The all-powerful God that reigned over the whole world, the mighty Moffluno, had used Kaname as his avatar to slay the dark witch!
“Also... I think I know who you are, Yoko-san!” Kaname told her defiantly.
“Curse you! Curse you, bathroom tissue!”
“Just get back to work already, you lousy cop!”
“Gah... gwaaaah!” Yoko let out a death rattle as her body caught fire. In an instant, she was gone, and so the terrible evil was vanquished.
Cia, having regained consciousness, cried into Shinji’s chest. Shinji himself was all aflutter. Despite all their expectations, as far as Kaname could make out, Cia’s player did seem to really be a girl... But her identity remained a secret. She didn’t seem to be a student at Jindai High, at least.
But let the mystery remain a mystery, she decided. In a world like this, it’s all right to let some things go.
Incidentally, Sousuke and Issei were totally dead. And when they met up at school again the next day, they blamed each other and brought their fight into the real world.
As for Kaname, who’d taken out Yoko...
“I did it! I beat her! I took out Yoko! Pretty awesome, huh?!” Kaname declared in shout mode from the tower’s roof.
“What?”
“Seriously?”
“No way!”
The crowd buzzed.
Kaname stood on the edge of the wall and swung around the staff that served as a symbol of Yoko’s evil. “It’s true! Look! I totally beat her! Let’s end the battle without any more unnecessary bloodshed!”
“Ohh...” The royal army’s expressions grew visibly brighter. And in time, they began to shout. They sang the praises of the girl who was their hero and savior.
“Waaaah! She’s the one who did it?!”
“Savior of our land! Banzai!”
“Toilet Paper! Banzai!”
Kaname frowned discontentedly as the Royal Army raised their swords and kept on shouting en masse.
“The hero, Toilet Paper!”
“The beautiful Toilet Paper!”
“All glory to Toilet Paper!”
While Kaname stared in confusion, the cries for Toilet Paper echoed out again and again.
●
The hero’s name became legend. The Royal Knights gave her their highest award, the Medal of Honor, and spent massive funds to erect a giant statue of her in the Pinckney plaza. And even months and years later, the people who lived on the continent still talk about her:
About she who brought peace to their lands.
About she who shone the light to drive away the darkness in a hopeless battle.
About the courageous maiden who had valiantly and selflessly stood against the Queen of Darkness.
Her name... Toilet Paper.
Savior of the land, Toilet Paper.
Those who had been there would never forget her name—Toilet Paper!
Never, never.

○From Baki: “I was wondering. It seemed strange (sweats)”
