Summary

 * The chapter starts as Takane is confronted by her opponent after he losses, as she quickly denies the fact of her being the Lightning Dancer Ene. His companion, confused to what he was talking about, the loser tells him with awe, “She performed so well at the Dead Bullet -1989- Tournament, It was called 'The Dancer Legend.'”


 * As Takane thinks that she will get caught red handed as the guy's description about her was indeed true, she yells at him to get out of the room. As he compares that she used the same technique that Ene uses, the Phantom Waltz Holy Nightmare, Takane frets and tells the both that she isn't Lightning Dancer Ene and begs them to get out. From the racket that the trio were making, Haruka pops up and asks them what was wrong, but was left interrupted as Takane screams for everyone to get out. Afraid of the girl, the three men leave the room in a rush.


 * Takane reassures herself that Haruka hasn't heard any of the racket from before. She states in her mind that only a “Chuunibyou” would come up with a name like that, to her embarrassment. She decides that if Haruka finds out he would he would be deeply repulsed by it, therefore Takane states that she would have no choice but to delete it and die.


 * In her imagination, it shows a clearly repelled Haruka towards her. As she thinks more about it, the boy that she was thinking about shows up behind her. Takane frets and asks him on when he got there. He replies, saying when she said she had no choice but to delete her account and die.


 * Due to her stuttering, she thinks that she seems definitely suspicious, and that Haruka might find out about her weird account due to her actions. But instead of finding out, Haruka praises Takane on her win, also saying that it was fun due to her cooperation. She sighs, grateful that he never found out adds that it was an easy win for her. In her mind, she says that as long as the Number One nationwide veteran doesn't come, there's no way that she could lose.


 * When Haruka praises Takane again, saying that he would definitely want to watch her play as Ene and use her move Phantom Waltz Holy Nightmare Technique for himself, she spits out the soda she was drinking from shock. Instead of seeing him repulsed by her, he was actually amazed; as Haruka asked Takane to teach him sometime, since he wanted to play with her. Despite all of that, in the end Takane is glad.


 * New customers arrive, which Haruka answers the door. Takane comments that even though that he is sickly, a guy like him could be attentive at some times. A guy with a black hoodie goes inside, saying that he looked forward to play against Takane, bowing. She says the same thing to him. While she told her new opponent that she would explain the rules, Takane turned to Haruka, telling him that she would give her best shot.


 * The boy in the black hoodie asks a girl named Kido if she wanted to play, which confuses Takane. There was no one there except the two of them. Takane couldn't hold a yelp of surprise when suddenly a girl appears when Takane knows that she wasn't there a moment ago. While Kido agrees to play against Takane, Kano notices the discomfort of the young woman, stating that Kido has a kind of weak presence, so that people often don't notice her. Kido retorts back by punching him on the stomach.


 * Takane contemplates if the girl in front of her was actually a ghost, but dismisses it quickly. They start the game, on which Kido picks the normal difficulty. Takane feels pity for the girl so she holds back until the game ends in 30 seconds. Due to the fact that Kido predicted the outcome of the game to her loss, she uses her eye power to make the targets in front of Takane disappear, much to her surprise. Soon after, all of the targets in the game turn invisible, which only Kido could see them and shoot them down. The game ends and the points are 36800 and 36700 for Takane and Kido respectively. Kano points out that his companion lost, and that she should apologize to the 'oneesan' who played against her since Kido cheated. The girl, guilty from her crime, starts crying and walks out. As Takane doesn't understand to what happened in the game, she tells Kano that it was just a glitch and it wasn't his friend's fault. Kano replies, saying that she may not believe him, but Kido actually used a physic ability. The duo leave.


 * A cry of surprise comes from the outside, the voice belonging to Haruka. He dashes inside, asking Takene if her previous competitor was there the whole time. She replies a yes pointing to the scores flashing on the computer. If she wasn't there at all, nothing would be on the electronic right then.


 * Haruka and Takane walk around the stalls, as it is their break time. The young boy, carrying bags of food. When the latter tells him that she would pay him back for all the food that she ate, he dismissed it, saying that their teacher had given Haruka 10,000 yen from winning Pachinko. Haruka continues to eat huge parts of the food that they bought, and Takane warns him that he will get fat if he continues to do so. The eater informs her that no matter how much food he eats, he would never get fat. Takane tells him that she wishes to have a body that never gets hungry and a body that doesn't need sleep as well, but Haruka confessed that it would be boring in his opinion.


 * In the end, three men in military styled clothing passes by the stands where Takane and Haruka were sitting by, both finding it odd; the latter inspected that it might be some type of fashion. Takane in the other hand, hopes that they wouldn't go to their booth, but somehow she has a bad feeling about it.
