Leopard decides to enter herself and Haru into a tournament to lure out Jigsaw, also explaining to Haru how overusing the incarnate system can bring him closer to darkness.

The next day, Haru decides to talk to Chiyu, who had started participating in battles with Seiji, swearing to take back what Seiji had stolen from her. As Haru analyses what information he had learnt so far, who deduces from Jigsaw's actions that Seiji was using an illegal brain implant chip to hide from the matching lists.

#2 - Imagination
Accel World - Season 1 - Episode 16
Raker explains to Haru that although he had lost his wings, he may be able to fly if he learns to use the 'incarnate system', which allows avatars to use certain powers through their will power alone. Later that night, Raker explains how her jumping ability led to an obsession to want to fly, leading her to ask Kuroyukihime to cut off her legs. As the training begins, Raker first tasks Haru with climbing up the large tower where Raker's abode is, which proves difficult when the changing field turns the tower into metal. However, Haru soon starts to use his will power to learn how to pierce into the metal, also taking into consideration what Kuroyukihime told him about his speed. On the 7th day, Haru finally puts what he had learnt to practise and reaches the top of the tower. The next day, Raker meets up with Haru in real life to give him her armament, Gale Thruster, with Haru promising to regain his flight using his own power so he can return it back to her some day.
