Northern Path[]
Surprise meeting[]
Ghosts and Dietrich head to Organization Headquarters, intending to rescue Miria. But the Ghosts' Eyes, Tabitha, senses four warriors heading in same direction. Warriors are lead by Anastasia.[13]
Owing to the loss of Alicia and Beth, Anastasia's Hunt is recalled to Organization Headquarters. Anastasia returns with Nike, Keira and Phina on the "Northern Path," a secret route to Headquarters.[14] But they meet a man who awakens.[15]
Ghosts[]
Anastasia defeats Awakened Being, but other Awakeneds attack. Hunt is overwhelmed. During the battle, tentacles wound Phina. Nike orders Keira to evacuate Phina. Anastasia and Nike surrounded. But Ghosts and Dietrich rescue them.[16]
Hysteria[]
Attack[]
At Organization Headquarters, Hysteria dodges Miria's attack. Mira further awakens, but is pulled down to earth by Anastasia's hair. The Ghosts and Anastasia's Hunt have arrived.[17]
Hysteria evades Helen's Flexible Limb Stretching-Drill Sword attack, but fails to spot Dietrich and Nike, who cut free the captives. Anastasia and Helen catch the plunging warriors.[18]
Counterattack[]
Suddenly, Hysteria flies skyward, destroying Deneve's left arm, then Nike's right.[19] High above the suspended warriors, Hysteria fires something—it carves out the side of Dietrich's abdomen. Only Anastasia, Helen and Tabitha remain uninjured. Hysteria is firing tethered blades, which enable her to stop and turn in any direction.[20]
Later, Yuma helps Nike to regenerate her arm.
Misdirection[]
Hysteria offers to spare anyone who pulls out the sword from her throat. She is about to lose patience and attack everyone en masse, but Nike pulls out the sword. But this misdirects Hysteria's attention—Nike cuts free Anastasia, then Deneve and Tabitha grab Anastasia. Nike tries to strike Hysteria, who dodges the attack.[21]
