Yuka, bended down to look at Rei, commented, "It looks like this child..." Her hand emitted a faint glow, indicating that she had used her Alice on him. Rei looked surprised, hinting at his changing circumstances.
Yukihira shared that when he first met Rei, he was overwhelmed by the Rotting Alice, and the only way to protect himself was through Nullification. Rei's Alice was exceptionally strong, to the extent that his entire body had turned rotten at birth, leading to his abandonment by his parents. The school had kept him locked away under the Middle School section, denying him access to daylight. Yukihira disclosed that he had given the name "Rei" to the child.
Yuka's use of her insertion alice was deemed useful as she placed Yukihira's Alice stone inside Rei, causing his rotting condition to improve slightly. Yukihira was astounded by this power, and both he and Rei expressed their satisfaction.
" Rei, no matter what happens, Sensei will protect and care for you." Yukihira assured the boy who had felt a glimmer of hope hearing such warm words from someone he trust.
This is the reason why Yuka deeply admire the teacher, not only would Yukihira go such lengths just for his students but he care for their well-being especially those who are constantly in need of help like Mina, Yuka, and now Serio.
" Why do I feel warm whenever my eyes gaze upon Sensei..." Yuka muttered to herself.
Little did they know, this event and action was later on reported to the ESP, signaling a huge trouble for the selfless teacher.
Back at the Academy, Yuka had a heartfelt conversation with Yukihira while walking back to the students' dormitory.
" It is best for you to live a happy life, even without my presence." Yukihira started. Yuka felt like the man was setting up a wall that she should never cross once again. It became evident that Yukihira would have to leave the school due to his recent actions.
" All the things I did was to protect my dearest students. To protect you from those wicked people, yet since I do not hold any authority here in the academy..." Yukihira sadly brushed his hand against his hair in frustration.
" This might be our last meeting for now, Yuka. It is unclear when I could come back and meet all of you again..." The guy was like saying his farewell to his student.
Unable to retort anything knowing that Yukihira's punishment was duly because of her decisions, Yuka made a promise to protect the students in his absence, urging him to take care of himself and return once the time comes. " Sensei, I swear on my name to use my abilities to protect the kids here in the academy so that they won't have to suffer fates like me. Being taken advantage of by those people.
Yuka held Yukihira's hand. " So... Please don't push me away. As long as I am breathing this oath shall continue, I will wait for the day you will come back to us. So once everything is resolved I hope to see Sensei's smile once again..."
In a tender moment, Yukihira embraced Yuka and sealed the promise with a loving kiss.
The scene continued on with Yuka's reflective monologue about her lifelong dream of having a family with someone she loves and sharing that love with their children. The couple found solace in each other's arms. However, as they lay in bed together, Yukihira's phone rang, interrupting their intimate moment.
On the other side, the ESP arrived to retrieve Rei and expressed pity for the child, questioning who had treated him so poorly. " Poor you, whose heart is so wicked to lock you up in this dark, filthy, cramped cell?"
Nodacchi asked Mikan whether she still want to continue their journey in the past after all the information they've seen beyond the fragmented memories. Misaki gave Mikan a nod as if she was encouraging Mikan to decide.
