After Sara is kidnapped for a sinister ritual, her body is possessed by the resurrected Demon Lord! What’s more, the Demon Lord’s minions stand in the way of any who would strive to free her from her cruel fate... Wasting no time, Satou sets off to rescue her despite Arisa’s desperate pleas for him to stay, but even he will have to exercise extreme caution against the Demon Lord…
