Anime Episode 12

"I Shall Cut Through the World's Evils!" (異世界の悪を我は斬る！) is the 12th episode of the "Skeleton Knight in Another World" Anime adaptation.

Summary
Arc notices the rings on the Hydra that emerged from the fortress, and Chiyome suggests a tactical retreat; however, before they can, the Hydra fires off a fireball straight at them. Fumaba watches this through the Hydra and relishes his victory over Arc's group.

A flashback shows Fumba being rejected by his clan for being weak as he sought superficial power. He would later gain an audience with Emperor Domitianus and Lord Chancellor Velmoas and would be granted some authority in his land in exchange for his loyalty.



Back in the present, Fumba sends the Hydra to Kaysehk to feed upon its inhabitants. Meanwhile, Arc and Chiyome are shown to be both alive as Arc's shield magic protected them. Ariane was also alive and was experiencing a calm rage revealing that although she was in a trance, she could hear everything that Fumbaa said about what happened to the captured Elves. Despite Ariane wanting to go after Fumba, Arc suggested that he hunt the Hydra heading for Kaysehk. Figuring Arc could do it alone, Chiyome and Ariane go by themselves to hunt Fumba.



In the Holy East Revlon Empire, Velmoas gives Emperor Domitianus an update concerning the destroyer of nations, and the Rings of Submission created from the analysis of Fumba's sorcery are nearly complete. The Hydra was closing in on Kaysehk, and the city guards raised an alarm as the head guard ordered preparations for an evacuation. Catching up to the Hydra, Arc uses his Wyvern Slash to catch its attention and follows up with a Shield Bash and Armor Lariot. An astonished Fumba witnesses this as it plays out, and then Arc dodges its flame breath with a Dimension Move, but one of the heads bites down on him. Despite the other heads about to fire off fireballs at the entrapped Arc, he defends himself with his magic, and in the process, the head that entrapped him is destroyed. Using his Judgement skill, Arc destroys three of the Hydra heads, only for them to regenerate.



Teleporting to a safe distance, Arc prepares to use a magic spell he's never used before and summons Ifrit to face off against the Hydra. Elsewhere, Ponta leads Ariane and Chiyome to Fumba's location, and he was amused by Ariane's presence, figuring she was there to become his. After a brief back and forth talk between Fumba and her, Fumba tries to possess Ariane again with some Imp, but she kills them before he can. Chiyome also scars his back, revealing he had a special spell crest seal on his back that helped him control his monsters. Fumba warns them that the Hydra is now out of his control and will kill everyone in the city. Ariane then assures Chiyome that everything will be alright because Arc is down there to fight against the Hydra and then proceeds to incinerate Fumba with her flame sword. Back to Arc's side, through the combined efforts of Arc and his summon, Ifrit, they destroy the Hydra.

Once Arc regroups with Ariane, Chiyome, and Ponta, a Whisper Bird sent by Danka arrives and conveys that Princess Yuriarna has met with one of the great Elven Elders Fangas. The meeting between them was to settle the matters between their respective kingdoms. Princes Sekt and Dakares are mentioned as conspirators with the Revlon Empire as well. Princess Yuriarna promises that if the Revlon Empire invaded the Elven lands, the Olav Kingdom would help defend them. Fangas agrees to these terms and shakes Yuriarna's hand on it.

Returning to Arc's group, they walk down a dirt path; Arc and the group talk about the co-existence between Humans and Elves. In the kingdom of Olav, Cetrion reports to Prince Sekts that Princess Yuriarna survived, and her negotiations with the Elves were a success. Considering the possibility of a double agent, Prince Sekts brushes this off and claims an alternate path to achieve their goal will be taken. In her room, Yuriarna believes that she died once before but was brought back to life to fulfill her angel's wishes. News of the deaths of the Hydra and Fumba reach Domitianus, who considers it no loss whatsoever and is curious to know who slew the Hydra.



Meanwhile, Arc unintentionally reveals his face to Chiyome and is then filled in on Arc's condition. It's decided that after they reach Lalatoya, Ariane will guide Arc to Lord Crown. Excited about that trip, Arc also asks to see Chiyome's hometown, and she sheepishly agrees.
