While Lux looks for a way inside the giant, Lisha fights Hayes alone but is clearly outmatched. As Lux finds an entrance, he is confronted by Yoruka who intends to revive the Empire under Airi instead as Lux still refuses to reconsider her offer.

In exchange for Yoruka's cooperation with the Empire, her brother would be spared but while she was away, her brother was killed by the nobles of their kingdom as a peace offering when they decided to put the blame on him after they surrendered to the Empire. Yoruka kills the nobles in revenge but decides to honor her contract to the Empire believing it was her fate. Lux, however, compares her to Lisha who is trying her best despite her unwilling position as the Kingdom's princess. They continue to battle and Lux eventually wins by taking advantage of Yoruka's brief distraction when he mentioned her brother in a speech. Lux explains that he wished to change the country for the better but he failed. In order for him to accomplish this, he had to destroy the Empire first and rebuild it from the ground up thus making Yoruka understand that everything Lux had done was for the Empire. Celes defeats Saniya but the giant recovers and prepares to attack the Capital but Yoruka, who decided to serve Lux again, betrays Hayes and destroys the giant's controls at the last second. Infuriated, Hayes tries to destroy the Capital alone but is finally defeated by Lux. At the end of the festival, Lisha makes her speech and announces Lux as her knight to the public who give their approval.
