As Freecell becomes curious as to why Nonoha is present in a vision of him facing off against Kaito, Kaito and the others ponder why Freecell needed Klondike's Final Ring. The next day, Whist abducts Nonoha, taking her to Freecell's location in the Himalayas. As Kaito and the others head to their location, Freecell explains how the memento he received from Solitaire was a puzzle he wanted to solve with Kaito. Nonoha then proceeds to tell him the truth about what happened to Solitaire. She also manages to replicate a puzzle Solitaire made containing a secret answer showing Solitaire's earnest feelings for Freecell, who then starts envisioning Nonoha as his own mother. Meanwhile, Kaito and the others are greeted by Whist, who wants to create a successor that can surpass God. As Freecell appears to start the puzzle, he forces the Final Ring onto Kaito to try to make him a Phi Brain child, but Kaito manages to break it with his will. Freecell soon proceeds to take Kaito to the location of the Puzzle of God he has made.
