In the latest episode of the anime, we uncovered the secret behind the legend of Avos Dilhevia and Misa's control over the legend. But this week, we see the extent of the problem and the measures Anos and his group will take.
The pure-blooded demons authorized by Misa are now able to drain the mana of every mixed-blood resident of Dilhade, and the more a person believes in Avos, the more they are controlled by Misa. Unfortunately, those at the center of the legend of Avos Dilhevia, such as the Seven Elder Demon Lords, are forced into these roles, even against their will.
However, Misa has a weakness—the legend that empowers her also limits her control. The greatest threat to Misa is Anos' sword Venuzdonoa, as it appears in neither Anos' nor Avos' legend and thus is not under Misa's control. This leads to a race for the sword, as whoever possesses it will have a significant advantage in the upcoming battle.
This episode also marks the return of a villain from the first season—Anos' teacher, Emilia. When we last saw her, she attempted to kill Anos' mother and had to face the consequences—death is too light a punishment for those who attack Anos' loved ones. Anos killed Emilia and had her reincarnated as a mixed-blood demon to ensure that even if she committed suicide, she would be reborn as one. When the Avos Purge occurs, Emilia is forced to confront her former beliefs as a pure-blooded demon. Though she retains the soul and mindset of a pure-blood, she is accepted by no one who shares her views. Yet, the kindness of Anos' mother, the very person she once tried to kill, opens her eyes to the truth. Emilia realizes how cruel and foolish her past stance was and that it was based on a lie. She now knows that Anos is the reincarnated Demon King of Tyranny.
Trapped in a new body and unable to be reborn again, Emilia must find a new purpose in life. But surrounded by kind and optimistic people like Anos' mother and father, she might just succeed. As a reward for her protection, Anos offers to restore her old body and leave her with Misa if that is truly what she desires.
