Another switch of scenery.
Misaki Shokuhou, Seria Kumokawa, and Ayu Mitsuari were deep beneath the forest that reminded one of Oregon. The large tree branches, the scattered lakes, and misty mountains would speak for themselves, being a nice change of pace for the last one that they had which was about grim topics about the supernatural.
Together, they were accompanied by Timothy Jackson "Tim" Drake — Robin, Dr. Stephen Strange, Clea Strange, and Bats. Tim in turn was having casual chats with the three girls along the way as they trek their way into the woods.
"...So how exactly is there a forest around here, is what I would like to ask, but considering how weird this dimension is, I think this could be compared to how one's mind would tend to shape one's environemnt in a sense, is what I get right?," Shokuhou sported a curious expression.
"Yeah well, that's one theory that could apply to this place. This dimension is known for having a bunch of realms that show many different types of environments," Robin said with a smile.
"But it is not just Touma Kamijou's will that affects this place, there are also the dragons to consider who lurk around each different sector and made it their own. The dragons here are quite the territorial bunch based on my personal experiences," Dr. Strange mused to himself.
"Speaking of dragons...," Kumokawa look up to spot gigantic dragons that were greatly reminiscent of Boyd's forest dragon in terms of physical appearances, flying through the skies in tight formation. "There are quite a lot of them lurking around these parts."
"Yeah, and these dragons are no push-overs either when it comes to defending their territory like the apex predators that they are," Bats said in a postive tone.
"Strange-sensei, Clea-sensei, just how much further until we finall reached Kamijou-san?," Mitsuari asked.
"Oh not to worry my dear," Clea sported a smile, looking towards the vast clear horizon and landscape. "We're already here."
What the three young girls found for themselves was a wide open area of grass. And they would see Touma Kamijou and IT, accompanied by at least four gigantic dragons with a different variety of colors which signified their nature to be in relation to the four elements of the world.
The giant dragon related to the element of water, sporting the skin color default of rich royal blue that evokes the mysterious depths of the sea, known by the name of Aqua — Dragon Goddess of Water.
The giant dragon related to the element of earth, sporting the skin color default of green-brown that reminds one of the grass and soil, known by the name of Terra — Dragon Goddess of Earth.
The giant dragon related to the element of fire, sporting the skin color default of orange that would signify a flame that would relate to calcium chloride and whose skin color would change into other forms of color that would signify other forms of the flame in random happenstances or in the cases of emotion, known by the name of Ignis — Dragon Goddess of Fire.
The giant dragon related to the element of air, sporting the skin color of blank white as if denoting the lack of any color, , known by the name of Aeris — Dragon Goddess of Air.
"Hm? Ah! Master Strange, everyone, how pleasant of you all to join us at this hour," IT sported a simple smile at the approaching individuals. "The Imagine Breaker is simply performing the warm up exercises that are to be prescribed for this hour in case anyone was wondering."
"That I can definitely tell, Lord IT," Dr. Strange nodded, glancing at Kamijou from a few meters away.

Kakero! Spider Man Toei Theme with English Lyrics
"...Ah."
The three young girls: Misaki Shokuhou, Seria Kumokawa, and Ayu Mitsuari would slowly begin to gasp in shock, with their eyes slowly widening and with their cheeks blushing into shades of red, followed by impressed and awed expressions as they see the physical appearance of the spiky-haired young man who was performing his training from a few meters away.
The young man just so happen to be shirtless!
Not just that, but upon closer inspection, he appears to be quite muscular and have a well-built physique, having abbs that could be found from the lower torso. One would think that he was a professional body builder due to all of that muscle. The sweat in his body and brow denoting that he had been working out for so many hours that may not line up with their exact timeframe due to the metaphysical functions of this dimension.
Kamijou was presently performing a set of physical techniques that allowed him to flow in a natural manner. He would employ the use of Tai chi, using his arms outstretched and forming various positons, from front to back, as the water throughout the soil would materialize and form various shapes, and would continue to grow exponentially or recede to his discretion. And the waters would be use to splash upon what appeared to be ninjas with black uniforms and masks, with a red foot symbol sporting from their chest.
One ninja attempted to strike at Kamijou with his sword, only for springs of water to come out of the soil and blast the ninja away and landed straight towards two of his fellow ninja, knocking them out and dispersing like mere illusions. Another ninja would try to use his sword to aim for the neck, jumping from the air, only for him to be firmly denied by Kamijou as he sent a mini-tidal wave at the ninja, sending him and many other ninjas crashing towards one another, dispersing like illusions. Large balls of water would begin to be thrown in calculated positions, creating splash-like effects that managed to send many of the ninjas tumbling towards the ground due to the pressure of the hits.
And as Kamijou disperses the large balls of water from all directions, he would begin to switch styles and employ the use of Chow Gar, as he begins to use his feet to rumble the ground and form solid boulders of rock that would be sent to various locations, knocking many of the ninjas out cold and dispersing like illusions. Then he would use the surface of the ground to launch himself a few meters into the air and peform another style and employ the use of Bagua, spinning around and creating huge gusts of wind that would send the ninjas off from multuple directions.
Eventually, he would perform another style which was Northern Shaolin, clenching his fists and firing a barrage of flames that managed to knock out multiple ninjas senselessly through the air and land on several directions, dispersing like illusions.
Then, Kamijou makes an approriate landing and punches the ground, shifting it for many ninjas who would crash near to each other and knocking them down senselessly. And as he slowly rises from the ground, multiple shurikens were sent his way, only for them to be firmly denied by telekenitcally raising several ground barriers and using the position of the ninjas to shift it, launching them all to the air and crashing to each other in a calculated fashion.
A sword would suddenly strike at Kamijou, only for it to be denied as he grabs the edge of the blade and punches the ninja with a mean right hook, crashing towards his fellow ninja. Another ninja would raise his sword, only to be denied by Kamijou who parried with the stolen blade and performed a kicking manevuer to the face which sends him tumbling to the ground. The blade in turn would be thrown away to the side by Kamijou, and would use the metal on the blade to create spinning shurikens through the use of hand motions, sending them towards the ninjas who would be struck from their shoulders in a non-lethal fashion as it hit their clothes, sticking them to the ground, and would be knocked out by Kamijou by bending the earth around him to form solid rock formations to hit them in the head.
Two ninjas would try to raise their swords towards Kamijou from the back, only for it to be denied as they were knocked out by the raising of both fists in a back handed, hitting their faces from both sides of the shoulder, and knocking them out and dispersing into illusions.
And with that, all of the ninjas which had numbered up to about 500,000 have been defeated, with Kamijou beginning to breathe in and out, taking the fresh wind that would blow towards his direction.

Dr. Strange would take a glance towards the three young girls, sporting an amused expression that lasted for a few moments before uttering.
"Young ladies."
"H-Huh."
The aforementioned three would turn towards Dr. Strange, who they noticed was sporting an amused expression. The same expression was more or less present on Clea, Batts, and Robin who were looking at them as well, making the three girls more self aware that they had been staring at Kamijou, specifically his body for the past few moments. Well that and they were honestly impressed with the variety of fighting styles that the spiky-haired young man had managed to employ.
"There's um...something from your mouth over there," Dr. Strange pointed out, gesturing to his chin.
At that point, the three young girls would realize that they were drooling and sporting dreamy expressions as they would wipe it off of their mouths and fixing themselves accordingly.
"Hmmmm. It would appear that the Imagine Breaker has gained three new admirers since the last time he has visted us," Aqua sported an amused expression.
"Now that you mentioned it, dear sister, that has been a daily occurence that seem to define our beloved user," Ignis sported an amused expression.
"Touma!," Dr. Strange called out to Kamijou who took noticed him from afar. "Dig fast!"
All of a sudden, a sports drink bottle would materialize into the air for a few feters, dropping to the ground, with Kamijou catching it with his left hand and inspect the bottle for himself.
Gatorade Fierce Orange Thirst Quencher Sports Drink, 12 oz, 12 Pack Bottle.
Kamijou would smile, saying "Thanks, sensei," before opening the tightly fit orifice and begins to drink the refreshment.
"And so comes another lesson for today, young ladies," Dr. Strange sported a smile, looking towards the three young ladies who were sporting curious expressions. "It is time for a couple of physical exercises for today as a continuation of our lesson."
"...Ah," Shokuhou sported a grimaced and twitching expression, gulping in turn. She would look towards Kumokawa who was sporting a confident smirk and Mitsuari who was sporting a curious expression.
"What's the matter with you, gold digger? Do you have a problem about what Strange-sensei had just said?," Kumokawa asked.
"T-That's not the case. Of course, of course, I'm perfectly fine with such activity. Oh-ho-ho-ho!"
Shokuhou tried to show her more confident and elegant side, putting her hands to her waist and making the iconic ojou-sama haughty laugh in order to back up her words.
But little does she realize that she would regret this in the next few moments later.
