Frieren and her new teammates hatch a plan to capture a Stille - but are the other teams just going to stand by and let it happen?

The first-class mage exam intensifies as fighting breaks out between the participants - and what's at stake might even be worth killing for.

Frieren, Kanne, and Lawine struggle with the 13th party over possession of the Stille, but there'll be more surprises in store before their battle, and the first test, reach their conclusion.

After the conclusion of the first test, the exam participants have some time to kill in town. What do mages get up to on their days off?

Due to the Spiegel, a legendary monster that can create perfect replicas of others, the test-takers who would conquer the Ruins of the King's Tomb must first face the ultimate enemy: themselves.

To defeat Spiegel, Frieren and Fern fight against Frieren's replica, but have a tough time. Meanwhile, Denken, Lavine, and the others fight against the replicas, but the magic of Sense, a first-class mage and the exam's proctor, rages.

As the first-class mage exam concludes and the test-takers go their separate ways, farewell leads to departure - but the next stage of Frieren's journey has only just begun.
