Season 2

Two months after the all-student praxis, Will and the rest of the sixth-years face their written exams with their ascension to the tower on the line, but Edward's final question shocks everyone. Meanwhile in Urbus Rigarden, the new year's celebration, Terminalia, begins. Crowds watch as the Magia Vander lay out a new Great Barrier. Then, a disturbing magic circle appears in the night sky.

A horde of monsters from the deepest floors appears, transforming the festive capital into a hellish scene. Sensing that they're the targets, the Magia Vander stay within the tower. The city’s defenses fall before the mage slayer wielding High Dinoboros. Colette and the dwarves join Will, putting up a desperate resistance. The Headless activates a magic circle and a Devander appears before Will!

Rosty sacrifices himself to protect Will. The sight causes Will to lose himself, but Workner swoops in to save him. Edward and the other mages put their lives on the line, but the city’s defenses begin to collapse and enemies close in. As Will laments his lack of magic, Finn appears before him carrying a sword. Will possesses but a single spell. Finn asks Will its name and extends a sword to him.

Guided by Finn, Will awakens the power sleeping within him. Enveloped in a silvery light, he slashes through the monsters in the capital, targeting the Devander. He faces the mage-slayer-wielding monster alone. The other students are moved as they watch Will, someone they scorned, do battle. With their cheers at his back, Will presses the fight, but the Devander’s attack breaks his sword in two.
