As noted in the title of this section, you will need to be playing the Black Eagles route of Fire Emblem: Three Houses to be able to get this Dark Seal.
First, you’ll have to choose to side with the Church towards the end of Act 1. During the Battle of Garreg Mach, you’ll encounter the Death Knight. The Death Knight does appear in two other battles prior to this, but he’s incredibly powerful at this point and it’ll be pretty difficult to beat him at this point.
If you manage to beat the Dark Knight during either Chapter 4, Chapter 8, Chapter 12, or Chapter 18, you’ll be rewarded with a Dark Seal. It’s also worth noting that you can use the ‘Steal’ option to simply pinch this item off the Death Knight without having to get embroiled in a lengthy battle with a powerful opponent.
