Bogus Skill "Fruitmaster" Episode 8, titled The Indomitable Torch Flame, saw Monica Bolst and Ayla team up to save Ival Bolst and others. After Ayla was held hostage, Monica saved her using a Flash Stone. Later, Monica collaborated with her father to forge a new sword for Light.

While it seemed like Light had already been defeated, he got back up and equipped the new sword. In addition, he also asked Ayla to toss him a new skill fruit. While she mistakenly threw it to Zamdo, the merchant force-fed it to Light, allowing him to attain his new Torch Flame skill. Light combined his Sword God and Torch Flame skills to defeat Zamdo.
