Following on the heels of Seed's successful career in Heavy, Culgan finally takes his turn in the DL. His opponent is much like him: both are older men new to the arena, so neither of them really has an advantage in experience. However, unlike his insane foe, Culgan is a intelligent, calculating general. Not to mention Culgan has some healing to back up his power, while Galam just has to depend on brute strength alone. With some good planning and a little bit of luck, Culgan should have this match in the bag.

He may be wracked with insanity, but King Galam finds strength in his madness. The demon possessing this elderly monarch must be a speed demon, since like all Greater Devils, King Galam can double-turn any enemy, no matter how fast. To add injury to insult, this action is often his brutal, defense-ignoring Demon Breath spell. Galam is also resistant to lightning spells, and his health and defense are formidable. Put it all together, and not only is Culgan beaten on offense, he's beaten on defense as well.

It was horrific.
The posters went all-out, announcing a big, sexy and mind-blowing T-Shirt contest, sponsored by Kefka, Valvalis and Loki. Every single non-Suikoden, non-Lucius-Raven-Legault male in the DL wanted to see what that was all about. Well, and Seed. But god knows what Seed was going to do in that contest.
In the contest place (a single, rather flashy bar called White Wolf Ugly), the audience was going wild with the curtains closed. They badly wanted to see the contestants - after all, the DL was clad with girls people want to see in their most beautiful, or whatever. Which made the reactions to the actual contest even more terrible.
As the curtains were drawn, the whistles of excitement were replaced by gasps and awkward silence. The contestants were... King Galam and Culgan. Apparently, their DL match was replaced by a contest, like it happens often in the arena. Just... not like that.
Between Galam's pointless efforts to do sexy poses as he danced the Macarena under a stream of water and Culgan's wet catwalking under the applause of Seed, the sea of deceived testosterone present in that bar exploded into a mass slaughter. Chairs were burned, wet t-shirts were torn into shreds and the contestants were ripped into tiny flesh ribbons. After the disaster, Kefka, Valvalis and Loki went to the destroyed "arena" to see the results of their prank.
Seeing how Galam's ripped, soaked body was the only one present at the stands (apparently, Seed took Culgan's remains to a healer ASAP), they declared the deranged king the winner of the match. And The King of Wet T-Shirts. Which, unfortunately, led post-revival Galam to replace his regal robe with a perenially wet, tiny pink tank-top with the writings "I'm Too Sexy" on it. The pranksters had their work done perfectly, albeit not without some side-effects.
They probably don't care, either.
Culgan: 24
Galam: 29
