Rudeus has adventured across continents and survived run-ins with gods--and none of it has prepared him to watch Aisha and Norn when Paul leaves them temporarily in his care. Can he rise to the occasion yet again, or will parenting two preteen girls be the ordeal that ultimately defeats him?!

Now officially Dragon God Orsted's underling, Rudeus receives his first mission: to make Princess Arielle the next king of Asura Kingdom! Mighty as the endeavor might seem, it's just the first of many steps he'll have to take if he's going to help Orsted bring down the Man God.

Rudeus and Paul must descend into the deadly depths of a Teleportation Labyrinth to rescue Zenith. The father-son duo makes short work of deadly beasts and ancient magical traps, but it's the terrible truth at the Labyrinth's heart that proves the greatest threat of all. What happens when all hope is shattered beyond recall?

In the years since Ariel took the throne, Rudeus has been keeping busy carrying out missions for Orsted and even finding time to save an old friend from slave traders. Then a letter arrives from the Doldia Village, seeking his help with the Sacred Beast's shocking disappearance! Can Rudeus explain his unintended dognapping? Or is he about to have yet another diplomatic incident on his hands?

Rudeus plunges into the political fray, enacting Orsted's plan to put Ariel on the throne of the Asura Kingdom. Though fortune seems to favor them at first, the crafty Man God has one last card up his sleeve--a dangerous foe they must face before the new monarch can assume her crown. Worse yet, there may be a traitor in their midst!

Rudeus's fourth child, Sieghart, is born with the same crop of bright-green hair that Laplace was once feared for. The omen grows ever more ill when a familiar of Perugius's appears and commands Rudeus to bring his newborn son to the floating fortress! Rudeus swears that his plans to fight Laplace are unchanged and that he'll accept any fate for the sake of his family...but will that be enough for Perugius?

The Shirone Kingdom summons Zanoba home, saying they need more manpower to weather a recent coup d'etat, but Rudeus doesn't buy it: could it be a trap from the Man-God? He and Roxy travel with Zanoba as protection, only to come face-to-face with the fifth of the Seven Great Powers: Randolph Marianne, the Death God. It'll be hard work to best the Man-God's machinations, especially when Rudeus never quite knows who to trust!

Nanahoshi, Rudeus, and the rest of their group take a trip to Perugius's mysterious floating fortress, seeking adventure and a once-in-a-lifetime chance to learn new magic. What they find instead is disaster, as one of their number is struck down by a deadly illness. How far will Rudeus go to save a dear friend's life?
