Talk to the blond man in front of the 2-Four Convenience Store. After handing over the Thick Document Envelope, you'll receive 20,000 Fons as a reward.

The Vehicle Destroyer you spoke with in Step 1 is now at the plaza, under a large Sakura tree, near the Phone Booth in Illusion Town. Simply find and speak to him as there's no new commission—just a conversation.

If you try to continue immediately after clearing Step 2, the man may not appear. In that case, advance the in-game time by 1 day to make him appear.

Head back in the direction of the 2-Four Convenience Store in Illusion Town and continue down the opposite sidewalk. You'll eventually spot the Man with his bicycle stuck in a nearby tree. Again, this is just a conversation with no new commission.

After the conversation ends, an email from the Security Office will arrive—check it. After reading the contents, speak to the man for a final time to complete the Lost Tale and unlock the achievement "Vehicle Destroyer."

Talk to the Strange Photographer hiding under the shade of a tree. He will ask you to take a photo of the Anomaly ontop of the nearby tree.

The Kite Anomaly that appears nearby is the photo target, and accidentally killing it will block quest progress.

The Anomaly is on top of the tree in the direction the Photographer is facing—move a little closer and take a photo with the Camera. You can take the pic even if the Anomaly is already aggressive towards you.

When "Photography Target Completed!" appears during the shot, return to the Photographer and report. You'll obtain Fons ×2000 as a reward.

The Anomaly in question is the Vending Machine in the direction the Photographer is facing. Move a little closer and snap a photo with the Camera. After the photo, report to the Photographer to obtain Fons ×2000 as a reward.

The Photographer will appear at his final location under an umbrella in between the Wertheimer Tower and Phone Booth in Unheard Shores. Talk to him and he'll ask for a final photo.

The Photographer may not appear if you're continuing here immediately after clearing Step 5. In such cases, advance in-game time by 1 day and he will appear.

The Carp Flag Anomaly is under the Sakura tree. Approach the Anomaly and take a photo before reporting to the Photographer.

After taking the photo, report to the Photographer to complete the quest. Note that he has transferred from his original position, and moved closer to the Sakura tree. You'll obtain Annulith ×10 as a reward and unlock the achievement "Photo Op with Anomalies."

Talk to the crouching man named "Hazekura" along the roadside in Bridge Crossings. He will ask you to recommend a tourist spot, requiring you to choose from three different options. You will visit all locations in the order they are selected, so you may choose any option freely.

Your next conversation with Hazekura will take place at the location you selected, so make sure to head to the correct area. Hazekura will appear there after advancing the in-game time to the next day.

After selecting the candy shop, advance the in-game time to the next day to make Hazekura appear at the candy shop, "Puka Candy." Speak with him to continue the conversation, and he will ask you to recommend the next location from the remaining options. Choose any option to proceed.

After selecting the Hot Pot Restaurant, advance the in-game time to the next day to make Hazekura appear in front of the restaurant. Speak with him to continue the conversation, and he will ask you to recommend the next location from the remaining options. Choose any option to proceed.

Look for the Kitten and Puppy behind the Jingle Wrangle Pet Store. Approach their empty food bools and select Add Food. to progress the Lost Tale.

After feeding the animals, advance the time forward to 09:00 the next day. If there are more animals behind the pet store, you'll know the Lost Tale is progressing as intended.

After seeing the animals, advance the time forward another 2 days. After waiting for the time to advance, you will automatically receive the Pet's Secret Cafeteria achievement.

Talk to the "Hungry Child" near the vending machine. Since he does not know how to use the vending machine, he will ask you to buy a snack for him. If you accept the request, you will receive 300 Fons as a reward.

The Hungry Child appears on sunny days between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM.

Use the Fons you received to purchase a "Cool-lala Spicy Snack" from the vending machine. If you already own a "Cool-lala Spicy Snack," you can skip this step.

With the "Cool-lala Spicy Snack" in your possession, talk to the boy to give him the snack and clear the quest. You'll get the Achievement and a "Brand New Marble".

In the Garage with the Racing area, talk to the "Troubled Car Designer" standing outside the shop.

Summon a vehicle on the road, enter it, and drive it near the man before getting out and speaking to him again to complete the quest. Note that motorcycles do not count for this objective, so you must use a car-type vehicle.

The Achievement may not unlock after showing him only one vehicle. If this happens, bring a second vehicle and repeat the process. Borrowed vehicles can also be used for this objective, so if you do not own another car, you can take one from the road nearby.

Talk to the Manga Editor standing outside and knocking on the house door. To continue the quest, you must meet the Manga Artist, so select the dialogue option, "Get the Editor Away."

The Manga Editor appears on sunny days between 7 AM and 8 PM.

After selecting the option to make the editor leave, the man will slowly walk away. Once enough time has passed, you will be able to enter the house, so wait briefly before entering the room he was knocking on.

Once the house becomes accessible, head to the back of the room and speak with the Cake Sweeper Manga Artist hiding in the rear room. Talking to her will complete the quest.

Initiate the Omnic Crisis...? Lost Tale by interacting with the Working Robot and selecting the Let it be. option.

Escort the Working Robot until it bumps into other robots. There's nothing to do at this point other than to advance the time to the following day.

The goal is to wait for the Working Robot to return to its original position, next to the service counter. If advancing time doesn't work, try to relogin or try to advance the time to the next day until the Working Robot moves back. Some reports say that you might have to do this multiple times.

On a Sunny day between 6:00 AM and 11:00 PM, go to the bench along Fiscus Avenue in Wertheimer Tower, Illusion Town, and interact with the radio beside the seated man.

After activating the radio, switch the channel about two times. Make sure the man standing speaks before heading to the next location.

Head south from Wertheimer Tower toward Fiscus Avenue to find the "Stubborn Citizen" from Location 1 and speak with him. If he does not appear immediately after completing Step 1, advance the in-game time by one day and re-log before checking again.

The Stubborn Citizen normally appears in line on Sunny days, but he can also be found at night even when other NPCs are absent. If he still does not appear after adjusting the time or re-logging, you may not have changed the radio correctly in Step 1. Return to the radio and switch the channel again to confirm.

The target students are located inside Clement Academy, so you will need to infiltrate the campus.

Once you're on the academy grounds, enter the main building from the north entrance.

Proceed further down the school hallway past the central area, and you will find three students standing together. Speak with them to hear rumors about the "Devil's Shadow." After talking to them a second time, they will reveal the location and the time it appears.

The students appear between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM, so adjust the time to match their appearance time.

Follow the information from the students and head to the rooftop of the building north of the academy.

When you head to the rooftop, the "Devil's Shadow" will appear nearby. Approach the light source, and the "Close" interaction option will appear. Select it to turn off the light.

The Devil's Shadow appears between Midnight and 5:00 AM, so adjust the time to match its appearance time. Also, it will not appear if you haven't spoken to the students in step 3, so be sure to proceed in order.

After turning off the light, you can investigate the Devil's Shadow (Gigafluff). Investigate it to obtain the furniture item "Gigafluff - The Strong" and complete the quest.

Talk to the Talkative Old Man in the alley behind Flamingo Avenue in New Herland District.

Talk to the girl at the location overlooking the coast in Hethereau's Unheard Shores. You'll hear her say she wants to see the strange sight of a black shadow moving when the train passes by again.

Head to the Unheard Shores Train Station, which is very close to the Step 1 location.

A train will arrive and stop at the station. Board the stopped train and remain on top of it until it departs.

Once the train departs, it will travel toward the coastline visible from the Step 1 location. When the train reaches a position within the girl's line of sight from the bridge, use Skia's skill while standing on top of the train. Afterward, speak with the girl from Step 1 again to hear her mention that she saw the black shadow once more.

Talk to the shopkeeper at the intersection in front of the clothing store "Q³". She will say that she wants to meet Nanally.

Talk to her while your controlled character is Nanally. Just having a conversation will clear the quest, and you will receive 50,000 Fons as a reward.

Simply obtaining Nanally is only enough to make the Lost Tale appear. Additional conditions must be met, as the quest cannot be completed by speaking to the NPC alone.
