The X-Laws make short work of their fight with some of Hao’s weaker henchman. They start going for the kill once their opponents can no longer Oversoul, but Silva commands them to stop. Reluctantly, the X-Laws walk away with Lyserg.
Meanwhile, Hao tries to recruit Fudou. She refuses, and her teammates make a futile attempt to bind Hao before he summons his spirit to devour Fudou.
After the match, the boys are disheartened with Lyserg’s recent lift path. Ryu is devastated.
At the X-Law camp, Lyserg is anxious to be awarded his own noble angel. Marco informs him that as long as he remains confused, Jeanne-sama will withhold his angel. The group then walks away, leaving Lyserg to his thoughts. Soon, he runs after them, asking to fight with them. Marco denies the request, and tells him to keep Jeanne-sama safe. Marco then explains that in order to receive his angel, he must be willing to part with his spirit, Morphine.
Soon after, Lyserg sits quietly in thought. Suddenly, he jumps up and starts running. Jeanne-sama explains that if you desire something, you must also throw something away. As Lyserg runs, Morphine follows, but Lyserg doesn’t look back. Finally, she lets him go and scouts out Yoh and the boys.
Elsewhere, the X-Laws are engaged in battle with some of Hao’s boys. Lyserg runs in front without realizing that Morphine isn’t with him until it’s just about too late. Fortunately, their opponents are no match for the remaining X-Laws. When the battle draws to an end, Morphine flies up with Yoh and co. close behind. Lyserg strongly reprimands her for humiliating him. He then turns his back to her and Yoh and walks back to the X-Laws. He tosses his medium behind him as he walks away.
Jeanne-sama is quite pleased with Lyserg’s behavior and awards him the angel, Zeroel. Marco then reveals that both Yoh and Hao will be eliminated by the Gate of Babylon.
The signs are everywhere that something is about to happen…
