Stigma of the Wind: 1x20

Jade Afterimage

Kazuma questions Bernhardt about Lapis and denies that the girl is Tsui-Ling, whom Bernhardt sacrificed to a demon. Bernhardt in turn, replies that the girl Lapis is what remained of Tsui-Ling whom Kazuma failed to protect due to his lack of power. As Kazuma attempts to attack Bernhardt, Lapis deflects the blow and shows her power as a “Swordsmaster” by slicing in half the building they were in. Kazuma saves Ren, Ayano, and Kirika but disappears soon after. Back at the Kannagi home, Kirika informs them that a new Pandemonium has appeared and has granted “class changes” to some of its players. Meanwhile, Kazuma, brooding over the happiness of his past with Tsui-Ling, resolves to kill Bernhardt and Lapis.
