After his master's death and Megas's rising, Gillian formed ,along with other Rogles's soldiers ( like Zaluga), a resistance to fight Megas's forces. After the defeat of many of them, Gillian and his remaining forces entrenched in their hideout in Vanity's swamp. When they saw Yuuko coming there, they attacked her while she tried to open her way to the castle, in the end of the way, Yuuko met Gillian who fought against her to try getting the Valis sword. During the fight, Yuuko questioned Gillian about his motivations but he refused to answer her. In that momment, Megas appeared in front of them to tell Gillian that his remaining soldiers were anihilated leaving him as the last survivor of Rogles's resistance. Megas then propossed him to join his army, but Gillian decided to die fighting so he tries to attack Megas, as a result, the Dark emperor cut him brutally in half with one hit of his sword, ending Gillian's life in front of Yuuko's stunned view.
