第10話: 燃え盛る屋敷と吹雪の聖域の試練

10

As a result of the fight against the mabeast guiltylowe, the mansion is set ablaze. Subaru leaves to find Beatrice while Otto and Petra run to escape the burning mansion. Back in the graveyard, Emilia undergoes the third trial, where she is subjected to a series of visions and voices from potential futures. She finds herself alone in Echidna's head space, until Minerva appears (keeping her face and identity hidden), remarking that Echidna was too upset to see Emilia. During their conversation, Minerva briefly mentions Emilia's mother, but won't say anything more. Before she leaves, Emilia tells the witch the next time they see each other they'll all have a tea party together, including Echidna. Waking up, Emilia enters the now open grave of Echidna and undoes the magic spell powering the barrier. Leaving the graveyard again, she finds the Sanctuary covered in a blizzard. Back at the burning mansion, Garfiel reveals his knowledge of Elsa being a vampire, and despite her near invulnerability, can be killed. She reveals her backstory of living alone in cold until she found that slicing up people to be the only thing that would keep her warm. During the fight, Elsa is distracted as Frederica escapes with Meili, and ends up underneath Garfiel, biting each other on the neck. Garfiel finally ends things by crushing her under the rock pig's corpse. Meanwhile, in a snowless sanctuary, Puck and Ram continue their battle against Roswaal. During the fight he reveals that he intentionally put a spell on Emilia's contract with Puck before entering the Sanctuary to discourage her during the trials. Ram also reveals she loves Roswaal and wishes to save him, completely bewildering him. She manages to steal the Tome, happily throwing it into the fire, just as an enraged Roswaal shoots a fire blast directly at Ram. (Source: Wikipedia)
