Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash (Light Novel) Vol. 19 (novel)

Haruhiro’s party has suffered crushing losses attempting to flee the Ironblood Kingdom. No one had the power to prevent Jumbo’s gruesome slaughter of Kuzaku, or the orc’s great black eagle feasting upon Setora… No one except the No-Life King sleeping inside Merry. With his awakening comes great upheaval, and now the fearsome sekaishu has overrun Grimgar, eating away at the world. Soldiers, innocents, and even those who ought to be dead fight for survival in the chaos—but at every step, their self-spun tales of adventure in a world stained black may very well end.
