Chapter 29

**To Ea's Rescue** (絵亜救出へ *Ea Kyūshutsu e*) is the twenty-ninth chapter of Oumi Noko's manga series S Rare Soubi no Niau Kanojo.

## Summary

Patra holds the captive Ami and tongue-kisses her to find out her intentions. She discovers and relays to Lamia that Ami is working with a Hero and is trying to rescue Ea. Lamia realizes that Yurina survived their encounter and swears to destroy her and all humans who are helping her. She leaves Patra to do whatever she wants with Ami.

Meanwhile, Rebecca plays a video game with Ea and loses. A monster points out that Rebecca shouldn't be playing around, but Rebecca asserts that this is to help determine why Ea cannot summon monsters. Ea explains that it may have something to do with Rebecca's bad luck, though she observes to herself that she only summoned monsters when she was with Yurina and Daigo. Venomous Moon Jelly arrives and informs Ea that Lamia has summoned her.

While taking a shower, Yurina swears that she will rescue Ea as she is important to Daigo and, therefore, is important to her as well. Daigo calls Yurina and they prepare to invade Lamia's base.

Later, Yurina, Daigo, Haruka, Riho, and the Rankers take a train to Jinbo-Chou Station. Karasu is worried about her siblings, but Daigo assures her they are safe as they have left them with Nonoka. Even so, Karasu worries about a monster attack, bur Riho explains she has prepared for such a contingency. Honoka then presents a bag of bento she has made for everyone, but Haruka objects, stating they are taking the situation too lightly. Haruka thinks back to her loss to Lamia and considers that she didn't actually die. Rieco begins to partake of the bento and Haruka complains that she is causing a disruption. The two get into an argument as Rieco can't stand the rule-abiding type. Haruka points out that Rieco hasn't attended a single training session, and Rieco counters that practice doesn't matter as the real thing is all that counts. Rieco and the others begin to tease Daigo about his relationship to Ea, but Daigo states that, while Ea is important to him, she's not his girlfriend. Seeing that Yurina looks forlorn, Haruka asks if she's okay, but Yurina dismisses it as motion sickness. Yurina then swears to Daigo that she will give her all to rescue Ea.

The group arrive at their distination and prepare for entering the enemy base. Marimo reminds everyone of the strength of the enemy, pointing out that even Eternal Wind lost. Haruka considers revealing that "Eternal Wind" survived, but doing so might make them too relaxed. Suddenly, Mayu appears, apparently on her way to work. She recognizes the Rankers, and Riho explains she is showing some hospitality for Grizel Cafe's regulars. Mayu looks curiously at Daigo, but then heads on her way. Mayu walks by Haruka and covertly comments that she survived thanks to account deletion, but Haruka may not surive if she loses again. Startled, Haruka turns around, but Mayu has already boarded the train.
