The Rising of the Shield Hero - S05

Naofumi Iwatani sets out for the isolated eastern kingdom of Q'ten Lo, determined to shield Raphtalia from its assassins. Along the way, he and his companions pass through Siltvelt, a nation founded by a past shield hero, where Naofumi is treated as a divine figure and even offered the throne. Though he refuses the role-focused instead on reaching Q'ten Lo before the next wave of monsters endangers the world-Naofumi gets caught up in Siltvelt's internal power struggles. After surviving an attack on his life, he chooses to face the kingdom's rulers head-on, proving that their old rivalries and selfish goals mean nothing against his unwavering mission to protect everything.
