Removing the mask, the soldier reveals his face, or rather her face. Shiro notices her purple hair fall to both sides of her head. Her yellow eyes gaze at him as she smiles.

"My name is Juno Komaede, and I am a hero of justice who secretly has a legendary artifact hidden under my armor" she greets.

"My name is Liliana and this is Shiro. Have you been hiding your legendary artifact this whole time?"

"Mhm. If you want to know, my legendary artifact is the longsword Masayoshi."

"Masayoshi? You must have a strong sense of justice then." Juno nod.

"I will rid the world of evil." The tent rustles. "Get ready. They plan on blowing up the tent."

"Blow it up!? Oh crap!" Shiro ducks down as explosions shakes the tent, causing it to fill into the sky. When Shiro raises his head again , he notices that he is surrounded by Angel soldiers.

"Kill him!" they yell. They all charge at Shiro.

Where did Liliana and Juno go? Whatever; I'm sure they're fine. I need to deal with these soldiers by myself then.

Shiro removes his eye patch and wields his sword.

"Fire sword!" Shiro sword becomes ablaze. "Now!" His right eye turns orange-red and glows. The from his sword spreads and forms a circle, surrounding him. The Angels freeze in front of the fire.

"Damn, it's so hot, but at least I'm safe." Shiro's jaw drops as he notices the Angels grow wings and fly over the fire. "Oh crap. I need to...run!" Shiro opens a path in the fire and runs across the camp. He spots Juno and Liliana fighting Angel soldiers together soon after. They both are wielding their legendary artifacts.

"There you two are!" Shiro exclaims.

"Shiro! We're kinda busy, so can you help us?" Liliana asks.

"Sure thing." Two soldiers fight Liliana at the same time. Shiro rushes to her side, forcing one of the soldiers to focus on him. The soldier swings his sword at Shiro, who raises his own to block it.

"So you're the Seven Swordsman. Our Queen wants you dead at all costs" the soldier tells him.

"Well too bad I don't give a damn about your queen!" Shiro quickly breaks the sword-lock by exerting enough force to send the soldier's sword flying towards Juno, where its hilt hits her in the head.

"Hey! Watch it!" she snaps.

"Heh, sorry." Shiro looks at the soldier, who falls down to his knees. "Now get out of here if you want to be spared." The soldier nods and runs away from the camp. Shiro looks over to the girls, who appear to have also defeated their opponents without any bloodshed. Shiro looks away from them and sees the huge group of soldiers who were chasing him earlier fly towards them.

"Oh crap!" Juno and Liliana rush to Shiro's side.

"We can handle them. They will be punished for siding with evil!" Juno announces.

"I can deal with them" Shiro says as his sword surges with electricity and his right eye turns yellow.

Meanwhile, Acrisius and Emi watch the battle at the camp.

"I see why they are the back-up group now. They're incredibly weak" Acrisius sighs.

"They're doing what they planned. They're defeating the soldiers without killing any" Emi tells him.

"I'll be back" Acrisius says as he flies away from Emi.

Back to Shiro.

"Fall down." Electricity flies off Shiro's sword and shocks one of the Angels, causing them to fall to the ground.
