[-] After resting for a night, Illya and the others return to the church where they first visited after coming to this world. Waiting for them there is the last Jyanshi of the Holy Mahjong War.
[-] Welcome back, lost sheep. It seems that you've found the clues you need to go home.
[-] Isn't it against the rules for a personnel to also be a contestant?
[-] Are you just using us to collect the cards for you?
[-] The Jyanshi of the Holy Mahjong War will attract each other until all the cards are ultimately gathered in one place. The process isn't important.
[-] ...That's true. Regardless of the progress, this is the final game.
[-] Miss Nun, we apply to have a Holy Mahjong War game with you!
[-] I, Sister Lily Kitahara, accept your invitation. Little sheep, I hope you find the answer to this journey in this game.
[-] Now that it's the final game, Gil claims he has already helped get two cards and refuses to contribute any more, choosing instead to watch on the sidelines.
[-] They will win if anyone on Illya's side finishes the game in the top position. They thought they should be able to win steadily in this three-on-one situation, but they realize after the game starts that this nun who looks kind-hearted is actually an out-and-out monster...
[-] Pon! Now I can Tenpai...
[-] Ron! Hehe!
[-] You idiot! She's baiting you!
[-] This doesn't make sense. We should be able to Tenpai faster than her!
[-] Dora, Closed Wait, the last key tile... Lily Kitahara is always able to extend her goodwill to the girls at just the right time. Once they can't resist the temptation and reach out, the venomous snake hidden behind the gifts she has given will capture their deal-in tiles.
[-] Let's ignore the tiles she plays and try to get what we need ourselves.
[-] Only you've been able to resist the temptation and not bite the bait. You're amazing.
[-] Thanks for the praise, but I'm just a little awkward and can't easily believe that my enemy will give me any good tiles.
[-] (There isn't much time remaining, and I'm not the dealer right now either. Is there any other way...?)
[-] You don't need to be that nervous. Even if you fail to obtain the omnipotent wish-granting device, you can still live in this city.
[-] We can't just stay here forever. There are people waiting for us in our own world. We must go back there.
[-] I see... But is it really enough to just return?
[-] What do you mean?
[-] The omnipotent wish-granting device only chooses Jyanshi who have wishes or desires to be fulfilled. Since you who do not belong to this world were brought here. Logically speaking, there should be some wish or desire you want the omnipotent wish-granting device to fulfill for you.
[-] I wonder what difficulty brought you here. Or should I say... made you flee here?
[-] Huh?!
[-] Lily Kitahara's words are like a key that unlocks some of the chains sealing the girls' memories. Although they still don't know how they came to this world, the last scenes they saw before coming here gradually become clear in their minds.
[-] H-Hahaha... She's right. We did flee here...
[-] Kuro smiles bitterly and looks down at her chest. There are obviously no scars, but her memories make her suffer from phantom pain, which causes her to sweat uncontrollably.
[-] Illya and Miyu look at Kuro worriedly. They also remember what happened in their own world. They thought everything was over after they defeated Julian, but they didn't expect that Darius, the first head of the Ainsworth, would suddenly appear and attack them.
[-] The last scene in their memory is of Darius's hand passing through Kuro's chest, and clutched tightly in his hand is the Archer Class card that is crucial to Kuro's life...
[-] Although it's a little inconvenient that our magical powers are limited here, this world seems quite peaceful, and it might be nice to just stay here and live peacefully.
[-] Illya hesitates after seeing the tile Kuro plays. She now has a chance with this hand. If she calls Pon on this tile, this means she will need to attack until the end.
[-] Why are you hesitating? Call Pon now if you want it.
[-] But...
[-] Illya...
[-] Even if she wins the game, if they return to that moment of despair, will they really be able to stop Darius and save everything?
[-] ...You idiot. I'm just saying that. Don't tell me you really want to stay in this world?
[-] But Darius has your card! Once we return like this--
[-] Even so, we still need to go back... Lots of people are waiting for us, right?
[-] Miyu, I... What should I do...?
[-] Illya, I wouldn't be here today if you didn't save me bravely at the very beginning, so I support whatever decision you make. If you choose to stay, I'll stay here with you until you make up your mind to return.
[-] You're a miracle to me, Illya. You appeared in front of me both times I was consumed with despair. I believe you can create miracles.
[-] Miyu...
[-] Everything is possible as long as we don't give up. So... let's go home together, Illya.
[-] ...Geez... How can I forget that? We've already escaped once, and we almost lost something important to us... Pon!
[-] Hehe, have you already figured out how to face reality?
[-] No. I don't know if I can stop Darius after we go back or what else we'll encounter in the future... But I've made up my mind to not run away again!
[-] This is the Illya I know... I'm sure you need this tile too!
[-] Pon!
[-] Illya starts to call for Red and Green Triplets successively. The tile she needs for her Yakuman is obvious to everyone now.
[-] No matter what is waiting for us in the future, we can only keep moving forward because... the future is always there. It is always in front of us!
[-] So you've already made up your mind. In that case, I'll give you this tile as my farewell gift.
[-] As she speaks, Lily Kitahara plays a White tile. However, Illya ignores it without any hesitation. On one hand, she wants to avoid falling into another trap, while on the other, she believes that she can clear the fog with her own hands to find the way home.
[-] ...I've got it! Tsumo, Big Three Dragons!
[-] Finally, Illya ends the game with Yakuman via Tsumo. Unfortunately...
[-] Oh no! Illya and Miss Kitahara have the same amount of points, but Miss Kitahara is in the East position.
[-] We can't win based on the seating order, huh... It can't be helped. We already did our best to win with a Yakuman.
[-] How can this be... The Holy Mahjong War is only held once every few years. Doesn't that mean we'll have to wait for a long time? Huh? What's that sound?
[-] Just as the girls are filled with despair, the mahjong table makes a strange sound. After that, a blinding light fills the entire church.
[-] Hey, hey, hey! Don't tell me this mahjong table is about to blow up?!
[-] You don't need to be nervous. The omnipotent wish-granting device you've been seeking is this mahjong table. The phenomenon you're seeing now is it responding to a wish.
[-] The strange thing is that it has started operating even though I haven't made a wish... Young man, did you do something? Hehe.
[-] The omnipotent wish-granting device was originally something in my treasure vault. I decide who uses it or how it works. It was an unforgivable act of arrogance for you to hold this competition and use this omnipotent wish-granting device as the prize without authorization, but this farce pleases me to some extent, so I'll let it slide this time.
[-] I've altered the omnipotent wish-granting device so that it can operate as long as all seven Jyanshi Cards are collected, and it has already responded to your wish, Illya. I'll be going back first then.
[-] After speaking, Gil disappears in the light. Soon after, Kuro and Miyu also disappear in the light.
[-] Miss Nun, please help us tell Miss Ayane that we've gone back home and thank her for taking care of us. I really wanted to say goodbye to her personally.
[-] That's simple. I'm happy to convey your message for you. I hope you find the solution to your situation, little sheep.
[-] Thanks! Well, I'll be heading back now too. I have the feeling that... someone is waiting for me to lend a helping hand!
[-] Have our lost visitors all returned home, woof?
[-] They just returned. By the way, why have you just been observing from the shadows instead of coming out into the open?
[-] I will not participate in the competition or be involved in the operation of the competition in any way. I'm only responsible for confirming their purpose for coming to this world and that they won't do anything outlandish, woof.
[-] Ah, some strange visitors come here every year. The priest sure knows how to torment people, woof.
[-] So modifying the rules isn't something outlandish? Hehe.
[-] Since they didn't suffer any divine punishment, it means that the priest has acquiesced to those actions, woof.
[-] Okay! It's time to get off work, woof.
