Machine-Doll wa Kizutsukanai

Synopsis

Shoko recalls the past when she gave Raishin a new lease on life on the condition that he kill Tenzen or else she would use his body parts to build an automaton. Before Raishin fights Shin, Charlotte tells Frey the truth about her situation to keep Raishin from putting himself in danger. During the battle, Raishin gets Shin to attack from behind where Yaya is waiting for him. She slams Shin into a brick wall and repeatedly throws punches to immobilize him. Sigmund follows up by firing his Luster Cannon. Shin dodges the attack, thereby confirming the presence of his puppeteer as he could not have dodged the attack without a puppeteer resupplying him with magic. Frey locates Cedric and Yaya activates her Final Stronghold ability to defeat Shin. Cedric and Shin retreat and Cedric reveals herself to be the 87th ranked puppeteer, Alice Bernstein. Having watched the battle from a distance, Kimberley warns Magnus that as Tenzen Akabane he is being closely watched and that manufacturing human life is magic's greatest taboo. The next day, Raishin recovers in the infirmary and the girls stir up a big commotion over Raishin's presumed preference over girls with large breasts, which greatly upsets Charlotte. Kimberley drops by to inform Raishin that the clock tower will be rebuilt using the Belew family fortune that was confiscated and frozen following the incident and that Henriette's enrollment has been voided but that she will remain at the Academy as Cruel's lab assistant. After everybody but Yaya leaves, Yaya expresses her concern about having to face her friends, but Raishin maintains his optimism, which Yaya interprets as a declaration of love.
