In this chapter, Ruge breaks the rules of the previous chapter and begins to hunt for Nemo. He realizes that he has been waiting patiently for Nemo's return, and he realizes that Nemo is more daring than he looks. He asks who gave him permission to use his body like that, and the answer is that he is too weak to defeat the beasts. He tells Ruge that if he were to be killed, he would be done too, so he has to take action to protect himself. Ruge tells him that strength is everything in this world, and that he will lend him his strength if he needs it.
