Upon interrogating Stoker, Ciel discovers that a larger batch of corpses is stored in another place of the ship, as they also awaken and attack the ship's crew and passengers. Amidst the chaos, the ship crashes into an iceberg and starts sinking.his own experiment.
While fighting Undertaker with the reaper's help, Sebastian is wounded by Undertaker's death scythe while protecting Ciel, and the reaper witnesses the moment when the two formed their contract, as well as Sebastian and Ciel's training until Ciel receives his title as Earl Phantomhive. Back in the present, Undertaker makes his escape as the ship is about to sink completely and Stoker falls to his death, with Ciel snatching Undertaker's funeral lockets in the confusion. Both Sebastian and Ciel barely escape the ship on a lifeboat, but they find themselves surrounded by the remaining corpses and knowing that they will attack the other survivors should they attempt to escape, Sebastian has no choice but to fight and destroy all of them by himself down to the last one of all to protect Ciel.
