• Kang De began dragging the bodies into the bushes to bury them, and Cleveland asked if he was all right; Kang De quietly said he was.

• Kang De, A Xing, and the knight buried the elves’ bodies, covered the blood, and had animals foul the area to mask the scent.
• Kang De considered how the elves might respond to continued casualties and learned from Tina that they might burn the forest, so he decided they needed to reveal the ruins and give the elves a reason to hold back.
• Kang De recruited the parrot to act as a traitor and lure the elves into an ambush, warning it not to speak Chinese and arranging for Pigeon to stay in contact.
• Kang De studied the patrol map and chose to avoid groups led by high-ranking officers, then offered Cleveland a stun baton.

As the group prepared to attack a fourth squad, the kangaroo took up a great warbow and showed unexpected confidence, hinting that it had used one before.

• Cleveland killed the last elf in the third ambushed group and collected his enchanted pendant while Kang De recorded what he learned about elven bodies.
• After the group gathered weapons and hid the corpses, Kang De decided they had killed enough elves and explained that they would lure the survivors toward the rift, then try to capture the Wings of Wayne.
• Kang De selected a fourth group of nine elves near the rift, including two officers, and insisted on helping with the attack despite Cleveland's objections.

• Kang De and the knight reached the planned ambush site while the kangaroo went into the woods to hide.
• Miss Fulan tried to draw the elves’ attention, but Sir Halen Nigulezi ordered his soldiers to stay alert and demanded that she surrender.
• The kangaroo shot Halen’s arrow apart, severed his bowstring, and then struck his throat with a second arrow.
• The other elf sergeants fired volleys toward the kangaroo, which leaped through the grass with its longbow as Halen died.

• The kangaroo dodged the elves’ volleys and killed their officers and soldiers with expertly aimed arrows while Cleveland fought alongside it.
• Cleveland saluted the kangaroo, and Kang De recalled how earlier attempts by the animals to teach him had ended in fights.
• Tina suggested that the kangaroo hunt more elf squads, and it agreed to leave with arrows while Kang De asked Pigeon to have the bar-headed goose watch it.
• At the elves’ temporary shore camp, Captain Taize played with a golden parrot and promised to take it aboard the Wings of Wayne.

• Kang De told the princess that the elves had found Clow Reed’s Skull Crusher.

Sir Taize and the master found many powerful relics on the island and resolved to eliminate the Goths before claiming its secrets for the Dusk Moon Dynasty. After the master returned to the Wings of Wayne with the Azoth dagger and Taize’s parrot, Taize learned that a scouting party had gone missing.

• Sir Taize received the master’s letter urging a thorough search for sacred artifact fragments, then collected several newly discovered relics, including a dagger engraved with “Azoth.”

• Sir Taize learned that six scouting teams had gone missing and ordered the remaining teams to withdraw while sailors watched the island’s surrounding waters.
• Sir Taize concluded that the Goths had chosen their targets carefully and planned to find and destroy their hidden warship once the Wings of Wayne was repaired.
• Master Laclais urged the captain to begin searching the island immediately, but the captain sided with Sir Taize’s plan to wait for repairs.
• Master Laclais left the captain in anger, and the parrot flew through the warship toward its magical core chamber.

A parrot sabotaged the Wings of Wayne’s magitech core, delaying repairs and intensifying the dispute over how to pursue the Goths. Kang De watched the elves argue and prepared fireworks to lure them toward the island.

• The parrot killed two guards, entered the magitech core chamber, and triggered an explosion by slashing its magic patterns.
• Laclais learned that the blast had worsened the warship’s damage and extended repairs to more than two days, then urged the captain to pressure Sir Taize to attack sooner.
• The captain and Laclais met Sir Taize, who refused to advance without more intelligence, and the leaders argued over whether to hurry or wait for reconnaissance.
• Pigeon relayed the beach gathering to Kang De, who concluded that the elves were divided and decided to lure them with fireworks infused with Elements.

Kang De and Tina discussed the Goths’ war with the elves, and Tina assured him that she had never lied about their cause. As evening fell, Kang De’s fireworks convinced the elves to prepare to depart, bringing his plan to capture their warship closer to action.

• Kang De told Tina that damage aboard the elven ship had delayed it, and he agreed she could guide the operation while staying off the ship.

As the Goths prepared to seize the Wings of Wayne, Master Laclais discovered that the sacred dagger fragment was missing and felt a chill behind him.

• Kang De reflected on how gunpowder and magic could be combined, while weighing his desire to return home against the possibility of fighting alongside Tina and the Goths.
