Marie rescues Lloyd from a terrible fate by stopping the fight between him and Allan, and reveals her true identity to Chrome. Marie and Chrome decide to execute her plan to stop the kingdom from going to war.

Lloyd somehow fails the test, sending those who are aware of his strengths scrambling to figure out what went wrong.

Marie faces off against the offender that took over the king's body to drive the kingdom towards war; Lloyd finds the courage to go against Marie's wishes to assist her.

Still oblivious to his strengths, Lloyd continues to support his friends any way he can. Seeing Riho grow depressed after meeting an old acquaintance, Lloyd devises a plan to cheer her up.

The magic contest begins as Selen faces Phyllo, Lloyd fights Mena, and Riho prepares to settle her old grudge with Rol.
