"...... Gh, why. Why can't I control my powers?" |

"I will not stop here. I will surely take the foggy kingdom, and the foggy world for my own..." |
![Story Queensway.png](/images/b/bc/Story_Queensway.png) Queensway |
"Now there are no more obstacles in our way! There will be no new Phantom Mist!" |
![Story Miyako.png](/images/2/21/Story_Miyako.png) Miyako |
"The Throne's unusual reactions have also subsided. Now we just need to see if the Divine Children's magic can be properly captured." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"It will be fine. Mr. Conductor will be able to connect our power too." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Now, come over here, Paddington!" |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"......" |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Hmm, guess she's not back yet then..." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Never mind then! Let's hold hands together for now!" |
![The Power to Save the World.jpg](/images/a/a0/The_Power_to_Save_the_World.jpg) |
Paddington is unresponsive, but Islington did not care, grabbed her sister's hand and pulled her towards the Steel Throne. |
Paddington did not resist and stood in front of the Throne, still being pulled by her sister's hand. |
Islington |
"Listen, Paddington, you can't take your hands off me, okay? We're going to put all our strength into this." |
Paddington |
"......" |
Islington |
"Don't think you can't do it, do it even if you can't. You're already not normal. You got us here. You opened doors. You've brought us the voices of weirdos." |
Islington |
"You know what? You are already a Divine Child of Iridescent Clouds. You used your powers to save the world in the Guardian's Chamber. This is not something that just anyone can do, you know?" |
Paddington |
"......" |
Islington |
"When this is over you will go back to normal. You'll have to report back to our father and mother." |
Farringdon |
"Islington, let's get started." |
Islington |
"Mhm..." |
Farringdon |
"Lord Conductor too, are you ready? Let's pour our Divine Children's power into the throne." |
Conductor |
Let's begin. We'll make sure it succeeds. |
Us four Divine Children surrounded the throne and offered our prayer to save the world. The Throne responded immediately, sending more and more five-coloured light into the huge Mist Core at the top. |
Five-coloured light. This light is generated when Paddington uses her powers. |
Paddington also used her powers. I can feel it even with my eyes closed. |
Islington did not give up. She believed in her incompetent fifth sister, Paddington, to the very end, and made her stand next to her as the Divine Child who would save the world. She kept her standing. |
Even if she never regains consciousness, even if she never calls her "big sis" again, Islington stood next to her sister as her big sister and supported her. |
――The five-coloured light enveloped the entire huge Mist Core. |
The Guardian's Chamber is filled with righteous power. The Train Knights' physical condition are restored, and Gates open all over the hall. |
![Story Mary.png](/images/8/82/Story_Mary.png) Mary |
"This light is..." |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"Looks like Conductor's team did it." |
![Story Blackfriar.png](/images/5/54/Story_Blackfriar.png) Blackfriar |
"It's kind of strange. Rather than having my power sucked out of me, it's like I'm one with the Steel Tree..." |
![Story Batu.png](/images/1/1c/Story_Batu.png) Batu |
"I have the same feeling. I don't remember using any magic." |
![Story Khabarovsk.png](/images/8/8d/Story_Khabarovsk.png) Khabarovsk |
"It's a reaction to the power of iridescent clouds. It's a power given to all of us Train Knights." |
![Story Mary.png](/images/8/82/Story_Mary.png) Mary |
"The way is clear. Everyone, get ready." |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"All ready." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"......" |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"The Mist Core will not stop. From now on, the Mist Core will release its power towards each Giant Tree." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Oh no! You mean our power wasn't enough?" |
![Story Farringdon.png](/images/c/c8/Story_Farringdon.png) Farringdon |
"Not true, Islington. It is not the Poison's power that will be released. It is our power... Iridescence's power." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"The Mist Core has been purified by the right forces. The Giant Trees that have been bathed in light will also have their Poisons removed and regain their power." |
Finally, the Mist Core of the Steel Trees glowed. The light was too dazzling to look at directly, but it flew in various directions and drew lines in the sky. |
If this is the power of Poison, the world would have ended. However, what was released now was unmistakably the power of iridescence. The light with healing power scattered and cleared the Sea of Fog in the vicinity of the Giant Tree. |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"ALMA, NOW!" |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"ACKNOWLEDGED!" |
![Story Queensway.png](/images/b/bc/Story_Queensway.png) Queensway |
"Youko! And Alma! I thought you fled with your Gate!?" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"I was just checking on her. I saw that ignorant woman being experimented on with my own eyes." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"I didn't expect you people to have purified yourselves so brilliantly. I thought that the power would run out of control because of that Unchosen One..." |
![Story Versailles.png](/images/b/be/Story_Versailles.png) Versailles |
"It's too late now. The light has already been released!" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"That's just a matter of Poisoning the Mist Core again. If the control is ours again, we still have a chance." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"Alma, infuse the throne with magic. If she's half demonized, it should be possible to Poison her." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"Now all we have to do is puppet the Divine Child chosen for the Throne. Now we can win. We can use this as our base and start over!" |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"Uhehehehe! Alma's gonna Iron Inject into the Throne~!" |
Ooenomiya |
"...... It's bad manners to jump in such an important place, y'know?" |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"GAAAH!" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"ALMA!" |
Youko ambushed us. Yet she was stopped by Ooenomiya, a kijin who appeared out of nowhere. |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"Uguuh~! What the hell is wrong with you!? You came out of nowhere, that's not fair!" |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Nanja? Did it look like I came out of nowhere? Maybe y'all are the type that doesn't like fast movements?" |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"What the!? Who do you think I am? I'm faster than anyone can... GAH!" |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Are y'all also afraid of getting your nose broken too? Maybe y'all are not good in close combat too." |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Well, whatever. Tell me, little maiden. How can I vaporize your magic? Do I have to take y'all out of the vixen's eyes?" |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"LADY YOUKO! BEHIND YOU!" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"!!" |
![Story Maki.png](/images/f/f7/Story_Maki.png) Maki |
"She stopped me. This woman's good." |
![Story Mary.png](/images/8/82/Story_Mary.png) Mary |
"That little girl is a big piece of work. She's stupid, yet she didn't fall for Ooenomiya's words." |
![Story Queensway.png](/images/b/bc/Story_Queensway.png) Queensway |
"Mary, Miss Maki!" |
![Story Yakutsk.png](/images/b/b6/Story_Yakutsk.png) Yakutsk |
"Not just Mary and Maki. It looks like the whole infantry unit has joined up." |
![Story Khabarovsk.png](/images/8/8d/Story_Khabarovsk.png) Khabarovsk |
"Yakutsk, you're alive?" |
![Story Batu.png](/images/1/1c/Story_Batu.png) Batu |
"Of course she's alive. She's your former subordinate." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"So all the Gates here are connected. Iridescent God Iris. I didn't think you could get this far using that Divine Child's body..." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
(But it would be a shame to come this far and give up the power of the Steel Tree. If this happens, I have no choice but to use my forbidden art to fully awaken Alma.) |
??? |
"Bad move. You don't have enough magic to use said forbidden art." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"What in the?" |
??? |
"Depleted. Your magic power is meagre. If you cannot realise that, you are immature." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
(That's ridiculous! Even if I gave Alma magic power after using my art, there should still be more than enough left over!) |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"...... I told ya before right? That ya should learn more about sorcery." |
![Story Miyako.png](/images/2/21/Story_Miyako.png) Miyako |
"Yuuzen-san!" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"...... Yet another nasty enemy!" |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"Yer being too optimistic. All I did was only planting the 'eyes' and 'ears' of a certain sorceress so that ya wouldn't find out." |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"This 'certain sorceress' is nastier than me. The one talking to ya just now is Nishiki's number one sorceress." |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"...... and she is also Nishiki's most dangerous sorceress." |
![Story Shimoamazu I.png](/images/e/ef/Story_Shimoamazu_I.png) Shimoamazu I |
"Success! Iwato exclusive remote sorcery!" |
Youko |
"There's no way you can take away my power with remote sorcery!" |
![Story Shimoamazu I.png](/images/e/ef/Story_Shimoamazu_I.png) Shimoamazu I |
"...... Try it then. I don't care." |
![Story Shimoamazu I.png](/images/e/ef/Story_Shimoamazu_I.png) Shimoamazu I |
"I will make you aware of changes in your power. Go ahead and choose what you want to do." |
![Story Shimoamazu I.png](/images/e/ef/Story_Shimoamazu_I.png) Shimoamazu I |
"But if you do, be prepared. If you fall into my art, it will be your death." |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"Go ahead. Try it and see how much strength ya have left." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"......" |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
(...... What is going on? I don't even have any strength left to fight alone, let alone my forbidden art!) |
![Story Yuuzen.png](/images/9/9c/Story_Yuuzen.png) Yuuzen |
"By the way, that little sorceress can kill people. If she says she's going to do it, she's really going to do it, and she's a scary one, so ya should be careful." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"Ggh..." |
![Story Youko.png](/images/d/d7/Story_Youko.png) Youko |
"Alma, we're leaving." |
![Story Alma.png](/images/9/98/Story_Alma.png) Alma |
"I-I UNDERSTAND!" |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Do y'all think I'll let y'all go that easily?" |
![Story Maki.png](/images/f/f7/Story_Maki.png) Maki |
"Ooenomiya-sama! Explosion!" |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Huh?" |
Immediately after Youko declared her retreat, Ooenomiya was seizing Alma when an explosion occurred around her body... |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"Cough... cough!" |
Conductor |
She's still alive... Kijin are amazing. Her reaction speed and physical strength are unthinkable for any human being. |
![Story Ooenomiya.png](/images/0/0d/Story_Ooenomiya.png) Ooenomiya |
"You fool! If you want to warn other people of danger, say it more completely! I can't dodge it cleanly with that!" |
![Story Maki.png](/images/f/f7/Story_Maki.png) Maki |
"Explosion. There is no greater truth." |
![Story Putra.png](/images/b/bc/Story_Putra.png) Putra |
"Youko's... they're gone." |
![Story Vivienne.png](/images/8/89/Story_Vivienne.png) Vivienne |
"That explosion earlier was the last move they had in case they had to escape." |
![Story Vivienne.png](/images/8/89/Story_Vivienne.png) Vivienne |
"However, it's finally over now." |
![Story Putra.png](/images/b/bc/Story_Putra.png) Putra |
"Mhm... All of us, we have won." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"......" |

"Big sis Islington!" |

"Pa, pa..." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"PADDINGTON MY SISTEEEEER~!" |
![Story Farringdon.png](/images/c/c8/Story_Farringdon.png) Farringdon |
"It is our victory. Watch. Little by little, the power of the Giant Tree is returning." |
![Story Yoshino.png](/images/b/bd/Story_Yoshino.png) Yoshino |
"Ooooh~! Samantha, the Samanthas are back!" |
![Story Miyako.png](/images/2/21/Story_Miyako.png) Miyako |
"Look. The thorns that were around us are also disappearing. The Giant Tree wasn't dead yet then?" |
![Story Farringdon.png](/images/c/c8/Story_Farringdon.png) Farringdon |
"Or in other words, Iridescent God Iris brought it back to life..." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"Big sis Islington. I've, heard your voice the whole time." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"All the time, from when to when?" |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"All the time. I heard you all the way, until the moment I woke up." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"Big sis, it's when you held my hand and prayed with me, when you shouted at that someone inside me, your voice reached me all the time, big sis." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"That's right... I said it so you could hear me." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"I, big sis, I will never forget what you said to me. Even if I lose my ability to remember, I will always remember." |
![Story Paddington.png](/images/2/28/Story_Paddington.png) Paddington |
"Big sis, did I do it right, did I help you as a Divine Child, as a second-in-command?" |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Dummy... That's a definite given." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"You are my sister, a family of the Elrond House. You are one of the Divine Children who will save the world, and you are Mr. Conductor's second-in-command." |
![Story Islington.png](/images/6/6f/Story_Islington.png) Islington |
"Let's go home with your head held high. You saved the world. I'm proud of you." |
Thus ended the battle for the Steel Tree's Mist Core. |
The Mist Core, tainted with evil power, emitted a frightening light that spread Poison, but by purifying it, it succeeded in releasing its righteous power. |
Nishiki, Eisengrad, Verforet and Flamarine. The four Giant Trees became more powerful than before and the surrounding Sea of Fog disappeared. |
This is the first time in Iris Cloud's long history that the Sea of Fog has disappeared. In the future, we will be able to get closer to the Giant Trees and the route map will be expanded. |
But it is not the site of the Sea of Fog that is in urgent need of investigation after all this. |
――The light that has been released is five in total. |
In addition to the Giant Trees in each country, it means there is another one. The light has obliterated the Deep Fog in the unexplored area southeast of St. Iris. |
A new Giant Tree appeared there. The investigation of the "Sixth Giant Tree" is urgently needed... |
