The group reaches the final level of the labyrinth, where they face a gigantic, multi-headed hydra guarding Zenith, who is trapped inside a crystal. Paul loses his nerve and attacks impulsively, but Rudy's and Roxy's ranged magic proves ineffective against the hydra's scales. During the battle, Lize is injured, and the hydra's severed heads quickly regrow.
Together, the group retreats through the teleportation circle and regroups. A frustrated Paul confronts Rudy, who calmly insists that outbursts of anger won't help. The team sits in a circle and devises a new strategy based on Roxy's suspicion that the creature is a Manatite Hydra, vulnerable only at close range.
Returning to the fight, Paul, Lize, and Talhand attack the hydra's heads while Rudy burns the neck stumps to prevent regeneration. Despite this tactic, the hydra attempts to regrow its heads by biting below the burned areas. The battle is fierce and brutal. Rudy, who gets dangerously close to the hydra, is saved by Paul, who takes a hit for him.
Finally, they succeed. The last head is severed by Roxy and burned, causing the hydra to collapse. But the victory is bittersweet. Paul succumbs to his injuries and smiles at Rudy in his final moments. Rudy, who has lost his left arm, manages to close the wound but cannot regenerate the limb.
The return to Rapan is quiet and somber. Lilia greets the group joyfully upon seeing Zenith but is devastated when she learns of Paul's death. Rudy's reunion with his mother is marred by her inability to speak and the possibility that she no longer recognizes him after so many years.
