Well, considering that Ban has been around since chapter 16, is a main character and happesn to be strong enough to tear Galan a new one for a minute or two i'm pretty sure he CAN'T die... due to plot protection.

My guess so far is that Elaine or Jericho will die to save Ban and perhaps that Merascylla will punish Galan for taking the soul and then take it away to research it (due to it's purety)

I really don't think Ban can just die... especially after all that development.
