The Holy Swordswoman Agrias has come far this season, and now stands to be able to win the respect and awe of Ovelia! With a potential duel with one of her own in the wings, Agrias won't let Nina's child-like appearance fool her. The strategy of instant death that got Nina to this match will prove worthless against the hardier Agrias. With Nina's best trick nullified, Agrias can easily smite the frail construct with her terrifying Crush Punch and other sword arts. Even Nina's powerful Ragnarok spell can't swing the battle in her favor - indeed, she'll be down long before she gets the chance to begin charging it. The title of Middle Champion shall, and will, be Agrias'!

Having proved herself worthy of the name of Nina (...unlike a certain predecessor of hers from two games prior), Nina the Fifth faces her toughest challenge yet. Her opponent this round isn't susceptible to the usual strategy of spamcasting Death, so Nina will have to opt for another plan. With the spell Ragnarok in hand, she has the offensive punch to fell Agrias in one shot, but can she live long enough to pull it off? Well, several castings of Slow, coupled with being faster than Agrias from the start, will ensure that Nina gets the three turns needed. It'll take planning, but the silent little girl from Sheldar can - and will - win this battle.

Nina pulls off a Ragnarok win, and prays to God that she runs into Sigurd in the finals, as her shot against Alma's minimal.
