Episode 17 revolved around the most adorable character we have seen in the series so far. Yes, I am talking about infant Emilia we saw in Echidna’s dream world.
We all must have wondered what kind of person Emilia was before losing her memories and meeting Puck.
This episode clears all our doubts and confirms that she has always been kind, generous, and a little impulsive right from her childhood days.
In the last few minutes, Regulus Corneas, Sin Archbishop of Greed, appears before Emilia and her aunt. Is he the reason behind the freezing of the Elior Forest? We bring you the latest episode updates for this anime.
1. Episode 18 Preview and Speculations
The preview teases us by showing a mysterious lady standing behind Regulus. She has long platinum hair, and her eyebrows look somewhat similar to Echidna’s, but we know she isn’t Echidna from her deep blue eyes.
She might be someone close to Echidna or any other witch with whom we haven’t been introduced yet. She must have come here to open the seal guarded by the elves living in the forest.
Meanwhile, Ryuzu Shima and Ryuzu Belama are telling Subaru something regarding the liberation of the Sanctuary. We also get to see a short flashback of Beatrice and Ryuzu.
Coming back to the Elior Forest situation, Geuse pulls out a black box with an insignia craved on it. This episode will reveal the true identity of Geuse, thereby explaining us why his outfit looks similar to that of the Witch Cultists.
In the next scene, Emilia and Fortuna are seen crying in a different location, where Arch arrives to deliver them a message, and the preview ends.

3.Episode 17 Recap
Emilia arrives in Echidna’s dream world. She is evidently more confident and is gradually gaining back her lost memories by visualizing her childhood before her eyes.
We get to see infant Emilia being looked after her aunt Fortuna while her parents stay away due to work.
She was a playful and fun-loving little girl who liked to play around in the forest, and all her cute mischiefs are beautifully portrayed throughout the episode.
With the help of the lesser spirits, infant Emilia sneaks out of the house and discovers the seal that the elves have been guarding. On her way back, she runs into Geuse, who breaks down in tears on seeing her.
Later, Fortuna shows up and scolds Emilia for sneaking out like this. She even forbids Emilia to go near the seal, to which the little girl reluctantly agrees.
However, its certain from the episode that Fortuna is keeping many secrets from little Emilia.
Surprisingly, Regulus Corneas, Sin Archbishop of Greed, arrives before them, and Fortuna is well aware of the threats he poses. It seems we are finally heading towards unveiling the secrets of the Elior Forest.
