Summary
The Lawless and members of the Combined Forces of Humanity can only stare helplessly in front of the Parasite Super Wurm.
Zaybi sees things are now out of control as the Super Wurm continues to grow, shooting tendrils at him. He manages to dodges but the same cannot be said for several unlucky Lawless who are grabbed and consumed. Zaybi thinks fast, recalling that heat was the Parasites weakness. Normally a Fireball would do the trick but now it is impossible as the Super Wurm has grown too big. Zaybi then thinks what his brother would do in such a hopeless situation and thus decides that the only way to kill the Natural Enemy is to get into the Parasites stomach and unleash a Hell’s Flame.
At the front of the kneeling Lawless, who have surrendered with their hands clasped in the air, Zaybi prepares to sacrifice himself. However, Naurai frantically runs towards him shouting out to stop. At first, Zaybi thinks he is talking to him but he is actually directing his pleas to stop praying towards the Lawless.
Suddenly, to the collective shock of the onlookers, a massive mound erupts in the ruins behind the Super Wurm, its summit bursting open with fire. A giant fork impales the Super Wurm, held by a humongous hand emerging from the distant clouds. The roaring Super Wurm is lifted effortlessly up to the mound - now revealed to be a volcano - before being dunked into the lava, where it burns and cooks to death. As the cooked twitching corpse of the Super Wurm is lifted high into the sky, a massive feminine head emerges from the clouds, swallowing it like a morsel.
Through all this, while Zaybi and the others look on with a mixture of astonishment and relief, Naurai is shown increasingly terrified at the realization they were saved - and how big of a cost such salvation would demand, with the vast head gazing down at them from the skies, with lightning erupting and the volcano spewing.
In an instant however, all those phenomena disappear, a single humanoid figure flying down from the skies and landing gently in front of them, a field of flowers erupting around the landing. As Naurai's trembling grows ever stronger, it is revealed this is Yaotsu, the God of Indignia. Zaybi questions to himself if this is their savior or another enemy while the Lawless look on with a mixture of fear and reverence, Rinri shuddering. The scene ends as Yaotsu smiles, asking if they were seeking a God.
Elsewhere, Gisangi approaches the Combined Forces of Humanity's new base accompanied by a small group of Lawless men armed with weapons. One of them comments on the bizarre events that he saw happen back at their own base, mentioning a volcano and the face of a divine being appearing, which now have vanished into thin air. He warns that Kyokai may be in trouble, but the others dismiss him, believing he is the one in trouble. Gisangi silences them and explains that in a world this messed up, it's normal to see something terrifying every day, so they must savor every last moment in these fragile times.
The others don't quite understand what he means. Gisangi adds that this is exactly why it feels so fulfilling to take those precious moments from others. The Lawless men eagerly agree with him. Ignoring Rinri's orders, Gisangi reveals he has no intention of waiting around. Staring at the Combined Forces of Humanity's base, he tells the others it's time to have some fun.
