The war game reaches a critical turning point when Hedin—a high-ranking member of the Freya Familia—betrays his own faction by attacking their troops, destabilizing their dominance. Through his calculated act of sabotage, he grants the allied army a decisive advantage, though his loyalty to Freya remains mysteriously tied to his desire to protect her "true self."

Meanwhile, reinforcements from the "Hostess of Fertility" join the fray: Mia (aka Demi Ymir, Freya’s former commander), Anya, and Chloe. Mia engages in a brutal clash with Ottarl—Freya’s strongest warrior—showcasing her unmatched strength and her turbulent history with the Familia.

Bell reaffirms his unwavering resolve to save Syr, whose identity is inextricably linked to Freya’s fractured psyche. Despite Syr’s desperate pleas for help, Bell is determined to end her destructive obsession—no matter the cost. Haruhime risks exposure by using her forbidden Level Boost ability to empower her allies, disregarding warnings of the dire consequences. Through coordinated tactics—illusions, poison, and smoke screens—they divide and overwhelm the Bringar, Freya’s elite warriors, marking a pivotal shift in the battle.

The episode culminates in the hard-won victory of the allies over the Bringar, leaving only Freya and Ottarl as the final obstacles. Only in the post-credits do Hedin’s true motives come to light: he calls his actions a necessary "purification" to preserve Freya’s essence—a revelation that further complicates alliances. As the battlefield narrows to a direct showdown, Bell’s allies prepare for the ultimate clash against the goddess and her unyielding champion.
