The shadow of War looms on the horizon. After the defeat of the Terror Queen, Keith has no time to rest before facing an even deadlier challenge. One that will push him to the limits of his abilities, and perhaps even beyond. Before setting off for the Frigid Seas - a frozen wasteland devoid of life and filled with powerful monsters - Keith needs to settle an old score and assure his success in the world of Raiah. New threats lurk in the shadows, as Keith tries to balance all of his responsibilities while training another iteration of the We Hunt Monsters Guild.

With a war now raging in the Central Kingdom, Morgan and Sarah flee east in an attempt to escape the growing conflict. However, there are many forces conspiring to stop them.

With threats looming around every corner, and time running out, Morgan and Sarah will be forced to make several drastic decisions in order to survive. Especially after they receive a very dire warning....

In a world of titans, where Martial Artists reign supreme, Roy is wholly unremarkable. Without the power to channel the Essence of the world, he is weak and defenseless. Adopted into the Shah clan after his parents' deaths, he is forced to do menial labor day after day, all while enduring the ridicule and physical abuse of his supposed family.

Safaia, Tero and Garasu are on a collision course, and the clans of Buryoku scramble to brace for the impact. While Safaia is in an uproar, Roy heads into an ancient library in search of the secrets of advancement and the Path to Gray-Belt. What he discovers may change the course of Buryoku's history forevermore.

Returning from his training with Gold in the strange world of Somerset, Arbor is immediately forced into yet another battle - this time against multiple enemies. Worse, he receives reports of disturbing activity coming from the Goldenleaf Forest, and dire warnings of a threat that Laedrin will not be able to handle. The future holds many uncertainties - the hardest of which comes when Arbor is forced to make a choice between rescuing his sister from herself, and keeping the peace in his own lands.

Having received his quest from Marj, Keith sets off toward Umber City to investigate Cane, a dangerous member of the Necro-Beast Guild. Help is already waiting for him in the form of the Royal Guild, who has pledged to help in the extermination of the Dark Guilds plaguing the continent. Though all seems well at first, Keith soon finds himself bogged down in quests, assassination plots, and back-alley lowlives, not to mention the conspiracy by one of the greatest citizens in all of Humania.

Trapped in a new world. Targeted by everyone. He can either run, or embrace the mayhem! Ben finds himself stuck in the beta of Mayhem, forced to be an evil elf character by the system AI. Their race is universally hated due to their lust for destruction, bloodshed, and world domination, so, he’s understandably a bit irritated. His buddy Chip and his Rainbow Unicow Bessie, on the other hand, couldn’t be happier. Extreme violence is right up Chip’s alley and seeing as Bessie has gotten a taste for human flesh, she’s totally up for the bloodshed bit.

Life is cruel. Arbor learns this lesson the hard way, when everything he loves is taken from him in a single night. Left alive by the men who butchered his family, Arbor has two options: give up and perish, or rise up and fight to take back the life he's lost. To do that though, he'll have to leave behind the only home he's ever known and venture out into the world beyond.

Two years have passed since the fall of Octagon the Bitter and the dire warning from Order. The barrier that once separated the Five Kingdoms from the rest of the world is failing. Morgan is the first to encounter one of these invaders, signaling that the time has come for him to set out on his mission.

With the looming threat of death now hanging over his head, Roy makes the difficult decision to leave the crater. Unfortunately for him, leaving won’t solve his problems, especially those stemming from within. With Aika captured, Roy finds himself banished to the Wilds, once again powerless against the forces of Buryoku.

The North is under siege by Octagon the Bitter and his horde of twisted monsters. All but two cities have fallen and their forces are dwindling by the day. With little choice remaining, Morgan sets out on his own to try and convince the rulers of the other Kingdoms to join in their cause. Convincing rulers who have been at each other's throats for centuries will not be easy, and Morgan has doubts as to whether they'll even listen. Still, for the sake of everyone in the Five Kingdoms, he has to try, even if it costs him everything.

Long ago, Samuel created the four Pinnacle Kings, beasts of immense power and destruction. Unable to contain their power, he sealed these four beasts himself. However, the rules forbade him from making the seal unbreakable. Octagon the Bitter, Pinnacle King of Winter, has awakened. Sealed away and finding himself unable to intervene, Samuel makes a drastic decision - one that will change the very rules by which the Five Kingdoms operate. The end of the world has begun...

The end is finally here. Morgan and Sarah rush back to the Five Kingdoms, with the survivors of Faeland in tow, as enemies converge on all sides. Gods and monsters alike threaten to destroy the world, and there is only one person mighty enough to stop them all. Morgan will be tested like never before, in his final bid to free the planet of the chaotic influences that threaten to destroy it. Will he prove, once and for all, that he is truly Omniscient? Or, will one of his many enemies finally put an end to the King of Eternity?

The Necro-Beast Guild has been wiped off the face of Humania and Keith now has to prepare to challenge the most powerful Boss on the continent. There's only one problem. The Pest Control Guild has signed a contract with the Royals, and patrolling the continent for dark Guilds is now Marj's top priority. Still, a lack of support has never stopped Keith before, and in his quest to save his family, no challenge is too great—even when said challenge is rumored to dwarf the Spirits themselves.

With the fall of Alvin the Unconquerable, the face of the Fourliance changes drastically. New alliances are made as the Factions prepare for war, and all while the Necro-Beast Faction keeps pushing for more territory. Keith, meanwhile, has other concerns. Mainly with the discovery of the next World Monster's location, and the formation of his Guild in the Fourliance. With powerful new allies backing him, things should be running smoothly, but when a raid goes south, he finds himself facing a powerful enemy he cannot hope to defeat.

The competition between Scions continues, with more on the line than ever before. Roy and his teammates have long odds to beat, especially seeing as they're up against the most powerful team in the entire tournament. With little hope of success, Roy will need to push himself as never before, discovering new depths to both his physical and spiritual power. All the while, Azure watches from on high as ancient seals continue to crumble, heralding the rise of a new age....

With the defeat of the Elemental, Arbor should be hailed as a hero. Instead, he is shunned, turned away from the Defiants by those seeking power and fearing his own. Having little choice, Arbor sets out with his force of gremlins toward the slave city of Fivora in hopes of finally being reunited with his sister. Meanwhile, strange things are happening in the elven capital of Srila. An Infiltrator is stalking the streets and leaving death in its wake. However, the Infiltrator isn’t the only one with its sights set on the elven homeland.

The competition between the Scions of Safaia and the Ancient Cavern Beast Furea is about to begin. Thrown into the tournament, Roy finds that there are more than a few challengers who outclass him. The secret to victory lies between the pages of an ancient book and newly-awakened senses he does not fully understand. All the while, a sinister voice not belonging to Geon whispers in his mind.

With the rise of the Ancient Cavern Beast, Furea, the Bringer of Fire, comes a threat the likes of which Buryoku hasn't seen in centuries. As if this wasn't bad enough, his armies rise along with him, containing fighters so powerful that even the Scions may not be victorious against them. While the war rages on, Roy and Aika find themselves transported to a new land, set on a mission by his mother to hunt down the only man who can truly teach Roy how to control his birthright. Finding him may also unlock the only key to defeating the Ancient Beast.
