Episode Title:
Burning Blood
Episode Description:
Ornest is knocked down while Gloria continues to recover. Gloria is surprised when Ornest throws Almaresteca away in favour of punching him in the face, a tactic he used against Alec in the past. Ornest explains that since spilling his blood makes him stronger beating him up should keep him weak. Gloria cuts his own stomach open to cast a huge spell. Meanwhile, Marbell reaches the Guild and informs Leviel and Luorg that Olivia and Lasting Period entered the labyrinth, infuriating Leviel at their recklessness. Alec appears just in time to save Ornest, who quickly explains Core-eater deliberately targeted Yorha for some purpose including the labyrinth core. Olivia and Krasia chase after Core-eater while Gloria becomes frustrated Alce keeps using Reflect to send his spells back at him. Entering the labyrinth Leviel explains Gloria and Core-eater are probably Shadow Cultists, members of Shadow Guild that worship demons in exchange for greater power. Gloria activates his demon powers and becomes too fast for even Alec to hit with Thunderbolt. Ornest recalls his brother was an even greater spearman than he was, but he died of an illness before Ornest was able to surpass him. Meanwhile, Melea and Core-eater locate the dungeon core.
