Subaru is shown several visions of events previously unknown to him during the second phase of the trial. When he feels as if heβs worn away to nearly nothing, the one to stir him is the one who loves him more than anyone elseβ¦ and is tougher on him than anyone else. When he awakens to see Echidna extending a hand to help him, he tells her heβll never accept it. Then the Witch of Envy appears, clad in a veil of darkness, and extends her hand to him as well. Subaru refuses again, screaming that heβll solve everything on his own without any of their help.
