Description
Sights set on their next target, Kaito, Minnalis, and Shuria travel to the magical city of Karvanheim, where they find Minnalis's traitorous childhood friends leading carefree lives. But soon, the partners in crime come across an obstacle not even Kaito could have foreseen—a merchant woman named Leone, who was also summoned from Japan and remembers the world of Kaito's first life.
Still possessed of her morals, Leone attempts to interfere with the trio's rampage of revenge—but there's no stopping Minnalis from exacting hellish reprisal on the people who doomed her to slavery and killed her mother.
The Hero Laughs While Walking the Path of Vengeance a Second Time, Vol. 5 captures the thrilling journey as the characters face challenges, both new and old, in their relentless quest for vengeance.
