The curious part of Hizuki filed Rei's commentary away for later consideration and further investigation. The parts of Hizuki that weren't that part were all occupied with trying to not get killed by these monsters. The Detention Club's mysterious leader was, of course, correct; the Daybreak had never encountered a foe this clever before, having mostly fought the pittance of miseria that appeared in the City of Light and the weaklings that spawned in Hibusa overnight. 

Daybreak's wings flared again as she kicked off the ground. She threw her weight upward, pivoting around her captive weapon in a way that might've wrenched it free from a less determined opponent. Retrieving Folkvangr, however, wasn't her objective. The light girl let go, sailing into the air feet first. She tucked her limbs in, turning the maneuver into a somersault that would land her behind the creature. As she reached the apex of her jump, a hexagonal shape appeared in midair below her.

Hizuki unfurled herself and fell through her gate. Additional armor appeared around her, rapidly unfolding from high-tech boxes that had appeared on her arms, legs, and back. Her wings folded in and integrated with the extras coating her from head to toe in a bulky powersuit, easily adding a foot to her height. She wielded no weapons, but the forearms held glowing lines reminiscent of her normal spear - which had rapidly disassembled itself and seemingly disappeared. When the new armor struck the ground, it landed with enough force to crack the pavement.

With her newly-deployed crushing strength, Daybreak's armored fist smashed forward into the undead tengu. She didn't stop there, however, letting the momentum carry her forward into a pinning charge. Her goal was to bring the creature to the ground and smash it to bits there; if she couldn't outmaneuver it well, she always had more options.
