Summary
Numbered as the twenty-sixth chapter, this piece runs under the English heading Time for the Master, given in Japanese as Shisho no Jikan. It debuted in the combined sixth and seventh issue for 2013, hitting shelves in early January of that year, and later anchored the start of the fourth tankobon. The archived page holds the chapter's publication figures and appearance list rather than a summary of its plot.

Kaede Kayano and Yuma Isogai round out the roster. Since the wiki logs only who shows up rather than what unfolds, the story's individual moments are not recorded here.
Notes
The chapter covers nineteen pages and links Time for "L" and "R" ahead of it with Overcoming Shortcomings in Time after it. As the lead chapter of the fourth volume, it marks a fresh compilation break in the run. The source assigns no anime episode to this installment.
