Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Vol. 3 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Aura weighs the "mass" of an opponent's soul on her scales and enslaves anyone of lesser mana with her Servitude spell. Her lieutenant, the executioner Lügner, corners Fern and Stark and makes plain that demons use language itself as a weapon for deceiving humans. But Frieren is a master who has spent over a thousand years disguising her own power. The moment Aura drags her into a contest of the scales, Frieren's true mana overwhelmingly exceeds hers and the balance swings all the way. Cornered, Aura is ordered by her very own Servitude spell to sever her own head, and the demon of the guillotine dies by her own blade. No volume renders the epithet "the Slayer" colder.
