Episode Title:
A New Journey
Episode Description:
Seika advises Amyu to submit to imprisonment temporarily. Principal confirms politicians likely want the hero gone. Seika invades the Imperial prison, slaughters the soldiers and finds Amyu. Amyu naively believes her innocence would be proven so Seika reveals to her she is the hero, so her innocence is irrelevant as her enemies will kill her regardless. Grey and Fiona appear and admit to plotting Amyu’s death. Humans and demons are currently in a stalemate so the existence of a hero could restart the war so it is better for Amyu to die. However, due to Seika protecting her Amyu has not yet had to unlock her Hero abilities, so Fiona offers to return them to the academy. Seika realises this was what Fiona had cleverly planned all along and never intended Amyu to be killed, so he decides they will leave the academy and go far away instead. Amyu regrets not returning to the academy but looks forward to starting their careers as adventurers. Fiona talks with an entity hiding in her shadow, revealing she knows Seika is the demon king and will give his life to protect the hero. She also arranges for Yifa and Mabel to join Seika and Amyu and begin adventuring as a team.
