Refer to the first volume for review.

Long story short: this volume centers around Rossweisse. In the beginning Ise finds himself in a clichéd situation. He must (once again) pretend to be a boyfriend to one of the heroines. Of course the villain shows up unexpectedly (my god what kind of security they have - every time the same, the villain shows up, and nobody noticed him).
The story begins to progress after the ORC gets to the underworld, to visit and participate in lectures of the school president school.
The villains army shows up afterwards in which Ise defeats the villain by using deus-ex-machina-like power (well since he and Vali are supposed to destroy even gods, you forgive him).
The volume was quite humorous and entertaining. Especially Fafnir's cooking show - man it was so unexpected development I even laughed. Anyway the last few chapters kept me engaged, so I can't wait for the next volume.
