Having overcome countless trials (without much difficulty), Yogiri and Tomochika finally managed to reunite with their classmates in the capital. But between the efforts of Ayaka, a synthetic classmate who swore revenge against her fellow students, the meddling of Sion, a Sage determined to cull the weak and produce a new superbeing from their class of candidates, and the revival of the Dark God Mana, the majority of the class — not to mention the entire capital — were ultimately wiped out.
Somehow, amid the chaos, the unlikely pair were able to draw Sion out and acquire their first concrete clue about how to get home: they will need a number of Philosopher’s Stones, powerful artifacts carried within the bodies of the Sages. After taking one from Sion and finding another dropped into their laps by Risley, the only surviving clone of the Sage Lain, who they killed some time earlier, the two highschoolers set off in search of a third energy source, leaving a trail of ruins behind them.
Do not recommend this volume 5. The author has no moral compass. Because the main plot arc is simple (instant death ability and objective is unattainable - going back to earth) author fills series with irrelevant and illogical (nonsensical) stories. I don't know. I think the author ran out of ideas from a web novel series. "“So, now we have to compare our bust sizes, right?” “Is it normal to say weird stuff like that in America?!” Sensing danger from Carol’s gaze, Tomochika instinctively covered her chest with her arms. “What? I see it all the time in anime. The girls are always doing things like that.”" The author makes Carol (the American ninja) (job to spy on Yugiri) insist on going to a hot bath and compare boob sizes with the other girls just to complete some of the mindless cliches (fan service) that other light novel series use. It is already a harem ambiance even though the main character only kills and sleeps. Rarely does anything else. Now left is only talking constantly about food and cooking and recipes, and then having a Japanese style festival in the middle of another world. Too bad Yugiri doesn't have a little sister. But with this author and his lack of integrity and ethical values, one can be put into the series sooner than later. Slavery is not a concern for the author or the main character Yogiri: "“This is such a mess,” Yogiri muttered, feeling torn. If they wanted to follow the law, these representatives of the Kingdom of Manii would know the rules best, but was the law acceptable in the first place? For someone like Yogiri, who had traveled there from a very different world and knew nothing of the history or needs of this place, he didn’t have much of a position to argue from." Yogiri is torn because the prince is telling him that the half demons are property. They were free before they were enslaved and yet, no one not even Tomochika is defending the people from being illegaly enslaved, tortured, sexually assaulted, etc. Where is the ethical dilemma to the author and to Yogiri? It's bad enough but it gets worse, author for the first time in this series changes the point of view without any notice, and repeats over and over again the action already written. :( 3 "“Hey, are you guys stupid or something?” the boy asked with a sigh." I'm not sure the boy (Yogiri) was talking to the readers, the author or the other characters??
After the death of most of the class as well as the sage Sion in the last volume, the series may have run it's course for me. At this point, with the death of a new side character, it seems like the protagonist is the only human being in the story despite not being human. Still planning to read at least one more volume, but taking a break to cleanse my palate.
Un volumen muy tranquilito y normal para la serie, viniendo del volumen anterior este realmente se siente como un bajón, pero, el volumen no es malo, de hecho como todos los anteriores es bueno, solo que no pasan cosas súper interesantes en este.
