In the episode titled Stubbornness and Determination, the story picks up from where it left off in the previous episode, with Alan and Noel seeing a Fenrir sitting in the middle of the forest. Alan refuses to kill it even though Noel insists. Later, Noel attempts to kill it but realizes her sword, isn't strong. Alan tells her to make the sword as he sees potential in its build.

Subsequently, Alan travels to Riese and Beatrice who tells him about how one of their kingdom's strongest generals was assassinated recently, which could be the doing of a demon. On the enemy's side, Horace orders Mylene to assassinate Riese and Noel.

In the second half of the episode, Horace is seen attacking Noel with his Fenrir as the elf struggles against him. Noel experiences a flashback of the time Vanessa was killed, and Horace shows interest in recruiting Noel to his side. However, his offer is rudely declined, after which his Fenrir attacks Noel with an intent to kill. Fortunately, Alan arrives in time and kills the Fenrir, forcing Horace to flee.

On Riese's side, Mylene's arrival is already expected, and she is captured quite easily. After capturing her, Noel decides to take charge of her. Meanwhile, Horace manages to escape but a mysterious demon suddenly appears and kills him. Later, this demon takes over the mission to assassinate Riese and Noel.
