23화: 레이하와 마츠카제 눈으로 미유와 라르바 포위, 치명적 대결 시작

23

An unnamed stray shinma, disguised as a salaryman, is frozen to death, and news is later reported upon the matter. Yukari and Hisae begin to speculate about Miyu, but Chisato sees nothing wrong. Reiha and Matsukaze cover the city with snow to lure Miyu into battle and encase Larva in ice. Reiha has shown envy toward Miyu since the time she had heard Kitjutsushi calling out for Miyu before he was killed by Tonbi. After that, Reiha and Matsukaze had stumbled upon an unnamed shinma deep in the forest feasting on a creature, and she somehow manifested her ice powers and froze this shinma to death. When Reiha is unable to dodge Miyu's fire attack, Matsukaze shields her from being incinerated. Reiha becomes outraged by this, going all out at full force. However, as she prepares to finish Miyu off, Larva breaks free and cuts off her head. Reiha departs, promising that she will defeat Miyu the next time they meet. (Source: Wikipedia)
