The Crew of Edens visit Blue Garden for a meeting with Noah, where he and Rebecca ponder over the mystery of Connor's disappearance. After parting on better terms with Noah—and mixed terms with Labilia—Rebecca and the others decide to visit Granbell one last time before they set out on their voyage into outer space. Unbeknownst to them, Connor also prepares to make his way to Granbell aboard the once-destroyed Edens One.

## Summary

Shiki returns to his normal self, while Drakken lies in defeat and rapidly ages to an old man. Weisz X442 grabs his gun and aims it at the old Drakken. Weisz states that he is the one who killed his mother and many others, Shiki tries to stop him, noting that Drakken cannot move. Weisz asks Shiki if he could be friends with someone who took the life of someone he loves, Shiki answers that he would probably not right away, saying it might take time. He adds that if someone reaches out, then he thinks it is possible to be friends with anyone. Just then, Drakken reaches his hand out, surprising Weisz, but the old mad demands him to give his life to him. Exasperated, Weisz fires his gun, but misses. He throws his gun, wondering why he cannot kill him, which Sibir arrives and answers that he knows how precious life is. The others arrive shortly after, which Amira notes how big of a deal taking down Drakken is. Rebecca's group arrives, where she is glad everone is okay. Shiki agrees and begins crying, promising to never make his friends cry again ever. With Drakken defeated, Rebecca states that they won.

In the Edens Zero, Hermit asks what happened to Drakken, Pino replies that the Interstellar Union Army took him into custody. Mosco wonders what will happen to the Belial Gore, which Witch assumes that an investigation will be conducted, but that the resident's lifestyles will be preserved now that the ship is a sort of space colony. In Weisz's room, he thinks about his conversation with Sibir, who gives him his pendant. Weisz assumes he did stole it, but Sibir explains he gave it to him. He states that after Drakken cut his arm off, he found the guy who stole it. He went to give it back, but Weisz refused, saying it is a reminder of when he did not trust his friend. Wanting Sibir to keep it until he can forgive himself, Sibir recalls how he distanced himself from the gang and found something that meant more than his mother's keepsake. Sibir remarks how lonely it was without him, but states that he was jealous of his new life and proud that he could call him his friend. He gives the pendant, telling Weisz that he has been blessed with good friends. Meanwhile, Labilia explores the ship with Homura, opening a door to find Jinn, who glares at her, along with his sleeping sister. At the ship's park, Shiki's group talks about how they won with teamwork, which Rebecca notes that Connor did not do anything, surprised that he did not show up during this ordeal. The others are confused, not knowing who Connor is, shocking Rebecca.

On Blue Garden, Noah thanks the Edens Zero crew for defeating Drakken and restoring peace to the Sakura Cosmos. He adds that they should be awarded, but that the mission relied on Rebecca's Cat Leaper. Because it would be complicate everyone involved if he reports this to his superiors, he asks that they remain anonymous. He reveals that his role as a Guild Master is just a front and, out of respect for them and hoping it will make up for any damage he personally have done to them, reveals that he is the G.I.A. director of the Sakura Cosmos. Rebecca asks the others to go ahead without her, as she wants to speak to Noah alone. Now alone, she asks Noah if he knows who her parents are or if she has any family, but unfortunately he does not. He tried to check her background, wanting to know where her power came from and speculates that her powers originate beyond his reach in outer space. Rebecca then asks and explains about Connor, who was in the previous world with them but is not in the current world, noting that there's no discrepancy in dates since her friends say there was no debris field and the journey just took one day. Noah alleviates Rebecca's worries of possibly erasing someone's existence, suspecting that the events of the past were changed by a power other than her own. Rebecca speculates of another Cat Leaper, which Noah states that he will look into it.

After Rebecca leaves the room, she meets Labilia who apologizes too, as it was her fault that Drakken captured her. Labilia relunctantly thanks her and leaves, but Rebecca gets notified from the Labilia Channel of a new video, which features Labilia secretly recording Rebecca. In the Edens Zero's Dress Factory, Kleene is trying out outfits, which Sister promises to heal her. At the guildhall, Shiki's group views the hologram of Mother, stating it is time to start their quest to find her, where each states their wish. However, Shiki wants see Granbell one last time. Meanwhile, somewhere in space the Edens One, with its captain Connor having a strange dream of being in a family, sets sails to Granbell to keep his promise.

On Granbell, the Edens Zero crew visit the Granbell Kingdom. Rebecca wonders if Shiki is alright, as what if the bots attack them again. Shiki remembers that they were affected by a bad virus and tells the others not to hurt them too much. Remembering that Hermit said that Shining Stars were from Granbell, the Mind of Edens specifies that they were built here and went off to search for Mother, but they found Shiki and turned back. Shiki wonders where they found him, but Hermit does not remember as the Stars' memories from outer space were erased and wonders for what reason Ziggy did it.

When they reach the kingdom, they find all the bots lying around. Hermit inspects one, noting that without the Ether powering them they have all shut down. She finds no signs that they were ever infected by a virus and plays the logs. They watch the feed of Ziggy telling them they only have a few years left and that they must help Shiki reach the skies before then. Castellan hopes that a human arrives before they break down, the next log happens the night Rebecca and Happy arrive, where they decide to set their plan in motion. Acting as if they were infected by a virus to send Shiki away. The next is after he left, where the Castellan congratulates everyone before they start shutting down. Rebecca, Happy, and Shiki are saddened upon realizing their act. Suddenly, Ziggy makes his presence known, surprising everyone as they thought he was dead.
