Spring brings new life and new friends! As Akira’s paradigm-shifting power continues to take root in the forest and beyond, the tyrannical King of Empras’s trusty marauders—the Fifth Knights Brigade—are finally prepared to launch an all-out assault on nature. Their mission is to somehow burn the entire forest to the ground—a difficult task, as the woods cover half the world. The king is soon to discover the futility of his quixotic quest, but not before the plot to overthrow the despot gains new momentum.

Meanwhile, Akira has secured so many amenities for his new home that it could hardly be more comfortable, but he can’t shake his loneliness. Good thing new pals are on the way—magical puppies, a walking tree, and his first ever human(oid) companions!
