Everyone regroups in Gallia’s royal palace to assess the situation: while the Ancient Dragon has stopped moving, it is not dead; and now, with only two void mages, the chances of defeating it is low. Old Osmond is called in to see if the dragon can be stopped, and he states that they may have a chance if all the nations band together, to which Henrietta, Tabitha, and Julio agree to. Saito awakens and, despite being depressed about losing Derflinger, resolves to keep fighting, causing Louise to fear for his safety.
