An unnamed female narrator accidentally breaks a vase in the Ushiromiya household. While lamenting their accident, a [[Virgilia|mysterious witch]] appears before them. The witch claims she can make the vase "remember its previous form" and demonstrates this with a show of magic. The vase repairs itself and the girl rejoices. However, shortly afterwards, the vase breaks again while a servant cleans nearby. The witch explains that, by having the vase "remember its previous form", she is not repairing it permanently as the vase's transition to a broken form is already determined. Thus, the best the witch can do is delay the time at which it breaks. The girl, enthralled by the show of magic, asks to become the witch's apprentice. The witch agrees to the request.
 
Line 103 ⟶ 61:
Battler and Beatrice appear in the [[Ushiromiya Main Building]]. Inside, they are greeted by everyone who had died along with the [[Seven Stakes of Purgatory]] and the [[Chiester Sisters]]. Virgilia reveals that they had reached the Golden Land. While everyone celebrates, [[Kinzo Ushiromiya]] ushers Battler and Beatrice to a ledger and asks that they sign it to welcome everyone to the Golden Land. Just before Battler can sign, a [[Ange Ushiromiya|redheaded girl]] appears and stops him. The redheaded girl then challenges Beatrice and declares that she will reveal the truth.
