Episode 6 begins with a crucial conference of the seven Crimson Lords, focusing on Terakomari Gandesblood’s suitability as a Crimson Lord. The conference, attended by all Crimson Lords except for the commander of the First Unit, Petrose Calamaria, starts with a recognition of Terakomari’s impressive victories but quickly devolves into a heated debate about her true capabilities.

Flöte Mascarail, a prominent figure at the conference, questions Terakomari’s qualifications, citing her poor academic performance and lack of physical prowess. She implies that Terakomari’s aristocratic background played a role in her appointment as a Crimson Lord. Empress Karen intervenes, demanding concrete evidence for these accusations.

Tensions escalate when Flöte challenges Terakomari to a duel to prove her worth. In a bold moment, Terakomari accepts the challenge but then appoints her maid Villhaze to fight in her stead. Villhaze refuses, and the duel is postponed.

As the conference votes on Terakomari’s status, a shocking revelation occurs: Lady Delphyne, one of the Crimson Lords, is found dead, apparently murdered. The discovery throws the conference into chaos, with accusations flying and the true culprit remaining unknown.

In a private conversation, Villhaze confesses to Terakomari that she poisoned Delphyne to prevent her from voting against Terakomari. This revelation is kept hidden from the others.

The episode takes a new turn when a "War of the Crimson Lords" is proposed to test both Terakomari and the new recruit Sakuna Memoir. This battle, a significant event for the Crimson Lords, is approved by Lady Karen, setting the stage for a dramatic showdown.

Meanwhile, Terakomari reveals her desire to become a novelist and shares her manuscript with Sakuna. Sakuna, in turn, displays her admiration for Terakomari by showing her a room filled with items and life-sized dolls of Terakomari, hinting at her deep obsession.

The episode ends with Terakomari and Sakuna forming a bond of friendship and resolving to face the upcoming War of the Crimson Lords together.
