What to expect from episode 8?
After episode 7, fans of The Iceblade Sorcerer Shall Rule the World were left hanging and had been looking forward to witnessing the fight between the two childhood friends. The next episode will be titled, The Boy Who Became the World’s Strongest Sorcerer Inspires the Rose.
Based on the preview, the upcoming episode will focus on the match between childhood friends Amelia and Ariane. The emphasis will also be on Amelia's resolve to win the competition, despite suffering from immense stress.
It would be fascinating to observe how the dynamics between Ray and Amelia continue in episode 8. The upcoming episode also holds a surprise as an unexpected visitor will arrive during the game.
A quick recap of episode 7 of The Iceblade Sorcerer Shall Rule the World
Ray disguised himself as a girl to attend the Diom academy. While introducing himself to a little girl, he assisted in finding his sister. Ray learns afterward that the child is, in fact, Ariane's sister.
Ray's cover doesn't work in front of Ariane's keen eyes, and she catches him off guard by inquiring about his actual identity, to which Ray responds that he is truly an outsider and a student at Arnold Academy.
A stunning duel between Ray, alias Lily, and Ariane is shown in the episode. Ray becomes fully aware of Ariane's strength when she utilizes her strength to break Ray's blade and end the duel.
Ray also revealed that he is a friend of Amelia Rose, which shocked Ariane. He goes further and promises that Rose will get stronger and she will defeat Ariane. After interacting with Ariane, Ray returned to his own academy.
On his way back, he comes across a young girl who introduces herself as Maria Bradley, by which Ray understands that she is Rebacca's sister. Ray, still in the girl's disguise, once again introduces himself as Lily White, and it is evident that his charm as a girl has already flattered the young girl.
Rose, on the other hand, has trained hard to get stronger for the upcoming battle. The next day, Ray takes his friends to meet his master. All four of Ray's friends introduce themselves to his master Lydia.
Lydia takes Rose to a different room and tells her that Ray thinks she is holding something back from him. She also reveals that Ray is finally showing some emotions after going to the academy and making some friends.
The episode's main attraction point was the tournaments where both Rose and Ariana were shown flashing their powers in duals. They did their best and defeated their opponents in duels, qualifying to fight each other.
