The Forest of Lagranda.Sergiatte invites the Round Table representatives to participate in the dance, prompting Crusty to nominate Shiroe, and with help from Henrietta's bard sub-class, they quickly impress the entire ball. Afterwards, Minori informs Shiroe of their dungeon training and he reminds her of his lessons. The next day, Shiroe explains that the Landers would compete with themselves over dealings with the adventurers in order to obtain their fighting and technological power. He then proposes that they create rules to protect the Round Table when the People inevitably start approaching their guilds individually and hence has Akatsuki begin reconnaissance as preparation. Elsewhere, the training camp makes their way to the Forest of Laglanda and split up into groups, however Minori has trouble speaking her mind in a group with Tohya, Rundelhaus Code, Isuzu and Serara. Eventually the group encounters some monsters and familiarize themselves with their skills. Despite their best attempts however, they are quickly overpowered by the next wave of monsters and make a tactical retreat. Back at the Palace of Eternal Ice, Crusty introduces himself to Lenessia.
