Eris decides to take on a goblin slaying quest and witnesses a boastful young mage named Cliff Grimoire getting into trouble. Eris saves him, but when he calls her ugly, she beats him up. Eris reluctantly agrees to form a party with Cliff when he asks but is furious when Cliff burns the goblins to ashes, leaving no evidence of the completion of the quest. They soon get lost in the forest. Witnessing assassins attacking a little girl and her guard Therese, Eris kills the assassins and claims to Therese she is Ruijerd the Superd. As they leave, one of the surviving assassins recognizes Cliff as Master Cliff and wonders why he is with a Temple Knight. Ruijerd interrogates the assassin before he dies and learns they are allies of the Pope, who supports co-existence between humans and demons, whereas the Temple Knights and their leader, the Archbishop, do not. As they return to town, Cliff asks Eris to marry him, claiming he must be more impressive than Rudeus, but when he sees Eris' face while she thinks about Rudeus, he realizes he stands no chance against her feelings for Rudeus and goes home depressed where it is revealed the dead assassins were actually his tutors. Eris returns to Rudeus and finds him upset after his fight with Paul. Cliff sits in his room, thinking about Rudeus. Note: This OVA takes place during episode 16 of the series, titled "Family Squabble," but follows Eris instead of Rudeus. | ||||||
