The children’s saviors turn out to be demons named Mujika and Sonju. The pair claims that their religion forbids them from eating humans.
Emma and Ray visit Sonju while the others are sleeping, intending to ask about what happened to humans thirty years ago as well as what is happening in the world now. Sonju tells them about the state of the world, also relating an old tale about a deal arranged between demons and humanity.
After learning the truth, Emma and Ray decide to escape the demons’ world.
