| On the way home from a convenience store, Subaru Natsuki finds himself in another world at a marketplace. He converses with a fruit vendor, and is then attacked by three hoodlums in an alley. Subaru is saved by a half-elf girl, who after learning that Subaru is unfamiliar with the local history, geography, and language, introduces herself as Satella, and her companion, Puck; he decides to return the favor by retrieving her insignia that was stolen by a thief named Felt. Subaru and Satella travel to the loot house where Felt was going to sell the insignia only to find her dead, and shortly after entering they are also killed. Subaru's special ability " Return by Death" activates and he finds himself reset back at the moment he was speaking with the vendor. Unaware of his power and resurrection, Subaru decides to head out again to the loot house. This time he meets Felt and Rom, and negotiates with them for the insignia. Elsa, the person who killed Subaru in the first timeline, arrives and Subaru offers his cell phone whose camera feature is perceived to be more valuable than the money Elsa has, so Felt and Rom accept his offer. However, Elsa kills everybody again after Subaru states his intention to return the insignia to its original owner. Subaru respawns once again, this time greeting Satella in the street, but she becomes immediately offended because "Satella" is the name of the "Jealous Witch", which is taboo in this realm. | ||||||

Subaru attempts to prevent the insignia from being stolen, but fails and is killed again, this time by the hoodlums in the alley while chasing Felt. After respawning, Subaru finally realizes his "Return by Death" ability, and changes his approach by not meeting "Satella" and instead trying to buy the insignia from Felt before Elsa could negotiate. In the alley, he is saved from the hoodlums by Reinhard van Astrea, and Subaru asks him to tell "Satella" not to come to the loot house. As Subaru heads over to the loot house, he runs into Elsa, who notes his unusual behavior. Later, Subaru sees Felt and tells her what Rom said about the phone's worth in the previous timeline. Rom appraises the phone and confirms its value, but Felt refuses to sell him the insignia without first hearing Elsa's offer due to Subaru's suspicious behavior. Someone knocks at the door and Subaru is worried that it is Elsa, but he is surprised to see "Satella", whom he thought was told not to come to the house. | ||||||

Felt is ordered to flee the house, Rom is severely wounded, and "Satella" is getting exhausted while fighting Elsa. Reinhard then arrives and Elsa introduces herself as a bowel hunter. "Satella" heals Rom's wounds while Reinhard keeps Elsa distracted, using a van Astrea sword technique to defeat Elsa. However, Elsa survives and attacks "Satella", but Subaru intercepts her with Rom's club, thus taking the hit intended for "Satella". At Subaru's request as thanks for saving her, she reveals her real name is Emilia, just as he collapses, realizing that he had been slashed by Elsa, who escapes. Felt returns the insignia to Emilia in gratitude. Reinhard initially intends to let Felt go, but after seeing the insignia glittering in her hand, he changes his mind and takes Felt with him, claiming that he can't overlook her crime of stealing the insignia despite being off-duty. He also warns Emilia that the quiet life will soon come to an end, and that she might be summoned soon. | ||||||

He visits the local village with them to buy supplies where he plays with some children and a puppy which bites him on the hand. That night, Subaru asks Emilia to go on a date with him to the village and she agrees.

| Subaru is reintroduced to Rem and Ram. To figure out how he died, Subaru attempts to recreate the timeline by trying to trigger events that had happened in the previous timeline, which works only partially because of events that he did not experience in the previous timeline, such as being taught to read and write by Ram. During chores, Subaru and Ram's relationship deepens which seems to bother Rem. While out shopping, Rem tells Subaru that her dedication to her sister Ram is like a "fanatical demon" and then proceeds to ask Subaru what he thinks about demons. Since Rem and Ram are busy, Emilia teaches Subaru to read/write, and he again successfully asks her on a date to the village to see the children, puppy, and flower fields. That night, Subaru attempts to stay up, thinking about his actions in the new timeline, realizing he had fixed and missed certain events from the previous one. However, he dozes off and abruptly wakes up in the middle of the night feeling violently ill. He staggers through the mansion and as he struggles to walk down a hallway, he is attacked by an unseen assailant and viciously killed. | ||||||

Realizing he has four days before the attacker strikes again, he chooses the role of a guest in Roswaal's mansion. He asks Beatrice about magic that can weaken and kill, and she proposes two possible causes: a curse, which she considers unlikely, or draining of mana, which she thinks only she and Puck within the mansion can do. She also reveals that she healed him when he first arrived at the mansion. During a talk with Ram, Subaru tells her a folktale in which a blue demon sacrificed his own reputation to help his friend, a red demon. Ram comments that both demons were fools and Subaru and Ram disagree about the messages within the story. Subaru says that from their folktale books, he learned about the legends of the dragon and kingdom, and the story of the Jealous Witch, which Ram refuses to discuss. She also advises Subaru not to tell his demon story to Rem. On the fourth day, Subaru decides to leave and observe the mansion from a nearby cliff. At sunset, he is suddenly attacked by a heavy spiked ball and chain. He evades the first two impacts and grabs the chain of the assailant, who, to his shock, turns out to be Rem. | ||||||

He gets through the night safely, but the next morning he finds that Rem is dead, leaving Ram grief-stricken. Ram suspects Subaru and tries to attack him, but Beatrice protects him because of their contract. Subaru runs away to a cliff where Beatrice approaches him and informs him that the maids are incomplete with one missing, and offers to help him to escape the territory. Ram also arrives at the cliff, swearing to kill Subaru. Believing that his own cowardice has led to Rem's tragedy, and that he cares for the mansion’s inhabitants, Subaru jumps off the cliff to his death announcing that he will save them all. | ||||||

Puck analyzes Subaru's mana to determine his attribute and finds out that his is "shadow". Subaru learns from Beatrice the dreadful legend of the Jealous Witch, Satella, and deduces that Emilia's intentions in the first timeline were to be excluded from the royal election. During his training, Subaru struggles to utilize magic. Continuing with his work as a butler, he mentally and physically overexerts himself in his effort to gain the trust of the twin maids and falls asleep crying in Emilia's lap as she helps him let his emotions out. That night, Subaru wakes up and asks Beatrice about detecting curses, learning that curses must be activated through physical contact, and through that piece of information he joyfully deduces that the curse came from the village.

He first asks for Crusch's aid, but she has nothing to gain from saving her rival and has no intention of helping Subaru whom she feels is driven by hatred and madness. Next, he asks Priscilla and is prompted to lick her foot, unaware that it is a joke. Subaru complies and Priscilla viciously kicks him, scolding him for lacking loyalty and devotion to Emilia. He then passes Anastasia on the streets and engages in negotiation with her, but he ends up being tricked into giving her information about Crusch. Anastasia walks away letting Subaru know that understanding what the other party wants is the key to negotiation.

The next morning, the villagers find Subaru and he collapses. He wakes up in the mansion alongside Ram having been healed by Emilia. When Subaru tells Ram about Rem, she has no memory of her sister and when he tells Emilia, she likewise has no memory of her. Furious, Subaru decides to tell Emilia about his "Return by Death", but as he does so, everything goes dark and hands reach out from him, causing Emilia to die in his arms.

Through Rem's belief in him, Subaru overcomes his sorrow and despair. With his resolve renewed, he sets out to become a hero, wanting to start again from zero. | ||||||

Crusch is impressed by his skill in gathering support, and Wilhelm lets Subaru know that his wife Theresia, the Sword Saint, was killed by the White Whale and has devoted his life to defeating it. The next day, Subaru and Rem, riding a ground dragon called Patrasche, with the armies of the Crusch and Anastasia camps, head out to the Flugel tree to wait for the whale to appear.

| The armies become demoralized with the appearance of three whales. While running with Crusch and watching the armies battle two whales who attack them, Subaru notices the difference in fighting strength and the gouged left eye in all three whales. This leads him to conclude that two whales are doppelgangers of the third that is keeping its distance from the armies and that they need to defeat that one. To draw the whale to the ground, Rem launches Subaru on an ice shard towards the whale. Subaru taunts it, and then falls towards the ground, using his smell of the Witch to draw it towards him and the Flugel tree. Rem catches Subaru, and the armies use magic and explosives to cut through the base of the tree, falling it onto the passing whale. Immobilized by the tree, Wilhelm slashes away wildly at the whale, killing it and avenging Theresia's death, and causing the other two to vanish. With the whale defeated, Subaru turns his attention to his original objective of saving Emilia and the villagers from the Witch's Cult. In recognition of his courage, the Crusch and Anastasia camps provide some soldiers and knights for Subaru to destroy the cult that includes Wilhelm, Felix, and the Pearlbaton siblings, while the injured and weak (including Rem) travel back.

However, Petelgeuse's soul is still present in one of the Fingers who attacks, using Unseen Hands to kill some of the group and capture Subaru. Fortunately, the Finger is distracted by a tiny spirit and Wilhelm kills her and rescues Subaru.

When confronting the final finger, Emilia shows up and defeats him. After the battle, when La suddenly abandons Subaru, he panics and runs into the forest. Felix and Julius chase after him, but Subaru's body becomes possessed by Petelgeuse. Subaru fights back long enough to ask Felix and Julius to kill him. They reluctantly agree, and Julius cuts him down, as Emilia back in the village hears a noise in the distance. | ||||||

| With Subaru's death, he surprisingly resets back to the strategy meeting on the morning after the White Whale battle. Now aware that the cult can possess others, he formulates a new strategy to take out the fingers first before going after Petelgeuse himself. Wilhelm drops by the mansion to clear up the misunderstanding and to order the evacuation of the village. Then Subaru, wearing a cloak to mask his presence, arrives to tell Emilia that an attack is imminent and convince her to follow through with the evacuation. Knowing that there are spies among the merchants, Subaru hands out the plan of evacuation that is two hours behind schedule and the spy is apprehended. Subaru approaches Petelgeuse at his hideout offering to go through the ordeal to join the cult and become a new vessel. When Subaru is asked to show his Gospel, he shows the metia he took from the spy to commence the surprise attack. Subaru runs, with Petelgeuse and the remaining fingers in pursuit. Mimi and Tivey arrive to take out the fingers, and Subaru draws Petelgeuse towards the bottom of the cliff which he jumped off in a past timeline. Julius arrives and attacks Petelgeuse, helped by Subaru's ability to see the Unseen Hands. | ||||||

| Julius fights Petelgeuse utilizing spirit arts to see the Unseen Hands through Subaru's eyes. Petelgeuse attempts to once more gain control over Subaru's body. This time, however, Subaru speaks out his "Return by Death" to have Petelgeuse come in contact with the spirit of Satella, and, upon being rejected by the witch, Petelgeuse loses control over Subaru, flees back to his old body, and is finally killed. On returning to the main group, Subaru learns that explosives are stowed in the wagon carrying Emilia and the children. Otto offers to take Subaru and reach Emilia in time to save her. Petelgeuse makes a surprise return, his body held together by the Unseen Hands. Subaru sets Petelgeuse on fire using Julius' spirit Ia, then writes "the end" in his Gospel book after which, Petelgeuse finally dies for good. Reaching Emilia's wagon in time, Subaru finds the explosives under the floor, then carries them on Patrasche to the carcass of the White Whale at the base of the Flugel Tree, throwing them inside. He is rendered unconscious from the massive blast when the explosives detonate, but is shielded by his dragon. Hours later, Subaru awakens in Emilia's lap, and explains his feelings and reasons for wanting to save her even as she says she has done nothing for him. When he confesses his love for her, Emilia, crying tears of joy, thanks Subaru for saving her. | ||||||

| On the way home from a convenience store, Subaru Natsuki finds himself in another world at a marketplace. He converses with a fruit vendor, and is then attacked by three hoodlums in an alley. Subaru is saved by a half-elf girl, who after learning that Subaru is unfamiliar with the local history, geography, and language, introduces herself as Satella, and her companion, Puck; he decides to return the favor by retrieving her insignia that was stolen by a thief named Felt. Subaru and Satella travel to the loot house where Felt was going to sell the insignia only to find her dead, and shortly after entering they are also killed. Subaru's special ability " Return by Death" activates and he finds himself reset back at the moment he was speaking with the vendor. Unaware of his power and resurrection, Subaru decides to head out again to the loot house. This time he meets Felt and Rom, and negotiates with them for the insignia. Elsa, the person who killed Subaru in the first timeline, arrives and Subaru offers his cell phone whose camera feature is perceived to be more valuable than the money Elsa has, so Felt and Rom accept his offer. However, Elsa kills everybody again after Subaru states his intention to return the insignia to its original owner. Subaru respawns once again, this time greeting Satella in the street, but she becomes immediately offended because "Satella" is the name of the "Jealous Witch", which is taboo in this realm. | ||||||

| Seemingly irritated by being called the name of the "Jealous Witch", "Satella" leaves. Subaru attempts to prevent the insignia from being stolen, but fails and is killed again, this time by the hoodlums in the alley while chasing Felt. After respawning, Subaru finally realizes his "Return by Death" ability, and changes his approach by not meeting "Satella" and instead trying to buy the insignia from Felt before Elsa could negotiate. In the alley, he is saved from the hoodlums by Reinhard van Astrea, and Subaru asks him to tell "Satella" not to come to the loot house. As Subaru heads over to the loot house, he runs into Elsa, who notes his unusual behavior. Later, Subaru sees Felt and tells her what Rom said about the phone's worth in the previous timeline. Rom appraises the phone and confirms its value, but Felt refuses to sell him the insignia without first hearing Elsa's offer due to Subaru's suspicious behavior. Someone knocks at the door and Subaru is worried that it is Elsa, but he is surprised to see "Satella", whom he thought was told not to come to the house. | ||||||

Felt is ordered to flee the house, Rom is severely wounded, and "Satella" is getting exhausted while fighting Elsa. Reinhard then arrives and Elsa introduces herself as a bowel hunter. "Satella" heals Rom's wounds while Reinhard keeps Elsa distracted, using a van Astrea sword technique to defeat Elsa. However, Elsa survives and attacks "Satella", but Subaru intercepts her with Rom's club, thus taking the hit intended for "Satella". At Subaru's request as thanks for saving her, she reveals her real name is Emilia, just as he collapses, realizing that he had been slashed by Elsa, who escapes. Felt returns the insignia to Emilia in gratitude. Reinhard initially intends to let Felt go, but after seeing the insignia glittering in her hand, he changes his mind and takes Felt with him, claiming that he can't overlook her crime of stealing the insignia despite being off-duty. He also warns Emilia that the quiet life will soon come to an end, and that she might be summoned soon. | ||||||

He reunites with Emilia and Puck, and then meets Roswaal, who tells him that Emilia needs the insignia to be qualified as a candidate of the next monarch in the upcoming royal election. As a reward, Subaru asks to work at the mansion as a butler. Working alongside Ram and Rem, Subaru struggles with all of his duties during his first days on the job. He visits the local village with them to buy supplies where he plays with some children and a puppy which bites him on the hand. That night, Subaru asks Emilia to go on a date with him to the village and she agrees. However, when Subaru wakes up the next morning, he finds himself back at the first day of the mansion, waking up to see Ram and Rem greeting him with his hand healed, realizing that he must have died during that night. | ||||||

| Subaru is reintroduced to Rem and Ram. To figure out how he died, Subaru attempts to recreate the timeline by trying to trigger events that had happened in the previous timeline, which works only partially because of events that he did not experience in the previous timeline, such as being taught to read and write by Ram. During chores, Subaru and Ram's relationship deepens which seems to bother Rem. While out shopping, Rem tells Subaru that her dedication to her sister Ram is like a "fanatical demon" and then proceeds to ask Subaru what he thinks about demons. Since Rem and Ram are busy, Emilia teaches Subaru to read/write, and he again successfully asks her on a date to the village to see the children, puppy, and flower fields. That night, Subaru attempts to stay up, thinking about his actions in the new timeline, realizing he had fixed and missed certain events from the previous one. However, he dozes off and abruptly wakes up in the middle of the night feeling violently ill. He staggers through the mansion and as he struggles to walk down a hallway, he is attacked by an unseen assailant and viciously killed. | ||||||

| Subaru abruptly wakes in his room for the third time, with his injuries healed again. Realizing he has four days before the attacker strikes again, he chooses the role of a guest in Roswaal's mansion. He asks Beatrice about magic that can weaken and kill, and she proposes two possible causes: a curse, which she considers unlikely, or draining of mana, which she thinks only she and Puck within the mansion can do. She also reveals that she healed him when he first arrived at the mansion. During a talk with Ram, Subaru tells her a folktale in which a blue demon sacrificed his own reputation to help his friend, a red demon. Ram comments that both demons were fools and Subaru and Ram disagree about the messages within the story. Subaru says that from their folktale books, he learned about the legends of the dragon and kingdom, and the story of the Jealous Witch, which Ram refuses to discuss. She also advises Subaru not to tell his demon story to Rem. On the fourth day, Subaru decides to leave and observe the mansion from a nearby cliff. At sunset, he is suddenly attacked by a heavy spiked ball and chain. He evades the first two impacts and grabs the chain of the assailant, who, to his shock, turns out to be Rem. | ||||||

Subaru resets once again in the mansion, and fearfully meets Ram and Rem again. Subaru tries to tell Emilia about his "Return by Death", but just as he speaks, a black shadow with hands overwhelms him. Two days later, Beatrice also states that he has a strong smell of the witch about him, but Subaru asks her to guarantee his safety on the fourth night, to which she agrees. He gets through the night safely, but the next morning he finds that Rem is dead, leaving Ram grief-stricken. Ram suspects Subaru and tries to attack him, but Beatrice protects him because of their contract. Subaru runs away to a cliff where Beatrice approaches him and informs him that the maids are incomplete with one missing, and offers to help him to escape the territory. Ram also arrives at the cliff, swearing to kill Subaru. Believing that his own cowardice has led to Rem's tragedy, and that he cares for the mansion’s inhabitants, Subaru jumps off the cliff to his death announcing that he will save them all. | ||||||

While taking a break from work, Subaru asks Puck to teach him how to use magic to defeat the mysterious entity working behind the scenes, which he believes to be a shaman. Puck analyzes Subaru's mana to determine his attribute and finds out that his is "shadow". Subaru learns from Beatrice the dreadful legend of the Jealous Witch, Satella, and deduces that Emilia's intentions in the first timeline were to be excluded from the royal election. During his training, Subaru struggles to utilize magic. Continuing with his work as a butler, he mentally and physically overexerts himself in his effort to gain the trust of the twin maids and falls asleep crying in Emilia's lap as she helps him let his emotions out. That night, Subaru wakes up and asks Beatrice about detecting curses, learning that curses must be activated through physical contact, and through that piece of information he joyfully deduces that the curse came from the village. The next day, Subaru returns to work and gets the twins to agree to go with him to the village. | ||||||

Subaru is given a sword by the villagers and heads into the forest with Ram to kill the puppy controlling the Mabeasts, lift the curses on him, and find Rem, who had gone mad in her attempt to fight all the beasts. To his disappointment, Ram reveals to Subaru that she does not have a demon horn like Rem and is less powerful. Subaru draws the Mabeasts toward him by attempting to reveal the truth about his Return by Death. Subaru and Ram are chased and fall down a cliff where they are met by a pack of Mabeasts and a berserk Rem. Using information provided by Ram, Subaru puts a plan into motion to hit Rem's horn so that she will regain her senses. | ||||||

He then witnesses a redheaded young woman, Priscilla Bariell, being chased by the same three hoodlums who confronted him in previous timelines. He goes into the alley to save her but the hoodlums run away when Rom appears looking for Felt, whom Subaru says was taken away by Reinhard. Later, Emilia insists that Subaru does not accompany her to the castle where the candidates for the upcoming royal election will gather. However, the next day Subaru breaks his promise and accepts a ride to the castle in Priscilla's carriage as her apple servant. At the castle, Emilia is shocked to see Subaru with Priscilla who calls Subaru her manservant.

When Subaru wakes up, Emilia tells him to stay in the capital to recover, as she and Roswaal return to the mansion. When Subaru refuses, Emilia asks about his reasons on going so far to help her, but Subaru is unable to tell her about his ability nor what happened in the first timeline. Emilia then accuses Subaru of trying to help himself under the guise of helping her, believing herself to be unworthy of happiness because she is a half-elf. This results in Subaru losing his sanity, verbally attacking Emilia with his experiences in the other timelines and claiming that Emilia owes him far more than he ever owed her.

He first asks for Crusch's aid, but she has nothing to gain from saving her rival and has no intention of helping Subaru whom she feels is driven by hatred and madness. Next, he asks Priscilla and is prompted to lick her foot, unaware that it is a joke. Subaru complies and Priscilla viciously kicks him, scolding him for lacking loyalty and devotion to Emilia. He then passes Anastasia on the streets and engages in negotiation with her, but he ends up being tricked into giving her information about Crusch. Anastasia walks away letting Subaru know that understanding what the other party wants is the key to negotiation. Concluding that none of the other candidates are going to help, Subaru decides to head back to the mansion and village with Rem to evacuate everybody.

Otto pushes Subaru off the wagon and he almost dies. Later, Subaru encounters Otto's wagon and is taken the rest of the way alone by the ground dragon. The next morning, the villagers find Subaru and he collapses. He wakes up in the mansion alongside Ram having been healed by Emilia. When Subaru tells Ram about Rem, she has no memory of her sister and when he tells Emilia, she likewise has no memory of her. Furious, Subaru decides to tell Emilia about his "Return by Death", but as he does so, everything goes dark and hands reach out from him, causing Emilia to die in his arms. Beatrice enters and instead of killing Subaru as he expected, she teleports him and Emilia out of the mansion.

Through Rem's belief in him, Subaru overcomes his sorrow and despair. With his resolve renewed, he sets out to become a hero, wanting to start again from zero. | ||||||

Knowing when the White Whale will strike from the previous timeline, Subaru offers Crusch's camp an alliance to battle the White Whale in exchange for shared mining rights of magic stones in Roswaal's domain. She agrees when Subaru uses his cell phone to show the time and location of the attack and offers to draw the whale towards himself. Anastasia's camp also agrees to join the campaign, viewing the whale's presence as detrimental to her interests as well. Crusch is impressed by his skill in gathering support, and Wilhelm lets Subaru know that his wife Theresia, the Sword Saint, was killed by the White Whale and has devoted his life to defeating it. The next day, Subaru and Rem, riding a ground dragon called Patrasche, with the armies of the Crusch and Anastasia camps, head out to the Flugel tree to wait for the whale to appear.

The armies begin to lose soldiers and Subaru yells out his "Return by Death" to draw the whale towards him and away from the injured soldiers.

| The armies become demoralized with the appearance of three whales. While running with Crusch and watching the armies battle two whales who attack them, Subaru notices the difference in fighting strength and the gouged left eye in all three whales. This leads him to conclude that two whales are doppelgangers of the third that is keeping its distance from the armies and that they need to defeat that one. To draw the whale to the ground, Rem launches Subaru on an ice shard towards the whale. Subaru taunts it, and then falls towards the ground, using his smell of the Witch to draw it towards him and the Flugel tree. Rem catches Subaru, and the armies use magic and explosives to cut through the base of the tree, falling it onto the passing whale. Immobilized by the tree, Wilhelm slashes away wildly at the whale, killing it and avenging Theresia's death, and causing the other two to vanish. With the whale defeated, Subaru turns his attention to his original objective of saving Emilia and the villagers from the Witch's Cult. In recognition of his courage, the Crusch and Anastasia camps provide some soldiers and knights for Subaru to destroy the cult that includes Wilhelm, Felix, and the Pearlbaton siblings, while the injured and weak (including Rem) travel back.

| After trading insults with Julius, Subaru reconciles with him somewhat. Subaru's attack on the Witch's Cult begins by approaching Petelgeuse using his smell of the Witch which makes Petelgeuse believe that Subaru is the Archbishop of Pride. When Petelgeuse realizes that Subaru doesn't have the Gospel he should have received as an Archbishop, which he claims he defiled, Petelgeuse completely loses his composure. With his guard down, Mimi and Tivey launch a surprise attack to destroy the hideout and Wilhelm kills Petelgeuse while the rest of his band go after Petelgeuse's ten disciples, also known as the Fingers. However, Petelgeuse's soul is still present in one of the Fingers who attacks, using Unseen Hands to kill some of the group and capture Subaru. Fortunately, the Finger is distracted by a tiny spirit and Wilhelm kills her and rescues Subaru. Subaru is upset at his critical mistake which allowed soldiers to die, but Wilhelm tells him to keep fighting. As Otto and his merchant guild ride to evacuate people from the mansion and the village, Felix tells Subaru to make up with Julius. As Subaru approaches Julius, he finds himself suddenly alone on the road enveloped in a blue mist and Ram mysteriously appears on a cliff above holding a bright blue flower. | ||||||

| Subaru is enveloped in a blue mist and attacked by plants, but is saved from the illusion by the same tiny spirit called La that Julius had set onto Subaru to protect him. After Julius frees the rest of the soldiers and merchants from the enchantment, Subaru is attacked by Ram who thinks that he abandoned Emilia. When the misunderstanding is cleared up, Subaru tries to begin the evacuation of the villagers. They mistrust him and Emilia, but Ram intervenes and convinces them to leave. During the evacuation, Felix discovers a merchant is part of the Witch's Cult and he self-destructs, knocking out Subaru. When Subaru wakes up, he realizes that the village is under attack by the Witch's Cult and that the Archbishop of Sloth's power can be transferred to other Fingers who are among the merchants. When confronting the final finger, Emilia shows up and defeats him. After the battle, when La suddenly abandons Subaru, he panics and runs into the forest. Felix and Julius chase after him, but Subaru's body becomes possessed by Petelgeuse. Subaru fights back long enough to ask Felix and Julius to kill him. They reluctantly agree, and Julius cuts him down, as Emilia back in the village hears a noise in the distance. | ||||||

| With Subaru's death, he surprisingly resets back to the strategy meeting on the morning after the White Whale battle. Now aware that the cult can possess others, he formulates a new strategy to take out the fingers first before going after Petelgeuse himself. Wilhelm drops by the mansion to clear up the misunderstanding and to order the evacuation of the village. Then Subaru, wearing a cloak to mask his presence, arrives to tell Emilia that an attack is imminent and convince her to follow through with the evacuation. Knowing that there are spies among the merchants, Subaru hands out the plan of evacuation that is two hours behind schedule and the spy is apprehended. Subaru approaches Petelgeuse at his hideout offering to go through the ordeal to join the cult and become a new vessel. When Subaru is asked to show his Gospel, he shows the metia he took from the spy to commence the surprise attack. Subaru runs, with Petelgeuse and the remaining fingers in pursuit. Mimi and Tivey arrive to take out the fingers, and Subaru draws Petelgeuse towards the bottom of the cliff which he jumped off in a past timeline. Julius arrives and attacks Petelgeuse, helped by Subaru's ability to see the Unseen Hands. | ||||||

| Julius fights Petelgeuse utilizing spirit arts to see the Unseen Hands through Subaru's eyes. Petelgeuse attempts to once more gain control over Subaru's body. This time, however, Subaru speaks out his "Return by Death" to have Petelgeuse come in contact with the spirit of Satella, and, upon being rejected by the witch, Petelgeuse loses control over Subaru, flees back to his old body, and is finally killed. On returning to the main group, Subaru learns that explosives are stowed in the wagon carrying Emilia and the children. Otto offers to take Subaru and reach Emilia in time to save her. Petelgeuse makes a surprise return, his body held together by the Unseen Hands. Subaru sets Petelgeuse on fire using Julius' spirit Ia, then writes "the end" in his Gospel book after which, Petelgeuse finally dies for good. Reaching Emilia's wagon in time, Subaru finds the explosives under the floor, then carries them on Patrasche to the carcass of the White Whale at the base of the Flugel Tree, throwing them inside. He is rendered unconscious from the massive blast when the explosives detonate, but is shielded by his dragon. Hours later, Subaru awakens in Emilia's lap, and explains his feelings and reasons for wanting to save her even as she says she has done nothing for him. When he confesses his love for her, Emilia, crying tears of joy, thanks Subaru for saving her. | ||||||
