In Episode 56, the city of Priestella is under immense pressure as several Sin Archbishops of the Witch Cult wreak havoc. Emilia learns from one of Regulus' wives, known as Number 184, that Regulus himself is the Sin Archbishop of Greed. She realizes that he plans to marry her and that any attempt to escape could result in the city being flooded. Emilia is shaken by the way Regulus' wives silently accept his abusive treatment, highlighting the oppression he exerts over them.
Meanwhile, Subaru regains consciousness after a collision in the waterway caused by the flooding in the city. Alongside Priscilla and Liliana, he learns that the Sin Archbishop of Lust, Capella, has made new demands: the Book of Wisdom, an artificial spirit, and a marriage to a silver-haired girl—Emilia. Subaru notices that his injured leg has miraculously healed thanks to dragon's blood, a rare and powerful substance once obtained from Lugunica's royal family. However, he observes that only his leg has been healed, suggesting a limitation to the dragon's blood's effects.
As they make their way through the devastated city, Priscilla reveals the destruction Capella has caused by transforming citizens into half-beasts. They also witness the Authority of the Sin Archbishop of Wrath, Sirius, amplifying the negative emotions of the populace and inciting riots. Liliana uses her singing to calm the enraged people in a shelter, demonstrating how hope can prevail even in the deepest despair.
At the government building, Subaru reunites with Julius and learns that Crusch has been severely injured by Capella's power and is suffering from a mysterious ailment. Determined to save everyone without sacrifice, Subaru passionately declares his intent to defeat the Sin Archbishops. He vows to free Emilia from Regulus' grasp, restore Rem's memories taken by Gluttony, quell the riots spread by Sirius, and reverse the transformations caused by Capella.
Emilia resolves to change the injustices and attempts to gather information that could aid Subaru and the others. She finds Regulus' device and unexpectedly encounters Al.
