Danish landowner Ketil instructs his slave Einar to work with Thorfinn to clear a vast forest. Einar is surprised and pleased to learn he can purchase his own freedom if the value of the harvest taken from the land he cultivates exceeds his own. However, Thorfinn's express remains as dark as ever.

Rumors spread to Ketil's farm of a slave from a nearby home who slew his owner and escaped. Meanwhile, Arnheid begins tending to the old master.

Sho finally arrived at Seasoning Cultural Tower and was greeted by Shimazaki, one of the Ultimate 5. Ritsu faces off with Shimazaki and urges Sho to go ahead. However, Shimazaki is able to teleport and he gets ahead of him. Meanwhile, Mob has woken up and is heading to the tower and is also approached by one of the Ultimate 5, Minegishi. Mob has a difficult time dealing with Minegishi, who controls plants, but then someone rather unexpected comes to his aid.
