Not much is known at this time but there are some things we know. The story takes place when the party has been living on Earth with Claude for 6 months. The party wished to return to Expel so Claude decides to sent a ship to pick them up tomorrow. But Claude was once aging asked to be sent on another mission, he decides to bring Bowman, Ernest, Chiasto, Noel, and Celine.
After they left Rena was thinking if she would stay with Claude or return home. Opera decided to send the rest of the group on a vaction to her home planet. The Earth Federation agreed but with one setback Opera would have to deliver a mysterious mineral to her high command to be identifed.
The next day the group leaves but while they are traveling in space they are attacked by a mysterious Alien ship after being seperated they meet up with each other only to find that Indaleico is back. After finding out that Cyril is alive and his new twin counterpart Jan Lucifer joined the Wiseman's group he tells them that he will use the mysterious mineral recovered from Opera's ship to revive the defeated Wiseman and control the Universe once aging.
