Ep. 10: Toru's group infiltrates Soara while Duke Gavarni's son reveals his patricide and mind controls Akari.
Upon arriving in Iveco, Toru notices the absence of young girls and a shortage of magic fuel, which is being hoarded by Duke Gavarni to power the floating fortress Soara. Gavarni’s soldiers kidnap local girls for the fortress. Toru’s party sneaks aboard with Akari disguised as a girl, joined secretly by Vivi and Zuita. Meanwhile, the Council launches its own fortress, Stratus, prompting Konrad to warn Alberic to evacuate Vivi and Zuita before the Council attacks. Inside Soara, Toru and Chaika are ambushed; Fredrika is killed, and Akari is captured. The wizard Grad Lancia and Ricardo, Gavarni’s son who admits to killing his family, use mind control on Akari. Toru and Chaika encounter Layla, who claims to need help rescuing captives but traps them. Layda kidnaps Chaika, forcing Toru to fight the mind-controlled Akari.
