After having a sleep in the Magic Institute, Yuri wakes up and go downstairs to talk to everyone before going out

- Zero: So in order to find him, we should go into the capital to see if anyone can get us to the Council

- Chaoz: Wait, i thought you can get to the Council? You're a spy!

- Zero: Yes i am but i'm the member of the Critical Council, not the Striker Council.

- Yuri: So how can we contact them from the capital?

- Zero: There is an annual tournament called Critical Strike. The winner will be able to see the Grandmaster of both Councils

- Yuri: Let's sign up and win this! I must make every opporturnity count to see him again!

- Chaoz: Wait what? We are going to fight there?

- Zero: Unfortunately it's too late to sign up. Let's see if we can find anyone able to win

- Yuri: If we have to bet to see him, i will. You go with me, Chaoz?

- Chaoz: Of course, why not?

- Zero: Goodbye Archmage Wardin, we are going!

- Wardin: Take care of yourself!

Then they get on Zero's car to the capital. Unfortunately, they were ambushed by a group of bandits.

- Bandit Leader: Bring me the traitor Zero and that animal girl then we will let you go

- Yuri: Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhh?

- Zero: I did this so let me take responsibility

- Chaoz: No you helped us so we must help you. Wait until i count to 3. 1, 2, 3!

They jump out of the car, preparing for a fight.

- Jonson: Guess i should introduce myself or that would be rude. I am Jonson, the Bandit Leader of the Mystic Forest. Now give them out or die!

- Zero: If you want to fight, then be ready for it!

- Chaoz: Stay back Yuri, you don't have any power yet, just cover me!

He then turn into his Shadow form and weakened badly

- Chaoz: Oh no! My Shadow form is weak under sunlight. Wait until i figure something out.

- Zero: Wait. If no Strikers can fight for us, then how are we supposed to win this fight?

Chaoz, now leaning himself on the car, starting to see himself turning into the car's matter.

- Chaoz: Wait, i can use this for these situations. Now i'm metal man.

- Yuri: Zero, aren't you a Striker? Why don't you use your power?

- Zero: Actually i don't know what power i have. They told me i can be a Striker but idk if that's true or not.

- Jonson: Enough talking! Now i will smash you with my ability: Boulder Shower!

Though Chaoz can take some rocks but it's hard to fight Jonson because his body is now covered with rocks, and it keeps regenerating everytime Chaoz smash them.

- Zero: The shower is coming to me! Help!

The Shower slowly come to Zero, then drop tons of boulders on him but they keep dissapearing when they touch him.

- Zero: Finally i know what is my power! Your power is useless against me!

Zero then charge toward Jonson with his scythe, trying to kill Jonson.

Jonson use his rock arm to hit him, but as soon as the rocks touch him, they dissappear.

So Jonson is defeated? No! Under his rock shell is a spiky armor.

- Zero: Arghhhhhhhhhh!

- Jonson: You think i hadn't prepared for that? Your scythe is nothing to my armor!

Zero then hit a building nearby and fainted

- Jonson: One down. Wait until i defeat this metal guy and you shall be mine!

- Chaoz: I can't hold him anymore!

Yuri tried to use her gun to shoot Janson, but the bullets can't pierce through his rock skin. Watching her teamates falling down, she thought

"I was really a god in CS but couldn't do anything here. Why am i so useless? Why can't i even protect my friends? Sorry, i may have to leave my body here, Vark, Chaoz."

- ???: Don't cry my girl! Where is my cheerful Yuri?

A voice just appear in her head. Everything just stopped for that moment and become dark, only showing her face.

- Yuri: Who are you? What can i do now?

- ???: We will meet each other again. You actually is one of the strongest Strikers but your power only appear when you come to your limit.

- Yuri: I am? Then tell me what to do!

- ???: No one can tell you what you have to do. Just do what you think is right. I am always watching you.

Then the voice shut up, the scene begin to turn back normal

- Yuri: No! I haven't finished! I still have a lot more to ask!

When she open her eyes, she see herself covered with a pink aura and neon particles

[Moonlight Sabers]

She summon a strings of 5 pink light sabers come towards Janson which cut him into pieces, totally saves Zero and Chaoz.

Jonson's body then dissappear.

- Yuri: Zero, what happen if i die here?

- Zero: As i know, youe soul will be contained in a realm where you can respawn at any Altar but need permission of the owner. I don't think the bandits can take control of an Altar. Let's just get to the Capital.

- Chaoz: I need time to recover after those hits so i think i will stay in the car

And they all head to the Capital with nothing to be able to stop them.
