Ep. 5: Lloyd uses speed magic and rescues Kureha from demons stealing her monster control powers.

Lloyd casts a spell to increase their running speed. Lord Michelle meets his accomplice Great General Grist, whose army is certain to conquer Ishtar using the powers of a kidnapped young woman. Lloyd's friends are confused how Lloyd can maintain their increased speed all day. Lloyd explains Merlin once dumped him in monster territory, forcing him to use magic constantly until he could maintain spells almost indefinitely. The party explain training like that is completely abnormal, but Lloyd misinterprets this to mean their training was much harder. Lloyd senses demons in an underground building using the same monster control magic from the farm. Using Earth Magic Silica collapses the ceiling on the demons. With the demons dead they rescue the kidnapped woman, a Beast-folk named Kureha capable of controlling monsters. She reveals the demons have been stealing her magic and storing it in magistones to lure monsters wherever they want them. Daggas confirms the attack on Ishtar must be the latest invasion attempt of the Magocracy. As they near Ishtar Lloyd senses monsters and a demon army approaching Ishtar. Lloyd has a sudden idea so he sends his friends onwards to warn Ishtar while he takes Kureha elsewhere to cause some chaos.
