When Silver Fox finally wakes up, she seems to have amnesia and can't remember why she was following the protaganist. The party meets [[Capybara/Nexon Game|Capybara]], the hot springs specialist, who tells them of a hot spring with the effect of helping restore memories.

As the group travels, Mirai explains research about Celliens, including how they can steal [[Glossary#Sparkle|Sparkle]] and copy forms. Along the way, they run into Cerval in a hot spring. While White Rhino is still suspicious of her, Serval wants to bring her along, and she doesn't seem dangerous in her current state. So far the party has referred to her only as "Fake Serval", but Serval insists on giving her a name of her own - "Cerval", a name which appears to make her happy.

Serval finds a "Super Secret Hot Spring" which is in reality just a cold fountain. Silver Fox jumps in and regains her memory, but it is unclear if this is caused by the spring itself or the protaganist's amulet, which glows while they have a dream inside the water. Silver Fox explains that she was ordered to secretly protect the party by [[Oinari-sama/Nexon_Game|Oinari-sama]]. Oinari-sama is staying in Park Central, which has been shut down due to the Celliens. Afterward, Cerval goes into a trance as she is controlled by the Queen, summoning a giant Cellien. The Cellien is defeated, but Cerval escapes and the group begins to see how much danger she can pose.

Meanwhile, the party catches up with Cerval. They appear to defeat the Birdien, but Cerval uses her power to strengthen it again and escape. The Friends follow her into the Gokoku Region, where they hear [[Margay/Nexon Game|Margay]] is planning some sort of event.

After the protaganist's team completes the race, their amulet glows once again. This time they have a memory of secretly raising a small fox. Upon hearing the story, Serval becomes emotional, but is unable to explain why.

The party is taken to see [[Shisa Lefty/Nexon Game|Shisa Lefty]] and [[Shisa Right/Nexon Game|Shisa Right]], two god-like Friends based on the Area's guardian animals. The Shisas serve them as guests for the night, and say they have someone investigating Cerval's whereabouts, on which they should receive a report in the morning. During the night, Mirai tells the protaganist more about Professor Kako, who she sees as a big sister. She met Kako at a zoo, and her love and knowledge of animals is what inspired Mirai to eventually come to Japari Park. She also reveals that Kako lost her parents when she was young - but despite this, she was able to achieve her dream of working so closely with animals.

In the morning, the Shisas tell the party what they've learned. Cerval is currently on an island being guarded by several powerful, evolved black Celliens. The party also learns that Oinari-sama is in battle with the Cellien Queen in Park Central, currently in a stalemate. The Shisas use the information gathered from their reports to deduce the Queen's plans. They believe she plans to use Cerval's stolen sparkle to invoke a large-scale "Ultimate Cell Harmony" instead of a Kemo Harmony - an event that would cause all Celliens in the park to rapidly evolve and steal all Sparkle. Knowing this would spell disaster, the party resolves to stop the Queen's plan at all costs.

The Friends modify the Japari Bus so that it can travel in the sea. They meet the dolphins again along with [[Blue Whale]], who pull it along underwater to increase their speed and stealth against the Celliens. They run into the Shisas, who were fighting on a different island to act as a diversion for the Celliens. Silver asks the Shisas how they plan to get back the specialness stolen by Cerval when they do run into her. They respond that the only way that they know involves killing Cerval. Serval immediately rejects the idea, wanting to call off the mission. The other Friends try to calm her down from any rash decisions, knowing the alternative would put the world in danger. However, the Friends who have accompanied the protaganist on their journey understand Serval's hesitance, and start to wonder what the right thing to do really is.

The party runs into [[Okinawa Rail/Nexon Game|Okinawa Rail]] and [[Habu/Nexon Game|Habu]], who were sent to help them. As they near their destination, the Friends think of all the times Serval has helped them. They know Serval has the strongest bond with Cerval compared to anyone else, so they decide to trust her with her choice, no matter what she chooses to do with Cerval. Serval knows an immense amount of pressure is being put on her, but they continue forward anyway.

Near the Waterside Restaurant, White Rhino and water Friends like the members of [[PIP]] defeat a giant Cellien creating a huge torrent of water. After the battle the others stay to clean up the Area, as some things were washed away by the current. While they clean, PIP performs a song with [[Bearded Seal/Nexon Game|Bearded Seal]]. White Rhino heads back to Serval.

Celliens at the Warehouse Area have created a lot of snow. Silver Fox and others try to find the real Cellien amidst a bunch of Cellien-shaped snow sculptures. Silver Fox creates an invention to improve the Wolf Confederation's sense of smell, so they can sniff out the real one. After defeating it, Silver Fox heads back to protect the protaganist. The others stay behind to build their own snow sculptures so that the landscape doesn't look so lonely.

Serval waits in front of Kemono Castle, once again debating what to do with the salt given to her by the Shisas. With all seven giant Celliens defeated, the barrier to the castle finally disappears. The protaganist enters along with Serval and Mirai. Inside, Oinari-sama can be seen talking to Cerval, aware of the tragedy about to occur with her Sparkle. Cerval, now clearly completely under the Queen's influence, can only respond by calling Oinari-sama a nuisance.

===Chapter 10===
Oinari-sama greets the protagonist, but expresses regret that they had to meet under such dire circumstances. She explains that she has been powering her own barrier to keep the Queen contained within the castle and that prevents Cerval from passing through to reach her. Cerval appears to recognize Serval, having just enough awareness to say Serval's name between moans of pain. She is unable to break the Queen's control of her mind. The Queen increases her strength and the barrier finally shatters. Cerval bids goodbye to Serval, before continuing through to the Queen.
 
The Cellien Queen's voice is heard from the room beyond, reminding them that Cerval will be no more - that once she delivers her special Sparkle to the Queen, she will revert into a normal Cellien. She states that it is natural for all things to fade and die out, but Celliens have the ability to preserve themselves forever and reproduce Sparkle that is otherwise lost. Mirai becomes disturbed to hear the Queen use the some of the same terminology as Kako in her speech, and wonders if the Queen's thoughts are a warped version of her friend's stolen Sparkle. Oinari-sama insists that they don't listen to her. Unfortunately, Oinari-sama's power has been too drained for her to help any further, and ultimately laments her inability to do more to save Cerval. She tells the party that she believes in them to save, but warns them of the Queen's considerable danger, telling them to retreat if necessary.
 
Mirai continues thinking about the Queen's voice from earlier, and tells her idea to Serval and the protagonist. She believes the Queen might be to Kako what Cerval is to Serval, and hopes they might be able to settle reach a resolution peacefully the same way Cerval was able to understand them. She confidently leads the party into the Queen's room. Mirai attempts to reason with the Queen to stop, appealing to Kako's love of the Park and all of the animals. However, the Queen cannot be reasoned with. She shows no sign of listening to Mirai's heartfelt plea, and simply continuously repeats her previous speech about Sparkle verbatim. Serval and Mirai are forced to conclude that the Queen is nothing like Cerval, and that this is the embodiment of the Cellien method of evolution; to mindlessly copy and replay, with no sense of free will.
 
The Queen begins extracting the "special Sparkle" from Cerval. Meanwhile, the rest of the party catches up to Serval and returns to the castle after having defeated their respective Celliens. Together they throw everything they have at the Queen, but are hardly able to make a dent in her defenses. Cerval, having been touched by the Queen directly, becomes completely enslaved and is forced to turn against her friends. Mirai sadly speculates that half of Cerval's Sparkle has already been absorbed by the Queen. After the party wins against her in one more fight, Serval stands by Cerval's side with the Salt Amulet knowing this is her final opportunity to use it and take back her Sparkle. The others stand by in support of the difficult choice she is about to make. To Serval's surprise, Cerval talks to her directly, thanking her for always thinking of her. However, she is forced to say goodbye, telling her the "it" is already gone, and that she won't be able to stay as Serval's friend. Serval tearfully prepares herself to use the salt.
 
Suddenly, the castle's display monitor turns on. Margay appears on the screen, announcing she has finished the movie they recorded earlier and will be broadcasting it now, either unaware or not caring that they're in the middle of a climactic battle. However, Arai-san switches the reel to near the end of the film, skipping ahead to the climactic scene between Serval and Cerval. On the screen, Cerval calls Serval her friend, saying she can always hear her voice. Margay gets cut off, frustrated that she "showed off the best part first", but the scene has already taken effect on Serval. Loudly declaring that she is her friend too, Serval's determination to save Cerval is renewed. Serval promptly eats the salt as a refusal to use it for its intended purpose, before fainting due to the excessive salt consumption. Cerval, seeing her friend's deep feelings, repeats Serval's name, her voice growing louder each time. To the bemusement of the Friends, Cerval's body begins glowing brightly.
 
The Cellien Queen identifies the light as that of a Sparkle, wondering how it could be possible for Cerval, a Cellien, to create her own Sparkle. Cerval, now with a new form as a Friend, responds that she's no longer a Cellien, and won't be following the Queen's orders anymore. Cerval officially joins the protagonist as a party member, promising to do her best in battle alongside them. The Queen is clearly taken aback by the defiance, but she states that it doesn't matter; she's already extracted almost all of Cerval's special Sparkle, and drained Park Central of the Sparkle that acted as a barrier against her spreading Cell Harmony. She announces the only change in her plans is that she must now dispose of Cerval, whom she refers to as a "mutant".
 
With that, the party begins its battle against their most powerful opponent. In the middle of the fight, unable to defeat the party yet the Queen decides to activate Cell Harmony. The Queen begins glowing, and the Friends brace themselves for the worst as she attempts spread Cell Harmony throughout the Park with all of her power. To the Queen's confusion, nothing happens.
 
Outside, the Friends who helped defeat the Celliens in Park Central are playing. Even though the situation seemed dire and devoid of Sparkle, Friends from all over the Park are seen enjoying themselves to the fullest, giving Park Central a new Sparkle. The Sparkle is powerful enough to cancel out the effects of Cell Harmony, creating a new barrier. Unable to spread Cell Harmony anywhere else, the Queen directs all of its effects into herself, evolving from her humanoid form into an absolutely monstrous Cellien. The party isn't deterred, as if anything they are empowered by witnessing the tremendous Sparkle of the Friends around them. Together they prepare for the real final battle against the Queen. The fight is long and difficult, but they emerge victorious. Upon defeat and unable to push her evolution any further, the Queen reverts to her true form - a harmless, ordinary Cellien.
 
The Queen defeated, Oinari-sama can finally properly greet the party. She explains that the reason she sent Silver Fox on her mission to protect the protagonist is because of the amulet they're in possession of - a "Kemono Amulet". Upon seeing the amulet, she is confused as to why it has no crest, unable to explain who gave them the amulet to lead them here in the first place. Oinari-sama offers to apply her own crest to the amulet, which will increase it's protection in future battles.
 
With the crisis taken care of, reconstruction is on its way so that Japari Park can be officially reopened. Furthermore, Kako has woken up from her coma and is making a swift recovery. Due to their heroism and being beloved by the Friends, the protagonist becomes the new Park Director. Mirai offers to give the Friends another tour of the Park now that they can fully enjoy it without worrying about chasing down Cerval or stopping the Queen, a plan which everyone readily agrees to. In the story's final scene, Serval shares Japari Buns with the protagonist. She reminisces on the memories the two made on their adventure, and all the friends she got to meet, including Cerval. Serval promises that they'll continue to have more fun adventures, and meet even more new Friends in Japari Park.
