Asta and Noelle return to the Black Bulls’ hideout only to get taken away by Mereoleona again. The place they were brought this time was the Vermillion estate. Waiting for them there was Captain Fuegoleon, Kirsch, Mimosa, and the sister who looked after the children at the church in Nean, Sister Theresa, who was also known as the former Magic Knight, the Crimson She-Leopard.
