Ep. 6: Witches attempt a rocket-assisted strike on a high-altitude Neuroi spire core.

6

The Witches identify a massive Neuroi spire with a core located beyond the reach of their Striker Units. To overcome this altitude barrier, they devise a multi-stage rocket booster plan, selecting Sanya for the core attack. Eila is enraged that Yoshika is assigned to protect Sanya rather than herself, as she has never used a shield in combat. After failing to persuade Perrine to train her in shield usage, Eila’s readiness to surrender irritates Sanya, leading to a confrontation. The following day, as the launch proceeds, Eila apologizes and voices her wish to protect Sanya. Moved by this change of heart, Yoshika swaps positions with Eila, allowing the latter to finally deploy her shield and safeguard Sanya during the successful destruction of the core.
