Love Live! Door to the Skies - Chapter 6: Door to the Skies - Episode 4

Aina appears at the top of the tower and engages the unworldly eidolon in battle. The crew arrives on the scene, but the fighting has already caused Beobachter to fuse the concepts of school idols and battle together in its mind. The μ's members begin to sing and dance, bringing an end to the fighting and causing the eidolon to attack them instead, but the crew leaps in to protect them.

---

Unworldly Eidolon: Oh? It seems someone has sniffed us out. They must have good intuition.

They hear a chorus of battle cries, followed by the sound of weapons clashing. The ground rumbles as a blaze of flames streaks upward between the buildings.

As the soldiers begin fighting back on the ground, the unworldly eidolon deciphers that its location must have been discovered.

Unworldly Eidolon: Back to the matter at hand. I would much rather resolve this without needing to take unnecessary action. Before I cast you into the darkness, I will ask you once more.

Unworldly Eidolon: Why do you sing? Tell me.

Honoka: M-my answer's not going to change no matter how many times you ask! We won't cooperate with your scheme!

Unworldly Eidolon: Your bravery is impressive. In that case, my soldiers and I will lead you into the darkness as you wish.

Monsters surround the μ's members to prevent them from fleeing.

Honoka: Urgh!

Umi: I guess this means... it's all over for us...

Kotori: Honoka...

The monsters creep closer, reaching out threateningly toward the girls.

At that moment, dark shadows appear out of thin air, wrapping themselves around the advancing monsters.

Unworldly Monster: Uuuhn!

The next thing they know, the monsters fall limp and collapse to the ground.

Honoka: What? Huh? What happened?

Unworldly Eidolon: Hmm... It seems our guest has arrived earlier than expected.

The unworldly eidolon looks on, seemingly amused. Suddenly, a myriad of blades appear from the ground and attempt to skewer its hulking frame.

Aina: I'm sorry I took so long. I know you must have been scared. Are you all right?

Honoka: Y-yeah...

Umi: Aina... Why are you here?

Aina: I can't let anything happen to you girls. I won't allow that monster to harm you any further.

Kotori: D-does that mean we're saved?

Unworldly Eidolon: Kehehe... We meet again. I'm surprised you came, considering how you ran from me during our first encounter.

Aina: I simply chose not to fight you then. I was afraid you might have been to connected to μ's.

The monster dodges another fierce attack of blades and grins fearlessly.

Unworldly Eidolon: Kehehe... I had no idea you were concealing so much power.

Aina: I am a primal beast after all.

Unworldly Eidolon: Oho? Interesting. But do you truly think your power will be enough to defeat me, a being once hailed as a mighty warrior?

Aina: A mighty warrior, you say? Hee-hee-hee... Yes, it will be plenty.

Aina: I was bestowed with my power for the sole purpose of battling against warriors just like you!

The two opponents appear to be on equal footing. Aina's blades clash with the monster's club, sending sparks flying across the rooftop.

Beobachter: ...

Meanwhile Beobachter remains silent, watching the battle unfold.

Vyrn: Finally... We made it to the top. How many floors does this tower have anyway?

Lyria: Huff... Huff...
Is... Is everyone all right?

Hanayo: (Captain)! Lyria! Vyrn!

Rin: Y-you won't believe this! Aina's fighting that oni!

Vyrn: Wait, seriously? She must be crazy strong.

Lyria: Thank goodness... Aina made it in time...

Nozomi: I'm not so sure.

Eli: Nozomi?

Vyrn: Huh? Whaddya mean?

Nozomi: I have a bad feeling about this. That oni was... smiling.

Maki: Come to think of it, Beobachter's just been standing there watching them the whole time.

Lyria: Wait, it can't be!

Lyria concentrates on Beobachter's presence.

Lyria: It feels like the primal beast's doubts are being washed away by their fight.

Unworldly Eidolon: Kehehe... You seem to have a connection to Muse as well, more or less.

Unworldly Eidolon: So the more you use your power...

Beobachter: ...

Unworldly Eidolon: The more Muse is being linked with the concept of battle within that primal beast's mind. Kehehe!

Aina: ...!

Unworldly Eidolon: But it's already too late for you act.

Unworldly Eidolon: At this very moment, those spectral girls are disappearing...

Unworldly Eidolon: And they are being replaced with my very own soldiers.

Unworldly Eidolon: Just like this.

Vyrn: There are so many of 'em! We have to help Aina, or this is gonna be bad!

Lyria: B-but... If we fight any more in front of Beobachter, there'll be no turning back!

Beobachter: I have determined... my purpose...

Unworldly Monster: Kehe...

Monsters appear one after another, leaving the crew no time to think. (Captain) narrowly intercepts their blows.

Unworldly Eidolon: My commiserations, Muse. It seems the primal beast has attained its purpose without needing to await your answer.

Unworldly Eidolon: So what will it be? Will you continue to sing and dance in order to call forth my soldiers?

Honoka: This can't be happening!

Honoka: The townspeople were finally starting to smile!

Hanayo: They were so happy to have a dream to chase after...

Maki: The person who created that primal beast couldn't have wanted this to happen!

Rin: Is there really nothing we can do?

Nico: There has to be something! But...

Umi: What?

Kotori: What?

Eli & Nozomi: What should we do?

Honoka: ...

Amidst the clash of weapons, Honoka wracks her brain desperately to find an answer.

Before her, the phantom-like girls appear and disappear without a word.

Ghostly Girl: ...

The apparitions stare intently at Honoka. Meanwhile, Beobachter's purpose continues to take shape.

Honoka: ...

Honoka: This isn't over yet!

Just then, they hear the sound of a piano echoing though the air.

Honoka: This melody...
Come on, guys!

Nico: Huh? You seriously want to do that now?

Honoka: Yeah! It's the only thing we can do!

Umi: Sheesh... You're the only person who would think of doing that at a time like this.

Kotori: But if that's what you've decided, I don't think any of us will have any regrets. Right, everyone?

Honoka: Then let's do this!

All Eight: Yeah!

Honoka: I've been searching for the door of dreams.

Umi: I was searching for—

Eli: Our connection.

Vyrn: What!

Lyria: Huh?

Aina: ...!

Unworldly Eidolon: What! What are you doing?

The nine girls suddenly begin to dance and sing. The fighting stops as everyone's focus turns to μ's.

As if in support of the girls' decision, the powerful strumming of a guitar joins the accompaniment.

Despite the unworldly eidolon's plan to entice Beobachter to battle, there was one thing the monster could not foresee.

μ's: Yes! Believe in yourself and everyone.
Tomorrow is waiting and we'd better go.

μ's: Yes! Stars of premonition rain down in my heart.
Shine and stand with uncertainty.

Beobachter: ...

Beobachter observes μ's intently.

Beobachter: Their song... It stopped the battle...

The primal beast finally begins to understand the true power behind the school idols' song.

Unworldly Eidolon: Curse you!

The unworldly eidolon flings itself at the girls in a rage.

However, (Captain) dashes forward to intercept the strike.

Unworldly Eidolon: I won't allow you to interfere!
