Recognizing the figure, Crow gives chase after the figure left while leaving a foreboding message that everything will begin soon. Raiga, after sending Mayuri home, approaches Jiiru and learns the mysterious man to be a Makai Knight of the Senate named Eiji Busujima. Raiga also learns that Busujima is the holder of the title Giru the Evil Bone Knight and is Crow's mentor. Though he refuses to accept Crow may have spying for Busujima, Raiga agrees that finding Busujima and sealing Eyrith is essential while asking for Mayuri's freedom once it is over. At the same, sensing Eyrith entering its final Horror host, Mayuri leaves Saezima Manor to find it. Eventually, after a confrontation with his mentor, Crow finds Raiga and tells him that Busujima needs Eyrith to bring back someone from the dead. While it would be impossible, Crow remembered the first time he met Mayuri while under Busujima and that his mentor mentioned it is possible she can also seal human souls. The two Makai Knights realize Mayuri is targeted by Busujima and attempt to find her. However, after knocking out the Ady Slate Horror Jienda, Busujima captures Mayuri and proceeds to extract Eyrith's seed from Jienda. Awakened as a result, the Makai Knight promising to allow the Horror to bloom, Eyrith agrees to grant Busujima's wish to bring back his lover as she uses a strain of the woman's hair to produce her body in her root. But Mayuri consciously opens her gate to enable Raiga and Crow to pinpoint her location with the contained Horror essence. However, leaving Mayuri with Eyrith, Busujima confronts Raiga and Crow to keep them from preventing the revival of his beloved Akari: The Makai Priestess that Raiga met as a child.
