Shiro discloses to Kyosuke that his sister Yui commands the Kirahara Corporation and desires the Flickers to locate Runa. He explains that he intentionally withheld aid from his mother, believing the resulting mental anguish was necessary to awaken his dormant SoulTaker abilities. Concurrently, Komugi prepares to battle Yui's new creation, the SoulAnubis monster. This revelation highlights the tragic choices Shiro made to unlock his mutant potential while his sister pursues her goals through the Kirahara Corporation. The narrative tension rises as Komugi faces the SoulAnubis threat, linking Shiro's past sacrifices to the current conflict involving Yui's forces and the ongoing search for Runa within the Kirahara Corporation's operations.
