The episode begins with a pivotal moment as Helga's kiss transfers a dark aura from her to a coffin, signaling the awakening of her true body. This event immediately catches the attention of Cugat and the demon sword Ashgan, who sense an ominous change and abruptly halt their confrontation. Helga showcases her enhanced abilities by shattering an ice wall to approach the two.
In another scene, the Executioner is confused as he examines his head, hinting at a subplot filled with intrigue. The battle intensifies when Ashaf informs Guideau about the demon sword's preference for living victims, complicating the use of her right hand. Despite Helga's skepticism about their chances of success, Ashaf introduces the concept of beings capable of erasing the world. This becomes evident when Guideau effortlessly counters the monster's attack, demonstrating her power.
The elemental's decision to favor Guideau over the demon sword reveals his fear of her. This development leads to Cugat and Guideau joining forces to attack the monster with ice. Their relentless efforts culminate in Guideau striking Ashgan with an ice block.
Cugat seizes the opportunity and summons a fog monster to assault the demon sword, which deflects the attack with a mighty slash, wounding Guideau. At this moment, Ashgan's regained strength—diminished by long imprisonment—becomes apparent. As the demon lunges at Guideau, she counters with her metal arm, delivering the decisive blow that triggers a flashback in Ashgan, reminding him of his past encounter with the witch Quena.
As the story progresses, Guideau employs a unique strategy to incapacitate the Executioner from a distance, resulting in his capture and interrogation by Cugat. The Executioner's insights into the Church's desire for the demon sword and his personal motives add further depth to the narrative. Helga's determination to punish the Executioner and the treacherous Paladin reflects her thirst for vengeance, entrusting their fate to Cugat.
The episode concludes with a comforting and promising message: Ashaf vows to protect Helga and hints at Ashgan's resurrection.
