Episode Title:
Aura the Guillotine
Episode Description:
Fern and Stark manage to get Granat to safety in the town church, where he warns that Aura's trump card is a magic artifact called the Scales of Obedience, which measure the amount of mana she and opponent possesses. The one with the greater amount of mana can then dominate the loser, which is how she has created an army of puppets. Frieren destroys some of Aura's puppets, and seeing that she still has no understanding of humanity, concludes that she can kill her like a monster. Back in the city, Lügner and his assistant Linie ambush Fern and Stark. While the demons initially have the upper hand, Stark learns that Linie copied Eisen's fighting style from observing him in a battle, and uses that to his advantage to purposely take a blow from her axe so he can land a killing blow on her. Fern seizes the initiative by taking advantage of her main strength of being able to cast her spells more quickly than even Frieren, eventually overwhelming Lügner's defenses and killing him.
