Lux recalls what he and Celes talked about yesterday where she also reveals that she taught and trained by Lux's maternal grandfather who she felt had died in prison because he spoke out against the Arcadia Empire's corruption which she had prompted and that she only wants Lux out of the school to protect him from harm.

Lux is inspecting his Bahamut Drag-Ride which has been modified by Lishe in preparation for the ruin investigation. As the investigation begins, Lux and the girls travel inside the ruins and are surprised to find a destroyed ecosystem and suggests that a war took place based on the destruction. The group decides to split up in order to cover more ground. Lux, Noct, and Airi's group discover a young girl covered in rubble. The group calls Krulcifer to check on the girl who awakens at her touch. Krulcifer sees that she is not human and the girl introduces herself as La Krushe, the supervisor of the ruins and she refers to Krulcifer as "Administrator". La Krushe explains that she had lost most of memories and data due to her long slumber and confirms that most of the ruins' functions have been suspended. She teaches Krulcifer how to reactivate the system and they meet up with the other members of the survey party. Lux is once again concerned when he sees that Philuffy appears tired. Meanwhile, the Queen of Atismata and the Four Great Nobles meet and discuss Ragreed's escape and plot to attack the kingdom. However, the army lacks man power due to an insufficient number of Drag-Rides so one of the nobles suggests using the students of the academy to make up for this but Celes' father opposes the idea. The noble also notes that Lux is the only one who could defeat the Ragnarok while admitting his plan to having the former prince work for them in the near future. Back in the ruins, Lux is carrying a tired Philuffy as they enter a room where the Abyss were being created.

Hayes explains that she planted a seed of Ragnarok inside Philuffy and that she is slowly turning into an Abyss as her body is being eaten from the inside. Hayes also reveals that Philuffy had been resisting her commands which explains her fever and headaches. She then offers Lux a deal in which she will command the Ragnarok to save Philuffy who will die in a few days in her current state but in exchange, Lux must open the entrance to the deepest part of the ruins using Krulcifer as they key but he is given a time limit of two days to accomplish this. Later, Lux meets with Relie who reveals that Philuffy supposedly died due to the inhumane experiments conducted on her five years ago but she awoke stronger than before but at a terrible price. Relie also reveals that her determination to explore the deepest areas of the ruins is because she hopes to find something that can cure Philuffy. The next day, Lux reminisces about his past again while his Bahamut undergoes maintenance. To his and Airi's shock, they are suddenly contacted by their older brother Fugil who explains that the only way to save Philuffy is to destroy the Ragnarok controlling her and Hayes' horn. Before returning to the ruins, Lux visits Philuffy who reveals that she knows the truth of her condition but states she is satisfied as both Lux and Relie have grown strong over the years. The group opens the entrance to ruins' deepest area with Krulcifer's help and La Krushe, who's memory has recovered, attacks them as Hayes appears with Philuffy under her control. Airi, who also possesses a horn, allows Philuffy to regain control of herself and breaks Hayes' horn in the process but the Ragnarok is revived. Despite their best efforts, the group is overwhelmed until Lux unleashes Bahamut's full power and defeats the Ragnarok. Fugil convinces Hayes to retreat as the ruins begins to collapse and La Krushe loses consciousness. As Lux recovers, he is assured by Philuffy that she can resist the horn and thanks him for saving her.

As Lux returns to the school, he met by Lisha who requests him to be her knight and that she would like to present him as such to the public when she makes her speech at the festival's end but Lux says that he will think about it. The next day, as Lux and Airi are talking alone, they are met by the aforementioned escapee who introduces herself as Yoruka Kirihime who calls Lux her master due to a contract she made with his father years ago and is willing to do whatever he says. Shocked by this, Lux has her wait until the festival ends so that he can speak with her properly. Later that night while Lux is bathing, Yoruka joins him causing him to scream in surprise and they are discovered by the Triad and an angry Lisha. After bathing and calming everyone down, Lux questions Yoruka about her intentions. She does not answer and instead asks Lux how long he intends to deceive everyone as he is more than capable of destroying the New Kingdom and reestablishing the Empire but Lux replies that he does not desire to. Yoruka is then attacked by the girls but she fights back with her own Divine Drag-Ride and eventually flees while Saniya, Ragreed and Hayes who freed Yoruka watch from afar. | ||

| Lisha is practicing her speech for the festival as Lux enters her room and they discuss Lisha's offer from the other day. Meanwhile, Hayes, Saniya and Yoruka are inside another ruin which they activate. Lux and Airi are then summoned by the nobles to discuss a plot by Ragreed to overthrow the New Kingdom which will take place after the Drag-Ride tournament. Lux is ordered to act as a decoy to lure out over one hundred Abyss that are hiding in uninhabited villages near the Kingdom with the promise of overlooking the Ries Island incident. They also order Lux to win the upcoming tournament and he agrees to do both though Airi is against this. Upon returning to the academy, Lux asks Lisha to once again modify his Wyvern Drag-Ride but he spots Yoruka. He finds her and they talk about her reasons for serving him even though the Empire is no more. She explains that it is due to a promise she made with her deceased younger brother and she makes clear her intention to destroy the New Kingdom and restore the Empire in order to fulfill her contract. When Lux still refuses to destroy the Kingdom, Yoruka declares him her enemy and leaves. During the tournament, Lux wins his match but Krulcifer notices that Lux is rushing his victory unlike his normal strategy. After the match, Lux asks Airi to relay a message to everyone should he not return for the group battle tournament. Later, Lisha's own match begins and things proceed smoothly until Yoruka manipulates Lisha's Drag-Ride and makes it attack the audience. Lisha is then imprisoned and her Drag-Ride is confiscated. Meanwhile, Lux discovers Saniya who unleashes the Abyss which he then lures to the Kingdom's soldiers who destroy them. Keeping her promise to Lux, Airi reveals the operation to the girls who decide to try and find Yoruka and rescue Lisha. As Lux is resting, the insurgents, led by Ragreed, attack and kill the remaining soldiers while the main force retreats. Back in the academy, the girls learn of the insurgents' attack and that they are advancing to the Capital. Lux engages Ragreed who reveals that a giant stone golem, piloted by Hayes, is approaching the Capital and Lux is forced to use Bahamut despite knowing that he can only use it for twelve minutes. | ||

| Lux continues to battle Ragreed who severs Bahamut's arm only to learn that it was actually a Wyvern disguised as Bahamut. Lux quickly defeats Ragreed and his men and heads for the Capital while making contact with Airi. Meanwhile, Lisha is visited by Saniya who derides her and has one of her soldiers strip Lisha down as she is curious to see the Empire's brand below her stomach but Lux arrives in time to stop them. He convinces a depressed and guilty Lisha to help him fight. Hayes orders the New Kingdom to surrender or die but is attacked and temporarily subdued by Lux, Lisha, Krulcifer and Philuffy. Lux asks the latter two to destroy the remaining Abyss and insurgents while he and Lisha destroys the giant. They are then met by Hayes in her own Divine Drag-Ride who splits the city in two with a single attack. Meanwhile, Celes confronts Saniya who was threatening the nobles. 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. Lux again questions her reasons for reviving the Empire and she finally tells him the full details: 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 decided 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 failed but in order for him to do this, he had to destroy the Empire thus making Yoruka understands that everything Lux had done was for the Empire. Celes defeats Saniya but the giant recovers and prepares to attack the Captial but Yoruka, who decided to serve Lux again and betrays Hayes, destroys the 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. During the party, Lux sees Fugil who is holding what appears to be Bahamut's Sword Device. Lux draws his own Sword Device but Fugil quietly walks away. Lux is then greeted by the girls, including Yoruka, who openly flirts with him and an angry Lisha demands that Lux declares which girl he loves. | ||
