The Nine Schools Competition begins, and Shizuku goes head-to-head with Shiori in the Speed Shooting tournament. Shiori utilizes the “Arithmetic Chain” magic sequence which allows her to perform mathematical calculations faster than a supercomputer. Shiori left her own broken family to join Airi’s team, and her determination to win drives Shizuku into a corner. Honoka and her friends nervously watch the match, but Miyuki says, “Who do you think Shizuku’s engineer is?” with a confident smile. Just as she has predicted, Tatsuya has a secret tactic up his sleeve to bring victory to Shizuku.
The real blow was having Kanou finish fourth
when she was a lock to win!
كانت الصدمة الحقيقية هي حصول كانو على المركز 
!الرابع في حين أنها كانت مفتاحنا للفوز
Schmerzhaft, dass unsere siegessichere
Kano nur den vierten Platz belegt hat.
Para Kanou, que debía ganar,
fue difícil terminar en 4to lugar.
Lo peor ha sido que Kanou terminara 4.ª
cuando era la favorita.
Kanô aurait dû gagner,
et elle finit 4e, ça nous met mal.
Era certo que a Kanou ia ganhar,
mas o quarto lugar dela foi um baque.
