A couple rookies who've just formed a contract think they have a chance against us?

Y-You little...!

She got him!

It seems that you're somewhat capable.

Damn, he's tough.

Hey, Excel.

Well, it's okay, right?

They've just formed a contract, after all.

There's no way we can lose.

Am I right?

Indeed. It looks like there isn't a need to perform synchro.

What's wrong, young contractee?

Not going to synchro?

Who are you calling "young?"

Aren't you just a kid?

Appearances can be deceiving.

Kuro-chan!

Why did that Mototsumitama choose to form a contract with someone like you?

You probably can't even perform a proper synchro, right?

I shall protect my contractee, Keita-san!

Kuro!

Kuro, can you defeat him if we synchro?

I'm not sure, but at the very least my combat abilities would definitely improve.

Okay, got it!

Synchro! Synchro!

Keita-kun, Kuro-chan...

They finally performed synchro?

Oh? The amount of Tera they have is more than I thought they would have.

Which means our trip here wasn't a waste...

Keita-san, I'm going to attack!

Okay!

How impudent!

Kuro-chan!

Even though we performed synchro.... Why?

They didn't even synchro, yet the difference in our powers is already this great!

I'm okay. Continue to maintain synchro.

Okay.

Oh? How pesky.

If a normal punch doesn't have any effect on him...

This is bad.

The spike in their Tera is...

Time to die.

Go!

Steiner!

Kuro...

I did it, Keita-san!

What did you just do?

Exceed.

Exceed?

The thing that those goons used earlier?

Those Tribal—

Talking about those Tribal Ends?

They aren't using a real Exceed.

They're just imitating the original Exceed of the Mototsumitama.

Original?

You don't even know about that?

The attack activated from the energy and Tera produced when a Mototsumitama and its contractee performs synchro

is what we call the original Exceed.

Exceed.... This is my

Exceed.

Thanks, Keita-san. It's all because you performed synchro with me.

Well...

Keita-kun...

That was surprising.

You're able to use such a powerful Exceed even though you formed a contract with someone like him.

I'm happy to have met an opponent I can mess around with.

Are you still thinking about fighting?!

There's no way I'll back off from such an interesting fight so quickly.

Keita-san, let's end this.

Okay.

Exceed, Megaexe!

Kuro!

Kuro-chan!

What happened?

What's that?

Hex Wall. The power of my Thousands.

Thousands?

How is a contractee capable of putting up a shield?

I guess you really don't know anything.

That's enough, my partner.

Unleash your full power.

Synchro! Synchro!

It took me so much effort to use Megaexe, yet...

Now isn't the time for that.

They're coming!

K-Keita-san!

Looks like your contractee used up all his Tera due to the intensive fight.

I won't show any mercy.

Exceed, Stampede!

He split?

Keita-san, step back!

Kuro!

Keita-kun!

Kuro-chan!

Now then, what should we do?

Stop it.

I want to ask them about something.

We need to teach these insolent youngsters that there's a price to pay for going against us.

Steiner!

I've already said that I want to ask them something.

I understand, partner.

I hope that you would understand.

We just took the appropriate actions against your hostility.

Young contractee, you understand, right?

You really aren't a kid?

Do you have some time to spare?

We just want to talk to you.

Talk?

We'll take you home in our car.

In return, I'd be grateful if you could treat us to a cup of tea.

The Noble One?

It's an alliance of the Mototsumitama clans in Europe.

We maintain the balance of coexistence in Europe though The Noble One.

An alliance of Mototsumitama clans?

Somehow, things seems to be getting crazier and crazier.

It has a nice color and scent.

It's Earl Grey, right?

Yes.

The English like to put milk in their tea, but I feel that Earl Gray tastes better straight.

I like it straight, too.

So, why did the two of you come to Japan?

Lately, the balance of coexistence in Japan has been so abnormal that it's bordering on the brink of collapsing.

This is something that has never happened in the world.

Is that so?

Most likely...

Steiner and I were dispatched here by The Noble One to find the source of the balance of coexistence's disturbance.

And today, we discovered this lady here.

Me?

Yes. You have a flow of Tera completely different from normal humans.

Why is Akane-san...?

Because a Mototsumitama is near her.

Is it Kuro?

Exactly.

In our experience, there are cases in which the balance of coexistence has collapsed because a Mototsumitama

became involved with someone with whom they had not formed a contract.

Well, this turned out differently from what we expected.

When did the abnormality start?

We don't know exactly when.

However, our analysis stated that it may have been sparked off seven years ago by a certain incident in Okinawa.

Okinawa?

This photo was taken by members of The Noble One who were investigating the situation in Okinawa back then.

Do you recognize this woman?

T-This is...

Can you feel it?

There is no vintage wine that has such an intoxicating taste like this.

Slowly savor and absorb six humans worth of Tera.

You're late, Mikami.

I have a job for you.

All of my subordinates are useless.

So, is the target another Mototsumitama?

Yeah. However, I need you to get rid of some garbage first.

This mark is definitely...

Mother...

It's my mother.

What did you just say?

It really is. Isn't that Auntie Maki?

That's impossible.

Mother... is already dead.

Keita-kun...

Could she be the person I saw at the station the other day?

Wait.

You said that this photo was taken seven years ago, right?

Yeah.

What's wrong with that?

This was taken half a year before her death.

Auntie Maki was still alive then.

Also, the place where the photo was taken...

Did something happen at Okinawa?

Mother was born in Okinawa.

However, if it really is my mother, why was she there?

We don't know.

The Noble One member who took this was already killed by these people.

Could it be that my mother's death is linked to the Mototsumitama?

Everything is still a mystery.

However, we are sure that something is going on behind the scenes in Okinawa.

The Noble One was unable to find any leads after that.

Lately, Tokyo has started to experience abnormal situations too.

We were dispatched here to investigate that.

It's time that we take our leave.

Oh my, there are still scones left.

Pardon us, but we need to go.

Wait!

What should we do?

We're constantly being attacked by them.

What's your problem?!

Even a contractee like you is able to perform synchro, right?

And you can use Exceed, too.

Feel free to ask me if you want to duel.

Thanks for helping us out today.

It's okay. We should be the ones apologizing for causing you so much inconvenience.

Akane-san, please take your cell phone out.

Call me if anything happens.

I will.

The tea was delicious. Thank you.

Is the woman in the photo really that boy's mother?

I don't know.

Put that aside. We have a more urgent task to attend to.

Also, that Mototsumitama interests me.

She seems to be hiding something.

Also, her contractee's Tera is...

Yes. However, it is pointless to tell him.

From Akane-san?

No, it's from our excellent subordinate.

The factory we've been looking for has been discovered.

That was quick.

We'll have to reward him with some delicious Earl Gray once we get back.

Um... Keita-san.

What's wrong?

Keita-san, as a Mototsumitama, I have to apologize about what happened to your mother.

It's not something you should apologize for.

Besides, that might not have been my mother.

But if she really is your mother, she definitely must've been forced into doing it by that Mototsumitama in the photo.

Like how I dragged you into this.

There's something I didn't mention about that photo.

The man with the mark...

He might be the one I'm looking for — the strongest man in the Shishigami clan.

The brother you're looking for?

Yes, it's most likely him.

That's why I must go to Okinawa.

I will defeat my brother and find out the truth about your mother.

This is compensation for getting you involved in this.

Keita-san, I'm sorry. You got into so much trouble just because you saved me.

You and Akane-san must stay safe.

Well, how do you intend to get to Okinawa?

Um... walk there?

Hey, Okinawa is across the sea.

What? Is it?!

I'll swim over, then.

Do you know how far Okinawa is from here?

No idea...

I'll go to Okinawa too.

Seems it'd be better for me to leave Tokyo for a while.

I can't always be causing trouble for Akane-san either.

I want to confirm it, too —

the truth behind that photo.

Keita-san...

I'm not going for your sake.

Okay.

Kuro-chan, the bath is free now.

I'll head in now!

Let's practice Exceed a bit more.

I'll go alone.

You can't fight alone.

The fragmented truth is starting to piece together, revealing itself in a new form.

If something like fate exists, right now, the gear...

...is starting to spin at a horrifying speed.

Don't you know that we are Hiyou-sama's subordinates?!

He's someone from the strongest clan in the city, the Shishigami clan!

I do.

Exceed, Tenryuufuudachou!

Unfortunately, that same Hiyou-sama is my client.

What—
