Two years have passed since the Spirit King's Curse shook the world. In this time, Souma and the Kingdom of Friedonia have been preparing for an impending period of unprecedented chaos. However, the Kingdom was not the only country to burgeon over the two years. Fuuga has been expanding the border of his Great Tiger Kingdom of Haan as well. Following the acquisition of the Lunarian Orthodox Papal State, Fuuga sought to bring the Mercenary State Zem under his control. Now, having gained such powerful forces, he declares war on mankind's greatest nation—the Gran Chaos Empire.

When Souma receives an invitation to a martial arts tournament, he has no plan to attend until he discovers two things: first, the grand prize is a single wish, and second, the daughter of his kingdom's former general will be participating. Her father was arrested as a traitor, and she has every reason to hate Souma and the Elfrieden Kingdom. Now, he'll have to discover her true intentions before she gains the power to start an all-out war.

With Souma's coronation and wedding behind him, he's ready to send his little sister Tomoe off for her first day at the Royal Academy. But from her first step through the gates, she's greeted with comments and stares from the other students. Tomoe's adoption, her gift, and her older brother are drawing a lot of attention . . . good, bad, and possibly even dangerous.
