Chapter 116

Spell to Return (の) is the one hundred and sixteenth chapter of Kanehito Yamada and Abe Tsukasa's Frieren: Beyond Journey's End.

Summary
Right after the events of the previous chapter, Frieren reads through the book discussing the Goddess's Monument, and figures out that the spell to return can be found in the "Time-Traveling Bird" chapter of the scripture, which no spells have ever been deciphered from. Eisen proposes waiting out the time, but Frieren says that she wishes to return to the present. Himmel declares that the rest of the Hero Party will decipher the spell after they defeat the Demon King, and carve it onto the Goddess's Monument for future Frieren to read. The party then begins to trek back to the monument so Frieren can cast the spell to return. Meanwhile, Solitär, Grausam, Rivale, and Tot gather by the monument and prepare to try to kill Frieren.
