After their little moment, Akihiro and Haruka decided to return to the castle. Rino asked Eureka for a spar. Nana obviously decided to go with her parents. She is not as training addict as her siblings and she has no plans on being pulled into training as well.
As their swords met each other, Rino and Eureka spar for a while without speaking any words. The heaviness of Eureka's attacks were different from when they first sparred by that river bank. This time she is attacking much more seriously.
Rino took it seriously as well as he felt this. Her message was clear, this could be the last time so fight me like your life depended on it. In exchange, I shall fight you with everything I've got.
From the very start, when he asked her for a spar, he already has the question all of them, the ten of them, wanted to ask. Something even Raven evades to answer when they ask him or when they try to probe.
'Why do you seem like you're going to leave?'
