Description

Where You Point Your Strength Ren recalls when his party was wiped out by the Tortoise, with his knowledge from the video game he played in his old world proving insufficient. After running away with Myne, she betrays him and steals his equipment. This event, the townspeople chastising him for disappearing during the Tortoise's attack, and the otherworldly assailants trying to kill him spiral Ren into further madness, causing him to unlock his Curse series, and take on his bandit identity. In the present, Naofumi takes over the battle from Motoyasu, where Ren reveals his Greed and Gluttony abilities, ranting about his desire to become the strongest. The rest of the party members arrive and Eclair decides to fight Ren head-on, with her superior sword skills in conjunction with his erratic behaviour eventually allowing her to win the fight. The otherworldly assailants return to attack everyone, but Motoyasu effortlessly kills them, revealing his power increase as a result of taking Naofumi's advice and Raphtalia destroys their souls to prevent them from reviving again. Eclair brings Ren back to his senses, saying she will help him find a purpose to get stronger, as he remembers dying in his old life protecting some girls from a knife attack.
