Synopsis

Deep within the woods, Asumu unexpectedly finds herself at Ibuki's camp. There, Akira, with a visible irritation, informs her that her constant presence would only impede Hibiki and that she would be better off departing. Doubt clouds Asumu’s mind as she questions the validity of Akira’s words, turning to Hibiki upon his arrival to gauge his feelings on the matter. Following this, Ibuki vanquishes the Ittan-momen, and a fragile reconciliation forms between Akira and Asumu.
