With the help of Izzy's anti-pain potion, the pain that assaulted Kazuto due to nearly losing his inamorata had decreased even more.
Although he was no longer in pain, he knew that slowly, his relationship with Niken was running low. In fact, the mark on Niken's neck began to fade as Niken slowly decided to forget about Kazuto and accept Yang Shuo as her new love.
Once Niken has married Yang Shuo and consummate their marriage, the mark on her neck will disappear without a trace, automatically cut all ties with the black knight.
Kazuto and Hokuto tried to open the portal door again, but they couldn't create a hole as easy as yesterday. They felt like whoever controls the portal door was getting stronger and made them unable to open it.
Even when they got help from Lionel and Izzy, the portal door cracks didn't change at all.
"At this rate, it's just a matter of time before we lose Niken for good."
