Stranger.Shiroe sifts through the documents sent by Roe 2 and learns new information about the world. Afterwards he pays a visit to the Brigade of the West Wind and asks of their encounter with the Genius monster. The Round Table gather some time later and discuss additional encounters with three more Genius monsters around the city. Afterwards, Karashin brings Isaac up to speed with the Round Table's latest meeting. At the same time, Nyanta and Shiroe take note of the adventurers who have lost the resolve to continue. However thanks to Serara, Nyanta realizes that the younger adventurers can still be optimistic about their futures. The following night, Shiroe lays out his hypothesis about their current reality to the senior Log Horizon members, and reveals the information sent to him by Roe 2. Roe 2 explains that she is an artificial being created by an alien race that was sent to search other universes for a resource called "empathions". She then warns them of the Genius monsters who will obtain empathions at any cost. Finally, Shiroe decides to trust her words when she explains that her companions on the Moon may be able to assist the adventurers in returning to their own reality.
