Main Summary
"There are those who have confronted the cause of the world's Catastrophe."

Based on the information obtained in the Azerlisia Mountains, while Momonga moves to deal with it, the party returns to E-Rantel, to witness the scene of the Kingdom's forces facing against each other.

Just as the two forces were about to collide, the first prince, Barbro, suddenly vanishes.

――It was just the beginning of the tragedy.

Episode 1: Dissolution
Just as Barbro was about to order his troops to advance against the Royal Army led by King Ramposa III――he vanishes completely. Ramposa III is in disbelief of what just happened as his son was just standing in front of him only a few minutes ago declaring his intent to retake the city for the Kingdom. However all that is left of his son is a stain of blood on the ground. The implications cause Ramposa to crumble at what befallen his son. His grief is brief and he barely manages to utter Barbro's name when he too vanishes from the spot, leaving only a bloodstain behind.

All around their the soldiers of the Kingdom are confused at what just happened. Both their lords have vanished leaving them leaderless. Their concern for their lords soon becomes secondary when something begins to attack the soldiers in the field. One by one groups of soldiers are being targeted by an unseen enemy, leaving lots of blood and yet no bodies. Count Lytton with his guards try to understand the situation. They soon discover the attacker in the sky. The count trembling with fear hastily orders his archers to attack. Volleys of arrows are soon shot into the air but they prove useless and Lytton becomes the attacker's latest victim.
