Back in Chiho's hometown, it's harvest season, and there aren't enough hands! With his part-time job closed for renovations, Maou decides to go help out and brings the willing Ashiya as well as the unwilling Urushibara. Meanwhile, Suzuno completely misunderstands the situation and drags Emi along to chase the boys all the way to Nagano. Even in the countryside, the demon king and the hero are bound to bring trouble with them wherever they go.

Chiho's hometown is bustling with activity as the harvest season approaches. However, there is a shortage of workers due to renovations taking place at Maou's part-time job. Determined to assist, Maou invites Ashiya and Urushibara to join him. Meanwhile, Suzuno misinterprets the situation and insists on accompanying Emi to track down the boys. Despite their best efforts, the trio ends up in Nagano, where their presence attracts unwanted attention from both the demon king and the hero.

As they navigate through the rural landscapes, the demon king and the hero find themselves at odds with each other. The demon king, known for his mischievous nature, sees the opportunity to cause trouble, while the hero, driven by a sense of duty, is determined to protect the people and the land. Despite their differences, they must work together to overcome a series of challenges that arise.

One such challenge is a group of bandits who have been terrorizing the local villages. The demon king, who has a soft spot for children, offers to help the hero defeat the bandits in exchange for a promise to leave the countryside alone. The hero, however, is hesitant to trust the demon king, knowing that his intentions may not be entirely honorable.

As they continue their journey, the demon king and the hero encounter a variety of other characters, each with their own unique challenges and motivations. They meet a wise old woman who tells them about a legendary artifact that can help them defeat the demon king. They also meet a young girl who is being hunted by a group of bounty hunters who believe that she has the power to control the demon king.

Through their adventures, the demon king and the hero learn more about each other and themselves. The demon king discovers that he has a deeper sense of compassion than he had previously thought, while the hero realizes that he is capable of more than he ever imagined. They also learn the importance of teamwork and the power of forgiveness.

In the end, the demon king and the hero are able to defeat the bandits and protect the local villages. They also find the legendary artifact and use it to defeat the demon king. As they part ways, the demon king promises to leave the countryside alone and to use his powers for good. The hero, grateful for the demon king's help, returns to his village with a newfound sense of purpose.

The journey of the demon king and the hero teaches them valuable lessons about friendship, teamwork, and the power of forgiveness. It also highlights the importance of understanding and respecting each other's differences, even when they seem insurmountable. As they return to their respective lives, the demon king and the hero carry the memories of their adventure with them, and they are forever changed by the experience.
