After leaving the ninja world, Lilith crossed the space between worlds in search of a suitable destination, but her magic power was rapidly depleted by the journey and a dangerous region. She entered a nearby world to recover before continuing her search.

• Before leaving, Lilith used Itachi Uchiha's eyes and Fugaku Uchiha's eyes to create an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which the Blood Emperor devoured before Lilith destroyed the puppet.
• Lilith broke through the world's barrier using her own power and traveled beyond it, protected by blood-red armor and a larger armor formed from Susanoo and Rc cells.
• Lilith found that magic power was being consumed faster than it could recover, and she considered entering a weaker world to devour its World Origin but hesitated because it would destroy that world.
• Cracks suddenly spread across Lilith's larger armor, sharply increasing her magic-power consumption until she flew out of the affected region.
• Lilith entered a relatively large nearby world to rest and recover before resuming her search.

Lilith arrived in the 2039 quarantine zone and investigated the Apocalypse Virus, whose crystals could preserve memories and souls and whose infected developed dangerous Voids. She collected blood samples and obtained virus specimens from a GHQ laboratory, leaving with material to study.

• Lilith recalled the Apocalypse Virus's effects, its connection to Mana Ouma and Shu Ouma, and GHQ's development of Ultimate Roar Gautier.

• Lilith collected blood from people and animals in the quarantine zone to study how the virus existed in their bodies.
• Lilith learned the location of a GHQ laboratory from passersby and obtained additional Apocalypse Virus samples there.

Lilith discovered that the Apocalypse Virus conducted mental energy well and decided to seek more so she could modify the Blood Emperor. She brought Yuzuriha Inori to Shadow City and entered her mental space, where she found Mana Ouma; after meeting her, Lilith reconsidered having the Blood Emperor devour Mana Ouma's soul.

• Lilith broke the crystal tower where Mana Ouma slept, waking her.
• Lilith realized Mana Ouma's soul had fused with the Apocalypse Virus and became reluctant to let the Blood Emperor devour her.

Lilith studied the Apocalypse Virus and kept Mana Ouma's soul while GHQ's stolen Void Genome and Primal Stone set off a struggle over Mana Ouma and Shu Ouma. Yogami Aya used Shu Ouma's power for Funeral Parlor, but grew suspicious when Mana Ouma showed no signs of awakening through Yuzuriha Inori.

• Lilith sent Yuzuriha Inori back, took GHQ's Primal Stone, and began researching the Apocalypse Virus in Shadow City.
• After the Void Genome was stolen and Shu Ouma gained the Power of the King, Kyodo Shuichiro secured two remaining genome tubes and planned to use the Primal Stone to make himself Adam.
• When Kyodo Shuichiro learned the Primal Stone had vanished, he tried to capture Shu Ouma to threaten Mana Ouma, but Yogami Aya placed Shu Ouma under protection.
• Yogami Aya moved Shu Ouma to Funeral Parlor's base and used his power on operations, while exploiting his indecision to keep him with the organization.
• Yogami Aya noticed that Mana Ouma had shown no signs of awakening despite Shu Ouma, as Adam, coming into contact with Yuzuriha Inori.

Lilith left the world where she had investigated Mana Ouma and received a summons from a powerful being beyond the worlds. She met Zeus, who revealed that she was a Divine Child and told her that her divinity would eventually manifest.

• Lilith received a mysterious invitation and followed it to the barrier of an immense world.
• Lilith entered the world after hearing a voice call her in and encountered a deity on a divine throne.
• Zeus told Lilith that she was a Divine Child whose divinity would manifest, and Lilith was shocked to learn his name.

Lilith received a task from Zeus to look after Bell Cranel and traveled to Orario, where she settled in and began searching for him. She left the chapter monitoring the Dungeon entrance with small robots, though animals kept destroying them.

• Lilith bought a house near the central spire and hired two Cat-eared girls from the Adventurer's Guild to cook for her.
• Lilith built bird-shaped robots to search for Bell near the Dungeon entrance, but birds and curious cats kept destroying them, so she made more and placed them elsewhere.

• Eina gave the box to Bell, who brought it home to Hestia.

Hestia suspected Little Black might be dangerous and brought Bell and the Mechanical Dog to Hephaestus for an inspection. Hephaestus proposed taking Little Black apart, and Little Black asked her why.

• Hestia criticized the craftsmanship of the Mechanical Dog, which argued back and asked Bell to name it.

• Bell told Little Black it did not have to follow a mission, but Little Black insisted that protecting him was its purpose.
• Hestia brought Bell and Little Black to visit Hephaestus, who offered to take the dog apart to inspect it.
• Hephaestus explained that Hestia was worried Little Black might endanger Bell, and Little Black asked why she wanted to take it apart.

Lilith refined the drop of divinity Zeus gave her and learned it was Blood Divinity from a god Zeus had killed, which helped repair her bodily flaws. She also discovered that her own divinity was Life Divinity, leaving her puzzled as she continued refining it.

• Lilith recalled her Mechanical Birds after confirming that Bell had received the Mechanical Dog, then began refining Zeus's divinity.
• Lilith realized that devouring powerful beings had burdened her body instead of repairing its flaws, and that recovery through slumber might take far longer than she had expected.

• The gods in Orario sensed Zeus's Divine Power and wondered who had spoken ill of him, while Lilith went into seclusion to refine the divinity.
• Lilith learned that Zeus had killed a god who slaughtered a world for Blood Divine Power, then extracted and refined the god's divinity because it suited her.
• Lilith sensed the divinity within herself and discovered it was Life Divinity, not the blood or death divinity she had expected.

Lilith decided to protect Bell as Zeus had asked and began building heavily armed War Fortresses. In the Dungeon, Bell and Little Black sensed a powerful monster approaching the fifth floor, and Little Black stayed behind to draw it away.

• Little Black warned Bell that a Minotaur was approaching and detected a woman chasing it.
• Little Black urged Bell to flee and secretly stayed behind him, ready to shield him from the Minotaur.

• Bell fell in love with Ais and ran off excitedly, while Little Black apologized to Ais and she questioned whether it was really a dog.
