Magna ends up teaming up with the vice-captain of the Coral Peacocks, Kirsch, also happens to be Mimosa's older brother and Sol from the Blue Rose Knights. Kirsch seems to just go on about how beautiful he is and Magna and Sol don't know how to deal with the biggest narcissist they've ever met. Meanwhile, Finral ends up on a team with Leopold and Hamon and Finral was getting fired up, thinking about having to fight his brother Langris soon...
And yet, why was I born so beautiful?
ولمَ وُلِدت جميلًا هكذا بين كلّ ذلك؟
Und wieso wurde ich
so wunderschön in sie hineingeboren?
¿Y por qué yo nací siendo tan hermoso?
¿Y por qué nací yo siendo tan hermoso?
Et pourquoi dois-je endurer la solitude
d’être né si éclatant parmi cette lie ?
Oh, perché sono dovuto comunque nascere
maledetto da questa inarrivabile bellezza?
E como eu nasci tão belo?
И почему мне довелось родиться 
столь прекрасным среди этого ужаса?!
