Titled The Poor Student and the Exchange Student, the episode will follow Veltol, Machina, and Takahashi as they adjust to their roles at Lu Xel Academy. During lunch in the school cafeteria, they will encounter Yamada Reynard-Hizuki, the girl seen in the previous episode’s opening. She faces harassment from Albert, a top student at the academy, which will likely draw Veltol’s group into her story, suggesting her importance in the upcoming Akihabara Arc.
Alongside these developments, Veltol will continue his search for the missing key to the treasure, which could hold the key to finding the Dark Peers. Additionally, Gram’s pursuit of Meldia could unveil crucial details about the treasure and the mysteries surrounding the Dark Peers.
In Demon Lord 2099 Episode 8, titled Cybermagic City Akihabara, the story began with a mysterious girl reflecting on a troubled past while gazing out of her classroom window. Meanwhile, Veltol successfully completed a video game marathon, earning praise from Machina. The pair discussed their next steps in locating the remaining Dark Peers using the Dark Peer Record, a book believed lost after the Great War. Takahashi’s hacking led them to a potential lead at Lu Xel Academy in Akihabara, where a 500-year-old treasure is said to be hidden. Takahashi arranged for Veltol and Machina to enroll as transfer students.
At Lu Xel Academy, Chairwoman Tratte Gotel revealed that the treasure could only be accessed with three keys, two of which are already in hand, while the third is still missing. The episode concluded with Veltol’s group starting their new school life, while Gram arrived in Akihabara in search of the ancient Meldia.
