Episode Title:
Castling Lucciola.
Episode Description:
In a flashback, Delphine introduces a younger Dio to his new servant, whom he names Lucciola. In the present, Delphine greets Dio as the new Maestro at the Guild Fortress. Using the Urbanus as a shield, the Silvana heads into Guild territory to recapture Exile. Meanwhile, Anatoray and Disith soldiers seize the Guild's Claudia Units. In the ensuing fight aboard one of the battleships, Mullin is seriously wounded, much to Dunya's worry. Delphine learns of the uprising and recalls the Claudia Units. Lucciola, who can no longer bear to see Dio's condition, tells Claus to leave with Alvis and Dio while he covers for their escape. Before they leave, Lucciola gives Alvis a device which allows them to communicate with the Silvana. After defeating Delphine's guards, Lucciola goes to confront Delphine while also killing Cicada. Lucciola remembers that Dio had accepted him as a friend rather than a servant in their childhood. Delphine gives Lucciola a ring as a reward, only for him to disintegrate into thin air.
