Initially contemplating asking **Beatrice** for help, Subaru ultimately decides to face **Sirius** alone, a decision that leads to his swift demise.
After his subsequent return, Subaru acknowledges that he cannot confront Sirius alone and seeks help from the legendary swordsman **Reinhard van Astrea**. However, even with Reinhard’s impressive abilities, the situation spirals out of control, resulting in another tragedy where Subaru and the crowd face annihilation due to Sirius’s overwhelming power.
Frustrated by his repeated failures, Subaru seeks out Beatrice again. She proposes using **Shamac**, a spell designed to nullify Sirius’s abilities, providing a tactical advantage. The episode culminates in a fierce confrontation between **Emilia** and Sirius, where Emilia manages to hold her ground briefly until the introduction of **Regulus Corneas**, who intervenes with intentions unknown.
