Plot/Synopsis

Saito has been revived, but his runes have faded away. Louise is worried since Saito is now no longer her familiar. Agnès informs Saito and Louise they are being summoned by the Queen while the school was celebrating the ending war with Albion. On the journey, the three are attacked by Sheffield, who is revealed to be the familiar of a Void mage. At the castle, Henrietta gives Saito a document that would make him a knight and effectively a noble. Saito declines because of his lack of Gandalfr abilities. He remembers the Elf's name: Tiffania Westwood who saved him. Derflinger tells them where they may find her. That night, while worrying about recent events, Louise finds Saito on the balcony. She tells him that she is afraid of him leaving again, especially with the disappearance of the runes. He reassures he will not leave despite the absence of their contract. However, when he tries to make out with her, she blows him up, and the next day, makes him follow her carriage on foot.
