----------------------------------------
So Theo is now officially recognized as a Lord. I think he deserves the achievement for making the uprising successful. Well done Theo.

Ugh, I can't stand Mirza sitting in that throne. Seems his forces are making the next move and he doesn't look happy. Marrine's alliance with him still feels very awkward.

The episode was okay but didn't feel too exciting even with the developing events. It'll be interesting to see how Theo can handle his role as more people now trusts him.

Considering what their alliance was built on that's only natural. Theo builds alliances through charisma and trust while Marrine built her alliance with Milza through sex. It's easy to see which one is more reliable.

That witch was really cringy. Theo is now a Lord is gathering his forces to invade Altirk to take down Milza. Milza is really pissed at Theo and is determined that he will defeat him. We'll see.

From knight to earl thats quite the promotion. Well that execution didn't go exactly as the black witch planned. The academy though looks suspicious. The free lords actions while effective only provided Milza with the opportunity he needed to crush retaliate. Hmm so Laura came back after her dramatic death. Its good that Theo realised that now wasn't the time to change leaders. The meeting between Marrine and Milza and the Nord lord was interesting though. Looks like the battle against Milza will be a turning point in this war. A interesting episode that did a good job of showing the state of the war for both sides as well as what Theo's return brought to the table. Looking forward to the next episode.

I for one would not hesitate to have a 'business deal' with Milza.

But seriously, this episode is like a big giant death flag to him. I'm interesting in his helper, who is he that suddenly appear and offer very valuable opinions to Milza?

Oh, Rossini suddenly being very useful to Theo is too convenience. It's like he was made into a likable character in the first place

That witch is crazy tho. She summoned the Demon Lord, I was expecting something more in that scene. Theo finally got his rank up.

This episode was a preparation for the war to come. The episode was ok there isn't really something good to highlight. Mirza is a poor character, always obsessed with Theo and goes mad everytime they speak about Theo, but because of that he will suffer major loses.

That alliance reunion felt weird. Meanwhile on Theo's side people trust him more.

I've been slowly liking this show recently after so long but this was a dull episode.

However, I'm happy that Theo got to be a lord again. Earned it.

Theo is a lord again. Deserved. He's got some hard to please allies though. And that Moreno dude looks dodgy as heck.

I really, really, really dont want to see Mirza beating our main pair. I normally never do this, but could someone familiar with the material spoil me (in thick spoiler tags of course) if Theo and co manage to kill him now? Thanks in advance.

Well more so its foundation is treason and murder - he betrayed his own people and family and murdered them. the Sex was just the sugar on top- Never trust a traitor.

And it would appear of course she didnt act alone the academy is likely involved or some branch of it as are others. I had a feeling Laura had survived o/

Slight improvement from before. Unlike the laughable first half, the second half of the show is turning out to be brilliant. Can't wait to see how well the show goes forward... or backward.

I would not say brilliant as they still ack much strategy. Also that castle is actually a palace. Is not as well fortified. More than that people that build the castle would know a way into the castle through some back door. Generally all castles had secret passages to the outside to evacuate the master of the castle and family if it was not longer defendable. At least medieval castles did.

I would not say likeable. Just more intelligent than his father and brothers. He saw the best path to follow was helping Theo... at least until the Alliance won.

I spent most of the episode on edge wondering if milza would be stupid enough to fall for a battle in the Black Forest, glad to know his arrogance won out. Can’t wait to see if milza will have an absolute face of devastation at Theo hand.

Now that Theo has become as a Lord and his allies recognizing his accomplishments, I suppose he will become a more active player in the war. Even so, Siluca begins to suspect something when Yana doesn't admit to her guilt in summoning the demon that caused the Great Hall Tragedy. At the same time, the Alliance is recognizing Theo as a verifiable threat and Mirza is getting frustrated that his authority gets subverted at every turn. The stakes get higher and I can't wait to see how this develops in future episodes.

Aishiela has been acting weird since last episode, it looks like she knows that witch, the way she's been guarding that witch, it looks like she's ready to kill her any moment the witch snitched, there's also no reaction when the witch charge at Siluca inside the cell or at least it wasn't shown

Aishiela says "goodbye" it's so weird that Siluca didn't think any of it when she's just standing right next to Aishiela when she spoke "goodbye"

I'm calling it, Aishiela is involved in that incident in episode 1

The mage academy is obviously the real bad guys, Milza's mage was egging him on to be more "evil" than he initially wanted to be (suggesting to kill the civilians) and Siluca's dad acts similar too. Hopefully a good number of them die and the organization is disbanded and loses all influence, F those faux-humble manipulative cowards lol

This guy is incompetent, it's unreasonable for him to have any power or backing from his home. Only a moron would turn against citizens that aren't in a full out revolution. Killing civilians always makes you look like the bad guy, turns more civilians in rebels, and stains your reputation with surrounding states.

Also, like fucking hell the guy with the machete BEHEADED the guy with the spear in one stroke. This is so damn ridiculous. Anyone who knows anything about combat knows there is ZERO chance he'd get within a reach close enough to behead a person with a spear. Especially when that person is a frontline lord who has more than reasonable knowledge about fighting.

This story is ridiculous from both a literary and especially realistic standpoint.

Some of their battle are so cringy and on the other hand Milza dosent really want to attack civillians and would rather kill the lord and end it quick and would ask their surrender like Theo would ask lords to surrender to lessen the blood but the lords of Altirk would rather die than surrender and put their civillians at risk the rules of warfare seems to be if you eliminate the lords the rest should surrender like Theo vs the lord in ep 1 or when Lassic surrendered when his mage got captured or when they killed the king of Sevis and everyone in Sevis just went fine Theo is the new lord now also Lassic asking to serve Theo is so creeping me out

Kinda relaxed episode but I liked it I got to learn 2 things at least Milza is an idiot that think to highly of him self and will most likely dies like the loser he is and then I learn that Ulrika Is a little bitch that sees people as slaves and like dirt her feet so I hope she also will die but I hope Ulrika will die a painful death rather than a fast one. Shes basically an animated female version kim jong un that looks down on it´s own people so she needs to die.

Theo gaining court rank once again. Strategically placed to take on Milza.

Milza refuses to see Theo as an actual opponent and that'll probably be his downfall to be honest.

The Black Witch being burnt and summoning the demon lord is interesting... It seemed that is exactly what the envoy from the Magic Academy wanted to happen..

Hopefully this episode was setting up for some real action next ep.

Aw man, starting to close in on the fateful showdown. It's remarkable to see how this vast contrast between Milza & Theo has unfolded. Milza is a ruler of unequaled ambition whose will to power governs his perspective. This is why he's becoming shortsighted when dealing with Theo, who he has deemed as entirely unworthy of wielding power. I get the feeling Milza's hubris as a conqueror will ultimately be his downfall.
