## Summary

Continuing on from the last episode, Siesta arrives at the scene piloting a big humanoid robot in order to rescue Kimihiko. When asked by Siesta why Hel is doing all of this, she answers that she's merely following what's written in the Sacred Writ. So, Siesta has Kimihiko ride in the back of her on the machine and they proceed to fight against Hel riding on top of the monstrous Betelgeuse. In the end, Siesta ejects Kimihiko out of the machine and crashes it into the monster. Although injured, Siesta is thankfully alright. However, their happy reunion is brief as Hel turns out to be still alive. Although during this encounter Hel's dealt with by Siesta, she manages to escape thanks to the help of someone named Chameleon.

Time passes by and they stay in a hotel so Siesta can recover from her injuries. While going out on a shopping trip, Kimihiko runs into a girl sleeping in a wooden box. Checking up on the girl, the girl awakens and claims that she's going to be attacked. Kimihiko then asks who she's going to be attacked by, the girl claims it's by him. Kimihiko manages to calm the girl down and learn her name Alicia. They then talk about Alicia's backstory and Kimihiko invites her back to the hotel where, Siesta immediately calls Kimihiko a lolicon. The group then talks about what to do with Alicia and ultimately it's decided that Kimihiko will take on the job as Siesta is out of commission due to her injuries. They're then visited by Fubi who informs the group that Jack the Ripper has been resurrected and something about the Eye of Sapphire.
