Ayase and Ikki meet on the roof top, only for Ayase to jump off, prompting Ikki to use his Noble Art to save her. Ayase reveals that she planned to prevent Ikki from using his abilities during the match since he can only use it once every 24 hours. Now weak and exhausted, Ikki somehow makes it back to his room where Stella, who was having a perverted dream, awakens and helps Ikki. Now Ikki has to fight Ayase without his abilities and on a battle field rigged with traps that Ayase set. However, Ikki, who has learned why Ayase is so determined, still wants to help her regain her pride. Despite sustaining serious damage, Ikki is not only able to see through and defeat Ayase's technique to win, but also to break through to her and offer his help so that she could regain what she has lost.
