The Royal Academy is holding a martial arts competition, pitting its students against one another in bouts of magic and might. While she was initially uninterested, Yumiella immediately joins the fray after discovering what the prizes are.
Episode 7: The Hidden Boss Attempts Dancing
Yumiella takes some time to reflect on the circumstances that led to the game version of herself down a path of villainy. An end-of-year dance presents an opportunity for Yumiella to learn who Alicia is pursuing, but someone else may have other plans.

A classmate asks Yumiella for help slaying a dragon in her family's territory. Yumiella recognizes the task as an event from the game that rewards the player with a means of transport and is eager to take up the challenge.

Yumiella suddenly finds herself a target of multiple assassination attempts—not that any of these hired killers hold a candle to her level 99 strength, of course. Then, she meets a young boy in town who gives her pause.

At long last, Yumiella and her companions reach the Demon Lord's castle, but his power is so great that she's the only one who stands a chance against him. Then the Demon Lord tells them the true story of his connection to Valschein's royal family.
