Velin helped Locke Abner gain a chance to meet Princess Sabrina while uncovering a cult and guiding the Church of Dawn, then entered a strange consciousness that transformed his power. After helping Sabrina find resolve and mastering his new strength, Velin left Nanmirton with Kyle and Lester to continue their search, where they encountered a Crystal Dragon.
Velin secured the Snow Goose Tribe and a floating battleship, survived a demonic assault, and helped Whispering Valley before returning to Qixing Territory. Back home, he reunited with Xuemiyya and later traveled to Jiangtaen County, where he set a mistreated boy on a path toward Zelia and the army.
Velin explored O'dor's new gray-creature products, reorganized his forces, and visited Tadius's city before entering the Realm Above the Clouds. There, the group gained new knowledge and treasures, then returned to discover a vast Metal City containing a mysterious blue phantom.
Velin dealt with Metal City and its dangerous secrets, reunited with his family, and completed a trial in the manifestation of truth. He expanded Qixing Territory’s potion production and forged new arrangements with Clever, the Gute family, and the Mage Academy.
Velin secured Barnsterpol Crystals, prepared Qixing Territory for his departure, and joined the campaign against the Black Asia Orcs. As Ninth Legion Marshal, he took command of his forces and Kyle began reorganizing the Twenty-fifth Legion.
Velin built up the Ninth Legion’s aerial and ground forces, secured allies and supplies, and ordered an offensive to reclaim occupied territory. As Kyle’s forces uncovered spies and seized Melsa Fortress, the Black Asia Orcs began retreating and moving their people to safety.
Velin managed the awakening of Kahe, separated him and Lah into their own bodies, and secured Mafarna’s cooperation. As Ignis’s forces broke the Black Asia Orc advance, Velin tested the captured general Titus in an illusion and recruited him after he escaped it.
Velin prepared the Ninth Legion’s offensive against the Black Asia Orcs while uncovering a hidden Gray Orc force and receiving two elite legions as reinforcements. The forces converged on Tase City, where Kyle watched a barrier rise as the Twenty-fifth Legion prepared to draw out a Gray Orc legion.
Kyle and Velin helped turn the northern war front defensive before joining the King of Wind Fairies’ trials with their companions. Kyle placed well in the first two rounds and entered the final trial’s memory, where he began trying to prevent Shana’s death.
Kyle left Roland’s Memory Crystal with Shana and won the trial’s top reward, while Velin prepared for war against the Black Asia Orc Northern Army. The armies joined forces against Datus’s undead, and the Blood Knight defeated him and claimed his soul in exchange for a costly payment.
Velin recovered from the battle, tended to his demiplanes, and joined Seraphina’s team for negotiations with the Black Asia Orcs. After the Hayena Armistice Agreement took effect, he arranged compensation and new forces for the Ninth Legion before it withdrew toward Lycaea War City.
Velin completed his final duties as marshal, left the war camp, and reached Yulali City to exchange his Merit Points for treasures. Along the way, he settled disputes, tested Gavin and Donaya in an illusion, and renewed his ties with Yalin Olon and Seraphina.
Velin visited the Holy Third Dawn Kingdom, witnessed Leonas’s plans for a second Dawn Knight Trial, and took Lance and Rayne as students. He then returned to the Ilia Kingdom, where he reunited with Krell and discovered that Krell had been hiding Italia.
After Italia awakens, Velin visits his family and oversees Kavell’s courage trial before a Famine Cult plot against Xuemiyya sparks a sweeping purge across West River Province. As Velin approaches the Violetta Territory, its lord learns that his family’s secret ties to the cult have been exposed.
Velin purged the Famine Cult from Violetta territory, received Kraismel’s blessing, and tested Valient through an illusion of a lifetime as king. He returned to Qixing Territory to find it prosperous and growing, then began planning its future while pursuing O'dor and summoning Greg.
Velin returned to Qixing Territory, reviewed Zexia and Zephirin’s progress, and followed Zephirin into Silfros Space. After defeating and learning the past of Astariah, he accepted her as a subordinate and placed her and Zephirin under Xuemiyya’s command.
Velin reorganized Qixing Territory’s government and forces, received the Church of Life’s reward, and learned that the Boundless Sea was an ancient battlefield. Krell and Italia returned with Meltis and Viderknes, leaving Velin with new potential allies and O'dor’s coming shipbuilding project.
Velin expanded Qixing Territory through training, diplomacy, and the defeat of a Dark Elf incursion, while Kyle and Meltis traveled toward Gaelos Cloud City and drew the attention of the Ilondewin royal family. The arc ended with the kingdom learning that Kyle was recruiting Soul Intent followers and might soon leave.
Kyle returned from Galos Cloud City with new followers, an angel army, and Floating Battleships, then led the assault on the Gadas Underground World. After the angels destroyed the Iris Tribe’s forces, Kyle killed Safrais’s original soul and faced a familiar figure who appeared in answer to her.
Velin uncovered the secrets of an otherworldly passage, prepared for a future continental conquest, and encountered his sister Clara after years apart. He welcomed her and her companions into Qixing Territory, where they began a banquet in Cecilia’s Demiplane.
