Ep. 25: Luke and companions reach Eldrant to confront Van after Asch departs alone.
Aired on March 20, 2009
Upon arriving at Eldrant, the group learns Asch left to fight Van independently. They encounter him destroying Oracle Knight replicas, triggering a trap that separates Luke and Asch from Tear, Jade, Anise, and Guy. The remaining members defeat Legretta and Sync while Luke confronts Asch. After Luke wins their duel, Asch gives him the key of Lorelei and stays behind to hold off the Oracle Knights, revealing himself as the true Luke Fon Fabre rather than Asch the Bloody. Asch succumbs to fatal injuries and dies after eliminating the replicas. Luke senses the death and informs the group. Natalia is devastated, but Jade urges her to rise. The team then proceeds to face Van for the final battle.
