At the Tengyo Festival maid café, Lin Guang joined Shiori Itsuka and the Spirits in serving customers as a handsome butler, drawing a crowd. Reine Murasame and Yoshino visited, and the chapter ended as Miku Izayoi approached Shiori.

• A gust of wind made Natsumi Kyouno sneeze and revert to her true appearance, which Lin Guang and the others aboard [Fatebreaker] saw.

Lin Guang declined Ratatoskr’s request to use [Rataibako] to investigate Natsumi Kyouno, while Natsumi disguised herself as Shido Itsuka to target girls at Raizen High School. The chapter ended with Lin Guang stopping her from touching Tohka Yatogami and confronting her disguise.

• After Natsumi Kyouno mistakenly believed Shido Itsuka had seen her true appearance, she threatened to ruin his life and fled on [Haniel].
• At Ratatoskr, Shido Itsuka explained what happened, but Lin Guang refused Kotori Itsuka’s request to investigate Natsumi with [Rataibako], saying they should proceed normally.
