Later when Goblin Slayer is prompted to share his cheese, Lizard Priest is able to try it for the first time and proclaims it to be the "nectar of the gods".

At the Water Town, and after getting their quest from the Sword Maiden, Lizard Priest helps investigate the sewers, his resistance to poisons and his cartography skills coming in handy. As they battled Goblins living in the sewers, including Goblins riding on crude ships, a large albino alligator attacked the area destroying the Goblins and turned it's attention to the Party.

As the Training Center funded by Noble Fencer, now dubbed Female Merchant, had started to train the newcomers and other rookies, Lizard Priest offered his assistance in helping teach the rookies some skills so they'd be better prepared for their Adventures.

The next morning however, Lizard Priest was disheartened to hear that Priestess had not passed her promotional interview and offered her his condolences and words of wisdom about forming temporary Parties with other rookies to try and stand out better. Her failure though was met with ridicule from newcomer Wizard Boy which caused Lizard Priest to immediately jump to her defense, reminding him that his insults insulted all Priests present, making Wizard Boy enemy #1 for the Guild's Priests.

At Female Knight's recommendation, Lizard Priest joined his party in a search and rescue under Priestess's leadership and allowed Wizard Boy to join them, though he was admittedly hesitant. Though Priestess leads the Party well, Wizard Boy's impatience nearly spells doom for them until Goblin Slayer and Lizard Priest handle the Troll and help Acolyte get to safety so she could be healed.

After the storm, the Party were given a ride to the Desert Kingdom capital thanks to Myrmidon Monk and his caravan who gave Lizard Priest a map to memorize of the local area. During the initial scouting, Lizard Priest helped come up with a plan to rescue women captured by the Desert Captain's Goblin army.

Lizard Priest goes with the rest of the Party in a side entrance to save the captured women, but also sends one of his Dragontooth Warriors with Female Merchant to help distract the guards. After saving the girls, Lizard Priest has his Dragontooth Warriors take the girls to their escape ship as he goes with the Party to lead the Goblin Army away up the tower. Lizard Priest used his knowledge from the Desert Map to time their escape using the giant migrating Sand Manta to gently glide down to the escape ship as planned.

The escape didn't go quite as planned however, as the sand ship was docked at a small cavern where a Red Dragon was hibernating, that was awakened by a Goblin!

So when he returned with a royal request to go to the North to aid the Vikings clans, Lizard Priest agreed to come along even if he didn't like the cold.

After traveling through a mountain towards the North, and escaping from a group of Goblins, Lizard Priest was greeted by the Vikings as a "Dreki" much to his confusion. Realizing the Vikings have a very "different" culture, Lizard Priest decided to enjoy his time amongst the Vikings instead of rocking the boat, even admitting the Vikings practice certain customs his people once practiced like "Bride-Taking" and found the connection amusing.

After some introductions to the settlement thanks to the Húsfreya, wife of the Viking Chieftain, Lizard Priest happily partakes in their festivities with some milk.

Goblin Slayer Volume 15
After a Centaur warrior, Baturu, accuses Heavy Warrior of kidnapping and harassment of her tribe's princess, Lizard Priest volunteered to help clear his name when Baturu refused to back down when she had no evidence for her accusations. Whilst Lizard Priest attempted to be understanding and patience with her warrior culture and quick temper, he did note that her attitude and general unpleasantness wasn't helping her situation at all.

While investigating Water Town and running into Female Merchant, Lizard Priest and his Party are introduced to the very popular world of "City Centaur" that have build their entire culture on competitive sports, the Women's division being particularly popular. Lizard Priest made it clear he heavily respected the Centaur women for their absolute zeal for competition, even admitting he fancied Female Merchant's attendant "Lightning" for competing even if the races were hurting her legs. His admiration was challenged by Baturu who saw the women as "being put on display", to which he and Lightning retorted that Baturu shouldn't be so quick to constantly judge others and compare their beliefs to hers.

After discovering that the missing Centaur Princess matched the description of the rising star "Silver Blaze", Lizard Priest and his Party mounted a rescue when they were tipped off to an "immortal" sorcerer was supposedly in the nearby ruins. Using his Miracles, great strength, and wit matched his Goblin Slayer's, Lizard Priest and Dwarf Shaman were able to bury the crippled Immortal Sorcerer under the ruins as the girls recused Silver Blaze who was indeed the lost Princess.

Back in the Water Town during another Centaur race, Lizard Priest helped Baturu come to terms that her friend Silver Blaze, and even her sister the Centaur Waitress, were more than likely never returning to the Plains with her. Lizard Priest instead helps her understand that people and cultures change, but as long as they are ready to welcome their friends and families back with open arms, they will always have a place in their hearts.
