Before she was captured, Lina had given the statue to Gourry, and placed a protection spell on it so that they could not search for it through magical means. Zelgadiss has discovered that Lina does not have the item he wants, which he reveals is the Orihalcon statue.

Because she does not have her powers, Lina is captured by Zelgadiss and taken prisoner. During the battle, Lina and Gourry get separated. Shortly thereafter, they are attacked by Zelgadiss, Rodimus, and another henchmen Dilgear. Lina informs Gourry that since she is approaching 'that time of the month,' she will not be able to use her magic. The next day, Gourry and Lina continue traveling. Rezo offers to take the item from Lina so she will not be in danger from Zelgadiss, but Lina refuses, partly because she feels that the matter is her concern too, and partly because she is suspicious of whether or not it's the real Rezo that she is talking to.

Rezo explains that Zelgadiss wants the item that Lina has so he can resurrect the ma-ō Ruby Eye Shabranigdu. In the middle of the fight, Rezo the Red Priest appears and uses a Kugutsu spell to make Rodimus and the trolls leave quietly. The next night they are attacked by Rodimus, another of Zelgadiss' henchmen, and some trolls at an inn. When Lina refuses to sell it to him, Zelgadiss informs her that he will take it from her by force. Zelgadiss wants one of the items Lina stole from the Dragon Fangs, though he refuses to specify which item it is. Gourry mistakes her for a lost child, and insists on accompanying her on her journey to Atlas City.Īlong the way, they encounter a mysterious chimera named Zelgadiss Graywords, and his servant Zolf. Lina is rescued (though she did not need it) by a traveling swordsman, Gourry Gabriev. The next day, the remaining Dragon Fangs attack her, seeking revenge. The first episode begins with Lina Inverse attacking the Dragon Fangs bandit gang at their hideout, stealing the Orihalcon statue in the process. The first story arc is based on the plot of the first novel and volumes 1-3 of the manga, while the second is adapted from the third novel and volume 5 of the manga.

The first season's plot can be divided into two rough story arcs. Spoiler warning: Major plot or ending details may follow.
