Nina sends an 'update' letter to Al's mom. They are heading to Gallus's hometown, Perion. They save a monster called Ion from Zakums, who tells them that one of Zakteman's generals attacked them, took over the village and is forcing everyone to carve Zakteman's face at the village entrance. Gallus defeats all the Zakums in his anger but when he challenges the general, Gallus is shocked since the general is Godfried. Godfried who was his superior and supposed successor to Chief Kahn of the Perion village, but he left the village since he was not chosen. Godfried tells him that there can't be a world without war and that the strong will always rule the weal. When they fight, Godfried uses Stance, to block all the enemy moves and Rush to attack Gallus. Al blocks Godfried as he tries to save Gallus, but he is also thrown away. Gill saves him and everyone escapes with the help of Ion and Anji. Although Gill fights more, he also escapes when even his Dragon slasher doesn't work. Al and the group go searching for Kahn to get an idea as to how to defeat Godfried. He tells Gallus to go to the temple in the Ancient City ruins and get the holy weapon from the Legend of Gigal to increase his power. But this is a test for Gallus, to see if he wants only power too, just like Godfried.
