Frieren and Denken relive Macht's memories and see him come to Weiss. They see the deal he makes with the lord of Weiss and all of his time in the Northern Lands was spent in order to understand human emotions. Frieren spends two additional months analyzing Macht's memories in an effort to break down the Diagoldze spell to find a way to counter it. Another powerful demon from Macht's past, Solitär, comes to help break Macht out of his barrier around Weiss. Fern and Stark confront her, yet Frieren's teachings lead Fern to want to flee because Solitär is a powerful demon with no recorded past - meaning she most likely rarely leaves victims alive to tell of her. |
