The chapter opens with a discussion between the two men about their plan to purify the souls of the captives. As they discuss the details of the plan, they realize that they have little time left before the mission is over. They agree that Erza was really behind the idea of the mission, but that it would also be a good opportunity to find out more about the book of E.N.D. The two men discuss their respective situations, and they agree that it was Erza who was behind the mission. They also agree that they had little choice in waiting for the day when the mission was to take place. They decide that they will go into the town of the prisoners and offer up their souls to the black wizard, who will walk among them.
