• A massive White Whale star beast attacks them immediately. Isaac freezes it with his Authority Spell, Arrogant Turtle, but chooses not to kill it because its enormous body would make the battle unnecessarily difficult.
• Inside the Star Sea, everyone’s perception is severely restricted. Isaac, however, uses the Dimension World to enhance his awareness and realizes that the Star Sea exists independently of the real world, likely because it formed from the corpses of fallen Star Gods.
• Isaac concludes that the Star Sea is especially suited to Evil God Churches, making it a dangerous gathering place for powerful villains and cults.
• Using the Dimension World, Authority Analysis, and a starry magical projection, Isaac searches for Remy Gallard. He identifies two possible locations, recognizing that Remy has concealed his true position through mystery.
