The leaders of the two armies now come face to face.  Phra Ram unleashes his Akaniwat arrow at his adversary, and the lions drawing Kumpagan's chariot fall dead.  The Regent of Longka fires his last arrow at Phra Ram as he comes to ride him down, but sees it hiss wide of the mark.  With his great bow stave, Ram beats the demon to his knees and then draws back and fires the Promat arrow.  Mortally wounded, crying out with a voice like the wind in the mountains, Kumpagan falls to the earth.  His hands pluck at the arrow, but to no avail.

With his last breath, the Regent of Longka reconciles himself to his brother Pipeck and begs forgiveness of Phra Ram, whom he now recognizes to be the god Narai.  Convinced that his contrition is sincere, Phra Ram commends the soul of the demon to the gods, and Kumpagan dies with the assurance that he will be received into paradise without delay.

In Longka, Totsagan quickly learns of the defeat of his younger brother and alone in his chamber mourns his death.
