Leave it to Yurika to goof off while waiting to face a challenge. Currently, she was hosting another impromptu 'song concert,' swinging her sword around while singing 'Seven Deadly Sins' by Man With a Mission.

Wohohohohoh
The pain and the pleasure all come together
There is no reason why
Wohohohohoh
The pain and the pleasure all come together
There is no reason why.”

Swipe, swipe!

“I got my demons, they don't know
I'm fierce enough to let them go
It's like a fire, a stranglehold
I wish I was invincible

Hello desire, you're my old friend
But I don't need you here again
Just take a walk, go back inside
I'll see you on the other side.”

She twirled her sword in the air with all her might, slicing through the air once again.

Samayoi tou mono mo tomadoi kou mono mo
Subete no tsumi o koe

Wohohohohoh
The pain and the pleasure all come together
There is no reason why
Wohohohohoh
The pain and the pleasure all come together
There is no reason why.”

Swipe, Swipe!

“I get the feeling, down below
It's coming back to take control
It's like a fire, a stranglehold
I feel like I'm a criminal~

Yurika paused, setting her sword aside as she ran out of ideas for lyrics. Raising a hand to her chin, she contemplated what to say next.

“Someone's having fun,” a voice called out.

Foxy boi! I've made progress!” Yurika shouted happily to the masked boy across the clearing.

Sabito placed his wooden sword over his shoulder. “That's good. But don't think you can stop there. You've still got a long way to go.”

She deadpanned. “I know that. Can't you just... Let me be happy? Just once?”

Silence...
