The chapter opens with a flashback to the previous chapter, in which we learn that Hiromi and his son had been working on a device that would allow Hiromi to control his own destiny. The flashback shows Hiromi's reaction to the news that he has found his way into the "secret lair" of Yonebayashi. He is furious that he was unable to control the machine, and he vows to tear the device free. He asks who the heck is Hiromi, and learns that he is the one who has found him. He also learns that the machine is connected to his mother, and that she is the "godmother" of the universe. He vows that he will not allow her to take him, either. He wants to know why he is doing this, and asks if he is actually a demon. He tells Hiromi that he did not want the machine to kill his family, but that he wished for it so that he could control his destiny.
