To fight Cyborg, the kids must learn more about this monster, so they travel to Idea Center. While we learn how and when Lord Ero first shook hands with the monster Cyborg, we also learn why. This takes us back to Lord Ero’s childhood when he was merely a young, naive child and a prodigy. Lord Ero seems to be the real victim of the story as the kids learn about the manipulation he was subjected to for years. The kids are now on a mission to get Ero on their side along with the elders’ help. But the question is – will Ero join them?
