Episode Title:
Taboo Skills
Episode Description:
Ayla realises Dratena has control of the undead Count Montes, and through him his summoned servant the Soul Reaper, a monster that can create undead. Dratena explains about Taboo Skills, skills so unpopular their owners are rejected by society. Montes' summoning was considered Taboo; people feared his monsters and sent assassins after him, but all were made undead by the Soul Reaper, including Montes himself. Light realises Fruitmaster might be considered Taboo if it became public. Lena destroys Soul Reaper while Light exorcises Montes. Before he fully disappears Dratena forces Montes to summon Wicked Dragon, which not even S Rank adventurers can defeat. Dratena loses control of it and is rescued by a man in a mask. Ayla gives Light four more skill fruits; the useless skills Insect Resistance and Cat Charmer but also Weapon Durability Booster. With both his and Lena's swords broken Light cannot use Durability Booster and must rely on the fourth skill Sleep Pixie that emits a sleeping powder so powerful even Wicked Dragon is put to sleep. The mansion collapses, burying the dragon. The quest complete they return home where Light collapses. Holy Sister, revealed to be Dratena's master the Black Swan, starts to consider Light might be valuable in a way she had not foreseen yet.
