Once Walpurgis begins, Clayman presents his false story of how Carrion encouraged Rimuru to become a Demon Lord and set up the Harvest Festival for him by influencing Falmouth to attack Tempest and used Veldora's revival as a way to evolve into a Demon Lord; the brainwashed Milim and Frey only helped punish Carrion for creating a Demon Lord without majority consent of the existing Demon Lords, and Clayman calls for them to destroy Rimuru in response to this. Rimuru calls him out on all the lies, revealing that Mjurran is still alive as a witness (which Clayman refuses to believe) and Tempest's forces have collected more than enough evidence tying Clayman into the manipulation of Falmuth. Head of the Demon Lord council, Guy Crimson, tells them to fight it out; he wants the matter resolved simply and quickly.

Beretta takes out Viola, the puppet that Clayman summoned, while Rimuru frees the fox demon (another member of the Five Fingers) that was under Clayman's control and puts it in Ranga's care. Clayman, in the meantime, finally snaps and loses his composure, transforming into his Crazed Clown form. When Clayman orders Milim to use her Stampede form to take out Rimuru and his allies, she turns on him and reveals that she was never brainwashed and was faking the whole time (the mind controlling neckless that Clayman used on her had no effect), much to Rimuru's surprise and Clayman's anger; Veldora and some of the Demon Lords suspected this earlier while Frey knew about this the whole time and was never on Clayman's side. His weakness and plots are exposed with his defeat by Shion and Carrion reveals himself to be alive and is disguised as one of Frey's attendants. Even after being defeated, Clayman refuses to reveal the name of his benefactor, but a flashback reveals that he is working for Yuuki. In utter despair at his own weakness, Clayman begs for power, undergoing a pseudo awakening.

Crazed and half awoke as a True Demon Lord, Clayman plans to kill Rimuru to keep his title. However, Rimuru simply pummels and devours Clayman instead; learning the Moderate Harlequin Alliance works for former Demon Lord Kazeream, whose body Leon killed to take his spot, but was reincarnated as Kagali. Thanks to Veldora and Milim's blunder, Demon Lord Roy Valentine is revealed to be a stand-in for true Demon Lord Luminous Valentine, who is the maid Rimuru had suspicions about earlier. This forces Luminous to remove her disguise and send Roy back to her domain to deal with the intruder lurking there while expressing annoyance at Veldora for blowing her cover. Carrion and Frey give up their seats as Demon Lords upon seeing they are too weak; while still ruling their lands, they now work for Milim, though she isn't happy with this. As the group is down to eight members, Guy suggests that Rimuru should pick their new name. Rimuru sees stars above the meeting and decides to call them the Eight Star Demons Lords - Octagram. In the Holy Empire, Laplace (the intruder that Luminous mentioned) is chased off by Hinata; having believed the Demon Lord's absence meant a lack of security. Roy returns early from Walpugus as Luminous felt unease, confronting him. Laplace learns that Clayman was killed and promptly tears out Roy's heart after hearing his dear friend insulted. The anguished clown can only laugh hysterically as he crushes the heart, killing Roy.
