks for Yuya. When Yuya asks who she is, she reveals herself to is the same woman that Yuya had saved from thugs weeks ago. When Yuya asks how she knows his name, she admits she looked him up in order to thank him.
She introduces herself as Kaori Houjou, and asks if he'd like to join Ousei Academy, which is an academy for the super elite. Kaori also explains that she is on its student council, and that her father is the academy's chairman. A flattered Yuya says he isn't clever enough to join such a prestigious school. Yuya's brother and then sister interrupt, requesting to join instead, saying that they are superior to Yuya in academics and sports, but Kaori sharply refuses due to them insulting her hero, Yuya. She further elaborates that she has also looked into them, and know what horrible people they are.
Kaori tells Yuya that her school prioritises personality as well as academics, making it no issue for him to enroll. Kaori's assistant suggests bringing him to the school to show him around, so Kaori takes Yuya's hand and happily pulls him into her limo. As the limo leaves, Yuya's bullies stare in shock as his siblings fall to their knees with bitter resentment and hatred. When Yuya arrives at the academy, he meets the chairman, Tsukasa Houjou, who thanks Yuya for saving his daughter. Yuya humbly says it was no big deal, but Kaori claims that he was the only one that helped her.
Tsukasa offers Yuya to join the school, and further offers to pay is tuition as thanks, but a hesitant Yuya thinks he won't fit in, as he believes only geniuses are normally accepted. Tsukasa tell Yuya that geniuses are only normal people that have found the right way to work hard and use less time, whereas Yuya thinks they're gifted with talent, to which Tsukasa says that everyone has unique talents, and through challenges and having fun, he will discover his own talents, since he is still young. He tells Yuya to try the school for a day, when a female teacher named Rie Sawada enters the room.
Tsukasa introduces Rie as a renowned scientist, and says that her classes are popular and easy to understand. Soon after, a worried Yuya prepares for his first class; thinking that it could be no worse than his old school, he enters Rie's classroom, before gradually introducing himself to the class, including Kaori. Yuya becomes nervous when everyone just stares at him with their mouth open, not realising that they are stunned by his handsome looks. He takes the empty seat at the back corner and shares his textbook with the girl beside him, named Yukine Hyoudou, but she acts indifferent towards him.
As Yuya worries that he is already disliked by the class, Kaori wonders if Yuya will fit in, but as the lesson progresses, he finds it normal, except that the students are more actively engaged with the lesson and each other. During breaktime, several friendly students try to befriend him, with some of the girls asking if he's single. A boy named Ryou Igarashi then stops them and ushers them away, before taking Yuya to the cafeteria for lunch. Yuya is shocked at the wide variety of delicious meals on the menu, and that they're all free. They get lunch and sit with a bespectacled boy named Shingo Kurata.
As the guys talk about anime, Yuya is surprised at how normal they are. As he eats, Yuya gradually notices everyone in the cafeteria staring at him, and he thinks it's because of his different uniform. Shingo asks Yuya is he is in any clubs, but when Yuya says he is not, Ryou says he is also not, but that it's due to him being good at all kinds of sports, and can't pick just one. Shingo pulls out a handheld gaming console and reveals that he is part of the gaming club. Yuya is surprised that the school allows consoles, and Shingo explains that it's fine as long as they aren't used during class.
As they discuss video games, Yuya feels more comfortable with them. At the end of the day, Yuya meets with Tsukasa and says that he enjoyed the day, deciding to join the school. As Yuya leaves, he runs into Kaori, who asks if he is joining. After hearing the answer, a very glad Kaori invites him to join her after school, and they shop around a popular area. Yuya asks if this is where she hangs with her friends, but she says she doesn't hang out often, as people are hesitant about her status and her father, but she says that Yuya is different.
Becoming nervous, Yuya suggests checking out the shop. Since most of them cost over 700 yen (about 4-5 s) each, Yuya becomes glad that he got money from the Otherworld. Yuya and Kaori eat and have a good time, and Yuya even wants to try more flavours, but then changes his mind, as he doesn't want to be fat again. Yuya then asks Kaori how she recognised him after his transformation; Kaori says that, although he was a bit slimmer, she recognised his eyes. She then offers him a bite of her crêpe, which he accepts, albeit with mild embarrassment.
When Kaori realises Yuya's embarrassment, he panics and offers her a bite of his own crêpe, which she nervously accepts, all while girls sat in the same café watch on with smirks, thinking thy are a very cute couple. That night, Yuya goes back to the Otherworld and dons a full set of armour, taking on monsters despite his own fears. Now at level 235, he realises that his levelling speed has slowed down, so he considerers leaving the house and venturing beyond the force field to find stringer monsters to take on. However, as he leaves his land, he hears a scream in the distance.
With his spear in hand, Yuya runs to the noise and finds several human soldiers dead, before seeing a level-200 Goblin General harassing a beautiful human woman. Although scared, Yuya throws his spear, but the Goblin General deflects it, when Yuya jumps up and slams his foot into its face, defeating it. As Yuya turns to the girl, she points out another Goblin behind him, which attacks him. Yuya fills his foe with arrows before splitting it in half with his sword, but the girl passes out as Yuya checks on her. Yuya hears men approaching, so he uses his invisibility skill. As knights approach, Yuya learns that she is a Princess named Lexia Von Arselia.
Yuya returns to his house back on Earth, and later wonders if the princess is okay. Since Yuya now has plenty money to spare, he goes to the mall to buy new clothes, but as he roams the mall, people stare at him, thinking he's an actor or model. Meanwhile, a modelling director named Hikari shouts at the manager of Shou, a professional male model, who is late for a photoshoot. As Shou's manager gets a call from Shou explaining that he's on his way, an angry Hikari curses him for not respecting the time of the team, as well as the other model, Miu Midou. Since the theme of the shoot is centred on being a couple, Hikari cannot do it with just Miu, so he looks for a quick replacement in the mall.
Meanwhile, as Yuya shops, two girls approach him and ask about him, even offering to help carry his things. Thinking it's a sales tactic, Yuya turns them down as politely as he can. The girls stare in astonishment as he walks to the escalator, before they argue with each other about him. As Yuya descends the escalator, Hikari and his assistant are ascending it, when Hikari sees Yuya. When Yuya enters another shop, they follow him; Hikari explains that they want him to replace a model for their shoot. Although nervous, Yuya considers all the staff who are counting on him, so he accepts.
For the photoshoot, Yuya poses as the boyfriend of Miu as Hikari photographs them in many scenarios and outfits. Although Yuya tries to look "sexier" for one of the scenes, Miu says he is doing well for his first time. As Yuya is captured by her looks, she thanks him for saving the day, when she begins getting closer to Yuya. Later, for another scene, Hikari notices that Yuya is rather stiff in his posture, but Yuya is impressed at Miu's professionalism. For the scene, Miu gets closer to Yuya, and he panics when her breasts push against his arm, when the director tells her to get even closer.
Miu wraps her arms around Yuya and pushes her breasts against his chest, making him blush greatly, when the crowded mall gathers from the balconies to watch the shoot. Meanwhile in the Otherworld, Princess Lexia stares out her bedroom window as she ruminates on being saved. She walks out of her castle when her lead knight, Owen, asks where she's off to, while the other knights stare at her with confusion. She says she's off to the Dark Forest to find the man that saved her life, but Owen says it's impossible to live in the forest, but she insists that someone saved her, and must thank him, before she tells Owen to go with her.
Back on Earth, Yuya is tired after the photoshoot as women around the mall still look at him, when Miu offers him her handkerchief to wipe himself down. This is also Yuya's first time wearing such fashionable clothes. Yuya thinks Miu is great at modelling, but she says that she just got used to it, and that she made several mistakes when she was new. When Yuya wonders why Miu is a model, she says that she just wanted to be noticed, as her parents were always too busy for her, and that she kept modelling after getting fans that cheered her on, and that she makes others happy.
She explains that he could also do it, but that he should go his own pace, reminding him to just enjoy all the moments on the way. As they chat, Hikari secretly takes more photos of them, but Shou suddenly turns up, exciting the mostly-female crowd. Shou tells Miu that they can now do their shoot, soon pushing his hands against a wall and trapping her as he asks her out for drinks afterwards. When Yuya interrupts him after seeing Miu uncomfortable, Shou asks who he is. When Yuya answers, Shou goes to punch him, but Yuya grabs his arm and body-slams him.
As everyone reacts with shock, Yuya thinks about how slow the punch felt, then worries bout causing a scene ad getting into trouble, but the crowd cheers for him. Shou wonders why he lost, even though he does . When Hikari approaches, he tells Shou to leave, and that his assistant captured it on video. When Shou and his manager leave, Miu thanks Yuya and says that Shou has followed her around in the past. Hikari tells Yuya that Shou's behaviour was always unpleasant, and that he is now unlikely to find modelling work after crossing the line like that.
Hikari asks if Yuya would like more modelling jobs, and Yuya thanks him for the opportunity to work with so many professionals, but he turns it down because he thinks he isn't capable of doing the job properly. Hikari respects his choice and gives him all the clothes from the shoot as a token of gratitude, since they cannot pay him due to being an amateur; Yuya says the experience was enough, but Hikari insists on it after Yuya saved their shoot.
Later that day, as Hikari and Miu are being driven away, Hikari notes that Yuya's refusal was a shame, knowing he would've become a star model. Looking at the photos on her laptop, Miu thinks about how different Yuya was. Hikari tease her about having a crush on Yuya when he notices her blushing. Soon after, Yuya's face has become viral online, and modelling agencies try to find out ho he is. A female high-ranking modelling agent is seen ordering her associate to find him before another agency does, since he had modelled with Miu.
Meanwhile in the Otherworld, Princess Lexia's knights are seen struggling to defend her against Goblins in the forest, when she is about to be jumped by a Goblin. However, it is quickly slain by Yuya, who effortlessly kills the rest of them. Now truly knowing that he is real, Lexia watches in awe. As Yuya treats an injured knight, Lexia approaches and tells him that she came here seeking him out. When Yuya asks what she wants, she asks him to marry her, shocking him and all the knights.
Owen asks what she is thinking, reminding her of her royal status, saying that Yuya is a stranger, but Lexia insists it to be . The two argue, but Yuya interrupts and says it's dangerous in the forest, inviting them to come to his house with him, surprising them to learn hat he actually lives in the forest. The group are later surprised by his house, and Owen introduces himself as Captain of the Arselia Knights, and introduces Lexia as the First Princess of the Arselian Kingdom.
Owen mentions that Lexia is second in line for the throne, and she thanks him again, but Yuya tries to watch his beheviour now knowing that she's royalty, but Owen tells him not to worry since it's not an official visit, and that he is their saviour. Yuya introduces himself, but they find his name strange. Lexia fantasises about him being royalty from another country, but Owen worries about other possibilities. Owen reveals that they went there to find Yuya to thank him for saving Lexia some time ago.
Lexia tells Yuya that she has always thought of him since that day, and that it's the first time she's ever felt that way. She proposes to him once more, but this overwhelms Yuya, who thinks marriage is far too sudden, making Lexia believe that love isn't so simple. Thinking about every romance book she's read, love must come with obstacles, and it'd be boring if it was so easy, so she instead asks to simply be friends. Yuya nervously agrees. Owen also mentions another reason they came; the king would like him to visit the palace.
Owen tells a hesitant Yuya that it's a royal command, and that he can't leave until he accepts the offer, so Yuya accepts. Owen says it'll take five days to get there, but when Yuya thinks about school, he requests Owen to postpone the meeting, which he gladly does. After recuperating, they all part ways with Yuya, and as Lexia is driven away in her carriage, she calls out to Yuya and tells him to prepare himself, as she plans to win his heart the next time they meet.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the royal capitol, an assassin is seen reporting to a masked man about his failure to kill Lexia, that the assassins wound up in the forest and were killed by monsters. As the masked man wonders how Lexia returned from the forest unharmed, he warns the man not to fail again. He removes his mask and reveals his disfigured face, revealing that he is also part of the royal family, as he swears revenge on Lexia.
Later on, Yuya is back in his house marking his calendar for when he plans to meet the king in May. He then equips his new school uniform and goes to school for the first time proper. As he walks down the streets, everyone stares at him in awe of his looks. When Yuya arrives, Tsukasa greets him but apologises for not having time to talk, but reminds him to just enjoy school. Yuya goes to a class and is introduced to the students by Rie as an official student. Yuya spots Ryou and Shingo in the class, who wave at him.
Later, during a game on the yard, a student named Roy scores a goal as the girls cheer for him. Yuya is impressed as he watches from afar, when he is approached by a girl named Kaede Kazama. She asks why he doesn't join, to which Yuya says he has no gym clothes yet, when Roy's teammate, Akira Ichinose, messes up a goal and kicks the ball at Kaede's face, but Yuya quickly stops it with his foot and even scores a goal.
As everyone wonders how he moved so fast, Yuya offers Kaede a hand to get up, but she is too stunned by his rizz to move, when Akira rushes over and gets on his knees while he apologises profusely, even offering to become her servant, but Kaede says she's fine. Ryou then approaches and vows for Akira, saying he's just a bit quirky, to which Akira thanks Ryou. Later in the girls' changing room, Kaori prepares to change into her gym clothes whilst all other girls are talking about Yuya, thinking he's a prince of sorts, and Kaede comes up to her and tells her about what happened earlier. The girls assume Yuya has a girlfriend, but Kaori and Kaede debunk this theory.
Later on, Yuya is in class when he looks out the window and sees Kaori's class of girls on the yard, and they wave to each other, when the gate is suddenly knocked down by bikers with baseball bats, who ride on the yard and surround the girls. All students watch from the windows and recognise the gang as the Red Ogres, a dangerous group of delinquents, run by Yuya's old bully, Takeshi Araki. Yuya sees his siblings with the group. When Kaori asks what they want, she and Yuya's siblings recognise each other; Yuya's brother says they want revenge for rejecting them while accepting Yuya.
Kaori warns that the police are on their way, but Yuya's sister says they have time to abduct her, and the Red Ogres surround her. Yuya stands to help, but finds his legs shaking; despite having fought much worse foes in the Otherworld, his emotional damage from the bullies leaves him frozen. However, when his friends worry about him, Yuya snaps out of it and jumps out of the window, despite being on the fourth floor, shocking the class. Landing unharmed, Yuya dodges the gang's attacks and disarms them, before running to save Kaori.
Yuya is stopped by a very large Red Ogre, who charges at him, but instead of even budging, Yuya tosses him aside, knocking him out as he crashes through a bike. The gang leader rides his bike at Yuya, but he misses and crashes his bike, destroying it as the police arrive. As all the Red Ogres are arrested, the students are made to return to class. Yuya asks if Kaori is okay, but she faints in his arms, and they stare into each other's eyes. As Yuya's brother insults the gang for being useless, the leader lifts him by his neck.
Yuya's sister begs him to let go, but he kicks her to the ground, when Yuya breaks him free. The leader gets up and charges at Yuya, who then snaps his head to him and stares him down, stopping him in his tracks as he wets himself. Yuya's siblings ask why he saved them, and he explains that, even though they have always treated him like scum, he still couldn't just abandon his family; Yuya's siblings burst into tears as they get on their knees and apologise profusely.
When Yuya's friends approach, he apologises for the commotion he caused, but they're all amazed by his skill, wondering how he even jumped four floors down and lived. Later that evening, Yuya explores the Otherworld in his armour, remembering Owen's warning that the forest is the most dangerous place in the land, infested with monsters capable of destroying cities. As Yuya searches for monsters, he hears a loud whimper; he finds a small creature that looks like a black wolf pup, being attacked by a monster.
The puppy glows with a dark energy, but is too weak to fight. An invisible Yuya sees that the monster is a level-600 Orc King. Believing his doesn't stand a chance, Yuya abandons them, but when the Orc King continues the attacks, Yuya is unable to leave, thinking about what hi grandfather would do. Yuya quickly goes to distract the Orc King, but he kills it with one blow. Yuya feels embarrassed at being more scared than he should be, thinking back to when he slew a Bloody Ogre when he was level 1.
He wonders who the sage really was, to have created such powerful weapons. He then offers the small canine a health potion as it growls at him, but it passes out. He nurses it back to health and it takes a liking to him. After talking to him, Yuya learns that the canine has no family or home, so he takes him in. Yuya gains taming skill as he obtains is new companion. He examines the canine's stats, and is impressed to find out it's actually a level-500 Black Fenrir. Yuya names him "Night", who jumps into his arms and licks him.
Yuya and Night go home as Yuya examines the Orc King's loot; a very high-level magic stone, a magic hair brush that stimulates hair growth, and the Orc King's sword and armour. While the sword and armour are unusable by humans, they can be reforged. After Yuya brushes Night with the brush, he checks his stats and sees that he's still only at level 235. Although confused, he thinks he'll eventually figure out the levelling system.
Back on Earth the next morning, Yuya leaves Night in his house. At school, Yuya asks his friends if there's a pet shop nearby, as he's just "adopted" a "dog". Overhearing this, Kaede gets excited and asks to see pictures of it, but she apologises for getting too close and making Yuya nervous. Yuya says he doesn't have pictures because he doesn't even have a phone, which weirds out all his friends. Yuya explains that he's never needed a smartphone.
His friends tell him of a pet shop, but cannot go with him after school, so Kaede offers to take him. Yuya thanks her, while she thinks it could become a date, but she tells him not to worry about it. That evening, Night rushes into Yuya's arms when he gets home, and he shows him all the things that Kaede picked out. Using his new collar, they decide to go for a walk. In the park, many young women stare at Yuya and Night and whisper how cute they both look.
Kaori runs into Yuya, who introduces her to Night; she pets Night and finds him adorable, while onlookers think she and Yuya look like a perfect couple. Kaori asks Yuya about Night's breed, but he says he doesn't know. Kaori expresses her happiness for Yuya and Night. When a girl calls to Yuya, he turns to see it's Miu, who turns out to also live in thee area, and often walks in the park. Onlookers are stunned to see Yuya now with two beautiful young women.
As people begin recognising Miu, they draw a larger crowd. Not wanting to make a scene, Miu leaves, telling Yuya that she looks forward to bumping into him again. An anxious Kaori asks if that was Yuya's girlfriend, but a shocked Yuya says he only met her once before, and that she's too good for him, to which Kaori strongly disagrees. An old woman suddenly screams as a large man flees with her bag. As Kaori wonders what to do, Yuya unhands Night's lead and tells him to get the mugger.
Yuya checks on the old woman on the floor as Night drags the mugger to them, but the mugger breaks free and charges at Kaori with a knife, but Yuya grabs his wrist, disarms him, and restrains him. As the crowd cheers, Kaori thanks Yuya or saving her a third time. After the police arrive, Yuya and Night go home and explore the Otherworld, slaying many monsters and gaining experience.
They come across another Orc King, but Night now kills it by himself by biting its neck. Later on, they find a level-630 Crystal Deer, so Yuya turns invisible to observe its impressive magic stat. As Yuya ponders how to approach, the Crystal Deer sees through his invisibility and attacks; Yuya and Night split up. Night eventually gets a hit on it neck, and Yuya finishes it off. Yuya loots it and finds a curious little cube, finding out that it's a portable bath set, which automatically stays clean and has a privacy feature to stop people looking in. He and Night return to their Otherworld house and have a relaxing bath in the safety of the force field.
The next morning, they fight a Needle Roller, which looks like a giant porcupine with large metal spines. Yuya dodges its fast attacks and kills it when it gets stuck on a wall. Yuya reaches level 240 and Night reaches 510, when the wall where the Needle Roller got its spikes stuck eventually collapses and reveals a cave. They explore it and find it empty, when they reach a larger room at the end of the cave with torches on the walls, which automatically light up as they enter. They find a human skeleton holding a book, which turns out to be the sage's diary.
Yuya reads the book and learns that the sage was able to learn and master every skill, becoming as powerful as a god. The gods even requested he join them, but he declined. The book then begins addressing the sage's successor, warning them that people will fear them as they get stronger. Yuya wonders how he can prevent that, when he hears the sage's voice telling him to find people he can trust. The sage asks Yuya if there's anything he'd like to know, so Yuya says he'd like to learn magic.
The sage fills his book with all his magical knowledge, but says that Yuya cannot perform magic, as he doesn't have the magical circuits in his body, since he's from another world. However, he decides to give his own magical circuits to Yuya while telling him to find happiness and live a good life, bidding him farewell. Yuya and Night return to their Otherworld house, and Yuya reads the book to learn magic. He begins by sensing any surrounding magical energy, learning the magic energy manipulation skill.
He learns that he just needs to gather magical energy in his hand, then imagine whatever energy type he wishes to use. They both go outside to practice; Yuya manages to conjure a ball of water, and Night does the same. However, when Yuya fires the water ball at a tree, he discovers himself to be ridiculously strong, as the tree now has a hole clan through it. Meanwhile at the royal capitol, Owen reports to the king and tells him about Yuya, but when Owen tells him that the princess proposed to Yuya, the king rages and thinks that Yuya seduced his daughter.
The next day at school, Yuya daydreams about the sage's book warning him about using magic, as his techniques are not even commonly known in the Otherworld. The teacher, Rie, reminds the class of their camping trip the following week, then sorts them into groups of four. Yuya is grouped with Kaede, Akira, and a girl named Rin Kanzaki. Kaede is excited for the trip, but Yuya says he has no camping equipment, so Kaede suggests they go shopping.
Yuya, Ryou, Shingo, Kaede, and Rin later leave school and go to the mall, but Ryou and Shingo are surprised to find that Kaori will be joining them. At the mall, Ryou tells Yuya he can't believe he's friends with Kaori, since most people find her unapproachable, due to being the chairman's daughter, but Kaori just tells them to think of her as any other student. Yuya asks where Akira is, then Shingo says he couldn't make it. They head inside and help Yuya pick out a backpack. They later hang out at an arcade.
Shingo gets excited at an action figure of his favourite character being in a claw machine, but says he sucks at the game. Using his skill to detect weakness, Yuya plays the claw machine and detects the object's weak spot, beating the game and winning the boxed figure. An impressed Kaede then asks Yuya to win her a stuffed cat, which he successfully does.
Once Yuya has won prizes for all his friends, Kaori says it was her first time at an arcade, and thanks him for winning her a badge of a cute otter as she clips it to her shirt. Later, the three girls decide to shop for clothes, so the three guys take a break in a café. Yuya thanks his friends for being able to hang out with friends for the first time in his life, but a fire alarm rings as everyone evacuates, but Yuya worries about the girls, thinking the fire would be closer to them.
The guys reach a staircase, and Yuya asks the guard if he's seen them, when Kaede calls Ryou as she is stuck upstairs. Yuya rushes upstairs and reaches the large fire, which overpowers the sprinklers, so Yuya uses magic to cover his body with water. He rushes to the three girls, now unconscious, and uses his detection skill to find that there is nobody else stranded. Yuya picks up the girl and covers them with water.
Outside, Ryou and Shingo tell officers that their friends are trapped inside, but are told that they can do nothing until the fire is out. As the roof collapses, Kaori drops her badge when Yuya reaches a dead end, so he uses magic to blast a hole in the wall and escape that way. As the building shakes, they emerge. As the girls are treated, firefighters reprimand Yuya for his recklessness. When Kaori's father arrives, he thanks Yuya for saving her again.
Yuya then gives Kaori back her badge, after he picked it up. Kaori hugs her father, and Yuya thinks what a family should be like, but he thinks he doesn't rally have anyone like that, but when he gets home that evening, Night rushes into his arms and comforts him, realising he is his family. In the Otherworld, Yuya later wonders what other magic he can learn, remembering that magic is just the materialisation of his imagination, so he considers using magic to travel. Focusing on where he wants to go, he manages to create a portal leading to the forest.
Although excited that it works, he can only do this with places he's already been, but he thinks he can uses to get home to feed Night during his school trip. They explore a cave with Goblins in, which he kills with his legendary sword, finding much rare loot. Yuya thinks his teamwork with Night is improving, but when they exit the cave, Yuya wants to head home, but Night whimpers as he wants to continue. When Yuya says he needs to prepare for the school trip, Night runs off and spots something. Yuya turns invisible and sneaks up on several Goblins cornering an injured woman.
As Yuya goes to save her, Night bites his cape and pulls him back, when the girl suddenly takes down a Goblin, before being knocked out, Yuya and Night then kill the rest, when dozens more come out of the trees; Yuya uses his magic whip to wrap around them and crush them to death. Yuya thinks the whip is overpowered, as it can hit multiple targets and never misses. Yuya carries the girl to his house, but Night barks in protest, when she wakes up in his arms, surprised she's being carried. When she falls on the floor, Yuya offers her a health potion.
She takes it, and it heals all her wounds, surprising her with its effectiveness, making her wonder who he is. Yuya introduces himself and Night, but Night is still growling at her, and Yuya wonders why. The girl introduces herself as Luna, saying she was training in he forest, when she was attacked by the Elite Goblins. She asks where they are, and Yuya admits he killed them, so she asks what he's doing here, and he says he was also training, but this surprises her. Luna apologises for being so filthy and sweaty, and asks if there's a river nearby.
Yuya activates his bath and tells her she can use this. As she bathes and wonders how he got the rare bath, Yuya and Night keep watch as Yuya tells her he got it by killing a Crystal Deer. Luna is impressed at Yuya slaying such a monster, and he admits it's normal for the forest, so Luna admits she's here on a client's request, though he doesn't hear this. She then asks him to train with her, since they're both already training there. Yuya feels bad about leaving her alone, so he agrees.
Later, the show each other new techniques as they spar, and they eventually kill monsters together, but Yuya soon has to leave for a school trip, which Luna doesn't understand, so Yuya just apologises and leaves. Luna thanks him for his help. After the last day of training, Yuya spends the night in the bath at his house, when Luna - wearing only a towel - walks over and joins him. An embarrassed Yuya tries to leave, but Luna pulls him back in and holds him, saying him how much his time has meant to her, and that she'll always treasure it. She offers to wash his back, when her towel drops off.
Yuya's class go on the trip the following day, and he and his friends play cards on the coach with Akira, Kaede, and Rin. Kaede notes that Yuya looks tired, so he admits he got little sleep that night, though he doesn't say it was because he was busy with Luna in his hot tub. Yuya then wins cards for the fifth time in a a row, but he thinks it must be because he'd put so many point into his luck stat. He then decides to sleep on the coach.
Once they arrive, the students get changed into warm clothes and form an assembly, where Rie tells them they must go camping in the wooded area for two days and survive off the land, since there are fish in the river and plants to eat. Kaede inquires about the plants being poisonous, but Rie says the school doctor is on standby, though the students find her creepy, as they often here screams from her office. Akira says they'll just not eat for a day, but Rie says it's all part of the lesson.
She mentions that it's a competition between the classes. Yuya asks if the winners get a reward, but Rie says it affects her bonus, so he tells them to do their best, but the students seem unimpressed. The students - in their groups of four - are dumped in the forest, Yuya's group wonder what to do first, but Akira says it'll be easy, but the other three ignore him, Rin suggests that Yuya and Kaede fish, while she and Akira look for plants. However, Yuya and Kaede reach the river and find the rest of the students already fishing, though they see Ryou, who tells them that the good spots are taken, so Kaede suggests trying something else.
However, Yuya uses his detection skill; he takes Kaede to another spot. The river is teeming with fish, but Kaede thinks the water is too shallow for their fishing rods to work, so Yuya removes hi shoes and walks into the river holding the bucket. Yuya thinks the fish are slower than the Otherworld monsters, and remembers Luna's teachings. He catches a fish with his hand, impressing Kaede, but he keeps going and catches more and more, while other students look over and think he's crazy. Once done, Kaede says Yuya may have caught too many, to which he admit he got carried away. He then considers thanking Luna for her advice.
Meanwhile in the Otherworld, in a dark part of town, Luna is in a shop full of puppets, and is practicing her thread ability on them, decapitating them all at once, noting that her powers have improved. She thinks about Yuya, but she is actually an assassin, and has bee killing since childhood, but she finds Yuya different, wishing she'd met him sooner so that her life would've been different, but she tells herself to forget him, because she is the "Headhunter". She prepares for her next target: Lexia.
Meanwhile on Earth, Yuya and Kaede meet up with Rin and show her the bucket full of fish, and Rin is shocked to know that he caught all of them by hand. Yuya then wonders why Akira is wailing on the ground; he complains that Rin told him to test mushrooms they'd found. Yuya secretly checks Akira's stats, but luckily find that he is not poisoned. Rin then shows all the plant they gathered, and Yuya praises them as he discards some poisonous mushrooms.
All students then go back to the building to show the staff their findings so they can check the food. Yuya runs into Kaori, who asks how his team's getting on. After a chat, Kaori is beckoned back to her own team, and Akira notes to him how close Yuya and Kaori are with each other, wishing he could be more like Yuya. Yuya's team then show their food to Rie, who compliments them on being the first team to find so much edible food. Getting excited about her bonus, she also mentions they'll be graded for their cooking.
Rie asks them who will cook, and Yuya's friends point to him before he can open his mouth, so she wishes him luck and tells him to do his best, adding that her bonus depends on him, but Yuya says she shouldn't be so transparent about her motives. Later, Yuya uses his cooking training from the Otherworld to prepare an impressive meal with what he got. When his three friends eat his food, a tipsy Rie - wine bottle in hand - comes over and is shocked by Yuya's banquet.
She tries some, and after some hesitation, says that even though the school lunches are made by first-rate chefs, Yuya's food is even better, and his friends agree. Yuya wonders how it's possible, but although he'd only ever cooked for himself, he's glad to see other enjoy his cooking. After the meal, Rie asks Yuya if he'll marry her, surprising everyone. She admits she can't cook or clean, always focusing on her research, and has never been in a relationship. She calls him a catch and asks him to marry and take care of her.
Due to the fact that Rie is female, everyone ignores the fact that she is an outright nonce (specifically an ), and they simply just tell her it's a bad idea. Kaede even says that Yuya is no good, but this makes him think he must be a failure as a person, but Rie insists on marrying him, even saying she'd wait for him. A nervous Yuya tells her that it's inappropriate, but says she's a good teacher. An elated Rie crushes Yuya in a hug as Yuya's face is buried in her chest. As Kaede tries to split them, Akira thinks Yuya is the luckiest guy in the world.
Later that night, Yuya teleports home to check on Night, and makes him a meal. As he watches him eat, Yuya thinks how much he likes making people happy with his food. Yuya later teleports back to the camp, where all the boys are getting ready to shower. Once undressed, Yuya is looked upon by every guy in the shower room with envy. Akira tells the oblivious Yuya that he is insanely ripped and good looking.
Meanwhile in the girls' shower room, Rin annoys Kaede by sneaking behind her and grabbing her large breasts, saying all the boy must like her, when Kaori and Yukine pass by. Kaede says that Rie wanted to marry Yuya, surprising Kaori. Kaede considers making a move on Yuya, when Kaori asks her if she likes him, which Kaede quickly denies, though Rin thinks she is too obvious, but Kaori glumly wonders about Yuya's preference in girls.
The next morning, some students find their tents and things trashed, but their belongings are still there. The group decide to look for breakfast, but Akira get scared of scratches on a tree, remembering that Rin had used him to lure away bears after he ate mushrooms. As they look around, a appears, so they sprint away. When the bear chases them, the other students panic and flee with Rie to safety, but Rie trips and falls. Yuya goes back to her as the bear goes to strike her with its claw.
Yuya grabs its paw and wrestles it, before body-slamming it and knocking it out. When Yuya checks on Rie, she says she'd normally lecture him on fighting bears, but makes an exception due to him saving her life, even offering marriage once more, which he politely declines. The staff tie up the bear as Yuya wonders what will happen to it. As it awakens, Kaori says they'll use it as a guard bear, and they will eat him if he attacks another person. The bear sweats profusely at this information.
Once the camping trip has concluded, Yuya is no back home, and checks his calendar to find that he is scheduled to meet the Otherworld king, with Lexia riding to meet him. An invisible Yuya finds several Demons in the Otherworld forest, so he and Night kill them before they can attack Lexia and her knights. However, the last Demon catches Yuya's sword, so he instead pulls out a hammer the size of a large child and flattens the demon, with Yuya once again taken aback by the sage's weapons.
It drops a strange helmet, so Yuya tries it on, while a white rabbits pies on him, thinking he is the one, when Lexia's party approaches, but when Owen becomes worried, Yuya removes the helmet. Lexia's party stop and are glad to see Yuya. Owen asks if he's ready to see the king, formally inviting him to the palace. As Lexia bows to Yuya, Night jumps on her and pushes her to the ground, when a tree falls where she was standing. Yuya cuts it in half with his swords, realising that Night was protecting her.
Yuya then sees Luna's spool of deadly thread from her thread ability. As Owen wonders what's going on, a masked Luna curses herself for failing, when she is knocked out by an invisible Yuya, who is shocked when her mask falls off. Lexia then joins Yuya and asks who the woman is, and he tells her that she tried to kill her, making her realise that Night is a friend. Not wanting to believe Luna is a bad person, Yuya asks Lexia's permission to take Luna back to his house and question her.
When Lexia grants Yuya permission, Owen and his knights run to the area, telling her not to run off on her own, and she tells them with a mischievous grin that she'll be going to Yuya's house. Yuya asks Lexia if she's sure, and she replies that she's also curious about the attack on her, and about his relationship with Luna. Yuya teleports the four of them back to his house, leaving the knights behind. At Yuya's house, Lexia is surprised by the teleportation, while Yuya puts Luna on his bed.
As Yuya explains how he knows Luna, Lexia becomes more interested in the teleportation, so Yuya explains that it was just magic. In disbelief, Lexia explains that teleportation magic is from fairytales, and that nobody has been confirmed to ever use it. She says that, if anybody found out about his teleportation power, it could even lead to war, so she makes him promise not to use it in front of anyone. She then suddenly calls to Luna, asking how long she wants to pretend being asleep. Realising she's been busted, Luna opens her eyes and sits up.
Lexia then notes how Yuya also knew she was feigning sleep, and that he was just being nice and playing along. Lexia asks Luna who she is, but Luna gives up and just requests being killed already. Yuya then asks Luna, so he gives in and says that she was an orphaned child who scavenged to survive, before being taken in by a man who taught her literacy and the ways of assassination, and so she eventually joined the Dark Guild. Yuya asks about the Dark Guild, and Lexia explains that they're an organisation that orchestrate various crimes.
Luna explains that she's completed countless assassinations, even becoming known as the Headhunter, surprising Lexia, as she has heard that name before. Yuya wonders if Night knew all along, then he realises that's why Night was never friendly to Luna when they first met. Luna reveals her assignment to kill Lexia, but now that she failed, her own death is guaranteed, as she will either be executed by law enforcement, or assassinated by the Dark Guild. When Yuya gets worried, Luna asks why he cares, since they only briefly trained together.
Yuya says that the short time with her meant a lot to him, and that he sees her as a friend. Luna says it's too late for for, when Lexia interrupts with the offer to work as her bodyguard instead. Luna asks what she means, so Lexia says that only she and Yuya know of Luna's assignment, so they'll keep it a secret, and that it'll be harder for the Dark Guild to kill Luna if she is the princess' guard. Luna thinks Lexia is insane, saying she's a criminal, thinking of all her dead victims and the blood on her hands, but Lexia takes her hand and says she has pretty hands.
Lexia wonders how Luna's hands are so soft, to which Luna says it was from Yuya's bath, before declining again, so Lexia tells her off, and that Luna is the loser, and so has no choice but to follow her order. Meanwhile in the forest, the knights are fought by Goblins and are forced to retreat, leaving Lexia's life in Yuya's hands. Meanwhile, Luna can't believe the situation, thinking Lexia is a tyrant, but Lexia's first order for Luna is to tell more about Yuya's bath, so Yuya explains that Yuya has a rare bath item that can shrink to a small box, that restores fatigue and beauty.
Thinking it sounds incredible, Lexia demands to use it, so she tells Luna to use the bath with her as she mischievously invites Yuya, who nervously declines. In the bath, Luna tells how relaxing it is, when Lexia suddenly asks her if she likes Yuya, but Luna says they're just friends, but Lexia says she can tell she likes him. Luna denies it again, so Lexia tells of her plan to marry him. Luna objects, so Lexia says there should be no problem if they're just friends. Luna becomes unsure of her feelings, but Lexia declares that she is definitely in love with him.
Lexia says they will bow over him, and that she'll be the winner if she marries Yuya. Initially confused, Luna thinking about Lexia taking Yuya makes her accept the battle for him, and she says she want shim to herself. Lexia says that Luna is now her guard and her rival. After the bath, a very relaxed Lexia and Luna sit at the table as Yuya says he'll make dinner, when Lexia offers to cook, but he struggles to even cut a potato, even sending her knife flying into the wall where Yuya and Luna were standing, almost killing one of them, so Yuya cooks instead.
The girls love the food, and Lexia compliments him as she hugs his arm. Luna blushes from jealousy, and so asks Yuya to feed her, with the excuse that she has trouble moving her sore bones. Yuya thinks about ho hard he hit her, so he agrees to spoon-feed her. As Luna swallows her food, she smirks at Lexia, who also jealously asks to be fed as well. Yuya says she's not injured, but she uses her authority and commands him, leaving him no choice. That night, Yuya lets the girls sleep in the bed as he takes the spare bed, thinking that it was a hard but good day.
The next day, the four meet the knights in the forest, and Yuya apologise to Owen for leaving them. Owen asks about Yuya's friends, so he introduces him to Night. Owen thanks Night for saving Lexia, before asking about Luna. Lexia bluntly explains that she was an assassin that tried to kill her, but will now be working for her since she failed. As this information shocks everyone, Luna facepalms ad shakes her head at Lexia. Owen immediately has the knights surround Luna and point their swords at her, but Lexia order them to stand down.
Owen refuses, saying she can't be trusted, but Lexia says they shared the same bed and still she didn't assassinate her. Owen eventually gives in, saying they'll keep a close eye on her. Yuya then raises a hand and says he cannot go to the palace, since they spent the day at his house instead, and no longer has the time. Owen tells him to visit whenever he can, pointing to the road that leads to a village, where he can get directions to the capitol. Lexia waves goodbye to Yuya as she departs in her carriage, while Luna follows on a horse.
However, Luna suddenly gets off and sprints to Yuya and kisses his cheek, before tearfully thanking him for everything. Devastated, Lexia's jaw hits the floor as she sees this, and she demands they go back so she can also kiss him, but Owen ignores her with a sly smirk. As Luna leaves with the others, Yuya thinks about the kiss and wonders if Luna likes him, but he shrugs it off. He and Night find a small pond to bathe in, but as they sit in the pond, they notice a strange, brown, furry, swine-like creature - about the same size as Night - that snuck in beside them.
When Yuya looks at the creature, he gets a pop-up saying "Taming successful". Although the creature is initially confused at this, it just nods its head and goes along with it. Yuya checks its stats and finds out it's a Moujo Pig, but sees that his own appraisal skill has risen, allowing him to see its skills. He sees one skill called Holy Ground and asks it what it does; the creature emits a large sphere around the trio akin to a force field, but it seems to heal Yuya. An impressed Yuya holds up the Moujo Pig in his hands with a grin and names it Akatsuki.
Night then exits the pond and point to Yuya's , reminding him that school starts soon. Later, now in his school uniform and with his pets left at his Otherworld house, Yuya makes it to class. In class, Rie announces a ball game competition, with its results affecting her bonus, so she tells them to do their best. The first event is football, and the class is split in half. Yuya, Ryou, and Shingo are put on the same team, and Yuya is goalkeeper, since he's not very familiar with the rules. When the game starts, Ryou takes on the other team and scores a goal.
As they watch, Kaede is impressed, but Rin says that she has a secret weapon up her sleeve to make the opposition lose focus; she tells Kaede to repeatedly jump as she cheers, thus causing her large breasts to bounce, distracting all the players. However, Akira on the opposing team is unfazed, and he tackles the ball from Ryou and kicks the ball, making Rin curse herself as her plan backfires. However, just as the ball is going into the goal, Yuya stops it with lightning speed, shocking everyone. Yuya wonders what to do with the ball he holds; Ryou says to just throw it as hard as he can, so Yuya throws it so hard he actually scores in the opposing goal. Yuya asks if he got a point.
After school, as he is walking home with his friends, Yuya is approached by the female modelling agent and her male associate. They attempt to recruit him for the modelling agency, but he declines. She becomes shocked, but Yuya says he's already enjoying life at school. Miu then appears and tries to convince him to join, then Ryou and Shingo become shocked that Yuya personally knows the supermodel, but Yuya explains that he only worked with her once. The agent then shows them an upcoming magazine with Yuya and Miu on the front cover.
A poster for their sports competition suddenly lands near them after being blown by the wind, and Kaori chases after it. The agent then gets the idea to do an article on the school and photograph Yuya throughout the event, so she and her associate go into the school to get approval. That night, Yuya defeat a skeletal monster in the Otherworld, but he laments at his seeming inability to get stronger, so he goes deeper into the forest with black trees, which are extremely hard and unable to even be scratched with normal attacks.
He then sees a giant pig-like monster and wonders how Akatsuki grew so much so quickly, when he turns around and sees that the still-small Akatsuki is actually behind him; Yuya is attacked by the giant Metal Boar, who gets the upper hand, when it is sent flying by an unknown force. A strange white rabbit then appears and introduces himself as Usagi, surprising Yuya that he can talk. When the Metal Boar gets back up, not only does Usagi destroy it, but destroys the surrounding trees in doing so. Yuya sees Usagi's stats and learns that he's insanely powerful.
Yuya thanks him for the help, but Usagi asks to see his kick, so Yuya demonstrates a kick. Usagi says he sees potential in him, before blowing holes in several trees with one kick of his own. Usagi trains him, and Yuya eventually kicks a tree down, so they both eventually spar. Yuya asks why Usagi's training him, and Usagi says he wants him to be his successor. Usagi is a Divine, and it's his duty to pass on his techniques. He explains that "Divine" is a title given to someone who's mastered a specific field, and that he's the Divine kicker.
Their job is to protect the world from the Vile - beings that are the manifestations of the world's negative aspects. Yuya asks is he has a choice, and Usagi says he can refuse, but that the fight against the Vile is inevitable, so they need as much help as possible. Yuya prefers not to be a Divine, but wants to protect Night and Akatsuki, so Usagi trains him anyway, but asks to learn magic from Yuya, as he is impressed by his house's force field. Yuya thinks about ho that was just the sage's work, but they make a deal where they'll exchange knowledge.
During his training, Yuya is being chased by a King Metal Boar, but he uses his kicks and whip to defeat it, and it drops several SS-ranked items. Usagi explains that there are SSS-ranked and even ES-ranked monsters in the world, and the Vile are even stronger, at the legendary rank. Yuya then gets a pop-up about evolving, then he glows for a second. His appearance is unchanged, but he seems to have gained several new skills.
The next day at school, Yuya participates in a tournament, with the modelling agent present, who tells him to put on a good show. Yuya's opponent is a national champion known as the Sniper, who delivers a devastating serve that Yuya misses, but he easily returns the next serve after comparing it to the King Boar. Burning a hole in the table with the ball, Yuya forfeits the match out of fear of hurting someone, and the agent's photographer complains that Yuya moved too fast for them.
Meanwhile, Kaede drags Yuya away to play , as one of their players got injured, but the agent follows them. However, when the match begins, Yuya pops the ball and wrecks the court with his power, shocking everyone, and prompting the opposing team to give up. When the agent checks her photographer's camera, she finds that he missed the shot again, but this time because he was busy capturing Kaede's breasts. Afterwards, Kaede and Rin comfort Yuya outside, with Kaede saying that a win is a win, when they suddenly hear a scream on the yard.
They see Kaori, then her bruised and bloodied teammate being carried on a stretcher; he warns Yuya to watch out for the serve. Yuya soon takes his place in the match beside Kaori, and his two opponents tell him he'll also need medical attention. When Kaori serves, she nearly hits the ball on the back of Yuya's head, but he encourages her. She serves again, but ends up throwing her racket at the audience; Yuya's eyes widen as he realises that the other guy was knocked out by Kaori, not the opposing team. Yuya then plays the opposition single-handedly, getting every shot.
During the game, Kaori tries to help, but she throws her racket again and almost falls when he catches her; the agent finally gets her picture as Yuya holds Kaori. After school, Yuya and Kaori walk together as she thanks him. She offers to treat him with food, but he says he's happy just being with her. She then kisses his cheek. Meanwhile in the Otherworld, Usagi is fighting one of the Vile, when he uses magic on her, surprising her as he shouldn't be able to use magic. As Usagi credits Yuya, the girl reassesses her strategy, deciding that Yuya's a greater threat, so she leaves to find him.
The next day, back on Earth, the modelling agent flicks through their next magazine containing shots from the sports games. Happy with the pictures, she thinks abut how much the issue will sell, but her associate warns her that other agencies will want Yuya once they see it. However, she isn't worried, and seems to have a trick up her sleeve that will make Yuya unable to refuse joining their agency. Meanwhile, Yuya and Kaori walk home from school and discuss the exams; Kaori is shocked to learn that there's something Yuya isn't good at, which is mathematics.
At Kaori's suggestion, they go to Yuya's house to study together. Kaori meets Night and Akatsuki, thinking they are adorable. Later, Yuya thanks her for helping with his maths, but she says it's no problem since he's been teaching her English. Yuya thinks of his language comprehension skill, making English easy for him to learn. Kaori eventually asks to use the bathroom, so Yuya lets her, but he soon checks on her to find that she has somehow opened the door to the Otherworld; she explains that she felt the door beckon to her.
A nervous Yuya says that it's a portal to another world, and tells her to stick her hand through the door, but her hand is stopped by a magical barrier; he explains that, since he owns the house, people can only pass through if he lets them. She asks what the Otherworld is like, and he says it's full of monsters and magic. He then creates a water ball with his magic, amazing her. He confesses that he leaned his skills from the Otherworld, and that that's how he was able to defeat the Red Ogres and save her from the burning building.
With Kaori in disbelief, Yuya offers a hand and says he'll show her the Otherworld. She takes his hand, and they enter, while Night and Akatsuki follow. In the garden, Yuya tells a very surprised Kaori that Night and Akatsuki come from this world, saying that Night is actually a Fenrir, which is like a wolf, and that Akatsuki is kind of like a pig, though Akatsuki gets irritated by this. Out of nowhere, Kaori's statistics screen appears in the air, and Yuya explains that one's abilities is represented by stats on a magic screen. Her stats are much higher than when Yuya started, surprising him.
He explains that his stats where initially at 1, whilst Kaori's are at 10, and that he levelled up in this world. He explains that that's why his appearance changed, feeling as if he cheated, and he otherwise would never have been accepted by everyone, but Kaori changes the topic and happily asks to see more of this world. He says it's very dangerous beyond his garden, but says he'll show her another time, which she makes him pinkie promise. Yuya asks her to keep this secret, making her feel that they share a special bond, and she feels closer to him.
Meanwhile in the royal capitol, Lexia has returned to the palace, but her father, King Arnold Von Arselia, wonders why Yuya's not there, so Owen explains the change of plan, and Arnold wonders if Luna was involved. Luna admits she tried to kill Lexia, and Arnold grabs his sword and swings it at her, but he stops his sword at her face, then he acknowledges her skill; she realised the sword has the ability to cut through anything that tries to stop it, so she used her threads to tie up his arms instead. Lexia angrily says she chose to take her in as a guard, and says she'll hate him if he hurt her.
Although devastated to hear this, Arnold recognises Luna as one of Lexia's guards. Later on, Arnold asks Owen more about Luna, so he says that she was an assassin called the Headhunter for the Dark Guild, and that Yuya caught her after her failed attempt on Lexia's life, and how Yuya took both girls to his house. However, learning that Lexia stayed at a man's house, he angrily says he'll cut Yuya down. Owen tells him nothing happened, but Arnold says he wasn't there, and so he can't be too sure about that.
Meanwhile, the masked man that wants Lexia dead is actually Lexia's older half-brother, Reigar Von Arselia, first prince of the Arselian Kingdom. His hired assassin reports to him, saying that Luna had failed to kill Lexia because of Yuya, and that Lexia then hired Luna as her guard. He also tells Reigar that Yuya was invited to the palace, which gives Reigar an idea. Reigar gives his man a magic sphere that can disable all magic within its radius, making all royal guards practically useless except for Owen and Luna. He worries about if the plan fails, but Reigar says they'll pin it on Yuya if it does.
They next day, Yuya gets an extra day off school after the sports tournament, so he decides to visit the Otherworld's royal capitol. On his way through the forest, Yuya slays a sheep monster; among its loot is a rare bedding that magically becomes a bed that provides the best sleeping experience. When Yuya, Night, and Akatsuki reach the village, he sees several cat girls. He goes to trade, since he has no Otherworld money, but the shopkeeper finds his name odd and doesn't recognise where he's from. Yuya says he's from a small island.
Based on Yuya's appearance, the man assumes he's a noble, and doesn't believe he's a regular guy, but he asks what he has to trade, and is amazed hen Yuya pulls objects out of nowhere. Yuya gives him a variety of peppers in little glass containers. The man is amazed at the glass, and then says the peppers are of the highest quality he's ever seen, confusing Yuya. The man offers to buy it all for 100 gold coins, but Yuya admits he doesn't know whether or not it's a lot, so he explains that an average family could live comfortable off 5 coins for a year.
He also gives Yuya an identification card, and Yuya asks how to get to the capitol. Later, Yuya and his two pets are on a stagecoach heading to the capitol. At daytime, they walk around the capitol, and Yuya is amazed at how many types of people he sees, such as anthros and elves, before they reach the palace as Yuya becomes nervous about sticking out. Owen takes them in and tells him they're going straight to see the king, making Yuya panic, but Owen tells him not to worry. They enter the throne room and are met with an informal audience, including Lexia and Luna.
Yuya and Owen bow to the king, but Arnold immediately brings up Lexia's proposal to him, gradually losing his temper, as he thought he seduced his daughter. Owen calms Arnold down, but Arnold is unimpressed at Yuya for bringing no gifts for Lexia, so Yuya gets out the large bedding item he got from the sheep monster. Although Lexia is flattered, Arnold becomes mad again at the thought of Yuya trying to seduce Lexia right in front of him. Owen tries to stop Arnold and says Yuya is unfamiliar with their customs, while Yuya asks what's going on.
Lexia tells Yuya that receiving bedding as a gift means you want to marry that person and share a bed with them. As Yuya clutches his hair in frustration, Arnold unsheathes his sword to kill Yuya, but they're suddenly surrounded by assassins, one of which activates the magic-draining sphere, deactivating Arnold's guards' magic flaming arrows. They attack, but Yuya and Night beat them up. Lexia holds and praises Yuya, but a jealous Luna tries to pull her off, while Arnold glares at Yuya. Owen finds a particular emblem on an assassin, and they realise that Reigar had sent them.
News of the attack soon spreads to the guards, Arnold locks himself in his room, and Yuya wonders what to do. He remembers Owen asking him to keep Lexia safe, so Yuya looks for her, hesitating to knock on her bedroom door, when she suddenly comes out. She suggests they go around the capitol, since it's his first day there. Luna reminds her of the situation, but reasons that Reigar would be giving up his location if he were to send more assassins. Luna agrees, but notes that Lexia is really just trying to go outside, recommending she instead stay in the castle while she shows Yuya around.
Lexia refuses to leave Luna alone with Yuya, when Owen comes and suggests he shows Yuya around, but they sharply reject the idea. In the end, both girls take Yuya out as Owen watches from a distance. Lexia suggests showing Yuya the jewelers, but Luna has other ideas. The girls fight over him and make a scene; onlookers smirk and wink at Yuya, thinking he's a noble of sorts, having two beautiful women fighting for him. The trio - with Yuya's two pets - eventually roam the city, and Yuya sees the Adventurers Guild, so he tells the girls that he'd registered with the Merchants Guild in the village.
Luna encourages Yuya to join, since he hunts monsters and trades their loot often. Wanting to go on a quest with Yuya, Luna decides to register as well, much to Lexia's scorn, so Luna tells her to join as well. Lexia complains about Yuya and Luna being together, but Luna assures her that he'll be too busy to go on a quest with her. The clerk, Emilia, hands Yuya and Luna their application forms. As Yuya fills his out, he sees a question about what magic he can use. He remembers the sage telling him that common knowledge of magic isn't advanced.
Therefore, Yuya doesn't write that he can use all types of magic, including teleportation, so he just writes wind, fire, and water. The next question is about magic power; Emilia get out a special type of crystal ball and explains that they use this ball to measure how powerful a person is with their magical energy. Luna puts her hand on the ball and it glows yellow, before saying she's never been good with magic. When Yuya does this, however, the ball glows bright white and shatters into pieces, shocking everyone in the building. Thinking it's a malfunction, Emilia gets another ball.
However, when the same thing happens, Yuya apologises and offers to pay, but Emilia say it's okay, before checking his and Luna's forms. Emilia is shocked to see that Yuya can wield three types of magic, telling him that this ability puts him in the realism of people from fairytales. Although Lexia praises how amazing he is, Yuya is just glad he only write three magic types. Emilia puts their forms into a machine, which creates their guild cards. Emilia explains that, as new adventurers, they are at F rank. Yuya asks if there is a requirement for completing quests.
Emilia tells Yuya that they can go at their own pace, but warns them that they mustn't over-harvest plants on item-gathering quests, so the plants grow back. The trio check out the quest board and wonder where to start, but a woman named Glenda suddenly approaches Yuya and takes his arm, asking to join him after seeing him destroy the crystal balls. When Lexia and Luna try to pull her off Yuya while saying she's had too much to drink, Glenda eventually leaves, hoping to see him again. Lexia reconsiders joining, thinking instead about protecting him from other women, but Luna tells her to think about Owen, who already struggles to control her.
They all later head out to a field on a quest to gather herbs. Yuya is surprised that he sees harvesting instructions upon looking at the herbs. While Luna picks a specific flower whilst avoiding damaging the roots, Lexia is just glad to be away from everything. She the proposes a completion to Luna to see who can gather the more valuable herbs, with the winner going on a date with Yuya for a whole day. With Owen having followed them, he reminds them not to overharvest the area. They all leave to search, leaving Yuya alone.
When Yuya finds a mana-healing plant, Akatsuki decides to help, but he only finds a highly poisonous plant. When the girls return with herbs, Yuya examines them, when Owen suddenly rides up to them on his horse, reporting that they've discovered Reigar's location. Owen requests Yuya's help while the girls return to the castle. They later reach a desolate house, but when they enter, a knight it hit by a flying knife. Reigar then comes out of the shadows as he holds a knife to a captured guard's neck, so Yuya sends Night to disarm him.
The knights surround Reigar, but he attacks them and holds his blade to his own neck as he threatens to kill himself, saying he thinks he's worthless. Owen doesn't know what to do, but Yuya rushes at Reigar and stops him. Reigar attacks him, but Yuya knocks him down. Owen thanks Yuya as the knights prepare to take Reigar away, when a sudden explosion blows the house open. A relieved Reigar sees the Vile girl who'd previously fought Usagi, but she analyses the situation and tells Reigar that he failed, and is no longer useful, shocking him.
Reigar thought she wanted to help him become king, but she reveals that she wanted to use him to start wars to kill as many people as possible. As Reigar realises he was tricked, the girl prepares to kill him, and Owen tries to stop her, but he is disarmed by an arrow. She then bombards the men with arrows, but when Owen asks what she wants, she says she wants humanity dead. As the knights struggle against her magic arrows, she seems to predict their actions, but when she tries to kill them with the arrows, Yuya magically blows them away.
When Owen thanks Yuya, the girl realises that Yuya is the one she's after. Although wanting to fight him, she's used up too much power, so she retreats, leaving Yuya wondering who she is. They take Reigar to the castle and bring him before the throne. The knights remove Reigar's mask and clothes in front of Arnold and Lexia, revealing his body covered in scars. When Lexia already finds it hard to look at Reigar, it's revealed that he's responsible for his scars, as she once lost control of her magic, and he got caught in it.
Reigar eventually went insane from the experience, developing an urge for destruction, with the only way to suppress the urge being to cause more damage to his own body. He blames Arnold for not helping him and even isolating him from the public for no longer being "fit" to be prince, instead being treated as if he didn't exist. As Yuya has flashbacks of being shunned and beaten for being fat and ugly, he related to Reigar's story. After saying he just wants his suffering to end, Reigar begs to be executed, when Yuya raises a hand and interrupts.
Yuya says he might be able to help, as he takes out a bottle of his healing potion. Reigar initially resists, but Yuya forces him to drink it, before his scars vanish, much to everyone's shock. Reigar sees his reflection and says can't believe it, when Yuya says his potion is made from a cure-all herb. An astonished Arnold explains that such a herb is of legendary status, and he thanks Yuya for using such a rare item on his son. Yuya tells him not to worry, since he grows it in his garden. Under the impression that he is still a dead man, Reigar laughs.
Lexia asks Arnold what crimes Reigar committed, to which Arnold says he made multiple attempts to kill her. Since the crimes were against her, Lexia pardons him. Arnold says it's not that simple, since he also attacked him, but Lexia points at her father and angrily insists. A shocked Arnold does as he's told, and after Reigar has been dressed, he asks Arnold about Yuya's reward for saving his life. Lexia suggests her hand in marriage, but Luna pushes her aside and also offers her hand, but Arnold gives Yuya the title of Lord Knight, as well as land and a mansion.
Yuya goes to his mansion for the night and immediately falls asleep on his bed, with Night and Akatsuki beside him. He dreams about losing a fight against the Vile, which jolts him awake. The next day at school, Yuya rejects his friends' offer to hang out and instead rushes off after class, even running past Kaori in the hallway, as all he can think about is the Vile girl. He goes back to the Otherworld forest to train for his fight against her. Night senses something, when the girl appears with a crash landing. When Yuya questions her beef with him, she says she wants revenge, and he's in her way.
Meanwhile on Earth, Kaori visits Yuya's house to study with him, but after using the doorbell, she enters after seeing his front door open. She enters the Otherworld to find him, but she hears explosions in the distance. With Night's help, Yuya lands a blow on the girl, impressing her, and she says she must kill him before he gets stronger. When she launches many magic arrows at him, he notices Kaori in the distance, who freaks out and ducks behind cover. When the girls prepares her strongest attack, Usagi arrives and saves Yuya, apologising for being late.
Usagi learnt that the girl is called Yuti, and that she is the Divine archer. Yuti reveals that her master was killed, and she wants revenge for him. She claims Usagi only appears when it's too late, while her master protected humans, but he was eventually betrayed by them. Usagi says it's their job to fight the Vile, and that using their Divine skills to destroy the world is against the covenant they have with the planet. Yuti says she only inherited her Divine skill from her master, but never officially took on the title of a Divine, so she's not bound by the covenant.
They fight, and Yuya copies Usagi's kick to stun Yuti, leaving her open for Usagi, who kicks her down. An infuriated Yuti refused to back down, before cursing humans and letting out a scream, disabling Yuya and Night as she lunges at Usagi. When Usagi is hit, Akatsuki runs to the fight and activates his Holy Grail shield, removing Yuti's power and allowing Yuya to come from behind and knock her out. Usagi says that, besides the Divine, there are Holy Beasts that stand against the Vile, and Akatsuki seems to be one of them. He says Yuti should be unable to use her Vile powers now, so he leaves Yuya with her.
Kaori appears and waves at Yuya, but a giant monster sneaks up behind her, which Yuya kills with a single spear throw, leaving Kaori paralysed with shock. Yuya says that this is his daily life in the Otherworld, before asking if she's scared to see him kill, then tells him that he used this world to become more skilled and powerful, and that he's a cheater. However, Kaori saysthis is false, that he hasn't changed one bit since she first met him, that he's always been kind, and that she's really liked him ever since that night.
