The children learn from the Minoshiro the truth about the tragic history of the world since the advent of humanity's psychokinetic powers 1000 years ago until they are intercepted by a monk who kills the False Minoshiro, seals their powers, and takes them away to be judged for their actions. Due to killing the False Minoshiro, the monk experiences a phenomenon called the death feedback, which hinders his ability to think properly. On the way, they are attacked by a group of Monster Rats, who are slain by the monk until a Balloon Dog leaps toward them.
