Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside #4

Volume 4 of this charming isekai slice-of-life series takes a sunny detour, with Masahiro Ikeno's art bringing a bright summer energy to the cover — a laughing blonde woman in a red bikini, her long hair catching the breeze, clearly mid-splash alongside a dark-haired young man grinning in swim trunks. It's a warm, carefree snapshot that captures exactly the "quiet life" spirit the series promises, a world away from hero's-party drama. Based on Zappon's original story with character designs by Yasumo, this 2023 entry looks like a delightful volume for fans who've been following the countryside adventures.
