Louise walks in on a sleeping Saito whereupon she says goodbye. The next morning, Saito wakes to find a letter in which Louise has written, “You’re fired! Just go wherever you want!” Louise decides to join the princess in war. The next day, Saito gets in his Zero fighter plane while Henrietta advances with the Tristain military to intercept the invading Albion force at the village of Talbes. Instead of flying straight into the eclipse, Saito attacks Albion’s dragon squadrons, who are unable to keep up with the plane’s speed. Saito runs out of bullets and is attacked by Wardes on a wind dragon. Tabitha, Kirche, and Louise rush to help Saito. Louise jumps from Sylphid to Saito’s plane, guided by Tabitha’s magic.
