P145

Mimuro: "Mei, I guess you already know, but we’ll fight without any protection."

Mei: "Mimuro…"

Mimuro: "That’s our style…"

Ritsuka: "We’ve been fighting a lot of kids recently, and here once again…"

Soubi: "Then let’s start!"

Ritsuka: "Fight with all your might!"

P146

Soubi: "Restriction!"

Mei: "Wa! He’s coming! Mimuro!"

Mimuro: "You’ll be fine."

P147

Mimuro: "Strike after…"

Mei: "No, I can’t, I have to defend!"

Mimuro: "Huh… Wait a minute, Mei, don’t decide by…"

Mei: "Duck-san! I count on you!!"

Ritsuka: "Wa! Whoa! What’s that?"

Soubi: "It’s a Fighter who’s not controlled yet."

P148

Mimuro: "Me~i!"

Mei: "The ducks are cute aren’t they?"

Soubi: "In a spell battle, Fighters have the ability to make images become reality thanks to words. When this cooperation is used quickly with a thorough vocabulary, the attack is stronger. In this kid’s case, her words sound childish… Images are powerful, she may be skillful…"

P149

Ritsuka: "…Skillful…?" /But… she looks like she’s about my age…"

Mimuro: "I said I’m fine…"

Mei: "Mi… Mimuro! I said you must be quiet while I’m concentrating!"

Soubi: "This leaf… like a blade, charge the enemy! All leaves, go through them like arrows. Ten, one hundred, one thousand… Go!"

P150

Mei: "No! To protect Mimuro…Iron cage! Appear!!"

P151

Soubi: "Ritsuka, what do you see?"

Mimuro: "Mei~! Listen to me! Don’t use mere defense!"

Mei: "I know!!"

Ritsuka: "What do I see…? A box… a cube? No, it’s a jungle-gym!"

Soubi: "Exactly. This kid uses what is right before us."

P152

Soubi: "It’s difficult to attack the enemy with strength when you need to quickly build an image. That’s why it is wise to prepare easy made ones if you get the chance. Spell invocation is also faster if simple. If it’s done unconsciously without the help of experience, it means she may be able to anticipate. But there’s no basis."

Ritsuka: "You mean they disagree?"

Soubi: "That’s it. A fighter must obey. There’s no other way. If they’re not strongly connected together, they won’t become strong."

P153

Ritsuka: "Are we connected?"

Soubi: "Of course."

Ritsuka: "If so… show me that you know how I feel!"

Soubi: "I know. You want this to end quickly, right? A mass! With your smashing strength! Destruct the enemy’s flesh in one blow!!"

Mei: /He’s coming! Is there a way I can defend and strike together?/
