The recently dropped preview teaser for the upcoming episode hasn’t mentioned anything about Rose, however, it is expected that Cid will look for her and discover what induced her to stab Perv Asshat.Cid will encounter a strange elf who looks eerily similar to Alpha. In the light novel, Beatrix is presumed to be Alpha’s aunt and Hero Olivier’s descendant. Golden Kinmeki will be up against Mundane Mann (Cid in disguise) in the next fight of the Bushin Festival Tournament, where he will eventually learn that he has heavily underestimated his opponent's potential.Annerose, who was mesmerized by Mundane’s recent performance, will be confronting him for some reason that will be unveiled in the upcoming episode.A brief recap of the previous episode of The Eminence in ShadowBlue Hair Waifu's@BlueHairWaifuAnnerose Nichtsehen (Source)* The Eminence in Shadow *17717Annerose Nichtsehen 🔥🔥😤(Source)* The Eminence in Shadow * https://t.co/WQHMGKFbOaWith the desire to “ride the big wave” by outshining his opponent in the Bushin Festival Tournament, Cid requested Gamma to alter his appearance. With his new disguise of Mundane Mann, Cid headed to the Bushin Festival Tournament, where he encountered Annerose Nichtsehen, a skilled swordsman hailing from the Velgata empire, who advised him to withdraw from the competition due to his frail demeanor.Later, Mundane was confronted by Quinton, who mocked him and even beat the living daylights out of him. Annerose stepped in and stopped Quinton. After meeting Cid, Rose told him that her father would introduce her to her fiance, Perv Asshat. The former agreed to believe in the latter’s pursuit of following her ideals.Namaryu (CEO of Tanmoshi)@NamaryuuThe funniest exchange of episode is no doubt the "Taking a dump. Yeah have fun!" segment followed by Cid obviously becoming Mundane Mann for a fight. What is hilarious is that if you think about it he returned quite fast. Suspicious if I say so myself.22The funniest exchange of episode is no doubt the "Taking a dump. Yeah have fun!" segment followed by Cid obviously becoming Mundane Mann for a fight.

The latter explained to the former how to determine a stronger opponent in the game. However, it was unusual for Kinmeki to see his prediction go wrong after Mundane beat Gonzales Machobre, a herculean opponent twice his size.Keenly observing the battle, Annerose saw through Mundane’s technique and was quite impressed. The other day, Skel relayed to Cid that Rose stabbed her fiance and ran away.
