	By the time the {{Hero 7}} and the party arrive to [[Hubble]], it has grown to become a powerful kingdom of wizards. With the help of a missive from the Wizz at the [[Grand Conjuratorium]], they are able to get an audience with King Hybris, who is in the middle of meeting with the [[Envoy]], who gives the young king a tome detailing the Incantation (マナスティス, ''Manastis''), a powerful and forbidden spell that was sealed away because it led to the fragmenting of the islands. Hybris becomes annoyed at the old wizard's attempts to stop him from reviving the Incantation and sends the {{Party 7}} back to the [[Conjuratorium]] to tell him to stop meddling.

	After heading back to the ~~Grand~~ [[Conjuratorium]], the Wizz tells the party to head back to [[Hubble]] to keep an eye on the king while he continues to work on his spell. Just as the group arrives back in town, they are confronted by the [[Envoy]] himself, who reveals himself to be a monster and a servant of the Demon King, who states that Hybris will become a god of destruction and the world will be torn apart, but soon the king himself will be consumed by his new power. The mage then challenges the party to a battle, but he is defeated shortly after. With his last words, the [[Envoy]] says that defeating him was pointless since it's too late to stop the king from reviving the Incantation before fading away.

	The party then enters the Inquisitory where Hybris is on the verge of completing the Incantation. Father Martyn is there as well, confronting the wizards who refuse to let him through. Martyn then forces himself in order to prevent the spell's completion. There in the Inquisitory's basement, the king and the chancellor are adding the finishing touches to the spell and Hybris states that soon Martyn will witness the birth of a power beyond both man and god. Hybris then reveals that he has been unable to forget the death of Lucia, but soon he will have enough power to protect anything that is dear to him. The Incantation works, but the king begins to emanate an aura of pure evil and he makes his way back to the castle.

	In his youth, Hybris was childhood friends with both Martyn and Lucia. However, their friendship was cut short when their kingdom was attacked by the neighboring [[Rucker]] Empire, resulting in the death of Lucia. A distraught Hybris vows to become powerful enough to avenge the death of Lucia and destroy the ~~Ruckers~~. The kingdom of Hubble was forced to become a vassal nation to the ~~Ruckers~~, but ten years later, Hybris was able to lead a revolution against the ~~Ruckers~~ with the help of magic, leaving them a shell of their former selves.

After the Incantation has been cast, Hybris begins to emanate an aura of pure evil—the dark power of the [[Orgodemir\|Demon King]].

	Back on the bridge leading to the castle, a delusional Hybris declares that he finally has the power to save Lucia. On the very same fateful place where Lucia lost her life all those years ago, Hybris becomes consumed and he transforms into a monstrous form. He then challenges the ~~party~~ to a hopeless battle, where they are swiftly defeated with the help of his new power. Luckily, the Wizz arrives just in time to revive the ~~party~~ with his magic and they rush to the throne room. Hybris casts a spell to destroy the throne room and revels in his newfound power. The Wizz then reveals to the ~~party~~ that the spell he was working on before is now ~~complete—the~~ Great ~~Leveller—which~~ manages to weaken Hybris enough for the ~~party~~ to be able to face him in battle.

	Now that he has been weakened, the ~~party~~ is on equal footing with the king and is able to defeat him after a tough battle. Hybris loses consciousness afterwards and is able to return to normal, to the relief of Father Martyn. The full power of the Incantation is sealed away once more and the ~~party~~ takes a rest afterwards. When they wake up, the Queen Mother thanks both the ~~party~~ and the Wizz for their deeds and for saving the kingdom. They then speak with Hybris, who is still resting in bed after the ordeal, who tells the ~~party~~ he owes them a debt of gratitude. He then says he hopes it is not too late to atone for his sins and hopes that the people of Hubble can live in peace from now on.

	The first battle against Hybris is one of the few in the game that the ~~party~~ will not be able to win in most circumstances. He has an absurdly high amount of HP, can act twice per turn, frequently casts powerful spells against the ~~party~~, and is capable of landing ~~desperate attacks~~. In the 3DS version, it is impossible to win against Hybris in any case, possibly due to him recovering all of HP at the end of each turn, preventing the ~~party~~ from dealing any significant damage to him.

	During the second battle against Hybris, he is much more manageable due to the Wizz's casting of The Great Leveller. He loses some of the abilities from the first battle, including the ability to land ~~desperate attacks~~ and Freezing Blizzard, but he can still be a challenging opponent. Attack magic will work normally against him and he only has a slight resistance against [[Sap]]. It is recommended to protect the ~~party~~ by casting both [[Insulatle]] and [[Magic Barrier]]. As long as the player does not let their healer fall to Hybris's spells, he will eventually be defeated.
