The series takes place in a fantasy school setting, centered around an ancient Dark Lord who awakens in the form of a 10 year-old child and meets a host of lovely heroines.
This time, the synopsis and scene previews for episode 10 have been released.
■Episode 10: “The Elf Hero”
The Third Assault Garden—the place where Riselia and Regina both grew up—has now become overrun with Voids. Arle, a hero coming from a thousand years in the past, makes her appearance in this same place.
Leonis and Riselia manage to hide away from the Voids for a moment after Riselia is injured in a Void assault, and here they encounter a ghost of the ruined city.
Operating in a separate group, Regina, Sakuya, and Elfine encounter Arle, and Sakuya crosses blades with her.
Leonis and Riselia are being guided by the ghost to the Crystalia official residence. In other words, they’re heading to the place where Riselia was born…

TV Anime The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy
■Synopsis
As the most powerful of the Dark Lords, Leonis sealed his body away to one day exact his revenge. However, when he is awakened after 1000 years of slumber, he finds that his body has reverted to that of a 10 year-old boy!
“How could this be?!” He wonders to himself, when a young woman discovers him.
“How’d you get stuck in here, little guy? Don’t worry, I’ll protect you,” the young woman says, trying to comfort the awakened Dark Lord.
This girl, Riselia, is a student at Excalibur Academy, and Leonis is astonished when he finds out how drastically his world has changed. Hearing about such things as the unknown and hostile Voids, the Seventh Assault Garden, and the absurdly powerful Excalibur, Leonis is totally lost in his new surroundings but ultimately enrolls in Excalibur Academy.
In a future world that has lost its connection to magic, the mightiest Dark Lord joins forces with beautiful heroines in this fantasy school story!
