On Fae Star, the Ailou Race’s advanced civilization faced an unexplained red vortex over Cole City. Piahr watched as the Ort Mobile Unit arrived, and the civilians took heart from its presence.

• The chapter introduced Fae Star, a naturally habitable planet where the Ailou Race had become the dominant civilization and was approaching interstellar travel.
• After returning home from work, Piahr saw a red light outside and discovered a gigantic vortex glowing above Cole City.
• Animals and civilians reacted to the ominous phenomenon, and Piahr packed his belongings to evacuate.
• The Ort Mobile Unit flew toward the vortex, and Piahr and many other civilians felt reassured by the force’s arrival.
• The Ort Mobile Unit’s captain had chosen a low-altitude approach to show the civilians their presence and calm the panic.

The Captain of the Ort Mobile Unit and the President prepared the country for a possible threat emerging from the Great Vortex, which experts believed might become a spatial passage. The leadership decided to destroy it, and the Captain ordered missiles launched as civilians watched, unaware of the danger.

• The Captain of the Ort Mobile Unit sensed danger from the Great Vortex and asked headquarters to prepare military support and strategic weapons.
• The President ordered a national emergency and had military units mobilized and strategic weapons readied.
• An expert told the President that the vortex might form a spatial passage, and officials debated whether it was natural or deliberately opened by a hostile civilization.
• Twenty minutes after the vortex appeared, the leadership decided to destroy it rather than risk an unknown threat.
• The Captain ordered the First Missile Unit to target the vortex while civilians watched the launch preparations excitedly.

The Ort Mobile Unit attacked the Great Vortex with missiles, exposing a singularity that shattered and released a group of Demons onto Fae Star. After a hidden force weakened the plane’s suppression of them, the Demons prepared to wipe out the soldiers and civilians.

• The Captain ordered a missile barrage, but the explosions strengthened the vortex’s energy instead of destroying it.
• The vortex’s energy was sucked into the singularity, which split apart and released several figures before the resulting hole vanished.
• The Captain ordered all units to attack the newcomers, but a Middle Demon’s lightning ring neutralized the missiles, shells, and bullets.
• The Demons felt the plane’s suppression intensify, then the Death Tribulation Flower marks appeared and an unknown force restored much of their strength while erasing their recent memories.
• One Middle Demon ordered the others to kill the troops and spread a vast sea of poisonous mist across the area.

The demons overwhelmed the Ort Mobile Unit and the mechanized forces, treating the invasion as a hunt. Captain died beneath the Four-armed Demon's foot just as the planet's most powerful weapons approached.

• The demons unleashed poison, elemental attacks, and close-combat assaults that devastated the city and killed many soldiers and bystanders.

• Captain demanded to know why the demons had invaded, and the Four-armed Demon answered that they were hunting weaker lifeforms.
• Birdlike demons destroyed the arriving fighter jets, and the Four-armed Demon crushed Captain's chest as he noticed powerful weapons flying toward the battlefield.

A dozen intercontinental missiles struck the demons gathered in the capital, devastating the city, but the demons survived and found the weapons ineffective against them. Convinced the planet could not threaten them, they scattered to hunt as they pleased.

• The Four-armed Demon hurled a corpse into an incoming missile, setting off a chain of explosions among the missiles and devastating much of the city.
• People across the country panicked as communications failed, while officials watched the destruction and hoped the nuclear strike had eliminated the demons.
• The president asked whether the demons could have survived, and his advisor insisted the explosions would have vaporized them.
• The demons appeared unharmed, and a Flame Demon welcomed the heat and radiation as beneficial.
• A demon resembling a python and lion declared that, under their contract, they could each act as they pleased, then vanished to hunt.
• The other demons concluded they could evade the strategic weapons with Spatial Ability and departed in different directions.

Fae Star’s satellites and space station were destroyed as Abyss Demons slaughtered millions across the planet. In the Bottomless Abyss, Orsaga noticed that his Middle Demons were acting disobediently but left the minor problem alone.

• The president ordered warnings issued after learning that the invaders could withstand nuclear weapons.
• The Flame Demon rested in the explosion’s warmth and watched the satellites monitoring him.
• A Demon destroyed a satellite and then obliterated Fae Star’s space station, while the other satellites were also destroyed.

• The Four-armed Demon stopped himself from casting a spell that would destroy a city on a massive scale, then forgot why he had hesitated.

Orsaga traveled with Golanel and Allison to Fae Star in an Elf avatar to avoid the plane’s blacklist, intending to make the planet a safe home for the Elsera Elf Kingdom. They arrived at a city filled with corpses from a Blood Sacrifice Ritual, and Orsaga judged Fae Star suitable for settlement once its contaminated environment was cleaned up.

• Orsaga explained that he used an Elf avatar because the plane had blacklisted his true body after he damaged some decorations there.
• Orsaga, Golanel, and Allison used a Teleportation Array to travel to Fae Star in the Gali Republic.
• Golanel and Allison found the air choked with the stench of corpses and sealed it off with magic before seeing immense piles of dead bodies and swarms of scavengers.
• Orsaga recognized the corpse piles as offerings for a Blood Sacrifice Ritual and said the planet’s bacteria and viruses would need to be cleaned up.
• Orsaga showed Golanel and Allison a projection of Fae Star and explained that it could support the Elsera Elf Kingdom and was far from nearby powers.

Orsaga arranged for Allison and the Elsera Elf Kingdom’s experts to defeat Abyss Demons and earn the plane’s favor, helping the elves establish themselves in Fae Star. After the group entered a Space Door, Allison erased the nearby corpse-filled ruins, then followed Orsaga and Golanel through.

• Orsaga told Allison to gather capable Elf race experts and attack the Abyss Demons marked on his projection, explaining that defeating them could win the Plane Consciousness’s goodwill.
• Allison summoned several dozen elf experts’ spirit bodies, and the Elf King agreed to fight the demons after learning Orsaga had secretly weakened them.
• The spirit bodies returned to their own bodies and adapted to the plane’s suppression, though the Elf King worried that the force had reduced his strength to one-sixth.
• Orsaga opened a Space Door, and the Elf King led the experts through it toward the Abyss Demons.
• Allison cast a sphere of light that erased the corpses, vermin, and surrounding buildings, then entered the portal with Orsaga and Golanel.

• The Middle Demons realized their memories and judgment had been obscured, but they found themselves unable to leave the island.
• The Elf King and his companions emerged from a Space Door, and Orsaga’s power weakened the Demons to less than one-fiftieth of their strength.
• The elves defeated more than half the Demons while the survivors struggled against their suppression.
• A mage-type Demon recognized Orsaga, forced open a path to him, and offered his true name in exchange for a chance to surrender.
• Orsaga refused the Demon’s offer and killed him, prompting the remaining Demons to fight desperately.

Orsaga helped the Elsera Elf Kingdom earn the plane consciousness’s recognition, allowing its elves to live as natives of the plane. He then urged the Elf King to eliminate the surviving local inhabitants, leaving the king conflicted over the choice.

• Orsaga ate a piece of Abyss Demon flesh, but spat it out after Allison warned him it was poisonous to an elf body.
• Orsaga defeated the last Middle Demons and collected their souls along with billions of souls gathered from the planet’s slaughtered inhabitants.

• Orsaga explained that the elves now needed to clear out the remaining native sentient beings and adapt the planet’s environment for their race.
• Orsaga showed the hesitant Elf King a map of surviving inhabitants and reminded him that the elves’ arrival had caused the disaster.

Allison accepted Orsaga’s plan to eliminate the Ailou Race remnants, believing their future growth would threaten the elves. She destroyed their hidden base and killed the survivors, including children, then wept as she justified her choice as necessary to protect her race.

• Allison took the map from Orsaga, gained the plane’s recognition, and recovered her full strength.
• Orsaga reassured Golanel that the mission could change Allison’s outlook, while Golanel worried about what it would demand of her.
• Allison used her enchanted bow to destroy an underground Ailou Race base and kill everyone inside.

• Allison shot the adults and the children hiding nearby, then cried as she said their deaths were necessary to keep her race safe.

After the Ailou Race survivors were evacuated, Orsaga and the elves cleaned up Fae Star and began transforming it into a home for the Elsera Elf Kingdom. Orsaga completed a planetary barrier that concealed and protected the planet, leaving its inhabitants admiring a newly changed starfield wallpaper.

• Allison admitted she was still troubled by the slaughter, but Orsaga urged her to stop dwelling on the dead, and she eventually agreed.
• Orsaga told Allison that Keliya and Kaila were examining the Ailou Race’s archives and that he did not want to lie to them or the others about his past.
• The elves cleared the corpses, registered their citizens in the Ainter Plane, and began restoring Fae Star’s forests and reshaping its land for future projects.
• Orsaga, with Golanel, Allison, Keliya, and Kaila watching, activated 38,000 Magic Circles and over twelve billion Magic Runes to create Fae Star’s planetary barrier.
• The barrier concealed Fae Star from outside observation, while Orsaga’s altered dynamic wallpaper made the people on the planet think the stars looked more dazzling.

Golanel asked Orsaga to investigate ominous astrological predictions, and he revealed that the stars were only an animated wallpaper he could switch off. Orsaga continued developing his disease-spreading plan as a source of income and a safety net.

• Golanel told Orsaga that several powerful diviners had predicted something bad was about to be born and asked him to investigate.
• Orsaga rearranged the stars overhead, then explained that he had simply turned off the animated wallpaper.
• Golanel asked what Orsaga had been working on, and he said he was securing welfare benefits in case someone defeated him.
• Orsaga reviewed how his diseases infected populations across multiple planes, quietly harvested Life Force and soul power, and could relapse after being cured.
• Orsaga had begun earning around eight million Evolution Points each day from his growing disease network.

Orsaga weathered more jealousy and arguments among Golanel, Keliya, Kaila, and Allison before returning to the Molten Wasteland. He prepared a Magic Ritual to search the Plane Sea for an outer plane and began casting his consciousness into it.

• Keliya joined Golanel and Orsaga, asked how Golanel and Keliya had met Orsaga, and angrily pinched Orsaga for his unfaithfulness.
• Orsaga told Keliya to change Tar Star's laws to suit him, and Keliya left while Kaila and Allison watched from the doorway.
• Two months later, Orsaga returned to the Molten Wasteland after leaving safeguards with Allison, Golanel, Keliya, and Kaila.
• Orsaga prepared a Magic Ritual that used the Abyssal Contract to search for planes without a summoner, then decorated the room with bloody corpses for atmosphere.
• Orsaga activated the Magic Ritual and cast his consciousness into the Plane Sea.

Orsaga searched the Plane Sea for a suitable plane, finally forced his way into one and discovered he had arrived on Earth. After using his remaining power to make himself a human body and a black suit, he turned his attention to a man in an alley.

• Orsaga passed over countless planes and lifeforms before choosing one at random after a hostile plane tried to open a gate and attack him.
• Orsaga found a weak point in the chosen plane's barrier, blasted through it and sent a portion of his consciousness and power inside.

• Orsaga assessed his human body's weak stats and spent his remaining energy forming a fitted black suit.
• Orsaga spotted a man using ketamine in an alley and looked toward him benevolently.

Orsaga tested his ordinary body, robbed a wealthy addict, and used the man's phone to rapidly learn languages and research the world. He discovered he was on a near-future Earth in 2047, but his weakened body and the phone's dying battery left him without a way to obtain a legal identity.

• Orsaga silently descended from a rooftop and knocked out a middle-aged addict in an alley, choosing to rob him rather than kill him.
• Orsaga took the man's cash, discarded his identification and bank card, and unlocked his phone with the man's fingerprint.
• Orsaga quickly learned English and several other languages, then researched the world's history and found that it differed from his previous life.
• Orsaga abandoned his plan to hack an official database for a legal identity when the phone's battery ran low.
• Orsaga rested after feeling fatigue and a headache, then left the alley, reflecting that it was 2047 on a near-future Earth.

Orsaga explored a technologically advanced London, ate at McDonald’s, and met Philala Obero, who invited him to dinner. After he admitted he was short on money, Philala offered to show him an easy way to earn some.

• Orsaga learned about the city’s customs, transport, prices, and technology while walking through London.
