Episode 7 of "DanMachi II" begins with Hestia learning about Bell's overnight stay in the pleasure quarter, leading to his punishment, in which Mikoto, Welf, and Lili participate, acknowledging their roles in the situation.
The focus now shifts to Haruhime, the Renard Mikoto has been searching for. Despite Haruhime's self-deprecating remarks, Bell is determined to help rescue her. However, Lili and Welf warn that this could spark a war with the powerful Ishtar Familia, a concern shared by others.
Hermes, who had a disturbing encounter with Ishtar, seeks an audience with Freya but only manages to speak with Syr. The conversation reveals Hermes' compromised position and Ishtar's growing interest in Bell. Meanwhile, Eina at the Guild confirms the immense strength of the Ishtar Familia and hints that they should not be underestimated.
Mikoto tells Bell the backstory of her relationship with Haruhime, painting a picture of their shared childhood and Haruhime's tragic descent into servitude. After this revelation, a chance meeting with Hermes occurs, where he suggests a possible solution: buying Haruhime's freedom, a task that seems financially feasible for Mikoto and Bell.
Hermes also discreetly informs them about the delivery of the Killing Stone to Ishtar, a mysterious artifact that hints at its significance for the unfolding events. Meanwhile, Ishtar orders her top soldiers, including Captain Phryne, to capture Bell and bring him to her unharmed, as part of her aggressive plans against the Freya Familia.
Determined to gather the money for Haruhime's freedom, Mikoto and Bell venture into the dungeon. Unbeknownst to them, Ishtar's forces, including Aisha, lie in wait. Aisha, seemingly authorized by a disguised Haruhime, confronts Bell and overpowers him with ease. The episode ends with Bell in a precarious situation, captured by Aisha, as the story teeters on the brink of war between the Ishtar and Freya Familia.
