However, tensions begin to rise as doubts about the true identity of one of the heroes, the Saint of Blades, arise. The group splits up to investigate and gather information, with Adlet, the self-proclaimed strongest of the Braves, teaming up with the Princess Nashetania, while the others split off in pairs.

As Adlet and Nashetania explore the forest, they stumble upon a grove of blossoming cherry trees. Nashetania reveals that the trees were planted by her late mother and shares a bit of her backstory with Adlet. Meanwhile, the other pairs of heroes search for clues about the Saint of Blades, with some members becoming even more suspicious of each other.

Back at the grove, Adlet and Nashetania are ambushed by one of the demon's minions, a giant bug-like creature. The two put up a fierce fight, but are eventually overpowered. However, just as all seems lost, Fremy, a former enemy turned ally, appears to save the day.
