The lightning...
All over the dried-up oasis...
Can you get up, Hina?
Yes. I can walk on my own.
These are...
...fireworks?
Is it a reaction from the lightning? It doesn't appear dangerous...
This is...
Look at that one! It kinda looks like a fish.
How pretty...like the sky's turned into an ocean.
...
I've heard rumors about a mineral capable of producing an ion-plasma phenomenon during extremely high-temperature reactions. It's said to even have the potential to shape light...
Why would it be here, though? It's an incredibly rare metal, not to mention very expensive.
...
You were right, Yume. There was treasure here all along.
I thought I would never be able to find the traces...
...of what you left behind...
I was wrong...
Yeah. I was really wrong, Yume.
Wh-Whoa! They're going off so fast now!
I see. That chain reaction must be why it costs nearly ten million yen for just 100 grams.
What?!
What?
That should be around the market price. It's jumped about tenfold in the past two years.
G-Gah! No! Make it stop! Our money is burning! It's all burning up like wildfire!
Sh-Shovel! We need a shovel! Ayane, a shovel!
Unfortunately, I don't just casually carry around a shovel with me...
Well, you should really consider it from now on!
No, please consider carrying around a pickaxe. It'll break the ground more easily.
Are there any methods we can use to halt the explosions?
...None. The reaction will continue until there's nothing left to burn.
Wow! Look at it go! ♧
Hey, Shiroko. Can you call the other Shiroko something else? It's starting to get super confusing.
Then...I'll call her "Small Shiroko."
Rejected. I'm going to grow taller very soon.
Ah. I know. "Weak Shiroko."
Gah, Shiroko! Put your gun down! No shooting!
It's no use. I've experienced things you've yet to experience, I know things you've yet to learn. You cannot fill the gap between...
Yeah. I've fought you once, so I won't lose this time.
Quit it already!!
Wow! Look at that going off all at once! It's the grand finale! What an incredible sight! ♧
...Yeah, it sure is.
Whenever this old-timer tries to say something cool, it always turns out like this, huh?
...Well, I guess it can't be helped.
Heh, heh.
