The Eminence in Shadow Episode 5 is set to release upcoming week. Daisuke Aizawa’s light novel series “The Eminence in Shadow” is illustrated by Tōzai. After first serializing online in May 2018, it was acquired by Enterbrain, who have been publishing it since November 2018.
We see in episode 4 that Alexia is tortured by knights for finding Alexia’s location, but having trained himself to endure pain, Cid pretends to be a pathetic but innocent NPC, thinking he looks cool by taking her blood next to a mutated human girl. Cid has been trained to withstand pain, so he pretends to be a pathetic but innocent NPC, thinking it makes him look cool. Five days later, Princess Iris orders Cid to be released.
Alpha tells Cid that the Shadow Garden has continued to monitor the cult while increasing its influence. As Cid discovers Shadow Garden has become a powerful organization, she is impressed at how Alpha and her Shadows still occasionally visit him to play role-playing games with him. A group of 114 loyal soldiers are to be used by Alpha to rescue Alexia; Cid plays along to amuse himself, realizing Alexia has been kidnapped but believes the 114 soldiers are merely background actors hired for entertainment.
The Eminence in Shadow Episode 4 Review
After being blamed for the abduction of Alexia in ‘Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute’ episode 4, titled ‘Sadism’s Rewards,’ Cid is treated horribly after being blamed, while his sister fights to see him released. As he is finally released, he learns that the Shadow Garden is active in the town and is planning on unleashing mayhem to search for the Princess. As a result of his arrest for possibly kidnapping the Princess, Cid is tortured by two ruthless men.
Although they beat him up relentlessly, they failed to gather any critical information about the kidnapping. Meanwhile, Alexia realizes she is strapped to a chair and ends up in a secret refuge. The abductor approaches and poses as a Cult member, claiming to want to rebuild the monster with her blood. Meanwhile, Alexia is paralyzed as she watches the beast-like thing peer into her heart. Meanwhile, Cid’s sister battles the guards to release him, only to be arrested herself after doing so.
As Zenon and Iris debate Iris’s sister’s kidnapping investigation, he claims that Cid is exceedingly unlikely to be involved. Cid is held under surveillance, but he is soon released and continues to act as though he is only a weak side character to conceal his true identity from the guards. She assures him that after examining the Cult, they have become more powerful as a group and will soon arrive at his home.
When Beta arrives at Cid’s place, she finds him seated on a chair, ready for the night ahead. She observes that the night with no moon is symbolically appropriate for their ascension. She goes on to say that their team has gathered all available employees in the Royal Capitol, totaling more than a hundred members.
Cid, understandably, is skeptical and asks Beta if she hired any extras. Beta does not fully comprehend the grounds for his reservations and says that their strategy is to strike Fenrir sect hideouts with unexpected attacks. They are members of the Diabolos Cult, which operates in various parts of the Capitol. In the meantime, the Shadow Garden will continue to look for evidence of Princess Alexia’s magic. The crew will arrest her as soon as she is found. Meanwhile, a massive explosion can be heard, and black smoke fills the sky.
It’s an indication that Delta, too, has sprung into action and is viciously slaughtering her foes. When Iris learns that an organized organization is killing innocent people, she orders her squad to secure the school and travels to the front lines. Fearing for his life, the kidnapper injects Alexia’s blood into the beast-like creature he has abused for so long. It immediately evolves into something quite frightening. Although Alexia anticipated it to murder the kidnapper, she kills him abruptly and without hesitation. However, for some reason, she releases the Princess. Despite this, Alexia’s fiance Zenon, a member of the Cult, confronts her.
To gain Alexia’s blood, he agreed to participate in exchange for being promoted to Knight of Rounds. Her instinct is to fight, but Zenon is too strong for her and tosses her around like nothing more than a toy. Zenon is rendered dumbfounded when Cid unexpectedly arrives in front of him after learning about the hideout. He introduces himself as the Shadow, a nighttime hunter. Cid discovers Alexia’s resolve to save her as a result, and in Midgar Royal Spellsword Academy, he discovers Zenon to be the traitor.
