Summary[]
Gara using Murasame Blade Majinken
Yoko is happy that Lucien is back to normal. Outside of the castle, Gara realizes that Kevidubu had lost and as this spell was indeed Venom, it means Dark Schneider is back. Gara tells his men that Dark Schneider led them fifteen years ago into conquering the world. His men wonder why is he now against them as he seemingly protects the Kingdom of Meta-llicana. Gara tells them they need to learn why, but if he is indeed their enemy, it will be the greatest enemy they would ever face. Guards from the kingdom finds Gara and his men, but Gara easily kills them.
As the kingdom has been surrounded by dark clouds for days, the ministers asks Geo is right about them trying to resurrect the demon god. Geo explains that once Anthrasax almost wiped out humanity and today Anthrasax is sealed by four seals. If the first seal is broken, the demon god will awaken from statis and create dark clouds on the horizon. The seals are guarded by the four royal families, and the first seal has been guarded by the Judas family for generations. Its clear that the first seal is now broken and humanity may head towards annihilation. One of the ministers is sure that Kall-Su must be behind this. Yoko asks her father what kind of person Kall-Su is. Geo explains he is an evil sorcerer and one of Dark Schneider's close friends, as well as one of his four senior disciples. Fifteen years ago, he fought alongside Dark Schneider and its said that his power may now be even greater than Dark Schneider's.
Kall-Su visits Abigail and asks him how is their god. Abigail notes that the god's heartbeat is strong and that's a sign of Anthrasax's return. Abigail notes that they will be attacking Meta-llicana tomorrow, who are guarding the second seal. Later, they will conquer the two other kingdoms and break all seals. Abigail can't wait to see Anthrasax's tremendous power awaken once again.
The ministers want Yoko to release Dark Schneider once again, as the army that conquered Judas will be coming soon. However, Yoko refuses as Lucien isn't a toy they can transform each time they want. Later, Lucien wants to play with Yoko, but she states she is busy and chases him away. Lucien decides to go do the laundry, and moments later, Yoko hears the kids outside bullying Lucien, so she runs out and chases them away. At night, while Lucien is sleeping, Yoko can't stop thinking about Lucien and Schneider and which one is better. She wonders that if Schneider is Lucien's true form, the who is Lucien, the one she grew up with.
Sheila thinking of Dark Schneider
Meanwhile, Sheila Metallicana thinks of the future and how her kingdom can't rest, knowing that the Dark Rebel Armies will be coming. She also thinks of Dark Schneider, who appeared naked, twice, and how arrogant, wild and free he is. While blushing, he notes that he is Yoko's personal sorcerer and is just for her.
Gara kidnapping Yoko
Three guards are discussing about the situation and that there are armies of demi-humans on the kingdom's borders. They wonder what will happen. Gara appears and tells them the kingdom will fall and in an instant, his ninjas appear and silently kill the guards. Gara goes to Yoko's room, who asks him who he is. Gara tries to introduce himself, but Yoko attacks him and kicks him between the legs. Gara notes that she has a strong kick and in an instant gets behind her and captures her. He reveals he is one of the four Divine Kings and that she is the Great Priest, Geo's daughter. Gara then ties Yoko and asks her where is the reincarnation of Dark Schneider, but Yoko tries to act she doesn't know anything. Gara notes that Venom is an original Dark Schneider spell and that golems can be controlled only by those who summoned them, which would mean Dark Schneider came back to life, however, Gara isn't aware why would Schneider protect this kingdom. Lucien wakes up, wondering what is going on, but Yoko tells him to go back to sleep. As Yoko isn't telling Gara anything, he decides to play with her and starts lifting her clothes. Yoko yells and wants him to stop. Dark Schneider then takes control over Lucien's body and tells Gara to stop, since Yoko is his woman and if he touches her again, he will kill him. Gara recognizes Schneider's voice, but is still surprised. Schneider explains that since the seal has been broken two times, its more easy for him to break it and while Lucien is sleeping, he can take control, and in time, he may gain full control. Geo arrives, and seeing them, Gara grabs Yoko and calls a wyvern. As he flies away, he tells Geo that if he wants his daughter back, they should bring Dark Schneider. Gara then takes Yoko to his fortress.
Geo explains the situation to the king of Meta-llicana and the ministers. The ministers states that since Yoko is gone, it will be hard to find another virgin maiden who also knows magic. Sheila then reveals she had been learning magic from Geo for a while. Sheila is ready to take Yoko's place and break Schneider's seal with a kiss. The king is against it as in the royal family, a kiss is a sign of marriage. Sheila states she can't just do nothing, knowing she can help and that Yoko has been working hard to protect the kingdom. The king is still against it, but Geo orders the men to take the king to his bedroom to calm down. One if the ministers states there is a risk that once they unseal Dark Schneider, he may join Kall-Su, but another mentions that by kidnapping Yoko, Gara made himself an enemy to Dark Schneider. Geo states that Schneider had changed, since living for fourteen years as Lucien, made his personality intertwined with Lucien's.
Sheila slapping Dark Schneider
Yoko then performs the spell and kisses Lucien, breaking the seal and summoning Dark Schneider. However, Dark Schneider is calm and silent. He is a bit disappointed and confused, that he let a woman he doesn't know kiss him. Geo tells him that Gara kidnapped Yoko, but Schneider already knows. Geo then asks him to save her and bring her back. The ministers also asks him to do it and also defeat the Divine Kings and stop them from resurrecting the demon god. Schneider wonders if he should do it, as with Yoko gone, there is no one to boss him around. Sheila states that Schneider said he loves Yoko, but Schneider acts like he doesn't know anything about that. Schneider lifts Sheila, stating that he can have any woman, being Yoko or Sheila, it doesn't matter. Sheila asks him what will happen with Yoko, but Schneider states he doesn't care, which causes Sheila to slap him, stating she is disappointed.
At the same time, at Gara's fortress, Gara asks Yoko on how to break Dark Schneider's seal or he will get to have fun with her. However, Yoko refuses to tell him anything.
