Mael then uses his special power and fails the efforts of his enemies. But Elizabeth, Diane, and the free king get cast with Sense Opener by Gowther. Three of them realize that an attack can result fatally against the archangel, who is overpowered. After that, King transforms into Chastiefol and defends himself with armor to attack Mael.
To counterattack, Gowther applies another clever trick to dodge and fool Mael by generating multiple replicas of King, in which one is real. Diana also makes efforts in expanding the potential of the king.
This indeed becomes a success at first, but Mael seems to take over in shattering the illusive powers of Gowther. At the last, when the latter once again tries to cast an attack, Oslo intervenes in between and gives up his life for the sake of King’s safety during the battle.
Seeing this Diane takes her special weapon to fail the spells of the Mael by spreading them to the ground.
