"The Truth Is, I Was the Strongest - Episode 4" begins with Haruto and Char on patrol. Flay insists on accompanying them despite Haruto's reluctance. During their patrol, they encounter a group of thieves. Flay and Haruto, disguised as the Black Knight and the Crimson Knight, confront the thieves. Despite Haruto's instructions to avoid graphic violence, Flay attacks the thieves with her magic, causing them to flee.
Later, Haruto and Flay come across a group of summoners preparing to attack the royal group. Haruto intervenes and discovers that the summoners belong to the personal unit of the Queen Consort. Their goal is to assassinate Charlotte Zenfis, Haruto's sister, as her magical abilities could surpass those of the Queen. Furious at this revelation, Haruto decides to protect his family and confront the Queen.
Meanwhile, Prince Laius is upset about his defeat against Haruto in a previous encounter. His companions advise him not to feel ashamed of his loss. Laius is curious about Haruto's abilities and wonders if Haruto could be a returned demon—a descendant of a demon-human union possessing exceptional physical abilities and high mana reserves.
Later, Haruto speaks with his father, the Margrave, about the Queen Consort's plans. His father reveals that the Queen Consort, also known as the Lightning Princess, is a powerful figure who maintains the kingdom's stability. Should she die, it would likely trigger a civil war. His father suggests that Charlotte, due to her intelligence and magical prowess, could one day lead the kingdom. Haruto resolves to protect Charlotte until she is ready to become Queen.
The episode ends with Haruto planning a reunion with his birth mother, the Queen Consort, for the first time in a decade, preparing for the impending confrontation.
