In a space that was all white except for a floating black sphere, a girl with one wing of a machine was closing her eyes. Her name was Makina the creator of the one world, who became a god from a man and created one world.

　After separating from Alicia and setting off, Makina has traveled through many worlds to forge her own power, and now she is a true god, also known as the 'machine god', with a power that can be said to be higher than that of the world's creators.
　After completing her journey, she created the world she wanted to live in. Her childhood, which she had to guide, was over, and her system of maintenance and observation, centered on the three program codes, was completed.
　From then on, she waited quietly, observing the world through Paradise (Eden). She has been quietly observing the world growing out of her own hands, hoping that her "beloved child," who is worthy of pouring all of her love into, will one day appear, far greater than ever before after the passage of so many years.

　There is no need to make any changes to the world now, and there is no foolish creator of another world who would challenge her, who is said to have power beyond omniscience and omnipotence, to a fight.
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing, and you're going to be able to get a good idea of what you're going to be doing.

　Immediately after that, the space opened up as if it were split open vertically and a voice came from there.

''I'm sorry to interrupt you in the middle of your conversation.
...No problem. I'm sure you have your own agenda.

　Makina replies in an indifferent tone to the voice of Shalovanal, who she recognizes as both a friend as well as someone she deeply fears, which came from the rifted space.
　When I think about it, my relationship with Shalovanal has become long, while feeling that way.......

''Once again, shall we continue the negotiations?

　When Sharovanal cut her off like that, Makina looked blatantly uncomfortable. Sharovanal's negotiation, that is, was not a very desirable thing for her.
　The other party is a friend with whom she has a good relationship, so she is willing to negotiate for a time, but she couldn't really say that she was willing to get into it.

'As for me, I'm not keen on it. Rather, as you know........but I am not happy with the summoning of a brave man in the first place. Remember, I am reluctantly admitting it on the condition that my children's souls will be returned to us after death.
"Yes, of course.

　As a matter of fact, he refused to negotiate with her the first time without a stern look. However, Shalovanal didn't back down easily, and she had approached Makina several times with negotiations.

''........And now you want to temporarily lend me my child's soul, I've known you for a certain amount of time, so I'm agreeing to negotiate with you in this way, but.......please don't expect a good response. In the first place, why do you go to such lengths?　What is so special about my child who has been summoned to you this time Sharovannal?
"Mr. Kaijin is my singularity.

　The words that were announced, although only slightly, dwelled in Makina's heart with the emotion of interest.

It's a bit surprising that that Sharovanal would say that much, but I guess it could be called an interesting change. Huh, I can't help it.

　After thinking about it to that extent, Makina quietly told Sharovannal.

''........You've changed.
Is that so?
'Yes, I can feel more emotions than ever before. I shall look into it........

　Needless to say, Machina has the power of omniscience, and yet at this point in time, she is aware that the pleasant man is not 'my beloved child' but 'just my child' to her.
　It is easy for her to find out about pleasant people by using her omniscience, and there was no need for her to visit Trinity in the first place.
　She used her omniscience to find out about the pleasant person, and if there was no problem, she was willing to agree to Sharovannal's negotiations with some conditions, and that was the extent of her feelings at this time.
　So why did she decide to visit Trineia?

　

　After telling Shalovanal, Makina quickly and omnisciently studied the pleasant man.......and was astonished from the bottom of her heart. Although she didn't show it on her face, her heart was tremendously upset.
　
　Yes, she examined Kaito with her omniscience. And..........

(Why, why.........what happened!　When did you start wearing that glued-on, sad smile, Alicia? !

　Yes, there was no way she could mistake it for anything else. She had found her beloved best friend, an important and beloved figure that remains strongly in her memory even now.
　That best friend........Alicia was smiling with an expression that had some darkness in it, instead of the smile that she once felt was even dazzling.

　Makina's actions from there were quick. She felt uneasy about Alicia's obviously different appearance from before, and immediately did what she hadn't done before.......she invoked her omniscience against Alicia.
　And for the first time since she became a god........she regretted it from the bottom of her heart.

(Yes, it was.) Alicia ... so you ... why wasn't I by your side!　No, regret later. Forget it, Alicia but what are we going to do?　If I could, I would go to Alicia right now. (But that's not...)

　Seeing Alicia in such a state, Makina wanted to head to her right now. However, things are not so easy.
　

　Of course, even though it is a contract, there is no power that binds her omniscience and omnipotence to her actions, it is simply a promise. However, to break this is to give the other party.......Sharovanal an excuse to break the contract.
　She hesitated for a moment, but soon the words she had once exchanged................................came back to her head.

--A promise.

　Yes, she had made a promise. My dear, dear, dear friend....

Promise.... Now you can help me, but I'm not weak anymore. There's a way. In fact, the situation here is more of a negotiation with the Shallovanal. So I'll have a much easier time making a deal with him. (As expected, if I say I'm the one to do it, Shalovanal will probably have a hard time doing it, but...)

　Makina, who has an overwhelming speed of thought as a god, gathered her thoughts in less than ten seconds and at the same time finished thinking about her actions from here on out.
　Then, while trying her best to remain calm, she uttered a few words to Sharovannal.

''I'd like to.........directly.......assess it.
"Kaito-san?
Yes, would you mind if I took him home once?　If you agree that I'm worthy, then we'll agree on the example.

　Makina first dared to offer to take Kaito back to our world. As long as they have a contract that prevents them from visiting each other's world, it's the most uncomfortable way if Makina can determine it directly.
　

''What if ... you decide it's not worth it?''
Isn't it obvious that we should 'get rid of' what we don't need?　I will only take care of the lives in my world as I see fit.

　Of course it is a lie. There is no way that Machina, who loves her child with all her heart, would do such a thing. But Sharovanar does not know that much.
　You may be aware enough to know that Makina cares for my child, but you can't be absolutely confident that Makina won't harm your child or not.
　That's why Sharovanal said the words that Makina wanted.

''........That is unacceptable.''

　Yes, I wanted those words. As long as we can get a statement to the effect that we won't allow the pleasant person to be brought back to this world, the negotiations ahead will be much easier to do.

''........Then let's do this. I will go over there and assess it. But that doesn't mean my main body will go there. The body I made exclusively for it........
"You're in this world?　Isn't that a violation of the contract we made before?'
'Yes, that's right. Therefore, in return for your meditating on that breach of contract, I will add to the new contract that I will never harm your singularity. How about it, then?
...hmm.

　He had no doubt that this negotiation would go through. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this, but I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.
　You're going to be able to find out what you're looking for, and you're going to be able to find out what you're looking for, and you're going to be able to find out what you're looking for, and you're going to be able to find out what you're looking for.

''.........It's not a bad content. If you agree to that, then regarding the example?''
Yes, it comes with the assumption that it's positive, but let's consider it.

　Furthermore, this way, the more positive attitude towards the negotiations that Sharovanal wanted in the beginning, the more benefits it would have for Sharovanal.
　Then naturally, Sharovanal's answer would be........

''I understand. I'm fine with those terms........will you come here immediately?''
I can get the alter ego ready right away, but there's a time for everything. We'll let you know when the timing is right.

　The important thing for Makina was not to determine the pleasant man, but to save Alicia, and she needed to determine the best time to do so.
　That has been investigated by omniscience. Everything, including how I should move, including how I should move........


".........Earth God, Earth God.......Earth is not the name of the world but the name of the stars, but as for what you call me as a being......well.... Not bad.
If you tell me your name, I'll call you that.
Unfortunately, I don't have a proper name for the god I'm calling myself. But yes I'll try to think of something before I visit you. I'll get back to you Sharovannal.
"Yes, again...

　It occurred to me when Sharovanar told me that she doesn't have a name for herself as a god. Machina is only the name she had when she was human, and the only person she wants to be called by that name.......is her one and only best friend.
　The creators of the other worlds call her 'Kijin', but that doesn't mean it's a separate name either.

　She concluded that since she was going to use Paradise (Eden) as a terminal when she went to Trineia, she should just take that name as well, and she began to formulate a plan to save Alicia.







　An inorganic mechanical voice echoed in the pure white space.

''Program code 《Paradise》, individual number 76812 has temporarily left the responsibility of wide-area general observation as of now. As of the present time, it will become a connection terminal for Mother Brain Machina.

　The eyes of the mechanical angels with ten pairs of twenty wings are dyed in extreme colors, and lines enter space, opening the way to another world.

At the same time, the synchronization with the program code abyss and shield is temporarily cancelled. Twelve seconds later, the inter-world transfer is activated, and the transfer coordinates are otherworldly Trinya..........Counting, begin.

　 In order to save her best friend, the promise she once made that will never fade away, the best friend she will never have.......





　Considering the premise that Eden's true identity is Machina, and that her goal is not to find out who is pleasant, but to save Alicia...............Alice, it would explain much of her mysterious actions.
　Like the fact that she, being omniscient, went out of her way to visit the other world to directly assess the pleasant person, but when she came to this world, she first conducted a mock battle with Crom Eina.
　If the goal was to meet and assess a pleasant person, there was no need to do such a thing. She had obviously assumed from the beginning that they would be fighting in this world. That's why she accepted the conditions mentioned by Crom Eina, who is not her own child, with ease, and in exchange for a mock battle... 'an opportunity to practice taming'.

　On top of that, he appeared at the place where Kaito and Alice are together. There was no need to bring Alice along with her to another space if it was to determine the pleasant person.
　Then she caught Alice off guard with her first move and forced Alice to transfer to a hundred thousand kilometers away. A hundred thousand kilometers might sound like a tremendous distance if you think about it on a 'human level'.
　But for Alice, who could easily cross the speed of light, it wasn't much of a distance. In fact, it only took Alice a fraction of the time it took her to cover a hundred thousand kilometers and break through the walls of another space to return.

　

'--Weave a bond!　Hecaton Cale!

　While looking at Alice, who took off her mask and stared at herself with her strong-willed eyes, Eden........Makina was quietly thinking.

(...........That's right, Alicia. It's true that your heart may have been shattered once. But it won't stay shattered forever. Your heart is on the verge of regaining its sparkle, its hope.

　Tied to the past, she keeps stopping in her tracks, and is blown wide open by the fist she swings, staring forward to protect Kaito.
　Pitter-patterningly stopping in the air on the way, Eden slowly spreads the wings on her back.

(It's going to be a rough treatment, but I'll be sure to pull up the once... um, much stronger glow that's smoldering in the back of your mind than it once was!　From there it's up to you to take it from there........Alicia!

　And so she and Alice began to fight, but looking back, there was a part of the fight that felt strange to her.
　Eden didn't eliminate Alice with all her might from the first move, but gradually made her attacks stronger. It was as if he was 'leading Alice to greater heights' and gradually made his attacks more and more caustic.
　In fact, in the battle against Eden, Alice slowly regained her former self. In order to protect her precious lover, she regained the strength that was her starting point, to be stronger and faster than she was now.

　Every time Alice's heart twinkles strongly, the Hecaton Cail she wears increases in brilliance.

Spinning!　--Hecaton Cale!

　A light like a meteor is sucked into Alice, and her body, her magic power ... begins to shine brightly.
　It is the warm.......and most of all, nostalgic, light of hope that once rescued one girl from the darkness.
　Seeing that glow, 'Eden' did not change her expression.
　The words of joy for the resurrection of her beloved best friend..................



------Welcome back.......my.... ...Heroes.
