With the unexpected help from Class VII, Fritz made sure Kairi got out of the range of fire. Fritz apologises for his missteps, but Kairi insists that they were able to defeat the opponent because Fritz was with here him and doesn't mind that Fritz judged as him incapable of his appearance. Fritz admired the strength of the branch campus students even more thanks to Kairi's heartfelt words.
