🔔*RING RING RING*
Samantha	"The Giant Tree houses the power of Iridescent God. The Iridescent God's power can react to foreign objects in this world and eliminate them."
Samantha	"Kuskuskus... Where is the Iridescent God? How does it eliminate foreign objects?"
Samantha	"How far does the Iridescent Light reach? Does it penetrate the clouds and reach the earth? Does it penetrate the earth and reach beneath the earth?"
Samantha	"Without the Giant Tree, the light cannot reach the ground. Without the protection of the Giant Tree, the power of the iridescent clouds cannot reach it."
🔔*RING RING RING*
Samantha	"――I am the guardian of the Hot Sands and Blue Seas. The one who protects the Railway of the Sea and maintains the power of the miststone."
Samantha	"The station and the railway are still asleep. Awaken them with the power of the iridescent clouds. The end of the sea is still far away."
🔔*RING RING RING*
Samantha	"――I am the guardian of Deep Green and Magic. The one who watches over the dark bloods, and controls the lightning of transference."
Samantha	"The friends of the dwarves are scattered across the world. The Winged Ones live hidden in the Mist."
🔔*RING RING RING*
Samantha	"――I am the Guardian of Snow and Steel. The one who watches over the Wall, and keeps the darkness away."
Samantha	"The treasures that lie beneath the ice lie in the shadow of the huge railway tracks. Life wanders and death is lost, waiting at the station where time stands still."
🔔*RING RING RING*
Samantha	"――I am the Guardian of the Sorcery and Beast Gods. The one who manipulates words and minds, and breaks the barriers between races."
Samantha	"The dark stonemason crosses the barrier, the forbidden arts user lurks in the evening darkness. True demons do not choose their place."
Samantha	"Save the four remaining guardians. If the Giant Trees dies, the Guardians die. If the Guardians die, the Giant Tree dies. Send the rainbow-coloured light to the clouds."
Samantha	"Kuskuskus. The rainbow light has seven colours. There are four guardians. The numbers don't match, there aren't enough. Interesting..."
Versailles	"Were those... Samanthas?"
Queensway	"Miss Versailles saw them too?"
Versailles	"Oui, the Samanthas were talking about the Giant Tree Guardians."
Versailles	"After Mademoiselle Paddington used her magic, I was alone in a dark place for a while, where I was shown different landscapes. ..."
Vivienne	"I bet we all saw the same things. Did the Samanthas give you hints while you were moving through the space?"
Yoshino	"There were five Samantha's in total."
Putra	"Wha, not just one?"
Yoshino	"The kuskus-ing one was the same Samantha, and the rest were all different Samantha. Every time the scenery changed, a different Samantha was talking."
Putra	"What are you, Yoshino? A Samantha sommelier?"
Yoshino	"If there's such a qualification, would like to challenge it."
Islington	"I don't know about the kuskus-ing, but the other four are the Giant Tree Guardians."
Miyako	"It mentioned something a little deep. Let's record it properly. It's for the future, we have to make sure Paddington remembers it."
Islington	"Oh right, how's Paddington?"
Paddington	"......"
Islington	"...... She's still not back yet? It doesn't seem like her powers are getting out of control though, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see."
Farringdon	"Good call, Islington, if we try to force it back we'll be out of options."
Islington	"Sister Farringdon!"
Islington	"Eh? Wait what, what's going on? Why is dear sister Farringdon here?"
Farringdon	"Calm down, Islington, or you'll drain your strength even more."
Islington	"Yes but, sister Farringdon, how did you know about that?"
Farringdon	"We all had the our magic similarly depleted on our side. It varies from person to person, but I noticed that the more time passed, the less power we had."
Queensway	"What about Mary and the rest?"
Farringdon	"They are all safe. They're are all in the same place. A five-coloured Gate opened in front of me and I went through it alone. It's seeking a Divine Child's power. That's what I felt."
Islington	"That's probably the Gate that Paddington opened. It's a bit different this time. It's more like a conversation that's going on."
Farringdon	"The Iridescent God must have led us to the Guardian's Chamber."
Islington	"I hope so. It's not how I thought it would look."
Conductor	――Steel Tree's Guardian's Chamber.
Conductor	Its appearance has changed a lot, but this is the St. Iris Giant Tree. We reached here once and fought Ricardo, who turned into a monster.
Conductor	But why? Ever since I entered the thorns to reach this place, I never felt like I was heading to the same place again.
Conductor	It was the same when I reached the Guardian's Chamber. There is no signs of the room... that my mother was guarding.
Versailles	"Up there is the Mist Core of the Steel Tree. It's too big..."
Miyako	"The Guardian's Chamber is also very big. If we look closely, we can see the railway tracks, and we can get up here by Mist Train."
Yoshino	"Several train lines converge here. It looks like it's true that it's a terminal station."
Vivienne	"Hey, look. Is that... don't tell me it's a throne over there?"
Yakutsk	"What bad taste... It looks like a throne room. I don't know what kind of king would live there."
Farringdon	"The Steel Throne. It's made of the very Poison of the otherworlds."
Islington	"You're kidding...? Didn't the Mistism idiots made that up on their own?"
Mistism Cult Leader	"We didn't make it. It was made for us."
Queensway	"Mistism!"
Versailles	"I knew you were here!"
Mistism Cult Leader	"How did you manage to reach this place when you came through the closed railway? Did the Divine Child of Iridescence help you?"
Farringdon	"The Great Iridescent God guided us. To keep you evil ones away from the Giant Tree."
Islington	"What are you guys going to do with that big Mist Core? Just to be clear... Are you planning some silly scheme to Poison the world by making it your personal property?"
Mistism Cult Leader	"The idea is not so easy. This Mist Core will only return the world to what it should be."
Islington	"...... Explain, little Yoshino."
Yoshino	"Sometimes it's necessary to make an effort to treat people as if they don't speak your language."
Conductor	We don't know what kind of future the Mistism cult has in store for us. However, what you are trying to do is to make people suffer. You want to kill Giant Trees, pollute this world with Poison, and turn it into a Phantom Mist-infested world of death.
Conductor	You said you could live amongst them? The chosen ones of the Mist will not die even if they are attacked by the Phantom Mist.
Mistism Cult Leader	"That is true. Unlike the Children of Sunshine, we can live in the Poison."
Mistism Cult Leader	"We will not have our power sucked by that Mist Core. We are even accepted by the Poison of the otherworlds."
Conductor	That's not true. Have you forgotten your own teachings?
Conductor	Since when did Mistism start worshipping things from the outside world? Are you not trying to pretend that not only the Mist, but also Steel, machines and even the power of the Iridescent God are yours?
Yoshino	"As expected of Shashou. Your tsukkomi role hit the good parts."
Yakutsk	"Which parts are the good parts?"
Yoshino	"The Poison of the otherworld comes from Youko's world. It must be different from the Mist that Mistism religion has been believing in."
Miyako	"And Mistism has also invaded the Eisengrad Giant Tree. The Giant Tree has the blessing of the Iridescent God. Can they call themselves the Children of Mist when they are trying to use that blessing?"
Yoshino	"To be honest, even the Steel Tree is part of Iridescent God. It was originally a Giant Tree."
Yakutsk	"When you put it that way, I don't know what this woman wants anymore. The Mistism cult wasn't chasing after the Poison of the otherworlds from the beginning. From the looks of it, she probably doesn't even know Youko and the others very well..."
Vivienne	"Bored and flirtatious. Like a spoilt child who thinks everything is convenient?"
Islington	"Vivienne, good point there. That's exactly what it is. It makes me laugh that she's able to gain followers this way."
Mistism Cult Leader	"It's just that we can now see what we couldn't see before. The Children of Mist ruled the Giant Tree since ancient times."
Putra	"Liar! Of course that is impossible!"
Youko	"Change the future and it will be true. You'll see clearly afterwards whether it's impossible or not."
Islington	"Youko...!"
Youko	"Eveyone of the SSS, how really stubborn you all are. Even though you've been weakened that much, you've managed to break through my art and reach this point."
Mistism Cult Leader	"You are, Chilren of Otherworlds..."
Youko	"Happy to see you. My name is Youko. I tried to remove these people from here, but I failed."
Youko	"Ah, don't worry. I am on the side of you Mistics."
Youko	"We are impressed by the power of the Mistism religion. You may be able to take the Steel Throne and the Mist Core in your hands. If you could achieve that, we would like to serve you."
Islington	"Ugh, surely they buy what you say. Seriously, what are you talking about? Even the Mistism cultists wouldn't believe such a blatant lie."
Youko	"It's not a lie. If necessary, I will fight against the Divine Child of Iridescent Clouds♪"
Youko	"Besides, I know how to take complete control of the Mist Core."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Is that true?"
Youko	"Yes, it is true. While I do not know how to control it, I know what is needed to complete it."
Youko	"You have learnt how to hoard the power of the Mist Core and even how to make it spit out its Poison. But you don't know how to aim. You don't know how to make them react to your words... is that right?"
Mistism Cult Leader	"...... Who are you really?"
Youko	"I am a researcher from the otherworld. I've been researching Poisons and the weapons that harness their power."
Youko	"Alma, that weapon please."
Alma	"Yes, Lady Youko."
Mistism Cult Leader	"......"
Youko	"That weapon have the same effect as the Steel Tree's Mist Core on those it slashes against. The reason why that Divine Child named Islington has less magical power than the others is because Alma injured her arm with that weapon."
Youko	"I am not the Chosen One of the Mist. But I will not succumb to the Mist or the Poison."
Youko	"That's because I can harness their power."
Islington	"Mistism, you are our enemy. We're going to start taking you down."
Islington	"But that vixen bitch is against me and you. What she says is a mixture of truth and lies. If you believe her, bad things will definitely happen."
Islington	"We cannot tolerate you Mistism cultists. But we will try as hard as we can to negotiate. Just don't try to make Mist Core do anything."
Islington	"It's not good for you guys. Absolutely."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Shut up. It's none of the Children of Sunshine's business."
Mistism Cult Leader	"That's enough, Youko. We understand almost everything about controlling the Mist Core. We, the Children of Mist, can give the Steel Tree its full potential."
Mistism Cult Leader	"But there is one thing you said that bothers me."
Youko	"Yes, you can say anything you want."
Mistism Cult Leader	"...... Is it possible to make the light of the Mist Core reach all the Giant Trees if we are able to aim it?"
Youko	"...... Yes. It is possible. With a single blow, you can turn all the remaining Giant Trees into Steel Trees."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Show me how to make them react only to my words. The other preparations are already in place."
Youko	"Very well. It's very simple and I will teach you before they stop us."
Youko	"You must inject dark power into the Steel Throne, not the Mist Core. Apply a strong power into it, just as you do to the Railway Seekers."
Youko	"Transform the power of Iridescent God into an alien substance. You must perform the Dark Iron Injection into the Steel Throne. Once successfully controlled, the Mist Core reacts to the Lord of the Steel Throne."
Youko	"All Mist Core and altar types must have been touched. So.... have you touched the Throne yet?"
Mistism Cult Leader	"...... O' Child of Otherworld. You are welcome to the Children of Mist."
Youko	"I am honoured."
Islington	"Mr. Conductor, I'll stop her!"
Conductor	――No. Stay away from them.
Islington	"Why!? She's going to take over Mist Core if we don't!"
Conductor	Of course we want to stop them. But if we engage now, we won't be able to stop the Mist Core.
Conductor	What's worse is that Throne. There are disturbing forces all around.
Farringdon	"The Steel Throne is already reacting to the Mistism cultist's magic. If you get close to it, it will suck all the magic out of you instantly."
Farringdon	"So it is true that it is in its final stages..."
Islington	"Oh no..."
Youko	"Ufufufufu... It's a tremendous force. This really can kill all the Giant Trees in one blow."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Excellent. The Throne, which has so far shown no reaction, is about to accept me."
Mistism Cult Leader	"I can see... the future. All five Giant Trees will be ours, and the world will be shrouded in Mist. The Children of Sunshine will be purified by Poison, and become our servants!"
Youko	"...... Ignorance is a terrible thing. Everything can be conveniently interpreted. Therefore, it is easy to be deceived."
Youko	"Alma, get ready. That woman is finished."
Alma	"Yes Lady Youko."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Steel Throne, feed on my power. Including the Mist Core itself, unleash all the power in this castle!"
Yoshino	"Serious Dark Iron Injection, was Youko telling the truth?"
Miyako	"The Mist Core is responding properly too, the whole Guardian's Chamber is filled with her power..."
Vivienne	"Impossible. There's no way a human's body can withstand that much magical power."
Vivienne	"She's converting dark power and Poison into her own magical power. It's very forceful. She can't force different magical powers together and still achieve that power."
Farringdon	"......"
Farringdon	"...... That person is not qualified."
Islington	"Sister Farringdon?"
Farringdon	"That throne chooses its people. No matter how much power anyone has, they cannot become one with the Giant Tree if the throne refuses them."
Farringdon	"What is needed is the power of the iridescent clouds. Not the power of darkness."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Ggh... WHY!? WHY WON'T YOU DO WHAT I SAY!?"
Islington	"She's turning into a monster..."
Farringdon	"She couldn't stand it, that Mistism cultist was rejected by that Throne and by the Mist Core. It was deemed 'foreign'."
Farringdon	"A foreign body is a foreign body. It changes its appearance into something it deserves."
Farringdon	"She will not survive."
Islington	"Don't take it for granted. She's a human being, you know?"
Islington	"This is not the peace the Iridescent God Iris seeks. What the hell is the Steel Tree? Why does the Guardian's Chamber have such power?"
Islington	"Is this really the Giant Tree of St. Iris? Is this where we've always dreamed of a Guardian living?"
Islington	"The Giant Tree is going to destroy the world just because its Guardian is gone? It's going to turn all life into steel, even other countries?"
Islington	"It shouldn't be like this..."
Paddington	"The throne will not accept her. It will return to her with all the power she has poured into it."
Islington	"What is wrong with you, my little sister!? Why do you say that with such a nonchalant look on your face!?"
Islington	"Wake up and open your eyes, Paddington! My little sister is not that easily taken over!"
Queensway	"Lady Islington..."
Islington	"I don't know who you are, but you can't use Paddington's body to do whatever you want."
Islington	"It is true that a Divine Child listens to God. Sometimes even speaking for them. But this is not what I would call speaking on behalf of the Divine Child."
Paddington	"......"
Paddington	"This one carries the word of the Iridescent God to the world. We need this Divine Child's power to protect the world."
Paddington	"Divine Children of St. Iris. Now is the time to fulfil your duty. The Mist Core, which has absorbed evil power, can be filled with righteous power."
Islington	"Righteous power...?"
Paddington	"It is the power of iridescent clouds. Divine Children are not the only one with that power."
Conductor	The power of Train Knights. The Steel Tree sucks the power of all the Train Knights here. It is probably converting it into evil power because of the Poison.
Conductor	Then let us purify it. Then the power of the Mist Core will be right and it will regain its power as the Giant Tree instead of the Steel Tree.
Paddington	"To purify it, we need the Divine Children's power, and if we put the Divine Children's power into the throne and counteract the Mist Core's Poison, we can transform the Mist Core's evil power into righteous power."
Paddington	"The Mist Core is trying to release Poison again. It has set its sights on the four Guardians, and will soon release the light of destruction."
Conductor	That means, we should purify the Mist Core before it releases the light of destruction?
Conductor	...... If we fail, the Giant Trees of all of Iris Cloud will perish, she meant.
Farringdon	"Let's do it, the three of us together might be able to cleanse the Mist Core."
Islington	"Four of us, don't forget about Paddington."
Farringdon	"But Paddington isn't able to do things like Injecting magic..."
Islington	"You won't know until you try! Thanks to whom did you get to this point, dear sister!?"
Farringdon	"Islington..."
Farringdon	"Yes... my apologies, Islington, the four of us will join forces."
Paddington	"......"
Paddington	"The Giant Tree also chooses its Divine Children. Imperfect power can be Poison from within."
Mistism Cult Leader	"...... I will not let that happen. The Steel Tree, this castle is mine."
Mistism Cult Leader	"Children of Mist, we are the chosen ones who live with the Phantom Mist! We will not yield to the power of the Children of Sunshine!"
Islington	"All Train Knights. Before we begin our big task, please do one thing for me."
Islington	"Protect Mr. Conductor and Paddington with your lives till death. There's no future for this world if we don't stop her."
Islington	"Let us all fight to the very end. What are Train Knights for? What's the Special Steel Squad for? If we lose here, our world ends."
Queensway	"Of course. We will fight to the end."
Versailles	"All for world peace."
Islington	"FOLLOW ME! VICTORY AND PEACE TO THE ALLIED FORCES!"
