Episode 11, titled “The Old Country Bumpkin Rages,” aired on September 16, 2026. The episode picks up with Beryl’s team guiding the royal couple through tunnels filled with the Pope’s monsters. A mercenary named Gatoga shrugs off the death of Beryl’s partner as nothing unusual, which provokes Beryl into losing his composure for the first time this season.
Outside the tunnels, Allucia and Surena each face their own chimeras. Allucia struggles more than expected because she is using her graduation sword, which is not suited for fighting such creatures. Surena also takes injuries but manages to cut down her opponent.
The episode’s biggest moment comes when the masked fighter who helped Beryl is revealed to be Rose, a former student now known as the White Maiden. Beryl recognizes her instantly but chooses not to reveal her identity to the group, despite her ties to the church. The episode ends with Mewi practicing the techniques she learned from Beryl at the academy.
