After hearing The D's involvement to the happenings of his father, Aster duels him in hopes of avenging his father and to recover Destiny Hero - Plasma. Early in the duel, The D summons Plasma, quickly putting Aster in a corner. During the duel, he spites and belittles Aster while revealing the existence of the Light of Destruction. Although he is close to defeating The D by countering with Destiny Hero - Dark Angel, The D threatens Aster with his father's life: destroy Plasma and he'll never see his father again. At a standstill, Aster's father tells him to defeat The D and reveals that the avatar of the Light of Destruction is Sartorius. After defeating The D, Aster regains Destiny Hero Plasma and is then evacuated by Shepherd while The D is left on a flaming ship, resulting from Plasma's purification.
