As the Fairy King's Forest, Ban uses his blood to restore Sacred Tree and to heal King before threatening Gerheade if she harms Elaine’s body again as he leaves with Jericho with no intention of rejoining the Sins. Back at Edinburgh Hill, Dreyfus informs the commandants that magic once abundant in the ground has transferred in humans, inspiring the demons to consume human souls to regain their full strength by summoning lesser demons to gather them. Back at Camelot, despite not being at full strength, with Merlin casting Perfect Cube on Arthur, Elizabeth, and Hawk, Galand overpowers Meliodas and Diane. Merlin attempts to deceive him into a false sense of security, only to fall victim to the petrification effects of Galand's Commandment of Truth for lying to him. Meliodas is forced to unleash his demonic power, only to be defeated. Galand proceeds to kill Meliodas, Slader, and Diane while smashing Merlin, taking his leave as a restored Gowther laughs while watching him leave. Meanwhile, Gilthunder and his group come across a village attacked by a Red Demon harvesting souls. Though they destroy the demon with the souls restored to their bodies, the Holy Knights find themselves facing a Grey Demon as Hendrickson arrives to their aid.
