A group of students are concerned over mysterious disappearances happening all around Tatsumi Town. A being from another world complicates the lives of two students and accidentally sends them to another world.

Souma and Kureha become more familiar with the dream continent, End Earth

When Souma realized that the enemy they are battling against is Kiriya and Seena, he begins to fight Kiriya even though they are friends.

Souma's disappearance troubles the group, but they soon realize that they have an even bigger problem.

During the battle between Kiriya and Xecty, one of Saionji's four guardians, an earthquake occurs, causing both warriors to fall into a cavern, trapping them.

A berserk Xecty escapes from her cell, tracks down Kiriya, and attacks him, but she is retrieved by Hiruda, who temporarily reverts to her original personality after her alter ego's soul blade is defeated by Souma.

Souma attempts to negotiate a peaceful settlement between Kiriya's and Saionji's parties, but fails.

After Souma is rescued by Zero, Zero reveals his past as a member of Weissritter and tells a story about his life.

Xecty's death prompts Killrain to release an immense dark force, which also causes him to go mad with vengeance.

Souma is unexpectedly reunited with of all his friends. The reunion begins with Souma leading the depressed Kiriya to meet the world's "hope".

Lassi guides the combined group to meet the elf Kiriya saw in his dreams. Xecty becomes the priestess of the tower of the wind, but Killrain's actions prevented her from completely releasing the tower's power.

After arriving at the destined place, the group splits up, focused on rescuing Saionji. After fighting their way towards Saionji, the group is unable to pierce the barrier surrounding him until Hiruda arrives and tries it herself.

By combining the power of the three Ultimate Soul Blades, the soul bladers are able to defeat Er Fahren and liberate Killrain's soul.
