In Episode 4, Haruka and his group navigate through a dense forest to protect the girls from pursuing criminals. They encounter orcs, and despite being told that physical attacks are ineffective, Haruka defeats them with his overwhelming strength, much to the disappointment of those hoping to learn from the fight. He uses his abilities "Great Magic" and "Grab" to set traps and erect a protective tent, enhancing his vision and ensuring the group's safety overnight.

While planning their route, Haruka is approached by Kakizaki and his friends, who warn him about a dangerous ability called "Hijack"—a power even more threatening than "Puppeteer" or "Magic." They fear someone might possess this ability, which allows the user to steal others' skills by taking their lives.

The next morning, the class president confesses to Haruka that she has the "Hijack" ability. She is surprised he already knows and fears his reaction, but Haruka reassures her, trusting her good intentions. As they proceed, Haruka experiments with a combination of his abilities—"Magic Wrap," "Weight," and "Air Leap"—to scout the path, but a miscalculation leads to a rough landing.

When Haruka and the class president emerge from the forest, they discover adventurers being attacked by a large green wolf. They decide to help and rescue the adventurers Ofter and Gatek, who gratefully introduce them to the concept of the adventurer's guild. The other girls arrive and are thrilled to meet real inhabitants of the new world.

The adventurers guide the group to the city of Omui. Meanwhile, the delinquents plan to unseal their locked abilities "Magic" and "Puppeteer" by tracking down the nerds, then targeting the girls. The episode ends with both groups heading toward the city, setting the stage for future confrontations.
