At last, the story of this beloved light novel, and anime, series continue, as the 11th book has been released in Belgium.
And once again, Shiro and Sora, together with their companions, need to overcome grieveous games to further their plan of challenging the One True God, Tet, himself.
Sora, Shiro, Steph, Jibril and Emir-Eins find themselves somewhere completely unfamiliar: a Spratul, home of the ninth-ranked Ixseed, the Fairies. Next thing they know, a booze guzzling, cigar smoking, foul mouthed Fairy named Foeniculum shows up and announces that unless they partner up into couples, they`ll be trapped there forever... Oh, and the whole thing is being livestreamed. To emerge victorious, Sora must choose one of the ladies as his girlfriend, at last!
But then it dawns on him, they might just as well leave him behind by pairing up with each other! His only chance then would be to obtain a key through the tips of the people viewing are donating. Because it turns out Fairies are nothing more then reality TV loving video streamers, out to see as much love-life drama as possible to nourish themselves. But Sora figures out Foeniculum is in the same boat as them, with the fate of Elkia in the balance. But it seems it is not Elven Guard that is behind it all, but apparently the Dragonias.
Sora and Shiro start to see a way on how to win though, trying to run games their way, and make the games interactive to have the Fairy subscribers and the tips flow in like mad. But the game comes with a serious drwback, as it disrupts the harmony between the siblings as a result of the Fairies actions, causing a breach in communication between them. This results in Shiro thinking she is actually might be romantically in love with Sora.
The emotions wreck her up, resulting in a mental breakdown as she takes over the Spatul of the fairies, transforming it into an apocalyptic wasteland instead. But this "Black Shiro" who turns out to be a lolli dominatrix is hellbend on making sure her brother never wants a girlfriend ever again. In a capture the tower style game, the other girls have two hours to free him from this fate, but they have to stand up to Shiro's superior gaming skills.
But while Black Shiro keeps humiliating Sora, the girls form the Girl-on-Girl Alliance, allowing their forces to grow so big to overpower Shiro by sheer strength of numbers. But as they think they defeated here and break their alliance, Black Shiro starts making a come back, meaning there is someone beside her helping her out. And that can be only one person! Together, they defeat the Alliance, and the game, resulting in everyone being able to leave the Spatul. With the amassed souls, Foeniculum becomes the Fairies agent, and joins the Elkian alliance. Together, they plan to take on Elven Gard, who's agent had indeed beaten Blank for the first time in their lives...
But the plan and how the game came into being is explained, as before their memory loss, the ruler of Dragonia appeared, asking them to take back Elkia and as such save two races from extinction. With the help of Foeniculum, they would try and do so by beating a Spatul created by Fairies enslaved by the Elves. The Commonwealth still faces a broken of faction of other race backed spies, an internal strife looms around the corner. But the member races reforge their bonds and prepare to pick up the pace again after the one time Blank actually lost...
A rather special volume I must say, as I can imagine the Black Shiro part being uneasy on some readers, but never the less it read like a rollercoaster. Now the saddest part is to wait for the next book getting written...
