Summary
After Jack is hit to the wall by the Devil's spell, he start to freeze. Nacht notices that Plumede is shaking, and thinks about how the two devils before him are from the highest order of the first layer of the Underworld, which is mapped to Qliphoth. Nacht thought that these devils would be equal to the Dark Triad, but realizes that they are on a completely different level. As the Devil's attack again, Nacht manages to dodge their attacks. The calls each other by their names, Lilith and Naamah, and comment about how the mana is delicious, which Nacht notices that the devils are playing.

Outside of the castle, people notices that roots that are coming out of the castle. Someone notices that the roots are absorbing mana form the world, which another wonders about the mass of nauseating magic. Suddenly a horde of devil break through the castle gate, which everyone freaks out about this. Meleoreona recognizes that mana and thinks about how its the same from back then. Suddenly the devil that Meleoreona was face gets back up, which Meleoreona comments about how the fight starts for real now.

Inside of the castle, Yuno attacks Zenon again which Zenon thinks about how he can't win with 70 percent. Yuno says that its over, but Zenon replies that it was a worthy effort but its not. At another location, Charlotte comments about how Vanica's magic is swelling even through her curse power was sealed. Elsewhere, Dante comments about how the first gate is open and the barrier that makes their contracts with the devils incomplete is gone. Dante, Zenon, and Vanica then use all 100 percent of their devils powers.

Dante pulls Jack towards him and apologizes to him for disturbing him while he was lying down, but they have a fight to continue. At Vanica's location, Rill worries about Charlotte since Vanica manages to get close to Charlotte. Vanica comments about how Charlotte is so mean since Vanica likes her so much. Vanica then asks if Charlotte wants to come with her. Elsewhere, Zenon manages to force Yuno to back away which Yuno notices that Zenon's power has gotten stronger and all of Zenon's damage has healed. Zenon comments about how Yuno victory was just a fragile fleeting dream.

Nacht uses his magic to see that the devils are everywhere, and thinks about how he has to defeat Morris or the situation will keep deteriorating. Nacht also thinks about how their is no telling what the devils of the highest order may do and that someone has to keep them occupied. Nacht figures out what they have to do in order to defeating Morris, keep the devils in check, and win. Nacht then asks Plumede to die with him. Eslewhere, Zenon says that Yuno and Langris will be the ones to die and not to worry since they have nowhere to return to in any case, which Yuno wonders what he means.

Back at the Clover Kingdom, people notices a large demon appearing and start to freak out. In the chamber, Asta and Liebe appear to finish their training.
