The Banished Court Magician Aims to Become the Strongest Episode 5 English Dubbed Episode Title: The Useless Man and the Bratty Kid Episode Description: Alec destroys the Armour but collapses from magical exhaustion. Ornest insists Alec isn't allowed to keep secrets; if something is worrying him, he needs to tell them. Loki agrees to recommend Lasting Period for the S rank promotion exam. At the guild, Alec is visited by Vogan who scolds him for not telling Regulus how weak he actually is. Alec points out Regulus wouldn't have believed him anyway. Vogan warns Alec that Regulus is in town looking for revenge. Needing closure, Alec visits Regulus and is unsurprised to find Regulus still insisting nobles are superior and that commoners like Alec have nothing of value to teach him. To prove it he challenges Alec to a duel but halfway through he admits he read Alec's guide to floor 30 and realized it was perfect. He was forced to recognize Alec was both stronger and smarter than him, which only made him more determined to beat him. Alec defeats him so Regulus breaks down crying, genuinely not knowing what he is supposed to do. Alec admits he is still angry at Regulus. Amazingly, Regulus apologizes so Alec advises him to move forward by discovering his own path. Regulus returns Alec's court magician robe along with a letter from the King offering him his old job back any time he wants it. Alec and Regulus agree they hate each other, yet Regulus finds he is happy with how things ended.
