The New Gate: Episode 7 Recap

The 8th episode of The New Gate, titled Bayuern, began with Shin and Tiera arriving at the city and saying goodbye to their travel companions. As they prepared to leave for Fanrid, Shin considered purchasing a carriage, as Tiera had been struggling with the discomfort of riding in one.

Therefore, they went to a close-by store and chose a carriage. The proprietor asked them to arrange for a horse to pull the carriage. Around the same time, Schnee contacted Shin and she took on the task of finding a horse. For the night, Shin and Tiera stayed in separate rooms at a nearby hotel.

The following day, Schnee arrived with a Gruefazio Jade, a sacred creature with a level of 650. However, this particular one had a horn, indicating that its level was even higher than the average. Despite its colossal size, the beast was able to shrink down to the size of a horse, making it suitable for their journey to Fanrid. With their carriage prepared, they were ready to depart.

Shin made adjustments to the carriage’s spare parts to reduce its wobbling. They set off for Fanrid and caught the attention of onlookers when they were seen with a sacred beast pulling their carriage. Upon arriving in Fanrid, they were welcomed by two individuals who happened to be Girart’s grandchildren. They led Shin to the location where Girart, his old companion, was waiting to meet him.

Furthermore, the episode may also mark the beginning of the conflict between Shin and Girart, which prompted Shin to embark on such a long journey. Will accepting such a risky task from an ex-teammate have a positive outcome?
