• Yulin reunited with Shien and followed him alongside Lilith, while Gratia and Blady refused to let him enter Aiyi’s room because Aiyi did not want to see him.

• Hertia said the Ice Maiden Tribe remained loyal to Lady Moon Demon, and Shafna explained that she disliked their unquestioning obedience.

Shien learned why Hertia wanted him to save the frozen members of the Ice Maiden Tribe: their Ice Net Flow sealed space and time, making the ice difficult to undo without a power that could affect both. Shafna told him that his Hero’s Holy Sword might be able to free them, and the chapter left Shien facing the task.

• Aiyi grabbed Shien and reminded him that she had promised to take him somewhere that could increase his strength, while Gratia and Blady objected that the place would not work on humans.
• Aiyi sent the officials back to Supreme Castle and warned them to keep the Ice Maiden Village secret, leaving herself, Shien, and Shafna behind.
• Shafna slapped Shien after reading his thoughts, and Shien struck Aiyi’s head while joking about itchy hands, prompting Aiyi to smash a boulder with her fist.
• Shien slapped Shafna and teleported away, so Shafna and then Aiyi chased after him.
• Milu, Lyd, Kamina, and Sera gathered outside Central City, where Sera explained that she had prepared for the Ice Maiden Tribe’s return and suspected someone had undone Hertia’s Ice Net Flow.

Shien met the six Devil sisters, evaded their angry attacks by turning their gathering into a chaotic game, and hurried them toward a volcanic lake. Lyd revealed that the lake held a treasure left by their mother, the Demon King, and Shien prepared to enter it.

• Shien hid behind Sera and fought Milu for the hiding spot before Shafna and Aiyi arrived and tried to attack him.
• Shien threw Milu at Shafna and Aiyi, then told Milu to grab them, leaving the Devils tangled together.
• Shien insisted the group hurry because he wanted to grow stronger, picked up Lyd to lead the way, and flew off while Shafna and Aiyi chased him.
• Shien led the exhausted group on a long chase until they reached a lake in the crater of a volcanic mountain.
• Lyd told Shien that the lake contained a treasure left by their mother, the Demon King, whose value rivaled humanity's Inner Sanctum.

Shien and the six Demonkind descended to the sealed Demon Lord's Mansion beneath a mountain lake, where they explained its power to turn sacrificed magic into strength. The Demonkind offered to sacrifice small portions of their own power to help Shien grow, and he accepted after confirming the cost would be negligible.

• Shien and the six Demonkind dived through the lake and reached the underwater Demon Lord's Mansion, which he recognized as Hanamaru Mansion.
• Sera explained that this was the holy land forged by Demon Lord Clatiss, where magic power could be converted into strength and passed to another person.
• Aiyi described how Demonkind had once sacrificed their power to strengthen younger clan members, and Sera explained the mansion's deadly protections.
• Aiyi told Shien that all six Demonkind planned to provide magic power for him, but Shien immediately turned to leave rather than accept their sacrifice.
• Shafna, Aiyi, Lidas, Sera, and Kamina reassured Shien that sharing the cost would have little effect on them and could help him reach Limit-tier.
• After Sera explained that the Demonkind had other reasons for helping him, Shien trusted Aiyi and accepted their offer.

The six Demon Lords brought the unconscious Shien to the Demon Transformation Pool, intending to test whether he could use its power and awaken their mother’s consciousness in the Demon Lord’s Jade. As their magic power flowed into him, the pool transformed it into rainbow currents that entered his body.

• Sera explained that the Demon Transformation Pool absorbed magic power and converted it into strength.
• Shafna used her Mind-Weaving Demon power to put Shien to sleep, and the sisters blindfolded him and blocked his senses.
• The Demon Lords entered the pool with Shien and formed a hexagon around him.
• Shafna revealed that the pool normally worked only on demons, so Shien’s response could confirm Sera’s suspicions.
• Sera and her sisters released their magic power into the water, which transformed it into rainbow currents that surged into Shien.

Shien absorbed the Six Great Demon Lords’ magic power in the Demon Transformation Pool, rapidly leveling up and breaking through to the Limit-tier. His breakthrough revealed three intertwined powers and caused a red jewel to emerge, stirring Nien, the demon young lady, her maid, and a sleeping Goddess.

• Shien’s magic power erupted as he absorbed the six Demon Lords’ offerings, forcing Milu and Shafna to contain the destructive waves inside the Demon Lord’s Mansion.
• Shien leveled from ninety-five to ninety-six, and the Demon Lords increased their sacrifices as his rapid growth demanded far more magic power than expected.
• Shien advanced through further levels to ninety-nine, and the six Demon Lords continued feeding him magic power despite the growing cost to their own strength.
• The Demon Lords’ combined power helped Shien break through to the Limit-tier, while his Holy Sword shattered three seals and three distinct radiances appeared around him.
• A red jewel emerged above Shien, exciting the six Demon Lords and drawing reactions from Nien, the demon young lady and her maid, and a Goddess who woke in a sea of flowers.

Shien’s dream continued, revealing how Omnis and Clatiss repeatedly clashed as Omnis created worlds and Clatiss’s uncontrolled power destroyed them. After Omnis created Omnipotens, Clatiss met Nien, who welcomed her as a friend, and the dream ended with Clatiss smiling.

• Shien watched newborn Omnis create the first world, then saw newborn Clatiss awaken and follow her into it.

• Clatiss encountered Nien in a sea of flowers and introduced herself for the first time.
• Nien introduced herself as a Hero, offered Clatiss her hand, and declared that they were friends; Shien’s dream ended with Clatiss smiling.

The Demon Lord’s Jade restored the Demon Lords’ lost power and stirred the hidden force inside Shien, while Nien realized that force might soon awaken fully. The Supreme God appeared before Nien, revealed that Shien was also her Hero, and disclosed that she had only learned of Nien a thousand years ago.

• The Demon Lord’s Jade replenished the Demon Lords’ power, passed over them as though comforting them, then returned to Shien, who woke to find the Demon Lords embracing him.
• Nien watched Shien and concluded that the Demon Lord’s Jade, the Demon Lords’ magic, and his rise to Limit-tier had awakened a hidden power within him.
• The Supreme God appeared in Nien’s temple and warned that sealing Shien’s power would cost Nien her Goddess form.
• Nien urged the Supreme God to return to her sleep, but the Goddess said Shien was also her Hero and that she would watch over him.
• The Supreme God revealed that she had only learned of Nien a thousand years earlier and that a pitiful woman, not the Goddess, had used Nien to summon Heroes.

After emerging from the Demon Transformation Pool, Shien discovered that he had reached Level 100 and could wield the Holy Sword’s power freely. The demon beings confirmed that the Demon Lord’s Jade remained within him and resolved to protect him, while Aiyi insisted he stay by her side.

• Shien sensed that his magic power had doubled, reached Level 100, and gained the ability to control and conceal the Holy Sword’s power.
• Shien found that Heaven’s Grace and Fate Principle had vanished, replaced by a currently unusable Unique Skill describing the fusion of three supreme concepts.
• Shien boasted that he could take on all six demon beings, lifting their spirits before they assured him they had suffered no lasting losses.
• The demon beings confirmed that the Demon Lord’s Jade was inside Shien and concluded that they must protect him because their mother remained with him.
