Refugees are one of modern society's great challenges, and the Kingdom of Friedonia is no exception. Refugees who had been driven from their lands by invading monsters have gathered outside the walls of the capital and started an encampment.

Souma and the others visit the refugees, where they help an expectant mother with a difficult delivery. The newborn life provides hope and a foundation for the future to the refugees, but not all of them accept the future Souma presents them.
