Once Crow reaches the location where Eyrith is to bloom, Raiga attempts to force the Horror out of the Makai Knight, but Eyrith forces Crow to express the resentment he bears towards Raiga for his kindness towards Mayuri. Raiga disarms Crow so they can settle things with their fists, refusing to give up on his friend, which forces Eyrith to leave Crow's body and manifest a human-like body for herself. She proceeds to the middle of the lake where she grows into a giant tree, and from there she creates portals to absorb multiple Horrors from across time and space across the world. With Mayuri unable to absorb Eyrith until the bulb is destroyed, Raiga is forced to climb to the top of the tree on foot and confronts Eyrith upon reaching the top. Though she attempts to tempt Raiga into allowing her to bloom, she ends up restraining him after playing with him and is revealed to be the cause of his parents' disappearance. She offers to return them safely if Raiga allows her to bloom, but he angrily refuses and proceeds to fight Eyrith before she once more restrains him and drains the remaining seconds of the time limit from his armor. As Eyrith begins to bloom, which is sensed by a mysterious figure arriving in town, Mayuri and Crow find themselves facing the Horror's new line of defense: Raiga as the feral Lost Soul Beast Garo.
