In the final episode, Prince Kyle of Coyolles arrives accompanied by the kingdom's finest scholar, Michelle Evan. Michelle, who was once Rishes's mentor, visits her and is fascinated by her botanical knowledge and unique nail art. She suggests that Rishe become her student during her stay.

Rishe agrees to learn from Michelle, who suspects that she intends to create a remedy for Prince Kyle from the herbs in her garden. During a subsequent meeting with Kyle and Michelle, the scholar endorses Rishe's healing concoction. Kyle agrees to endure the unpleasant taste of the medicine if it can improve his condition.

Prince Arnold unexpectedly becomes Rishe's escort, perhaps because he feels uneasy about her interactions with Kyle and Michelle. At a soirée celebrating Kyle's visit, Rishe attempts to secretly avoid Count Lawvine to maintain her anonymity.

On a balcony, Rishe overhears a conversation between Kyle and Arnold, in which Kyle proposes a military alliance with Galkhein and offers Coyolles's resources without seeking profit. The desperate Arnold declines the offer, suspecting that Coyolles's mineral resources are depleted. Despite Kyle's plea for mutually beneficial assistance, Arnold rejects him and suggests conquest as the simpler solution.

This episode marks a pivotal moment in the story's development, differing from previous cycles where Arnold eventually conquers Coyolles after ascending to emperor. Rishe sees this as a critical juncture that could alter future events, including a potential war that historically could lead to their downfall within a decade.
