Wax investigated a series of bodies at [[Winsting Innate|Lord Winsting]]'s manor, where a series of people were killed by a Steelrunner. Knowing that he’d likely need it soon, Wayne began storing up health. Wax wanted Wayne to got to [[The Village]], but Wayne had to preform a special task he always did on the first of the month. He went to [[Elendel University]], sneaking in to meet with [[Allriandre]], the daughter of the man he killed.

Wayne and SterisMarasi went to [[Lady ZoBell's party]], but were turned away by the bouncer. Wayne used his bend alloybendalloy to determine that they were on a list of people to be kept out of the party, a petty move by the governor's bodyguard. Wayne decided to act the part of Professor Hanlanaze, a mathematics professor, to get into the party with Marasi as his assistant.

|Wayne convincing the Set soldiersguards to flee{{book ref|mb7|63}}

Wax figured out that the Set would be launching the bomb soon from the highest building in Bilming, the Shaw (named for being reminiscent of the spires of [[Kredik Shaw]]). The two fought their way up the tower, with Wax taking out most of the guardsSet soldiers guarding the bomb. When they got to the top, Wayne convinced the last group of guards to put down their weapons and flee, rather than being killed. He reasoned that they were simply working, frightened, security guards who were unaware of the activities the Set were up to, rather than the committed Set soldiers Wax and he had just wiped out. They came across their doubles, Dumad and Getruda, and fought them one last time. Instead of fighting their own doubles, they decided to fight each other's.{{book ref|mb7|63}} Wayne was able to stay close to Dumad by grappling him, and getting Dumad to take them into the sky using a duralumin-enhanced steelpushSteelpush. He swiped the aluminum flask Dumad's metalused vialsto replenish his metals after using duralumin burned them away, denying Dumad the ability to Steelpush, causing them to fall a great distance, killing Dumad. Despite the satisfaction of defeating Dumad, Wayne was disappointed that they had fallen too fast for Wayne to say the witty remark he had come up with.{{book ref|mb7|65}} They discovered that the bomb atop the Shaw is a decoy, and that the real bomb is on a ship, already en route to Elendel.{{book ref|mb7|66}}

Wayne and Wax gave themselvesrecovered hemalurgic spikes from the corpses of Dumad and Getruda and spiked themselves with them, giving Wayne the powers of a Coinshot, and allowing Wax to use duralumin and steel to fly them out to the ship where the bomb was. They cleared out the ship of enemies, but discovered that they couldn't disarm the bomb without it going off.{{book ref|mb7|71}} Wayne figured out a way to lessen the explosion using bendalloy and steel. Harmony spoke to him, and told him it could work. Knowing his plan wouldn't need Wax, Wayne used a steelpushSteelpush to send Wax flying off the ship. Wayne ingested a small bit of lerasium, originally given to Wax by Harmony, and goes down into the ship's hold to where the bomb is, which was composed of three barrel devices with explosives.{{book ref|mb7|71}}

Harmony told Wayne that messing with one barrel would cause the others to immediately go off. Before forming his speed bubble, Wayne pulled out and consumed every bit of bendalloy he had on his person - a total of ''seventeen'' pouches; an amount which astounded even Harmony. At Harmony's command, Wayne created a perfect speed bubble.{{book ref|mb7|71}}

After his death, Wayne briefly spoke with Harmony before passing into the [[Beyond]]. He rejoiced in his victory, happy to have saved the world. He asked Harmony if he made the biggest explosion that a person ever made, which Harmony confirms as correct. Satisfied, Wayne passed into the Beyond.{{book ref|mb7|74}} Wayne had various things put in his will, which were carried out after his death. He granted a large sum of money to both Ranette and Allriandre{{book ref|mb7|epilogue 5}}{{book ref|mb7|3}}, left his lucky hat to Marasi, and arranged for a variety of random objects to be discreetly delivered to Wax over time (one example of this is a stuffed frog being delivered to Wax two years after Wayne’s death).{{book ref|mb7|epilogue 7}} Two years after his death, a bronze statue was made of him and placed in the Field of Rebirth to honor his memory.{{book ref|mb7|epilogue 7}}
