Summary
Teito begins his special training lesson using Castor's Frau dolls. He is tasked with running a lap of the Church, and beating at least one doll. When he fails, Teito is eager to try again. Haruse and Kuroyuri watch Teito train from a distance, and plan their attack with Haruse wanting to attack now, but Kuroyuri biding his/her time.

When Teito finally returns to his room, Hakuren spots the sklave brand on his back as he changes, and feels guilty for his insults of "elementary school kiddie" as Teito, as a sklave, may never have gone to school. When Teito apologises too, and questions Hakuren's decision to join the Church, Hakuren tells Teito why he wanted to become a Bishop, revealing his past with Frau. Teito trains with Castor the next day, and is rewarded with a professional Baculus when he succeeds. Hakuren arrives on scene to give Burupya, who had been lonely, to Teito, and Castor invites Hakuren to join in since he had been watching.

As the two students make their way back to their room, they are attacked by an enormous Wars, being controlled by Warsfeil Kuroyuri. The Wars launches for Teito but he (Teito) is pushed out of the way by Hakuren, who takes the blow but is knocked out the window. Teito then throws himself out the window in effort to save Hakuren but both are caught by Frau who then uses the scythe to destroy the Wars. Frau then realises that members of the Imperial army, Kuroyuri and Haruse have infiltrated the Barsburg Church.
