inside the clinic, Judas rushes to grab a wet towel and places it on Yura's forehead, while Kimimaru is injured. Tine wraps a bandage around his wounds.
Judas glances at the window. "They're destroying the yard... we won't let her do that." Tine glances at the window. "She's back... I can't believe how strong she is. When I used my Yamuichi on her, it healed instantly... like it was nothing to her. I wonder how strong that woman is."
Judas notices Kimimaru's skin. His body stiffens, fingers twitching slightly as if something inside him had moved. A faint ripple spreads across his skin. Not outside... inside. His shoulder shifts unnaturally, like something is pressing outward. A thin line slowly forms along his arm, glowing faintly, not like a wound... more like a seam being unzipped.
From within, a hand emerges. Calm. Controlled. Ishika's fingers push through first, followed by her arm, as if she were simply stepping through a doorway no one else could see.
Ishika groans and looks around, noticing Tine and Judas staring at her. "Ugh... sorry, sensei... you know Kimimaru's body is weak, so I go out... besides, he was deeply stabbed by the lady's weapon. It feels like... it touches you. Your body stops reacting properly. Muscles freeze for a split second, like your nerves don't understand what just happened."
Judas' eyes widen before glancing at the window. "It seems hard to defeat her... we have to help them, but we have to take care of Kimimaru and Yura." Tine nods and grabs an ice and places it on top of the bandage.
"His body is weak, he's still alive but too weak. I have to take care of him first." Ishika glances at Kimimaru, her face turning concerned. She reaches out and holds his hand for the first time. She's holding his hand... it makes her stomach flutter... sun.
Himiko's naginata weapon sends a sharp pressure spreading outward, not just from the wound, but through your entire body, like something is pushing from the inside. Breathing becomes heavy and uneven, as if the air itself is being forced out of your lungs. But the worst part isn't the physical feeling. It's the sensation that something is being taken from you. Not blood...
Not just strength... but something deeper, like your energy, your will, your presence is being pulled into the blade itself. Your body weakens, not because of the injury alone, but because you feel like you're losing control over yourself.
In the yard, Hero throws his diamond card toward Himiko, who is floating midair, looking down at them calmly, with no expression. Behind her, Hero already teleports behind her because of his diamond card and throws a club card, then it explodes before dropping on the ground.
Shougo's stamina runs out now. He can't handle it now, but he won't let his students be in trouble as he is just about to activate his forbidden energy that he has never used his entire life, but-
Griffin grabs his arm. "Shougo, don't let it. They can do it by themselves and handle her through their strategy and teamwork. You have to trust them." Shougo pauses and looks at his students, who are looking up at Himiko. "No... I won't let them face a powerful lady... they're still teenagers, Griffin." Griffin adjusts his hat. "Trust them, Shougo. Being a better divine warrior is useless when you're not strong enough."
Shougo argues back, "Being a better divine warrior is not about strength! It's about how they handle themselves! How they know to talk and use their brain. I trust them, Griffin, but this... it's-"
Lady Chõko laughs as she steps closer, her hips swaying. "Ahh~ a wonderful day. Let me be clear, I admit it, you're powerful... but no, you're not. I trust myself in my own confidence. Besides, why don't you just break this school?"
Tyouro's jaw drops and he glares at her. "HEY! ARE YOU BETRAYING US?! YOU DIDN'T EVEN INTRODUCE YOURSELF! DO YOU THINK YOU'RE A FAMOUS ACTRESS LIKE ANGELINA JOLIE?" Lady Chõko laughs harder. "YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYA! Don't tell me you're in love with me?" She winks. Tyouro looks away, blushing, and whispers to himself, "I prefer Tifa Lockhart..." Kairo raises his eyebrows and kicks him. "Hey you! We're in danger!"
All students, even teachers and Himiko, glance at them both. Himiko's face is calm. "I would love that... but you don't know that they're fake." Tyouro glares up at her. "HEY, SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" Lady Chõko smirks and steps closer. She wears a Viking fur coat, and she walks like a model. "Lady, even I don't know you. Why can't you just tell us about you?"
Everyone's jaw drops at her suggestion, shocked at how confidently and calmly she talks.
Seiyan's eyes widen. "Damn, she's not scared? Or is she going to kill us?" Reji shrugs. "She's crazy and overconfident."
Himiko stares at them blankly and blinks twice. "Cute... you're like a model. I admit it... I find you more gorgeous."
Tyouro's eyes widen, shocked and surprised. "Is she insane?! If I were her, I would kill her and beat her..." Kairo watches him and laughs shyly. "Man, you're assuming too much. Besides, she's a baddie better than that lady we're fighting-"
Himiko is already behind him.
Kairo freezes before clenching his fist and punching her, sending her across the yard. He cheers himself, thinking he finally hurt her... but the real Himiko is in front of Lady Chõko.
Shougo and Griffin watch Kairo and shake their heads. "Pew..." Kairo... pauses. "Damn it... hey, let's end here! I won't stop after what you did to my friends and my favorite school!"
Himiko watches him, interested. "Oh, I would love that... that's what I'm waiting for how pathetic you are..." Kairo tightens his jaw. "I would never let you do that again to my friends..." he pauses. "My best friends."
