The world on the other side of the screen becomes reality, and amidst the chaos Shiroe finds his old friend Naotsugu.  And as they relax at finding one another, they meet the powerful assassin "Akatsuki".  Akatsuki has a request to make of Shiroe...
Up until the second they executed the 
update, I can remember everything.
Ich kann mich an alles erinnern,
bis das Update durchgeführt wurde.
Recuerdo todo lo que pasó hasta el 
momento que añadieron la actualización.
Je me souviens avoir vu
la mise à jour, puis plus rien.
Ricordo tutto fino al momento 
in cui hanno eseguito l'update.
Eu lembro de tudo até 
o momento da atualização.
Я помню, что было ровно до момента,
когда запустил игру.
