Plot
Someone calls out to Kobayashi to wake up, but Kobayashi wants to continue sleeping until the voice tells her she is late for work. Kobayashi wakes up scared and angry, until she sees a huge temple and a mysterious figure in front of her. She then gets scared, though the child tells her it borrowed some head space to create a place to talk, but Kobayashi is even more surprised the child built a parthenon in her head but the person answers humans have a lot of empty space. Kobayashi recognizes the voice she talked to before as the Holy Sword she pulled out of Tohru, while the child further explains after it was pulled out, it was transferring inside her soul and gained sentience. Kobayashi gets afraid the Sword will become Tohru's enemy but it instead thinks Kobayashi is its mother because she brought forth his being and gets offended when Kobayashi acts like she doesn't know them. Kobayashi tells it a God created him and the Sword responds that he is its father, but Kobayashi hated those names and asks it if it wants to take Tohru's life. The Sword responds it was created to pierce any dragon it meets so it is a power of destruction but its actions depend on its wielder, though Kobayashi doesn't care what the God thinks but instead of what the Sword thinks. The Sword thinks it opinions don't matter but as they've seen her story unfold, its wish is to see her story get better, claiming it likes being inside of her. Kobayashi understands the situation now though she feels weird its been inside of her and hopes it would return to God's side. The Sword then gives her a warning telling her to be careful when entering a fight as they could both die. It asks if she wants to materialize it, but Kobayashi declines the offer but the Sword keeps begging her as she could get special skills, her body will be completely enhanced, become a warrior and solve all the trouble involving dragons but Kobayashi declines again. The reason why was because she's not the fighting type but the Sword says she couldn't avoid that situation as it would have ended in tragedy until it finally tells the truth, it wants to materialize to see the outside world, so Kobayashi agrees. Tohru enters Kobayashi's room to wake her up, but notices Kobayashi is already awake and offers to help her change but Kobayashi declines and Tohru leaves. Kobayashi asks how to materialize it and the Sword explains now that she lost her magic it will be easier for her and tells her to do the same thing with the Dragon Ball and suddenly creates an explosion in the apartment. Tohru enters in panic and gets surprised when seeing a huge hole in the wall and thinks Kobayashi did it while changing. The Sword apologizes as it can't control itself very well when it didn't sleep well as Kobayashi remarks it will never use the Sword ever again. Tohru was later able to fix the hole in the room with magic.
