Two and a half years have passed since the Lost JuLai, an event that engulfed the whole world and brought an entire city to ruin. Meryl, now a senior reporter, reunites with Nicholas while searching for Vash with her junior colleague Milly. As new plant robberies start taking place, she senses that Millions Knives’ group might be behind this.
Meanwhile, Vash, living secretly under the name of Eriks in a backwater town, is visited by a young girl named Jessica, who announces an SOS from the third ship they call “Home”. Vash decides that it’s time to put an end to this chaos and protect those who are dear to him.
The puzzle pieces finally start falling into place and their stories intertwine, suddenly, a message comes from the far reaches of outer space: “We are a fleet of colony ships from Earth. Those who wish can join us on our journey to a new land.” Just as the people start celebrating, the One-Winged Angel returns to wreak havoc and thrust everyone into despair. As the planet and its people sink deeper into despair, fates begin to collide.
