Ep. 158: Ralph crosses the border while Asta destroys the Spade citadel Candelo and learns about the Dark Triad.

Ralph attempts to cross the border as the Spade army advances in the mechanized citadel Candelo, which drains magic from commoners. Asta, now capable of flying on his sword, arrives to find Spade Knights killing prisoners and confronts the commander, a devil vessel. Despite being poisoned, Asta neutralizes the attack with his sword and slices the citadel in half. The Black Bulls arrive, with Mimosa healing the prisoners and Noelle noting that Luck and Leopold attacked a nearby base. The freed prisoners disclose that the Dark Triad—Dante, Vanica, and Zenon Zogratis—rule the kingdom with devil possession and seek two Arcane Stage mages. The Triad dismiss the citadel's loss as trivial. Ralph finally crosses into the territory and collapses near Hage Church, where Sister Lily discovers him calling for Prince Yuno.
