Summary Story 201810

Emperor ordered the weapon to start siphoning the energy from the crystal, but Faisalith, despite merging with the weapon, resisted. As Emperor tried to force his magic into the weapon to make consciousness of Faisalith to disappear, Faisalith used the Weapon's power to teleport everyone on it away.

Lasswell group met up with Reagan's group, Mairo and Erumauru/Juraga to share the information. Erumauru said Faisalith's physical body had already fused with Weapon's core and it is difficult to extract her from Weapon. However, there is a method: Drop of Origin of Gungan, which restores whoever to the oiginal state. Juraga agreed to help and Lid offered to assist since Drop of Origin could not be retrieved by one person alone. Then they teleported away.

According to Erumauru, Emperor need not return to the Weapon and could force his magic into Faisalith remotely. They split into two groups - Reagan's group going to find Emperor and stop him and Lasswells group heading towards the weapon along with Erumauru and Mairo.

Then scene switches to Sol and Hyou. Hyou cooked soup and offered to Sol. Sol said the soup was terrible. Hyou couldn't believe and tried the soup himself and found it terrible too. Sol said since Hyou went through the effort he would finish his portion. And he had a feeling he didn't dislike but didn't understand. Sol said about he found something he wanted to destroy as much as Rain but did not elaborate. Then they were found by Nichol and Sakura.

Despite finding scene of Sol and Rain having soup questionable, they explained the situation to Hyou, and said that the plan to become the next Emperor was no longer valid since the world would be destroyed. Hyou agreed but he refused to work together with Lasswell, insisting that because of his royal bloodline of Ardore. Hyou wanted to fight alone, but Sol encouraged Nichol and Sakura to tag along persistently like he did, to which Nichol and Sakura agreed. "To commemorate this occasion of us forming a party, lets share the delicious soup Rain cooked." Sakura tried and collapsed / (implied) puked.

Lasswell, Jake, Fina and Mairo had a conversation about how Lasswell could not work together with Rain since their goal should be the same now. However Fina said that she would not give up and things would work out somehow.

Nichol asked Hyou how he got into orders. Hyou said that he found an opportunity that Emperor was away from Ardore Tower and tried to assassinate him. He defeated then Delta Star Demoldore and faced Emperor. However, he was completely no match of Emperor despite him turning all his emotions into strength. Seeing that Rain being alone and saying he wanted to change the world, Emperor offered the position of an Orders and suggested Rain to become the next emperor. However he could also deliver a killing blow to Rain if he wished too. Eventually Rain accepted the offer to join Orders.

Nichol said they may meet Reagan or Lasswell groups on the way since they had the same goal now. Hyou explained that he felt complicated meeting Fina, since he cut him. The story was that after Hyou defeated Reagan in the beginning of Season 1, Emperor and the orders received report that a group is inciting a rebellion, having a description similar to Lasswell's group. Emperor spotted Hyou's hesitation and asked if they were his friends. Emperor said that he only offered the position because Hyou was alone. So Hyou was ordered to cut one of the group to prove that he was indeed alone, otherwise he had to leave Orders. As Hyou returned to his room troubled with the order, Majin Fina appeared and told him to cut Fina. Majin Fina said Hyou should have learnt that things in Paladia couldn't be done as cleanly. She offered to teach Hyou a spellblade that crystallized wound so that it would not endanger life, adding that since it's Fina she would not resent Hyou.

Yego thought of a plan to kill Emperor. She would grab Emperor's hands so that he could not erect magical barrier and Cid would penetrate her to detonate the bomb planted in her, so that she could take out Emperor while without barrier. If it was Cid he could escape rapidly. Cid got angry and refused, saying the would be another way. Yego urged Cid for his resolution should all other plans failed and it was the only way.

As Reagan's group thought of a location Emperor would be and was heading there, they were stopped by Levnard. According to Levnard, he wanted a world of peace that people could be united, so he joined others. As he got seated as the Alpha Star, he understood how it was impossible and was utterly disappointed in mankind. So he agreed with Emperor's way to wipe out mankind, saying that even if Emperor was defeated, the world would still be torn with strives. Seeing that they could not agree, they fought. They managed to defeat Levnard somehow.

However, Levnard drank some concoction and powered up. Reagan tried to stop him but was stopped by barrier magic like Emperor's. Citra rushed to Reagan's aid, sacrificing her life force to boost Reagan's strength. As Citra used up her life force, Reagan managed to defeat Levnard. They rushed to aid Citra but Citra said she used up her life force and healing magic wouldn't work.
Citra bade farewell, saying that she always wanted to apologize to Sophia. During Citra's apparent death, Yego rushed to Levnard and found some leftovers of the concoction. Accordingly drop of origin was one of the ingredients of the concoction, so it might restore Citra's lost life force. And Citra came back to life. Reagan urged Citra to continue living if she wanted to make up for him, Sophia, Rain and Lasswell.

They pressed on and got attacked by Emperor's flurries of magic. As they fought back, Reagan used True Tranquility, which triggered the Emperor hard. He said he invented the three Tranquilities to surpass Reagan, and he could not forgive Reagan to use it, something about one who invented Tranquility was worthy to be king. Emperor went berserk and stormed Reagan's group with spells. Apparently it was a good chance to attack since Emperor lost his cool. In an opening, Yego tried to execute her plan and begged Cid to cooperate. But Cid ended up saving Yego instead of penetrating her. Emperor resumed his calm and summoned the three imperial stars. However this time they were simply monsters and not imparted soul.

Even though they managed to defeat the Imperial stars, Emperor continued to summon more Imperial Stars, quickly overpowering Reagan's group. As Reagan's group is in a pinch, Hyou's group appeared and saved them. Then they started the counter attack, especially Folka and Citra being revitalized by Nichol's presence. Eventually, Sol and Hyou's combination attack overpowered Emperor and Emperor was forced to retreat unexpectedly. Everyone was impressed by how well Sol and Hyou worked together, they did not even need language to understand each other. Sol guessed that Emperor could not teleport far due to the wounds he suffered, and suggested to chase after him.

Hyou and Sol caught up and defeated Emperor. As Hyou was going to deliver the finishing blow, Levnard showed up and repelled him, launching at him a magical attack. Sol covered Hyou and took the damage for him, then Levnard and Emperor managed to escape. However, Sol took too much damage from covering Hyou an was dying. Sol apologized for not being able to fulfill his promised and Hyou thanked him for everything. Sol smiled as he was thanked by Hyou, thinking how wonderful it resonated to him. Sol thanked Hyou that he finally got to destroy something he wanted to destroy the most, him own self without emotions. Hyou and Sol thanked each other, and said that they were really glad to have journeyed together. Sol faded away shortly after Reagan, Nichol and Sakura arrived.

Scene switched to Zeno, somehow worn and breathless, muttering something he still had to do, "to Lasswell... final...". As he collapsed on the ground, Majin Fina showed up and urged him to go on. Zeno wondered who she was for a second but somehow understood her intention. He said he understood and would squeeze out all of his strength until the final moment. Majin Fina; "Huhu, as expected from you. Let's go, to Lasswell's final battle."
