Alek says he's going to rescue rika, but first he wants to thank everyone who helped him in the fight. He wishes he had more time to say thank you, but he doesn't want to waste any more time. He says that he knows that ikki has been there for him all along, and that's why they've been fighting. Alek is shocked that they would do such a cowardly thing. He's sure that they're not going to do it on purpose. Alek says that they are enemies, because they are the guardians of forest. They don't fight teams that sleep in the forest, and they only fight those that have never fought against them before. They're just trying to make sure that no one gets up to mischief in the tournament final. Alek swears that he won't commit any mistakes, and he'll swear an oath to do so.
