12. Nanashi, Chief of Luberia!

Now with Dorothy on their side, there lacks two more members to incorporate team MÄR which, according to Snow, will defend MÄR-Heaven in the Cross Guard's stead. On their way to Hild continent, Ginta & co. are ambushed by Luberia, MÄR-Heaven's most prestigious thief guild. Therefrom they meet and ally with Luberia's captain, Nanashi, whom turns out to be seeking after a man from Chess responsible for the assault at Luberia's base fort just before the war. In the faraway Lestava castle, the news of Ian's punishment for disobedience to command reaches him, his girlfriend Gido (also his companion on the search for Ginta) is to be executed in his place. Meanwhile on Earth, Ginta's mother is depressed about his absence, but Koyuki comes over daily to relieve her with the experience she has via her counterpart, Snow.
