Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? On the Side: Sword Oratoria

Aiz Wallenstein, the Sword Princess, is known as one of the most powerful warriors from one of the most powerful groups in the city of Orario: Loki Familia. With them, she ventures into the deepest parts of the labyrinthine Dungeon beneath the city, stalking the monstrous denizens that lurk there and vanquishing them with the blazing light of her sword. But when she meets a certain white-haired boy, the encounter will change both of them forever...

Sword Oratoria follows the main Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? timeline, but parallel to Bell’s story. Sometimes intersecting, sometimes not, Sword Oratoria offers another viewpoint into the world of Orario through the eyes of Aiz Wallenstein and Loki Familia.

Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Familia Chronicle

Episode Lyu

Sometimes carrying out justice requires...cross-dressing?! When a troubled couple tells the story of how their daughter was taken to pay off a gambling debt, Lyu's conscience and the legacy of Astrea Familia compel her to take action! The many skills Lyu learned as an adventurer are formidable, but she'll need more than brute force to challenge the influential Grand Casino. Unable to sneak or fight her way inside, Lyu puts all her trust in Syr’s rescue plan: Go through the front door posing as Count Maximilian and his beautiful wife!

Episode Freya

A fey mood strikes Freya, sparking a new quest to find her Odr, the one destined to stand forever by her side. Naturally, her followers are against it. They remember all too well the disaster that her last adventure turned out to be. Unfortunately for them, such a minor setback has never been enough to stop the goddess of beauty from following wherever her heart leads—which, this time, happens to be the sandy dunes of Kaios. Freya is eager to spread her wings to see what discoveries this new land has to offer, even as her familiafrantically searches for her, no matter the cost...!

Currently published with two episodes, Familia Chronicle features stories about prominent side characters in the main Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? storyline. Each episode gives additional character history and lore, and gives more context to events that are highlighted in the main story.

DARKNESS LOOMS… Seven years before a certain boy sets foot in the Labyrinth City, chaos and uncertainty plague the hearts of each god, goddess, and adventurer across every familia. Though Lyu Leon spends her waking hours carrying out the will of the goddess Astrea, she is constantly searching for a brand of justice she can believe in. She may be able to rely on the rest of Astrea Familia to serve as her light in the darkness, but evil yet stirs deep within the shadows.
