An Xiu and Raiden Makoto persuaded Kujou Sara to temporarily join the Resistance Army after showing her evidence of the Shogunate’s corruption. The Resistance Army attacked Narukami Island with three Giant Wendigos, drawing the Raiden Shogun into battle as the chapter ended with the monsters pressing their assault.

• An Xiu and Raiden Makoto visited Kujou Sara in prison and revealed that Raiden Makoto was Ei’s elder sister and Inazuma’s First Raiden.

• The Raiden Shogun left Tenshukaku and attacked a Giant Wendigo, but the three monsters countered together and forced her to retreat as they swung their claws at her.

Raiden Ei reunited with Raiden Makoto and her friends, but the Raiden Shogun identified them as threats to Eternity and attacked. After Sangonomiya Kokomi defeated the Shogun, An Xiu took Raiden Makoto and Ei to meet Mobius, leaving Kokomi, Kitsune Saiguu, and Yae Miko to govern Inazuma.

An Xiu brought Vill-V to help Mobius study the Raiden Shogun puppet, then returned with Sakuya to the Holy Terra Empire, where Talulah reported an enormous grain harvest. He proposed sending part of the surplus to Sicily, which was short on food.

• Sangonomiya Kokomi outlined the plans to eliminate parasites and rebuild Inazuma’s government, while the Sakoku Decree and Vision Hunt Decree would be abolished after the new system was established.
• Mobius examined Raiden Makoto and Raiden Ei and asked An Xiu to bring in another scientist to help modify the Raiden Shogun puppet.
• An Xiu materialized Vill-V, confirmed that all her personalities would obey him, and brought her to Mobius’s laboratory to work on the puppet.
• An Xiu instructed Vill-V to improve the Raiden Shogun without adding anything strange, then left the One-Punch Man world with Sakuya for the Arknights World.
• Talulah told An Xiu that the Empire’s first harvest from Mobius’s high-yield seeds exceeded the combined annual grain output of Ursus, Kazimierz, and Victoria by fifty percent.
• An Xiu proposed setting aside some of the surplus grain to aid Sicily, which had recently established diplomatic relations with the Holy Terra Empire.

Talulah and the Doctor arranged diplomatic ties with Kazdel and hired Sarkaz workers, while An Xiu brought Shu into the Empire’s service by offering a way to protect her from Sui’s awakening. Sakura used Grace to anchor Shu’s existence to An Xiu, then gave him an Erase Card to help eliminate the danger of Sui; the chapter ended with that threat still unresolved.

• Talulah approved sending Sicily grain aid and began arranging diplomatic relations with Kazdel and Sarkaz employment after An Xiu endorsed the plan.

After Talulah learned that former Victorian nobles were gathering near the Leithanien border, she sought an investigation before their suspected plot could unfold.

• An Xiu bought Holy Lance Rhongomyniad, Nightmare Bloodline, and a Surprise Blind Box, which gave him a stack of Redstone with infinite replenishment that he planned to have Vill-V research.
• Theresis learned that Manfred had signed a diplomatic agreement with the Holy Terra Empire, accepted that it had no issues, and arranged for Niecilei to accompany Kazdel's Sarkaz delegation.
• Niecilei led nearly one hundred thousand Sarkaz laborers into the Empire, where registration delays held them up before they were assigned construction work.
• The Sarkaz laborers began building a trade route and eagerly worked in exchange for meals, lodging, and wages better than they had received in Kazdel.
• Talulah received a report that former Victorian nobles were gathering near the Leithanien border, and An Xiu reasoned that they were plotting rather than fleeing.
• Talulah asked Lapland to send Shadow Moon Canglang to investigate the nobles' activities.

An Xiu sent three newly introduced Giant Wendigo to crush a group of former Victorian nobles who had secretly infiltrated an Imperial border city. The nobles and their Leithanien backers were exposed, and the chapter ended as one Giant Wendigo erased their manor with a lightning spear.

• An Xiu ordered a Shadow Moon Canglang squad to investigate the border, and it reported that the noble remnants had made a remote Imperial city their hideout.
• An Xiu rejected Talulah’s suggestion to send an ordinary army and chose to introduce the Empire’s new Giant Wendigo force.

• The nobles learned that three Wendigo had come, then discovered they were mountain-sized Giant Wendigo that surrounded the city and towered above its walls.
• The city’s soldiers evacuated civilians as a Giant Wendigo damaged the wall and hurled a lightning spear at the manor, annihilating the nobles and the surrounding area.

After discovering Empress's Voice spies in the border city, An Xiu and Talulah sent three Giant Wendigos into Leithanien, where they routed its army and devastated several cities. The Twin Emperesses received the Empire’s demand for compensation, while other nations and Theresis learned of the Giant Wendigos and grew wary of the Empire’s power.

• The Shadow Troopers captured the Empress's Voice spies, and the three Giant Wendigos marched toward Leithanien after their presence revealed the Twin Emperesses’ involvement.

• An Xiu and Talulah planned to summon the Twin Emperesses to negotiate a treaty, while the Twin Emperesses received the Empire’s demand that Leithanien pay compensation.
• Spies from Yan Kingdom, Columbia, and other nations reported the Giant Wendigos’ destruction, and Theresis showed Dukare the intelligence report.

Leithanien accepted the Holy Terra Empire’s reparations and treaties, while the empire secretly learned of its plan to pursue trade with Sicily and Great Yan. An Xiu then asked Vill-V to devise mass-produced combat equipment for the empire, and she began building power-armor production lines while her Redstone research continued.

• The Black Empress finalized Leithanien’s reparations and agreements with the Holy Terra Empire, then returned home as the White Empress prepared a trade partnership with Sicily and Great Yan.
• An Xiu and Talulah learned of Leithanien’s proposed partnership through the Shadow Moon Canglang Legion and chose not to interfere.
• An Xiu visited Mobius’s research base, where Mobius and Vill-V explained that they had repaired Raiden Shogun and rewritten her logic so she regarded An Xiu as the embodiment of Eternity.
• An Xiu described the empire’s shortage of mid-level defenders, and Vill-V proposed mass-producing power armor based on Terra’s Steam Knights.
• Vill-V designed Imitative Steam Knight armor for ordinary soldiers, Astartes armor for the Wendigo Legion, and lighter Mark II armor for the Shadow Moon Canglang Legion, then arranged production lines.
• An Xiu asked about Redstone research, and Vill-V reported that it retained its ability to release energy indefinitely despite losing many of its game-world properties.

An Xiu and Talulah established new armored security forces for the Holy Terra Empire, whose members later intervened when Vigna and the Glasgow Gang were attacked. Gawain tried to protect Vigna from the arriving Steam Knights but was beaten by the Empire’s power-armored officers.

• Vill-V and Mobius discussed using Redstone as a stable energy source, and An Xiu promised to send Mobius Reapers of Death to study.
• Talulah recruited over a thousand loyal citizens and assigned them to new security forces equipped with power armor.

• Gawain fought the officers but was overwhelmed and beaten by their Imitative Steam Knight Power Armor.

• Vigna revealed her royal identity while protecting Gawain, and New Empire Security Forces took them to Talulah for judgment.
• Talulah freed Vigna after explaining that her capture had been an accident, then invited her to serve the empire; Vigna accepted.
• An Xiu used his points to manifest Lancer Artoria and Meli as new avatars.
• An Xiu told Artoria and Meli he would send them to the Konosuba World with identities as a Belzerg royal and a court mage so they could develop the world before he joined them.

An Xiu met with SilverAsh in Londinium and approved his proposal for trade cooperation between Kjerag and the Holy Terra Empire. He then waited with Kal'tsit for Amiya, Nearl, and Shining to arrive and discuss Rhodes Island’s worsening predicament.

• An Xiu sent Artoria and Meli to KonoSuba World with identities he had arranged for them.
• SilverAsh arrived in Londinium seeking trade cooperation, but found An Xiu and Kal'tsit in place of the imperial official he had arranged to meet.
• An Xiu explained that the official had been executed for corruption and invited SilverAsh to discuss his proposal instead.
• SilverAsh outlined plans to expand trade with Kjerag, and An Xiu approved further negotiations at the palace.
• An Xiu explained that Rhodes Island was struggling without the Doctor and with Kal'tsit away, and that Amiya had come to seek her help.
• Amiya arrived at the restaurant with Nearl and Shining and greeted An Xiu and Kal'tsit.

An Xiu helped Rhodes Island join the empire and provided it with a formula for an Oripathy cure, which succeeded in trials on Sarkaz laborers. After discussing production and aid, the Doctor proposed publicly announcing the cure so the empire could profit from its advantage.

• An Xiu offered to fund Rhodes Island and let it produce part of the empire’s Oripathy cure, and Amiya agreed to join the empire.
• Mobius created a simplified cure formula, and An Xiu arranged an escort for Amiya and Rhodes Island as they traveled to the imperial capital.
• Rhodes Island began producing the medicine, and An Xiu brought a batch to a Sarkaz worksite for testing.
• About a hundred Sarkaz laborers took the medicine and recovered from Oripathy, prompting Nie Cilei to thank the empire on Kazdel’s behalf.
• Amiya estimated that Rhodes Island could eventually produce 150,000 doses monthly, and An Xiu discussed the cure’s production and distribution with her.
• The Doctor recommended publicly announcing the cure, and Talulah questioned the value of doing so before the Doctor said the empire could gain considerable benefits.

An Xiu and Doctor arranged to profit from the Empire’s cure for Oripathy by limiting its apparent supply and selling costly medical memberships, prompting envoys and nobles to rush to the Empire. An Xiu then traveled to Axel in the KonoSuba world, where Chris mistook him for a new reincarnator and offered to help him register as an Adventurer.

• An Xiu and Doctor planned to trade a small number of Oripathy cures to other nations and establish Rhodes Island Trauma Team, which would charge two million Imperial Coins per year for Platinum membership.
• The Empire announced its cure and negotiated with foreign envoys, while Rhodes Island Trauma Team’s membership offer drew nobles toward the capital.
• An Xiu opened a portal to Axel to check on Artoria and Meli, then headed for the Adventurers' Guild.
• Chris followed An Xiu, mistaking his perception ability for a reincarnator’s power and assuming he needed help paying the Adventurers' Guild fee.
• Chris explained that she had followed him to offer help, and An Xiu said he believed her because he could sense she was a good person.

An Xiu learned that Artoria and Meli had made Belzerg prosperous, then discovered that Meli had publicly named him the prophesied Braver. He traveled from Axel to the royal capital with Chris and Darkness and arrived at the palace to meet Artoria and Meli.

• Chris explained that Artoria had become Belzerg’s sole heir and had crushed the Demon King’s forces, while Meli helped govern the kingdom.
• An Xiu tried to register as an adventurer, but the guild staff recognized his name as the prophesied Braver and alerted the kingdom’s agents.
• Chris told An Xiu that Meli’s prophecy described a hero who would defeat the Demon King and bring peace, and kingdom personnel invited them to the royal capital.
• Chris and An Xiu were joined by Darkness, and the three traveled under escort to the royal capital.
• An Xiu, Chris, and Darkness arrived at the palace and were guided inside to meet Artoria.

After three days of enjoying palace life, An Xiu left the royal capital for Axel to form an Adventurer party and begin pursuing the Demon King’s army. He recruited Chris, while Artoria and Meli supported his plans, and Darkness remained behind as an unwilling hanger-on.

• Artoria pledged loyalty to An Xiu as a knight, and Meli declared that she would follow him as well.
• An Xiu spent three days enjoying the palace before deciding to return to Axel and form an Adventurer party.
• Darkness questioned whether An Xiu was truly the prophesied Braver, while Chris defended him and urged him toward the Demon King’s army.
• At the Axel Adventurer’s Guild, An Xiu invited Chris to join his party and declined Meli’s suggestion to recruit Princess Alice.
• An Xiu said he would not formally invite Darkness, and Darkness protested that she would only submit because of Artoria.
• An Xiu told Artoria to put up a notice recruiting party members, and she agreed.

An Xiu formed his adventurer party by accepting Yunyun and Megumin after a day of recruiting applicants in Axel. As the party discussed its first mission, Meli revealed that a high-ranking demon was wandering nearby, and An Xiu proposed using the encounter to gain more benefits.

• Artoria posted An Xiu's notice recruiting only female adventurers, and An Xiu and Meli rejected applicants throughout the morning.
• Yunyun introduced herself as an archmage of the Crimson Demon Clan, and Meli accepted her on the condition that she obey An Xiu's orders.
• Megumin offered to join the party with her Explosion Magic, and An Xiu and Meli questioned her limited abilities before accepting her anyway.
• An Xiu's party celebrated its formation and discussed possible missions, but the members rejected Chris's suggestions to fight the Demon King's forces or take beginner commissions immediately.
• Meli told the party that a high-ranking demon was wandering outside Axel, and An Xiu said they should consider how to use it to gain benefits.
