Jamilov proves himself to be invincible when Shiki attacks him to avenge the massacre victims. After Jamilov logs out to attend a meeting with Drakken, Shiki's team reaches Hermit and tries persuading her to return to Edens Zero, but she resists out of hatred for humans. Returning to the city, the team witnesses an oncoming siege of enemy monsters reprogrammed by Jamilov to kill the surviving NPCs. While Shiki rescues Hermit from the monsters, his teammates are assisted by the event boss in protecting the city. Meanwhile, Homura is seemingly revealed to be working against the Edens Zero crew when she allies with Jamilov, intent on joining Drakken's ranks. As Homura openly betrays the team after Shiki returns with Hermit, a second Homura with a different avatar appears and saves Shiki from being killed by the monster army.
