Rimuru has officially become a Demon Lord after defeating Clayman. Following Walpurgis, the Demon Lords' banquet, Rimuru's domain is expanded to include the entire Great Forest of Jura.

Anticipating a flood of representatives from all races showing up to pay their respects, Rimuru decides to throw a festival to commemorate the opening of Tempest, using it as an opportunity to gain new citizens and present Demon Lord Rimuru to the world.

Meanwhile, in the Holy Empire of Lubelius, home base of the monster-hating cult of Luminism, Holy Knight Captain Hinata receives a message from Rimuru.

But the message is actually a fabricated declaration of war sent by some unknown party. Upon learning that Hinata is heading for Tempest, Rimuru makes a decision...

Thus begins a new challenge for Rimuru, striving to distinguish friend from foe in his pursuit of the ideal nation where humans and monsters can prosper together.

The story is set in Raja, located to the west of Tempest. It used to be a flourishing nation thanks to its gold mines, but now there is no trace of the prosperity that once existed—the mines have poisoned the lake and the nation has fallen into dire states. Queen Towa used the magical power of her tiara, which has been passed down from generation to generation in the royal family, to remove the poison and protect her people. However, the magic comes at a cost. The curse that was cast upon the tiara has consumed her body and is eating away at her life. Amidst all of this, a survivor of the Ogres, Hiiro, suddenly appears in Tempest. He's supposedly Benimaru's older brother and tells them that his life was saved by Towa. Hiiro, who has come to Tempest to enlist the aid of Rimuru to help him save Raja and Towa, has a fateful reunion with Benimaru. Rimuru and friends make their way towards Raja to help the nation out from its crisis and unravel the mysteries surrounding Towa's curse, but they find themselves getting embroiled into an unbelievable conspiracy.

The story picks up immediately after the events of Grisaia no Meikyuu, with Kazami Yuuji having been detained for suspected involvement with an international terrorist organization, lead by Heath Oslo, that has managed to enter Japan's borders with a devastating new weapon of mass destruction in hand. Meanwhile, at Mihama Academy, the remaining students find themselves with time running out. Due to financial issues, the school is set to close within the month. Over the past year, though, the girls of Mihama have finally begun to find their own legs, thanks to Yuuji's involvement. Are they really just going to bury their heads in the sand and let the world change around them? And are they really willing to let the man who changed their lives slip away without so much as trying to win him back? As the end of their time at Mihama Academy approaches, Amane, Makina, Sachi, Yumiko, and Michiru find themselves arriving at a single conclusion.

How much a group of students can do in the face of countries and organizations far bigger than any individual could hope to be remains to be seen. In the first place, Yuuji's position is far more complicated than any of them could have imagined, as he finds himself embroiled in an elaborate game of super-political chess revolving around both himself and an inconceivable new system slumbering in the depths of CIRS—a system that Yuuji may have more of a connection to than he thinks. One thing is for certain, though—the girls of Mihama are no longer willing to let the world steal things away from them without at least a bit of resistance first. And with help from a mysterious individual known only as Thanatos, they may just achieve their goal...
