The Invincible, Spear-Shelled City Glendan Draws Near!.As Layfon is back in the hospital to be treated, Leerin visits and confronts him. She scolds him about his unexpected decision to remain active in battles, despite his initial resolve to turn over a new leaf. She then reveals that she previously encountered Nina at Myath, piquing Layfon's interest. Meanwhile, Gorneo crosses paths with Savalis, who tells him that he is in search of a Fallen One somewhere in the city. Savalis coldly tells Gorneo of Gahard's fate as a contaminoid, whom he eliminated. His harsh comments and pointed remarks about Gorneo's own mediocrity angers Shante, and he leaves Gorneo loudly weeping for Gahard's demise. Kalian contact Layfon that Glendan is getting closer and preparations are being made for the worst-case scenario of the two cities battling one another. Layfon declines the offer of returning to Glendan with Leerin, and he sets out to meet with the rest of the 17th Platoon. Layfon believes that Nina is housing the electronic spirit of Zuellni and is possessed by the electronic spirit of Gandoweria inside her body. Kalian suggests that the only method is to forcibly extricate it out of her, but they all are reminded of what happened to Dinn after this was attempted. A contaminoid has breached the academic city of Zuellni, creating an aurora in the sky, but it is consequently split in half caused by the cannon fuelled with kei. Nina makes her way outside of the city, uncertain of what Gandoweria means to make her do.
