A lot of stuff from last episode is basically confirmed, although the spear is only a piece of the Goddess. It does make me wonder if the Goddess takes many forms beyond the spear? Since I doubt the threat is all gone now. The fact that she can kill the girls and use the girls to kill others is terrifying as hell. It is clear that Jill's feeling for Hadis have grown stronger. She mostly cares for as he is a genuine good guy and seeing what he becomes terrifies her more. After all, Gerald is a creep.
For Hadis & Rave's part of the story. This episode did an impressive job at showcasing the guilt that Rave feels for Hadis. What happened in the past between Rave and the Goddess has put a damper on Hadis's life. He probably never has felt the feel of love, and he just desires that. The thoughts of the Goddess taking away someone he holds dear terrifies him.
Now the interesting bit as Jill fights off against the goddess is that the goddess is surprised that Jill remembers the loop. This adds the big question why does Jill remember it since the Goddess triggered it. Also, what are the Goddess's goals. Gerald sought to kill Jill when she found out about the incest relationship with his sister. In the war against the Dragon Emperor, I would assume Jill needs to be on their side given how Gerald is determined to bring her back and make her his wife. Though in episode 1 it def seemed there was a will in the Goddess to kill Jill, which makes me wonder if she could sense she could be the magical shield that could protect Hadis? Now with the loop, it is clear the Goddess has achieved the worst-case scenario.
I will admit the romance angle, given the age gap, I am still not a fan of, even if there are clear reasons for it. Though the relationship between Jill, Hadis and Rave is actually interesting. Hadis obviously didn't want to go with the Goddess's wishes because that would be going against Rave's will given Hadis is the reincarnation of him, if I understand correctly. But doing that has caused Hadis so much suffering and obviously Rave feels guilty of that. It feels like Jill is the one that will bring happiness to both Rave and Hadis. I am curious to learn more of Jill's past or previous future.
