W poprzednim życiu Cida nie za wiele się działo (no, może poza rozbijaniem band delikwentów za pomocą łomu). Nigdy nie chciał być głównym bossem i wolał raczej operować z ukrycia. Po odrodzeniu zapewniono mu idealne warunki do spełnienia swojej zachcianki. Cid dla śmiechu rekrutuje ludzi do swojej organizacji i na poczekaniu zmyśla historię o złej sekcie, którą należy wyeliminować. Jednak okazuje się to prawdą, tylko on sam o tym nie wie.

Cid reinkaruje się i po pokonaniu bandy z wioski natrafia na brzydką kupę mięsa. Po jej odczarowaniu zamienia się w dziewczynę, której Kageno nadaje imię Alpha i z którą zaczyna organizację o nazwie Shadow Garden. Jak pamiętacie z poprzedniego odcinka, ma ona zajmować się zwalczaniem "fikcyjnej" sekty.

The princess is supposed to reject the background character’s confession, not accept it — since when did Cid become a rom-com protagonist?

The mistake those with power always make is believing that they are the ones in control.

Cid is not facing a minion but a would-be Knight of the Rounds. Normally, that is cause for concern, but an atomic bomb has no reason to fear the gnashing of a lowly pest.

While Iris seeks a bright mind to study an artifact, Cid visits a popular store. Meanwhile, in the dark corners of the city, someone commits murders in Shadow Garden’s name!

Cid gets a report from Nu about powerful cult members lurking in the Royal Capital. Too bad he’s too distracted about the upcoming fencing tournament to notice.

Cid sacrificed his life to save Rose. At least, that’s what everyone thinks. Unbeknownst to anyone else, Cid survived exactly as planned, and now his counterattack can begin.

When the students fight back, Shadow Garden joins the fray as their reinforcements. Amidst the chaos, Cid confronts the Gaunt Knight.

Cid heads to Lindwurm in response to a summons from Alpha, but he is not the only one traveling there; the annual Goddess’ Trial is quickly approaching.

The curtain rises on the Goddess’ Trial. When Cid is unwittingly called into the arena, he transforms into Shadow and faces none other than Aurora, the Witch of Calamity.

The door to the Sanctuary opens and Alpha strides through it, intending to expose the Cult’s grave secrets. Meanwhile, Cid also enters the Sanctuary and reunites with… Aurora?

Alpha faces off against an empowered Nelson in a vicious battle. Elsewhere, Cid and Aurora reach the Sanctuary's core, but a door only a hero can open blocks their path.

Cid’s victory is short-lived when Nelson counters with his new magic. Meanwhile, Alexia convinces Rose and Natsume to form an alliance to uncover the truth of their world.

Only the strongest warriors can advance in the prestigious Bushin Festival, but one contestant proves himself a feeble and mundane man with no talent. Why is he competing?

Princess Rose flees to the north of the Royal Capital. The Oriana Kingdom wants to handle it internally as a “purely domestic” matter.

Cid recollects piano lessons from his past life — what impact does this have on his present? Meanwhile, Epsilon’s performance sets the soundtrack for something else...

Cid and Claire receive an invitation to a tournament. At the festivities, Cid receives more attention than a background character desires.

Doem tries to make war with Midgar. Meanwhile, the match between Jimina and Iris begins.

Provoked by the fight between Shadow and Beatrix, Iris joins the fray. An intense battle progresses across the Royal Capital. Meanwhile, Rose runs into Alpha...

Cid and his sister Claire venture to the huge slum known as the “Lawless City.” There, Cid gets caught up in the commotion caused by the Red Moon.

The night the red moon rises, the Blood Queen Elisabeth makes her return.

The Mitsugoshi Company is doing great, all thanks to Gamma! However, the biggest crisis imaginable rears its ugly head.

With Cid missing and things getting hot, the Shadow Garden springs into action. At the Mitsugoshi Hot Springs Land that is!
