Episode Title:
The Young Girls' Reward.
Episode Description:
Everyone celebrates Lux's recovery after returning home from training camp. Airi mentions that the heroines were the ones who took care of Lux although they would argue who would do the task. Relie reveals that she was berated for her act of investigating the ruins without permission but she explains that she got off lightly due to the Kingdom's Foundation Festival taking place soon. Forced into a corner, Lux divides his time between the girls starting with Airi. While they walk around the city, Airi explains that a Drag-Ride tournament will take place during the festival. She also warns him that the "Empire's Assassin Blade", the strongest Drag-Knight serving under the Emperor, has escaped from prison and that Lux is their target as he destroyed the empire. They later separate and Lux meets up with Celes who had dressed formally for the occasion. Lux, on the other hand, is made to wear a butler uniform to avoid being recognized by the other students and they happily roam the city. After their date, Lux, now dressed formally, is then taken by the Triad to Krulcifer for his next date which is a social gathering. After a dance, they step out into a balcony where Krulcifer kisses Lux again and reveals that her maid, Alterize, also attended the gathering to monitor them. Lux is then taken to Phi and they spend their date in a church where Lux rests on her lap while she once again thanks him for saving her as Relie happily watches them with the Triad nearby. As Lux returns to the school, he met by Lisha who requests him to be her knight and that she would like to present him as such to the public when she makes her speech at the festival's end but Lux says that he will think about it. The next day, as Lux and Airi are talking alone, they are met by the aforementioned escapee who introduces herself as Yoruka Kirihime who calls Lux her master due to a contract she made with his father years ago and is willing to do whatever he says. Shocked by this, Lux has her wait until the festival ends so that he can speak with her properly. Later that night, while Lux is bathing, Yoruka joins him causing him to scream in surprise and they are discovered by the Triad and an angry Lisha. After bathing and calming everyone down, Lux questions Yoruka about her intentions. She does not answer and instead asks Lux how long he intends to deceive everyone as he is more than capable of destroying the New Kingdom and re-establishing the Empire but Lux replies that he does not desire to. Yoruka is then attacked by the girls but she fights back with her own Divine Drag-Ride and eventually flees while Saniya, Ragreed and Hayes, who were the ones that freed Yoruka, watch from afar.
