Then, he introduces himself as Lyserg Diethel, and asks Ryu if he can become his ally. Ryu then tells Lyserg that he can come with him.

As Ryu meets with Yoh and the others in a motel, he introduces Lyserg to them. As Ren and Horohoro are not sure, Yoh immediately states that it's okay. As Ren and Horohoro still distrust him, Lyserg uses his Oversoul with is spirit, Morphine.

As Lyserg attacks Yoh, Yoh is able to dodge the attack and destroy Lyserg's medium. As Lyserg attacks Yoh again with all of his Furyoku, Yoh strikes back and defeates Lyserg.
