Luckily, Makoto soon meets a minor goddess named Noah, who appears in Makoto's dreams and asks him to become her first believer. With the help of Noah's blessings and a divine weapon, Makoto seeks to become strong enough to rescue his goddess from the dungeon where she's been trapped. By training hard and using his weak skills in unorthodox ways, Makoto proves that, even when playing on hardcore difficulty, an RPG player always makes it to the end!

Makoto Takatsuki has awakened! After his triumph over the Great Demon Lord a thousand years in the past, Makoto has finally returned to the present. His closest friends and companions have grown a lot in the year he was absent: Lucy and Sasa are famed adventurers, Furiae is leading Laphroaig as the Saint of Miracles, and Noah has been elevated to the eighth goddess of the pantheon! Unfortunately, just as Makoto is settling back into his old life, he receives some devastating news-the Great Demon Lord and the Witch of Calamity have revived! While the Seven Nation Alliance prepares for the final confrontation with Iblis, Makoto reunites with his goddess after their long separation. She offers him a cryptic message, and he'll have to work out what she truly means, even as the fuse is lit on the final battle for the fate of humanity!
