Arifureta season 3 commenced with Hajime and his company (his party and Hero's party) helping Princess Liliana extend a helping hand towards the Hoelscher Empire. However, things soon went the wrong way but the protagonist handled everything perfectly.

The protagonist's group then entered the Haltina Labyrinth and after crossing many trials, Hajime was awarded the Everlasting Compass. This compass guided him towards the Final Labyrinth, which might hold the relic to send Hajime, and his isekai-ed classmates, to their human world. The latest released installment saw Hajime and his group separated after entering a door inside the dungeon.
