At the shop, Touma tells Mei about being unsure which idea he should flesh out for his next story. A couple of his ideas are based on familiar people around him.
Thoroughly overpowered, Kento demands Calibur explain why he betrayed them 15 years ago. Calibur says he will know someday.
As Rintaro enters Liberation, Sophia and Tetsuo explain that it is a training ground where time moves differently and can put an enormous, life threatening strain on the body.
Touma thinks about how the SoL and the Megid are all fighting over books when they’re supposed to bring people happiness. He heads to the North Pole and asks Kento to tell him more about Wonder Ride Books.
Kento whisks Touma and Rintaro safely back to the North Pole to regroup. Rintaro says he will go out and look for the rainbow bubbles that foretell the arrival of Megids in order for them to exploit that. Ogami-san says he will go after Calibur.
The SoL crew are at the North Pole trying to process what’s just happened and why the people have not been saved yet. Ogami-san says none of them understand what he as a parent is going through. But Touma promises that he will save Sora.
The mysterious man that’s just arrived at the shop hops off his magic carpet. Mei thinks he’s hot. But Touma does not know who he is.
Touma and Mei are speechless at the sight of Rintaro on his blue lion. He apologizes as he read in a book about human culture that it is rude to enter a home with shoes on. Mei says coming in on a lion is just as bad.
Tassel say books are amazing things. In fact, our world today was created from a book, the Book of Ancients. That book is the source of stories, knowledge and all living things.
