Background
After training in the village of the lizardmen, Aura and Mare, along with Zaryusu, begin exploring the isolated island beyond the [Gate]. Will it be possible to secure a bridgehead for the Sorcerer Kingdom? The true value of the final battle weapon "swimsuit" is now being tested――

Incident
At the village of the lizardmen, Slimeko calls to Zaryusu Shasha that they will be leaving soon. Zaryusu in his hut with Crusch Lulu then bids farewell to his wife who asks him to be careful on his trip.

To reiterate the past events, due to Shalltear Bloodfallen's prompting to restart the experiments on [Gate]s. Out of the experiment Nazarick was reconnected to the isolated beach. Now having obtained a reliable way to reach the uninhabited island once more, there are plans to use the new piece of unclaimed territory as an emergency shelter or perhaps a bridgehead for conquering the open seas.

By nightfall the protagonist, Slimeko and Zaryusu have returned to the Great Tomb of Nazarick to participate in the latest experiment. There in front of the Central Mausoleum is none other than Shalltear who greets the returning party. The homunculus diplomat then introduces Zaryusu to Shalltear, a Floor Guardian who is in charge of first three floors of Nazarick. The traveler greets her, having remembered seeing her at the "Sorcerer Kingdom's National Foundation Day Ceremony".

The Floor Guardian then proceeds to take the group to the 2nd Floor where the [Gate] experiment is taking place. Zaryusu walking through the corridor muses that he hasn't been back to the dungeon since the ceremony. Having a moment to observe the atmosphere he can't help but feel its a place of immense dignity and terror. Shalltear as a courteous advises the lizardmen to not get lost otherwise he could be caught in a trap. When the finally arriving at the chamber, Momonga, Albedo, Demiurge, Entoma Vasilissa Zeta, Aura Bella Fiora and Mare Bello Fiore are seen waiting for them. The sight of some many important members of the Sorcerer Kingdom for this experiment awes the lizardmen who respectfully greets the Sorcerer King. In turn Momonga acknowledges the traveler for not just his current aid in the endeavor but also for loaning him Frost Pain, which he used to create Frost Pain Modified.

Momonga thinking that the lizardman must be weary from his journey to Nazarick, suggests that they allow the demi-human to rest, but Zaryusu is ready to proceed with the experiment. Momonga's offer though affirms the magnanimity of the sovereign and the respect he garners over the various races that make up the kingdom as well as Cocytus's loyalty. In truth Momonga wanted to avoid Zaryusu from experiencing fatigue while on the mission and is considering giving the demi-human ally an item that nullifies fatigue when Demiurge reminds him that everyone is now present which makes Momonga to resume the experiment.

Demiurge starts the experiment, first by asking those in the room if they understand the purpose of their mission. Mare states that it is to first confirm whether the teleportation coordinates of the [Gate] are stable. Aura adds that secondly they are to confirm whether or not the island destination can be safely secured. For both purposes the team is to confirm if the island is truly the same one Nazarick discovered in the past. To help them in making that evaluation, three members of the original team that were sent to investigate the island, the protagonist, Slimeko and Entoma, will be joining them.
