Through the woods, Kaoi zigs and zags through the trees.

[BAM!]

[BAM!]

[BAM!]

While Garfiel is punching every tree in his way.

Garfiel: RAAHHHHH! Get back here!

With a stomp, he sends rocks in Kaoi's directions. Destroying all the trees blocking him.

Kaoi: Fourth Form: Blooming Flame Undulation!

In a swing of his blade, he destroyed all of the rocks that was heading his way and when a large one came

Kaoi: Third Form: Blazing Universe

He cuts it in half. Looking up he sees Garfiel's closing in on him.

Garfiel: Finally stopped running. Ya bastard and yeh drawn yor blade.

Kaoi: Just thought a change of scenery was needed.

Garfiel: It doesn't matter where we are. I've been itching for dis fight ever since I met you.

Kaoi: Well then, I hope to meet your expectations.

With that the two charge at each other.

Meanwhile

While the battle rages on, we find the green merchant walking along a dirt path, thing about the night before.

Flashback

Otto: Um,,, Kaoi sir, wouldn't it be best for you to talk to Lady Emilia? You are her friend.

Kaoi: Because Otto, she needs to know that even though I'm still there for her even when I'm far away. That's why it's important for you to deliver this message.

Otto: If you say so...

Kaoi: Oh and please drop the titles, when you talk to her I want you to not think about your positions.

Otto: But-

Kaoi: Please, Otto. It is important to talk to her like she is not above you.

Otto: Hmmmmm.... Fine.

Kaoi: Thanks Otto.

Flashback End

Otto: Please... [gulp] Stay safe, Sir Kaoi.

Calming his nerves, the hapless merchant makes his way, through a dirt path, he finds his way to a clearing. He finds sitting at where the barrier would be, the runaway candidate sitting on the ground next to the blue-haired maid.

Otto: Hello there, Mi– Emilia. Rem...

Emilia didn't respond. It was only until her companion nudged her to respond.

Rem: Miss Emilia, Otto is here.

Emilia: ....why... are you here Otto...

Otto: Kaoi sent me here to deliver a message.

Emilia: Kaoi... he must be angry it he didn't come here to tell me...

Otto: I don't think that is the case. The last I saw of him he was pretty worried about you.

Emilia: If he was worried ... then why did he break his promise!

Emilia cries as he buries her face into her legs and leans on Rem for support.
