Is the Il Palazzo commanding ACROSS real or fake, and what does that mean, exactly? The original reunited team of Excel, Hyatt and Elgala stand before the throne of their lord—only for Excel to perform a blasphemous gesture of disloyalty, and for Il Palazzo to issue the most shocking order Excel could ever imagine! As Shiouji comes to realize the truth about both his father and his mother, Matsuya is ready to make a decision that will open the forbidden door at last. Warning: you have been misled!
The final volume is here! Excel, who had seemed back to her old self, is now a stranger once more after making contact with something—or someone—beyond the forbidden portal. Will she be the captive in the end of a tragedy that happened so long ago? There is but one power that can prevail over all the mysteries of human knowledge—namely, the power of Excel's ego. You didn't think she'd ever forgotten about world conquest...did you? The ignorant masses will kneel at last before the spectacular conclusion of the aptly named...Excel Saga!
