Picking up the events from the previous episode, The Witch and the Beast Episode 9 opens with Guideau's actual form emerging from the sealed coffin, while her female body loses consciousness. Matt Cugar feels an "awful chill" and notices the Demon Sword has stopped moving.

Ashaf tells Guideau not to use her right arm because he wants to retrieve the Demon Sword alive. When Helga second-guesses what Guideau's monstrous form can do against an all-powerful being such as Demonic Sword, Ashaf tells her that the Demon Sword's abilities are hardly unique.

The episode then shows a captivating battle between Guideau and the Demon Sword. Matt Cugat also joins the party and unleashes the power of his ice elemental.

Interestingly, he realizes that the elemental has become wary of Guideau more than the Demon Sword. Nevertheless, he manifests a barrage of icicles and ice-mist-like creatures to subjugate the Demon Sword Ashgan. However, the demonic being easily crushes his ice attacks.

During the battle, Guideau and others notice a rise in the Demon Sword's power. Ashaf speculates that since the sword has been sealed for a long time, it's yet to acquire its actual strength. Yet, the monstrous Guideau's left-arm punch manages to defeat the demonic visage.

A flashback scene reveals how a witch from Helga's clan sealed the Demon Sword Ashgan for killing countless people. She hoped that the blade would eternally suffer. Meanwhile, the Exuectioner leader tries to enter an area protected by the Paladins.

However, Guideau throws stones from afar to obliterate his limbs and ensures he never gets to his destination. Later, Matt Cugat apprehends the culprits, including her female subordinate. She asks Helga what to do with the Executioners.

The witch replies that she has seen enough bloodshed. However, she wants Cugat to ensure that they suffer. As Matt Cugat leaves taking with him the culprits, Ashaf promises to protect Helga. He also hopes the girl will contribute with her power.

Ashaf also reveals that the Demon Sword is alive because Guideau only used her left arm instead of her right arm. While it's unconscious, the Order can fix the blade. The episode ends with the Demon Sword's spirit, Ashgan, thinking that he has truly been cursed by a witch.
