Dugu Qing and Frieren’s party defeated Aura’s demons, passed through Sword Village, and continued toward Aureole with Sein. Dugu Qing later impersonated the dead Welt at Orden’s ball, helping the Orden family strengthen its position before a battle against the demons.
Dugu Qing and his companions traveled north, reached Auwest, and entered the First-Class Mage Exam, where they passed the first test and began the next challenge in a labyrinth.

Dugu Qing, Frieren, Fern, and Stark completed the mage exam, continued north through monster attacks and small adventures, and strengthened their bonds along the way. The arc left them helping Norm locate a silver vein in exchange for payment and the cancellation of Himmel, Heiter, and Eisen’s debts.
Dugu Qing and his companions defeated Macht and freed Weise, then continued north through new encounters and celebrations. The group left the Heavenly Vein Dragon after it promised to help Dugu Qing if he ever needed it.
Frieren and Dugu Qing protected Serie from the Shadow Warriors, then traveled to Aureole and returned to find the Demon King’s forces rising. Dugu Qing became the human alliance’s leader, defeated the first Demon army at Auwest, and began preparing a route for the larger war ahead.
