Mayumi: "Wait, wait! What's going on anymore?"

Mari was nervous to say anything, and Ryuga really didn't want to reveal his identity, especially when there were government agents around. However, seeing that he had no other choice, he put a finger on his lips.

Ryuga: "I'll only say, if the government agents leave the room."

Kyoko: "Eh? Why?"

Ryuga: "Well, obviously, it's because I don't want the government knowing."

Major: "I'm afraid we can't do that, as it may pertain to national security."

Ryuga: *sighs* "This is why I hate being around government agents."

Juumonji: "Well? Are you going to tell us?"

Ryuga, nervous, looked at Mari, who looked just as nervous as he was. Probably because, if he didn't say it, she'd be forced to. Figuring that he'd save her from that, since it would be revealed anyway, he put a hand on his face. Purple flames started to cover him until they went out, showing him in his attire of the Unknown God. Most of the students and agents in the room gasped, and Ryuga sighed.

Ryuga: "Happy? Now that I've shown you what I am, can we get moving?"

Mayumi: "W-Wait, Ryuga, you're the Unknown God?"

Ryuga: "I'll have you know that I didn't pick the name."

Mayumi bowed, with a stern look on her face.

Mayumi: "It's an honor to be in the presence of someone like you. Thank you for everything you've done for this country and the Ten Master Clans."

Ryuga's mind: "Ah, this is why I didn't want to reveal it to them. I hate getting praised like this."

Ryuga: "Well now that that's out of the way, should we focus on the task at hand?"

Kyoko: "O-Oh yes! Everyone, let's get ready to evacuate."

Ryuga and Miyuki said farewell to Tatsuya, and the two and their group started walking down a road. They started to walk towards the station, which was the extraction point, and they picked up injured along the way. As they walked, Ryuga got a lot of stares, but he didn't feel comfortable. Luckily for him, Miyuki grabbed his arm, to get him to look at her, and she flashed him one of her mesmerizing smiles. He felt like an angel had just hugged him, and his nervousness was replaced with a feeling of serenity. They walked a little bit more before hearing something like cars moving. Up ahead of them, large machines with sawblades and a minigun were heading towards them.

The machines were about to fire before Miyuki froze them solid, and Mayumi started pelting them with large icicles. This left the machines riddled with holes and incapacitated. They kept walking past those, but once they saw rubble near the underground passageway, they started to run towards it. Once they got there, Mayumi was horrified and worried to see if Azusa was all right or not, but her worries were soothed when Mikihiko examined the site with his magic and told her that everyone was okay. 

Not being able to head towards the station anymore, the group ended up calling for Mayumi and Shizuku's family for helicopters. Some police arrived, along with Erika's older brother, and the military left to handle the terrorist incident. Needless to say, the police were surprised to see the Unknown God also escorting the students, but they figured that he was paid to do it, since some children from big clans were there. 

They took a break and waited for the helicopters to fly in. Miyuki and Ryuga were off to the side, talking amongst themselves.

Miyuki: "So.. Now that you've exposed your identity... Will you leave the school?"
