Elsewhere, Chisato took the initiative to release a Valkyria: an S-rank witch. In order to detect #1107, he has team of A-rank witches to monitor her but underestimate her, who had already killed them.

A Sudden Reunion

An army of police confronts the Valkyria for questioning, provoking her to unleash her antimatter magic that erupts the mountain. Having the citizens devastated of the explosion, one of the witches, Hatsuna Wakabayashi, recovers from her wounds thanks to her regeneration ability and freed away. Looking up on what happened, the girls tell Ryōta that Valkyria is an ultimate witch with many types of magic. Despite that fighting Valkyria is out of their league, they think of any strategy to avoid her. Hatsuna who overheard Valkyria has detected the witches at an observatory searches for them. She finds the club members faking their deaths as to protect themselves. Hatsuna is welcome to the astronomy club and goes to wash at the onsen. The girls tell Hatsuna how reliable Ryōta is. Testing if he really is trustworthy, she pretends to be helplessly struck on a radio tower and calls Ryōta to get her. She deliberately slips off and Ryōta grabs her. Refusing to let go, even though she plead her regeneration power, Ryōta swings her back onto the tower but sends him falling to the ground. Luckily, Kotori saves him, at which point reliefs Hatsuna. Touch of Ryōta's actions, Hatsuna bluntly confess and kisses him in front of the others, incited Neko to blast down the tower in jealous rage. Later, Kogorō calls in Ryōta with a theory that the witches' melting is based on a digestive enzyme: protease. Using a thesis that he learned from a man (Chisato) in college, it's possible to shorten the time of producing the medicine, however it will still take a month. Mako Fujisaki the Valkyria is sightseeing when Chisato appears to her. Revealing to have unrequited feelings for him, Chisato requests Mako to bring him to where #1107 is. Ryōta returns with the good & bad news, although there a possibility for one of the witches can survive, but unwilling to sacrifice anyone.

Hexenjagd

Meeting Mako and Chisato who have arrived at the observatory are demanding to hand over #1107 who's in fact—Kotori. Ryōta distracts them for Hatsuna to jump on Mako from behind, but can't figure out which button to push on Mako's harness having her to slice Hatsuna. Wanting an explanation why they have to be killed, Chisato states the B-rank witches are unreasonable to live. He orders Mako to kill Neko, but Ryōta push her away and takes the hit from Mako's magic. Losing consciousness, Nanami appears in astral form to Ryōta informing that Neko used to be an S-rank witch stronger than Mako, the way to regain her power is by pressing the top button of her harness but it's a high risk; then Ryōta dies. With the girls distressed and defenseless, Mako about to finish them off, but then a group of black individuals arrive who have neutralized Mako's magic. Following the device's signal that Ryōta turned on earlier. Yet, Chisato escapes using Mako's teleportation taking Kotori along. Hatsuna had recovered and using her ability to heal; with Neko and Kazumi giving heart aid, they revive Ryōta. Hatsuna melts in the process however. Miki and the individuals introduce themselves as Hexenjagd, a group resisting the lab, stating the witches still has to die because the amoebas "drasils" inside them - the witches' true form - will eventually hatch and devour their bodies into monsters. Moreover, Kotori has an entity called the "Grane" that can destroy all humanity. They tried to capture Kotori once, but failed, causing the witches' escape and losing a comrade (Akane).

He tells Kotori how aliens were believed to be the creation of humans on Earth. His efforts to revive Rena's soul within Kotori's body somehow. Not giving up, despite the revelation, Kazumi hacks in the lab's database locating Chisato's whereabouts ne

Things to Protect

The light covers the Earth with Hexenjagd left praying for God, so Ryōta, Neko, and Kazumi go to rescue Kotori on their own. They knock Ryōta out - not wanting him to risk his life any longer. Chisato remarks how Takachiho's aim is to use "Ain Soph Aur" to reset the Earth in a whole new era. Though his only intention is to revive Rena, Kotori responds Chisato how she wants others to smile regardless of her life, so she ejects her own harness therefore cancels the light phenomenon. Mako slices Kazumi, but spares Neko as her little sister. As Nanami guides Ryōta, he finds Kotori's melting body. Listening to her final words, she asks Ryōta to tell her big brother not to harm anyone, and that she was happy till the very end. He also hears over Kazumi, as she mutters of wishing to have kids with Ryōta. Mako recalls how Chisato saved her once when exposing himself to radiation. Chisato commands to have Neko ejected until Ryōta hits him aside, shouting out Kotori/Rena's words at him.
