In episode 8, Sakuna Memoire showed her precious memories to Terakomari and exposed her true intentions and the reasons behind them. She also disclosed her core implosion and all the crimes she had committed. Her memories reflect how lonely and desperate she is to find a family.

However, Terakomari’s kindness and acceptance changed Sakuna’s heart. Terakomari accepted Sakuna and forgave her even after all the crimes she committed. This acceptance led to the decision that she would no longer be used by Inverse Moon.

Odilon, one of the leaders of the Inverse Moon, was quite disappointed and angered after Sakuna decided to leave the Inverse Moon and go against him, which resulted in a fierce battle between them. Unfortunately, Sakuna lost, but in her final moments before losing consciousness, she made Terakomari drink her blood because she knew that whenever Terakomari drinks blood, it evokes her core implosion.

Eventually, Terakomari’s core implosion awakened, and she engaged in a battle with Odilon. Terakomari overpowered Odilon and emerged victorious in the Crimson Lord’s battle.
