Media outlets celebrate the stellar furnace experiment success at First High School. Takuma Shippou, informed by his father that the Saegusa Family will handle Diet member Kanda, suspects they exploited Tatsuya to claim the achievement. Taking out his frustration, Takuma verbally attacks Kasumi Saegusa on campus. Insults against her family push Kasumi to the edge of a magical duel with him. The Disciplinary Committee intervenes before violence occurs, detaining both students for questioning. To resolve their mutual animosity, Tatsuya proposes settling their dispute through an official match. This suggestion aims to end the conflict definitively, offering a structured alternative to the chaotic confrontation that was about to erupt between the two students on school grounds.
