2. Episode 3 Speculation

Beginning his fight with the final boss was Cid’s ultimate goal in the vampire tower, but his preemptive strike may have ended that battle before it began. Now there are essentially three possibilities for what Cid could do next.

The simplest is if the resurrection ritual is already underway to revive the vampire queen, in which case Cid would have to fight a being who was able to be revived even through an atomic attack.

If she hasn’t been revived, however, Cid could always complete the ritual himself, creating his own final boss to battle. Lastly, he could also decide to focus on eradicating the mob of vampires swarming through the Lawless City instead of facing one singular foe.

He wants to collect all the wealth because he plans to live for at least three hundred years, so he needs more money. Though he leaves all the treasure for later as his boss battle is coming up,

He plans to end the boss early as he has been doing the same things for a long time now, which is getting repetitive, but now changing the pace a bit won’t matter a lot.
