Shidou Itsuka’s connection to Ratatoskr has plunged him into a danger zone like never before. Having already secured ten Spirits, he now finds himself squarely in the crosshairs of Isaac Westcott, the ruthless head of Deus Ex Machina Industries. Isaac's ambition is chillingly clear: eliminate Shidou and steal the power of the Spirits for his own nefarious purposes. To do so, he’s launched a full-scale assault on Ratatoskr, pushing the organization to its absolute limit in a desperate fight to protect Shidou. Though facing overwhelming odds, a fragile hope emerges with Kurumi Tokisaki, the enigmatic Spirit of Time. Shidou's next critical mission is to seal and harness Kurumi’s power – a necessary step that will send him hurtling into the past, where he must finally confront the Spirit of Origin, the source of this escalating conflict.

Shido’s haste to reach the Spirits is met with a firm obstruction from Westcott. Elsewhere, Tohka and the others are rendered helpless, dwarfed by the overwhelming presence of Mio’s manifested Angel, Ein Sof Ohr.
The sheer force of Mio's Ein Sof Ohr left many spirits utterly drained, collapsing them one by one. Kotori, with a determined gesture, guided Fraxinus towards Mio and unleashed her spirit cannon, Gungnir, but...
A wave of disbelief crashed over Shido when Mio delivered the news: all the Spirits were gone. He stood frozen, a physical paralysis gripping him, as Mio’s hand moved towards his mind, a chilling prelude to erasure. Yet, even as she reached…
Shido found himself back in a time preceding the conflict with DEM, a period untouched by loss. Determined to alter the course of events, he asked Reine on a date. Hearing his story, Kotori and the Spirits offered their heartfelt support.
As Shido’s meeting with Reine nears its end, a chilling certainty settles upon her: history itself has been altered. Just as the DEM threat looms closer, Kurumi appears, arriving to offer assistance to Shido.
Kurumi weathered Mio’s attack, and the other Spirits arrived to assist Shido. Understanding the reason for his earlier failure to seal Mio, Shido resolved to kiss her once more, hoping to compel her to choose him over Shinji.
As Shido and Mio meet gaze, their emotions exchanged between them, Westcott initiates his dreadful ritual. Will Shido and his allies succeed in thwarting his scheme before it comes to pass?
