In the last episode, Rishe takes on the alias "Lucius" to train as a knight and allies with Theo to secure her position. Among her peers is Fritz, an admirer of Prince Arnold of Coyolles. They encounter Count Lawvine, who was executed by Arnold in a past timeline but is now alive and influential again.
Rishe and Arnold's day in the city begins with a visit to the marketplace, where Arnold introduces Rishe to a strange fruit. Their adventure leads them to a prestigious jeweler, where Rishe is to identify a fake gemstone among real ones. Using appraisal tools, she exposes all the gemstones as imitations, impressing Arnold and the jeweler. The purpose of the visit is revealed: selecting a gemstone for her engagement ring. Inspired by Arnold's eyes, Rishe chooses a similar blue hue for the gemstone.
The day ends with a view of the sunset at the city gate, where Arnold awaits a special guest: Prince Kyle of Coyolles, a figure from Rishe's past life as a knight and a former ally whom she once provided medical aid to. Kyle's arrival and his warm interaction with Rishe stir Arnold's jealousy—not out of distrust, but from emotional rivalry.
