After faking his death in the Kingdom of Elesia, Sora moves on to the Holy Kingdom of Frieren, where he dons a mask and restyles himself as a merchant to continue his under-the-radar tour of the new world he's found himself in. Unfortunately, things are never that easy—an orc massacre of a small village and a dastardly plot in the holy city of Messa force Sora to use his wits to prevent disaster without actually showing his hand. The addition of a colorful group of female adventurers and a headstrong holy woman on the run make things even more of a pain. All the while, Sora's looking for leads towards Chris and Rurika's missing friends, and he might just find one in Messa!
