Chapter Summary: “The Arriving Ascension Ritual”

Aftermath of the New Blade War

A week after the battle, Tsukimi Rito remains absent from his teaching position, officially described as being on “personal leave.” This confuses Imari, Julie, Tachibana Tomoe, Miyabi, and Kokone Toru, who witnessed Rito’s dangerous attack on the students. They believe he should have been expelled or imprisoned, while Noah remains completely indifferent to the explanation.

Ascension Ritual eligibility

Substitute teacher Mikuni announces that students who achieved at least three victories and defeated three Bonded Pairs during the New Blade War will receive an additional opportunity to undergo the Ascension Ritual. The eligible pairs are:

• Imari and Julie
• Tachibana Tomoe and Miyabi
• Kokone Toru and Torazaki Aoi
  Noah also qualifies, having achieved an exceptional seven victories. Had Rito not interrupted the fighting, Noah might have reached ten victories.

Return of Torazaki Aoi

The group arrives at the ritual site and finds Kokone Toru and Torazaki Aoi already present. Although Aoi was seriously injured by Rito and should not have recovered so quickly, he has forced himself out of the hospital. He insists that his injuries were insignificant, but Toru reveals that Aoi left because he was embarrassed to remain hospitalized. The group jokes about his stubbornness and hopes that advancing to Rank II will accelerate his healing.

The group’s feelings

Tomoe encourages everyone to hope for success, while Miyabi nervously worries about the ritual. Julie remains confident and reassures the others that they will all ascend successfully. The chapter emphasizes that physical and spiritual readiness—not merely receiving another opportunity—determines whether someone can successfully advance.

Noah’s observations about Kokone Toru

Noah reflects on Toru’s unusual Blaze, which takes the form of a shield. Normally, a Blaze manifests as a simple weapon because the human soul is considered too simple to produce a complex structure. A shield is already an unusual exception, while Noah’s revolver is similarly rare but still technically a weapon. Lucifer’s Crest allows Exceeds to manifest forms based on their souls, experiences, and wishes. Noah suspects that Toru’s shield, combined with his mysterious technique related to Annihilation Strike, indicates an extraordinary future. Toru becomes the third person after Natsu and Rentaro whom Noah believes possesses limitless potential.

The Ascension Ritual begins

A staff member leads the students to the ritual chamber. A new Lucifer’s Crest is implanted into Noah through a needleless injection at the back of his neck. Unlike the painful first implantation, this process causes only mild warmth. White crest patterns appear across his chest, glowing like flames. Although the transformation is not visibly dramatic, Noah’s enhanced senses allow him to recognize that his body has undergone a profound internal change.

Key Themes
