As Towa Amane, also known as Arthur Pencilgon, goes to his room to meet him in person, the protagonist decides to cover his face with a mask he won in a competition, much to the girl's laughter.
This is the part where Kei Uomi heads to meet them in person along with the only teammate of his who was available, Megumi Natsume, explaining to her that they are capable gamers. However, this contrasts with a scene of Sunraku wearing his mask, and Towa laughing hysterically in the hallway.
