Shuro and Kabru leave the dungeon. Shuro wants to report to the island lord but doesn’t want to reveal anything about Falin and Laios. Kabru learns of a nearby Canaries ship and suggests fleeing soon. The Canaries investigate and control dungeons.

At the island lord’s residence, they meet Namari, who reports that the island lord is likely speaking with the Canaries. Kabru shares that his hometown once relied on a dungeon until monsters escaped and the Canaries intervened, resulting in many deaths, including his family. He doesn’t want a world where certain races hold more power.

Kabru and Shuro inform about Falin’s transformation, causing panic. Kabru reflects on his choice to help adventurers instead of becoming one himself and believes Laios can reach the dungeon’s heart. He vows to stop the Canaries from interfering with Laios’ fate.

The island lord allows the Canaries to proceed, but Kabru confronts them and proposes sealing the dungeon and evacuating everyone. A Canary expresses doubts and announces an investigation. Senshi and the others prepare an egg dish, and Izutsumi senses a mysterious presence, which Laios identifies as a ghost that’s been following them since Marcille’s petrification.

The ghost reveals it saved them from a trap and tells them to meet someone. It leads them to a village near the Golden Land, where they meet a villager who invites them to explore. Later, they encounter Yaad, the master of the Golden Land and grandson of Lord Delgal. During a meal, Yaad explains that the mad mage cursed his people so they feel no hunger. Marcille reveals Delgal’s fate and reward in the dungeon, and Yaad thanks them for freeing Delgal.

Yaad explains that those who fled became fiends and lost their identity. He believes Laios and his friends must defeat the mad mage and free his people. He mentions a winged sword, which Marcille identifies as Kensuke. Laios notices a winged lion emblem on Kensuke’s blade, representing the Golden Land’s guardian deity.

Yaad explains that the guardian beast is trapped deep in the dungeon but can guide them through prophecies. He says Laios is prophesied to become king of the Golden Land and asks if he can fulfill this destiny.
