The Loneliness of the Chosen One

Synopsis

Leaving Reiga behind, the twin demon generals Antera and Santera appear before Hyuga and the others as they climb toward the summit. Hyuga and Ryoma order Lakshu to hide that the enemy has appeared and send her on toward the summit. And, mindful of how Soma is consumed, they decide to don their Shakti and fight in staggered turns. But unable to use their special techniques as they wish, the two are toyed with by the enemy's attacks. Meanwhile, Shurato, sensing something off about Lakshu's manner, presses her and learns that Hyuga and the others let him escape from the enemy. He bristles at being protected at the cost of his comrades' sacrifice. Lakshu urges him to endure that feeling for now, in order to obtain the Shakti of Brahma.
