Later Mephisto fulfilled his end of the bargain,but in the end it turned out that Beatriz was actually a nun. Severtes finally had Beatriz's heart but they could never truly be together because of her creed. Enraged at his ill position Severtes devised a plan to create an armor that can protect the soul of the wearer.In order for the armor to have that power, a pure soul would be necessary; that is where Beatriz became useful.
