In Episode 5, Freya, the goddess of love, reveals her long-standing disguise as Syr, a humble waitress at the tavern "Hostess of Fertility." Disguised as Syr, Freya was able to build close relationships with Bell Cranel and his companions and developed a deep affection for Bell's pure heart. To keep her true identity a secret, she occasionally had Horn, a member of her Familia, take on her divine form through a spell.


After realizing that her feelings for Bell had grown beyond mere interest, Freya decides to abandon the Syr persona and declares that she has "killed Syr." She confronts Bell, but he rejects her confession of love and admits that his heart belongs to someone else, whom he longs to stand beside. Freya is devastated by the rejection and resolves to win Bell over at any cost.


The Freya Familia launches a targeted attack on the Hestia Familia and their allies. Amid the chaos, Freya approaches Hestia and demands that she give up Bell. Hestia refuses, stating that Bell is like a beloved child to her. Hermes attempts to mediate by mentioning the divine rules that prevent the transfer of a Familia member within the first year. Freya agrees but hints that she may take steps to expedite the process.


Unwilling to wait, Freya uses her divine magic to alter the memories of all Orario's inhabitants. She addresses the gathered citizens, accepts their potential anger, and declares her desire to possess Bell. Her spell distorts reality, making everyone believe that Bell has always belonged to the Freya Familia.


Bell awakens in the Freya Familia estate, confused by the unfamiliar surroundings. Searching for answers, he notices that his friends—including Hestia, Liliruca, Welf, and even his advisor Eina—no longer recognize him. The city treats him as the esteemed "Rabbit's Foot" of the Freya Familia. Amid this twisted reality, Bell realizes that he is the only one unaffected by Freya's spell.


The episode ends with Bell isolated in a world where no one remembers his true identity. Freya's drastic actions set the stage for an impending conflict as Bell grapples with his altered existence and searches for a way to restore the world as it was.
