Overview

As Raki travels towards Pieta, the place in which the fray venues - Clare reveals that she only allowed her legs to awaken, granting her a massive increase in speed, in order to keep up with Rigardo's frightening speed. However, her speed is uncontrollable, allowing Rigardo to regain the upper hand in the battle. Rigardo, excited at the prospect of a worthy opponent since Isley had thrashed him, begins to take the fight seriously and enjoy it. Raki arrives, and witnesses the partially awakened Clare. Determined to avenge Jean's ostensible death, Clare releases dangerous amounts of energy, and eventually slashes Rigardo into pieces as Jean regains consciousness.
