Meanwhile, Asseylum regains consciousness, much to Slaine and Eddelrittuo's enjoyment. However, Slaine decides to keep news of Asseylum's recover secret from Lemrina, instead telling her that Asseylum's condition has worsened and that Lemrina cannot visit her anymore. Lemrina then reiterates her pledge of loyalty to Slaine, who feels uncomfortable having to lie to her. In addition, an amnesiac Asseylum recovers, she begins to recall memories about Inaho, much to Slaine's dismay. Finding his resolve, Slaine decides to continue with his plans. Back on Earth, the Deucalion is tasked with assaulting another Landing Castle. However, when the Deucalion crew begins to gain the upper hand, two more Martian Knights arrive as reinforcements. The Deucalion crew are then left in a situation they never had to consider before: being attacked by three Martian Knights simultaneously. Inaho realizes that this kind of organization could have only been possible under Slaine's direction.
