The teaser actually flashbacks some of Bell’s past adventures throughout the series while also managing to focus much upon what Bell figured out and he is willing to find for himself by the end of the third season.

After the defeat against the immensely powerful Asterius in the final episodes of DanMachi Season 3, Bell desires to become even stronger. So it is for sure that we will definitely see him better himself in Season 4 in all ways possible.

A short synopsis in the teaser of Season 4 reads as below

“Orario, the Labyrinth City— An enormous city that harbors a vast underground labyrinth known as the Dungeon…
It is here that a young boy who aspired to become an adventurer met a tiny goddess, made friends, challenged the Dungeon, and narrowly escaped death on several occasions, all while leveling up his skills…
That very same boy receives a letter. It contains a mission– an expedition into the Dungeon, deeper than he’s ever gone before. Facing uncharted territory, the boy sets out alongside his friends on a brand new journey…
This is the story of a boy as told by a goddess– a “Familia Myth.”
