Asta and the others arrive at the dungeon where the children were being held. Seeing that Marie was hurt by the enemy, Gauche loses his mind. Asta is enraged at the fact that the children had their magic stolen, and he and Gauche go after Baro and Neige.

After defeating Sally and Baro, Asta and Gauche suddenly end up having to face Licht, the leader of the Eye of the Midnight Sun. Licht's attacks are too fast for Asta to see, and he gets injured.
