Episode Title:
Voice of the Magicbane (Sheol Fear).
Episode Description:
Stiyl explains that the Amakusa Catholics will not kill Orsola until they can prove her to be a heretic. As Saiji leaves to free his comrades, Stiyl tells Tōma and Index to go home, since they have no further stake in this matter. Tōma, however, goes by himself to where Orsola is being held and tortured by Agnese, who reveals that her battle nuns deceived Necessarius to assist them. He is later joined by Stiyl, who reveals the crucifix necklace Tōma gave to Orsola means she is under protection of the Church of England, followed by Index and the Amakusa Catholics. While Tōma is put in charge in protecting Orsola, the others fend off the battle nuns, with Index utilizing Sheol Fear, the power to deafen and paralyze some of the battle nuns. However, Lucia brings another force of battle nuns, who willingly stab their ears to protect themselves from Sheol Fear.
