She then continued and said, ”don't worry about the kids I'll protect them.” Rika nodded at Anita, then she knelt and spoke to her daughter.
”Hina, I need to leave for a short while. You just stay here with your auntie Anita, and auntie Michel. Be a good girl and wait for me.” After saying that, Rika was about to leave, but then Hina tightly grabbed Rika's clothes.
”Are you going to leave me behind?” When Rika saw Hina's tearful look, Rika gritted her teeth. What was she doing? Didn't she swear never to make this girl cry? Wasn't she strong enough to protect her no matter what? When Rika thought of that all her hesitation disappeared and she hugged Hina.
”It's alright Hina... I'm sorry I made you cry. I will never ever, leave you behind.

”Hina, always listen to your mother. Don't cause he even more trouble.” Niki spoke to the little girl that was being carried by Rika.
”Be a good girl okay, Hina.” Lilitth also spoke to Hina, who nodded in response to the two older sisters she liked. Once they were done saying what needed to be said, Rika with her daughter and old gigantic sword at hand headed out.
Michel even while she was busy beating up the pigman, shouted to the retreating figure of Rika. ”May you find victory in your battle!” Even though she was already outside the house, Rika heard Michel's shout and responded. ”As sure as the victory that is laid before you!”
This was what old Berdonian warriors told each other before a huge battle. Rika who decided to stay in Berdonia studied a bit of their history. She didn't understand why Michel would use this old way of saying goodbye, but for some reason this made her feel reassured somehow, as she dashed forward.
