Episode Title:
Protectors of Dreams.
Episode Description:
Yumeji and Merry take Isana to Yui and Engi so that they can meet her dream demon, Parade, who explains how Mystletainn forced her to make Isana her vessel. Merry wants to send her back, but isn't confident enough to try so with Isana's dreams at stake. Meanwhile, Chizuru confronts Iijima, who reveals his intentions to kill Parade, as well as questioning Yumeji's abilities, though Chizuru is too conflicted by her duties to Lestion to warn Yumeji or Isana. Later that day, Iijima and Mystletainn make their attack on Isana and Parade, also planning to lure out Chizuru and Lestion, but Merry and Yumeji appear to protect them. Mystletainn overwhelms Merry while Yumeji's attempt to rescue Parade is thwarted by Iijima, who reveals Chizuru had done nothing to prevent the deaths of other dream demons. As Mystletainn prepares to kill both Isana and Parade, Chizuru decides to stand in their way to protect her. Having apparently seen something interesting, Iijima and Mystletainn decide to retreat, promising to resume the battle following the exams.
