A little bit over two months have now passed, and the Death March has come to an end in Canada.
"Looks like all of you have gotten stronger," said Senshi as he looked at the entire team.
"We feel a lot stronger too," said Shinobi before throwing his last rock at a snowman, which cut right through it.
"By the way, I got this for you a few miles back, Ran'ningu," said his sister as she handed him a red eye shield.
"Thanks sis," said Ran'ningu as he put the mask on his helmet.
"I told her to get one with a red eye shield since it's the color as the light you release from your new technique, it should cut down the damage your eyes take," said Senshi.
"And it gives me an idea for your new football name," said Maou with a creepy smile.
"Do I even want to know?" asked Ran'ningu.
"Your new name is BloodSheild 21," said Maou while he pointed at Ran'ningu.
"It's not as bad a name as I thought I would be," said Ran'ningu.
"Got a new name for me?" asked Chūrippu.
"How does The Rose Spear sound," said Maou with no enthusiasm in his voice or posture.
"I even picked up a new rose pink eye shield," said Chūrippu as she put an eye shield on her helmet.
"Well I'll call myself the 70-yard magnum," said Usagi as he kicked a rock several yards away.
"I think you're close enough to that tittle," said Senshi who was stunned by that kick.
"Alright, there are still two weeks left until the tournament begins, and I have one more surprise for all of you," said Maou.
"It always makes me nervous when he says he has a surprise for us," said Shinobi.
"I have scheduled a game against our parents, so we came see how far we have really come," said Maou.
"So, we finally get to see if we can beat our parents," said Ran'ningu with a series expression.
