In a flashback, Kal-El recalls his time when he was still the crown prince of Balsteros, Karl La Hire. Later that night at dinner, the students meet the seemingly unfriendly Ignacio and wonder why he's even attending the school. The admiral has the students practice dogfighting and shooting, despite the protests of the nobility students' instructor Sonia Palez that they're not ready yet. Nanako tells the others she heard a rumor that Karl La Hire was on the island and had a revenge plot against Nina Viento, but everyone jokingly dismisses the rumor, but it clearly makes Kal-El uncomfortable...
