Recap of The Kingdoms of Ruin episode 3

The Kingdoms of Ruin episode 3 saw Adonis kill Eekhout and fight the Redia Empire soldiers after Doroka's death.

Elsewhere, Yuki wanted to use the magic suppression device, however, Director Theta informed them about the Human Cellular Dysfunction Disease that affected every human soldier who took part in the Witch Hunt. Hence, Theta rejected the use of the suppressor.

Nevertheless, Yuki used the suppressor to stop Adonis' magic. While Theta stopped it instantly, both she and Yuki were affected by the device. Soon after, a soldier bravely beheaded Adonis, following which the Empire celebrated.

However, the episode later saw Oz and Charmy from the National Intelligence Bureau realize that Adonis' body was fake. Right after, the anime saw Adonis open his eyes.

What to expect from The Kingdoms of Ruin episode 4?

The Kingdoms of Ruin episode 4 will most likely reveal how Adonis survived after being beheaded. Towards the end of the episode, National Intelligence Bureau's Charmy revealed that Adonis' body was fake.

However, the same wasn't said about his head. Thus, there is bound to be some magic involved in his survival.

Considering that the soldier who "killed" Adonis was a female character who went out of her way to attack Adonis by herself, there is a chance that she was a witch in disguise. One of the witches, possibly an acquaintance of Doroka, might have disguised as a Redia Empire soldier to mask Adonis' death and have him help in Chloe's revival.
