**Spoiler warning: *Plot and/or ending details follow. (Skip section)***

Oshtor wonders what is Mikazuchi doing here and Mikazuchi explains that he was asked to come and help. Anju and the rest of Oshtor's friends then show up, explaining that they heard from Mikazuchi that Oshtor will is in danger.

Mikazuchi turns his sword at Woshis, wanting him to pay for interfering in his brother's war, but Woshis isn't interested in fighting as he already obtained what he needs. As he shows the key, Oshtor explains its an old relic that Mikado was looking. Mikazuchi states then they shouldn't allow him to have it and as he charges, Woshis sends three of his soldiers to fight him. As they run towards Mikazuchi, they transform into much bigger and buffed up monsters.

Honoka informs Mito that someone from outside had accessed the temple and the Gate has been awakened, and someone is entering the facility. Mito then tells her to go hide somewhere safe. Mikazuchi, Anju and the rest, manage to defeat Woshis' monsters. Oshtor is surprised to see Mikazuchi alive and Mikazuchi explains that he was badly injured and fell into the canal. He woke up later in a glass chamber and realized he was saved by Mito. He told him about Oshtor's journey to Tuskur and that it may be dangerous and Mikazuchi decided to come and help Oshtor. Anju wants them to go after Woshis, but Ulthury explains that he is no longer in Tuskur and used the Gate to go elsewhere. Before leaving, Eruruu comes and gives them the mask that the Iceman wore, explaining that the master wants them to have it.

Woshis visits Mito and calls him father. He shows him that he got the master key and activates the facility operational level four. Woshis states that now he can explore all facilities and obtain all their wisdom. He has been waiting for this moment for so long, after Mito had abandoned him. Mito states he didn't abandoned him, but Woshis disagrees as he banished him from this place. Woshis couldn't believe that Mito entrusted everything to that nobody. When he heard that he lost his life defending Oshtor, he got happy as it meant that now no one can stop him, however, he soon learned that not only Haku had survived, but he also took Oshtor's place. However, thanks to him, Woshis now has the master key and he no longer cares about Haku. Mito tells him that he isn't capable of inheriting the legacy of the Onvitaikayan. Woshis is annoyed as he even started considering his banishment as a trial and worked hard to prove himself, yet Mito still won't accept him. However, Woshis states that he will show him proof that he is his true heir and Mito will have to accept him. He then orders the facility to show its true form.

Woshis is excited that he will become even greater than the Mikado. Oshtor's group then comes and Oshtor tells him that he needs to realize they don't need the legacy of the past. Woshis tells him he is late as he already has all the power to command. Anju then sees Mito and is surprised to see her father alive. Mito tells her he is proud and that she is the new Mikado. Woshis laughs and states that Anju isn't Mito's real daughter. He shows picture of Honoka and the real Anju, and explains that Anju was created as a replacement of his real daughter. Mito tries to explain that his feelings for her were real. Oshtor had enough and steps up, telling Woshis that he will pay for everything he did. Woshis states its not wonder that Mito chose him as his heir. He proceeds to explain that Oshtor isn't Oshtor, but before he tells his real name, Oshtor's friends stand up for him and state that Oshtor is who he is. Annoyed, Woshis activates lasers around Oshtor's group and tells them not to move. He then decides its time for him to release his comrades from eternal suffering. Woshis decide to use the particle oscillation wave emitter to annihilate the Tatari that are gathered in the facility and give them eternal rest. He gives the order, but gets an error, stating the authorization level is insufficient. Woshis can't believe it and asks what is wrong as he has been granted the master key. The system then informs him that he is identified as a clone, and that restricts him to level four sub-administrator privileges.
