With the knowledge that Hikari's illness may be cured if he is the last one standing in the "Fated Clash", Akina gains a sense for Vanguard under the tutelage of Nao, his senior from his part-time job. However, as if his line of thinking was foreseen, Gabwelius appears before Akina once more.
If there is a price to pay, it's the
hope that your wish may come true.
إذا كان هناك ثمن يُدفَع، فهو الأمل
بأنّ أمنيتك قد تتحقّق
Wenn es einen Preis gibt, dann ist es die
Hoffnung, dass dein Wunsch in Erfüllung geht.
À la rigueur,
on peut dire que tu perds
Se proprio c'è un prezzo da pagare,
è la speranza che il tuo desiderio si avveri.
Se tem um preço a pagar, é a
esperança de seu desejo se realizar.
Единственное наказание — 
потеря шанса на изменение судьбы.
