Scorch marks blacken the wireframe dungeon, and the smell of burnt meat hangs in the air. Iarumas’s party stumbles upon a corpse, more charcoal than flesh, and Raraja insists on dragging it out. Murmur—Chant—Pray—Invoke. A large-framed girl named Berkanan gulps the fresh air of her second chance at life. Her confidence is low and her skills as a fledgling mage are inadequate, but despite all that, she has a serious goal—kill the red dragon that burned her party alive. This dragon, an interloper from the lower levels of the dungeon, has become so notorious that even the most seasoned parties refuse to engage. Even so, Garbage and Raraja agree to aid Berkanan, and Iarumas lends his support. The chances of failure are high, but in the dungeon, immolation is not a permanent end...as long as someone is willing to pay. Can Iarumas’s party douse the flames of the dragon, or will they all succumb to a menacing red death?

The party of Club Fighter, Supreme God’s Cleric, and Harefolk Hunter takes on a new challenge only to discover there are some enemies they can’t hope to defeat… Priestess joins Female Knight, Witch, and High Elf Archer on an adventure—but somehow, they end up defending a besieged fortress… And then there’s Goblin Slayer, who’s once again teamed up with Spearman and Heavy Warrior!

The Goblin Slayer party launches a counterattack on the goblins that attacked the adventurer training grounds! Even in the tunnel system of his mortal foes, Goblin Slayer is never without a secret plan up his ever-armored sleeve... Later, the crew decide to follow High Elf Archer to the elven village she calls home to attend a wedding... And how could Cow Girl and Guild Girl not come along for this adventure, when there is romance in the air!?

In the abyssal slumber of death, the past flicks by like the lights of a magic lantern... Down, down in the depths of the Dungeon of Death, in the innermost of the third floor, six heroes meet their match against frightful masked men. A sharp steel blade passes through a swordsman’s throat, and memories of his master through his dying mind...

From beyond the walls of the fortress city comes a flood of refugees. The shadow of the terror of the Death threatens to assault the city. This is the beginning of the end. No more, no less. The climax is nearly here. Six heroes have assembled—the six who may save the world in this final installment of Goblin Slayer Side Story II: Dai Katana!

Goblin Slayer and his examiner infiltrate the goblin lord's lair and attempt to save a girl being held hostage there—but Goblin Slayer takes a nasty hit to the head in the process...!! Will the two of them be able to make it out, or will his promotion exam end in something far worse than failure?! Meanwhile, having stumbled into a legendary sunken city, Young Warrior’s party comes across a grotesque ritual intended to resurrect the demon lord...!!?

Deep in the unexplored reaches of the dungeon, a corpse is discovered—one that shouldn’t exist. After Iarumas is resurrected, his memories of life before death are gone, and he spends his days delving into the dungeon to retrieve the bodies of dead adventurers. Can they be revived as well? Or will God reduce them to piles of ash on the altar? Either way, Iarumas collects his finder’s fee. And though his skills earn him some grudging respect, he’s also scorned for this cold, utilitarian attitude. The living keep their distance—Iarumas consorts primarily with the dead. That is, until he meets Garbage, a feral young swordswoman who’s the sole survivor of a massacred party. With Garbage by his side, Iarumas ventures deeper, scouring the dungeon for clues to his past, avoiding monsters, traps, and the inevitability of a permanent ashen demise.

Goblin Slayer and his party have arrived at the royal capital, which is buzzing with excitement over a jousting tournament. Among the participants are Rhea Fighter and Wizard Boy, who continue to grow by leaps and bounds.

The girl has been cursed by someone or something, and a hint of evil ash lurks within the frenzied capital. Priestess finds herself in a most unexpected role...and Goblin Slayer is soon taking orders from the king himself!

Goblin Slayer, still reeling from the discovery of his connection to Wizard Boy, suddenly gets asked to go drinking with Spearman and Heavy Warrior.

But the past will have to wait—right now, there’s a goblin horde attacking the training grounds!!?

The party, having put down the scruffy men, has continued exploring ever deeper into the Dungeon of the Dead and gaining experience. But a new threat awaits them now that they’ve finally reached the third floor...!!
