2. Episode 20 Speculation
Group 2 has successfully captured their Stille. However, the test is not over yet as Frieren’s spell alerted other mages, and group 13 is set to steal their Stille. With Denken being distinct enough to be recognized by the invigilators, it might be difficult to avoid him.
Meanwhile, Fern and her party are also against group 8’s Werbal and Ehre. Despite Werbel being famous, he is not the strongest mage in their group. However, he uses underhanded methods to win. Ubel is also known for her killing streak. These two are up against each other, which will be interesting to watch.
3. Recap of episode 19
Frieren is lost in her thoughts as she stays awake to keep a lookout. She is reminded of the night before the big battle against the dragon. Every party is different from another. Meanwhile, Fern’s party has caught a Stille, but they must protect it from being stolen now.
Frieren’s party goes through everything they have observed about the Stille. Frieren learned a spell to catch birds that were practiced in ancient times. The range of the spell is 50 centimeters, so they have to get close to the Stille to capture them.
Frieren takes note of everyone’s powers and devices a plan to catch the Stille. The plan will involve getting into a fight with everyone, so they have to be careful. Fern’s party, group 4, plans to hide but runs out of water.
Group 4 goes out to get water but finds the riverbed dry. They get attacked by mages of group 8, Werbal’s party, trying to steal their Stille. However, both groups get distracted by the lake suddenly freezing. Lawine takes off inside the forest, and the other groups try to melt the lake.
Denken’s party, group 13, decides to wait and steal Frieren’s party’s Stille as they might have some grand plan if they pulled this stunt. Group 4 and 8 resume their fight and decide to scatter to escape. All the other parties scramble to find a Stille.
Many mages died at the hands of monsters, which is all a part of the test. Anyone who dies is unqualified to be a first-class mage. Denken despises this method and believes the mages are useless if they cannot touch other people’s hearts.
Frieren’s party is imbuing all the lakes with very little mana so that the Stille will have no choice but to go to a lake without any mana. The other parties will never sense the mana and cannot figure out their plan.
Frieren suppresses her mana and waits for Stille to appear. A Stille lands on her shoulder, and Frieren quickly catches it. Denken immediately senses Frieren’s spell, and his party decides to attack immediately.
Fern is also fighting Ehre of group 8 and realizes she is the strongest out of their party. Wirbel uses underhanded methods so Ubel, fighting against him, might die.
