Mio realizes how she truly feels about jousting and decides to participate in the summer tournament! Celia, the student council president, invites Mio to have tea with her so she can see how Mio really feels about jousting. After having her entry accepted, Mio goes to visit Noel's house with Takahiro. They meet Noel's younger sister who is confined to a wheelchair, Mireille. Takahiro and Mio learn about why Noel really wants to participate in the summer tournament...

Takahiro runs into Lisa by chance one day, and then learns from Reina, the student council vice president, about Lisa's past. He is then asked by her to become Lisa's begleiter. Takahiro does not know what to do, as he is also being asked by Celia and Noel. Takahiro wanders around town on their day off, only to run into the girls who are also spending their day off in different ways. Takahiro talks a little bit about the arena in which all knights wish to find themselves someday...

The girls go to Bertille's summer home to go and train for the upcoming summer tournament. This house even has a outdoor bath, but the girls work hard, sometimes having fun along the way. Takahiro and Ayako are there as support to help out. Takahiro learns why Noel wishes to fight one night, and also learns more about himself. Mio runs into Takahiro in the bath during his reflection. The girls show up looking for Mio and high jinks ensue.

On the day before the summer tournament is the Miss Winford Contest, a competition to decide the most beautiful girl in the academy. Amid the excitement around the school, a rumor spreads that Takahiro will become the winner's begleiter!

It's finally the day of the summer tournament. Takahiro, who is participating as a begleiter, tries to convey his intentions to everyone, but an emergency suddenly takes him away from the action.

Noel and Celia face off as Takahiro watches. Noel's feelings toward the younger sister she fought so hard for bring about a miracle, and as Takahiro looks on, he once again realizes the path he must take.
