54 The Eighth Angel

Everybody watches Marco and Lyserg defeating a team composed of some minor, black-suited Hao followers. Marco intends to execute them after his victory, but Silva stops him despite him not being allowed to do so. Meanwhile, Hao offers Fudou a place in his group. When her two friends interfere in the conversation, Hao has two of his followers kill them, infuriating Fudou, who ends up killed as well, with her soul being eaten by the Spirit of Fire in the process. Later, Yoh and his friends discuss Lyserg's cold attitudes. Lyserg desperately wishes to be bestowed with an angel by Jeanne like his fellow X-Laws members, but Marco suggests his heart is still in doubt and that he will have to let go of Morphine. He then departs with three other X-Laws to face their previous opponenets once again. Lyserg is ordered to stay behind but later decides to go fight as well. Morphine follows him, but eventually stops and goes ask Yoh and the others for help. The X-Laws are about to face the three black suited men, but Lyserg shows up and tries to attack them, only to find out Moprhine is missing. Marco and the others take Hao's men out and Yoh's group arrive. Lyserg reprehends Morphine for her disappearing and leaves with the X-Laws, disappointing everyone again. As he walks away, he disposes of his pendulum and Morphine leaves in tears. Soon after, Jeanne gives him his angel, Zelel, while the Gate of Babylon is almost finished.
