Chapter Summaries

Moriarty and Ithiel developed the Spacetime Gate, using it to send a nuclear explosion into the universe. The experiment led Moriarty to suspect Larpo had deep knowledge of Alchemy, possibly aided by a master stronger than him.

• Moriarty told Ithiel about his encounter with Dracula and his experiences in Avalon, and she proposed that Alchemy Space could travel through time and space.
• Moriarty and Ithiel opened portals to places from Moriarty’s past and used their findings to develop the Alchemy Matrix Spacetime Gate.
• With Ithiel’s help, Moriarty opened a portal into the universe, where they confirmed they could reach space above Earth.
• Moriarty sent the half-completed nuclear explosion into an empty region of space, then returned with Ithiel to Alchemy Space.
• Moriarty connected the Spacetime Gate to Larpo’s Gluttonous Serpent and concluded that Larpo, or someone behind him, might be an Alchemy master.

Moriarty and Ithiel survived Larpo’s Nuclear Bomb, killed Larpo with a coordinated Spacetime Gate attack, and cornered Gamp, who used a Time-Turner to unleash the power of light. Violet and Diana arrived with their forces and Basilisk corpses, completing Moriarty’s strongest wizard squad as the confrontation with Gamp continued.

• Moriarty and Ithiel emerged from a spatial portal unharmed after withstanding half the Nuclear Bomb’s blast, while the Alchemy Space absorbed the rest.
• The Goblin King urged Gamp to abandon the operation, but Larpo tried to summon another Nuclear Bomb and Moriarty and Ithiel killed him instantly through the Alchemy Spacetime Gate.
• Moriarty and Ithiel attacked Gamp with spells of wind, water, fire, and thunder, but Gamp crushed a Time-Turner and the light around him made their attacks vanish.
• Violet and the Blood Clan warriors arrived from the north carrying Basilisk corpses, while Diana and the Elves arrived from the south with more Basilisk corpses.
• Moriarty felt relieved as Violet and Diana joined the battle, completing the strongest wizard squad he had assembled.

Violet and Diana joined Moriarty’s counterattack as he and seven powerful allies surrounded Gamp, who revealed Light, a mysterious member of the Immortality Organization. Moriarty used a Spacetime Gate to turn Gamp’s Disintegration Curse against Light and free Ithiel’s trapped arm, but Gamp remained confident with Light beside him.

• Violet and Diana rendezvoused with Moriarty and warned that Larpo might still have Basilisks capable of resurrecting him.

• Light patted Gamp’s shoulder, calming him as he stared at Moriarty with renewed confidence.

After the battle, Moriarty carried the unconscious Ithiel back to Slytherin Castle to treat her mysteriously deteriorating right arm. He realized the damage began when her arm passed through Light and was progressing like rapid aging, but he still did not know how to stop it.

• Moriarty found Ithiel unconscious with her right arm shriveled and withering, then left Lockhart in charge of the battlefield and returned to Slytherin Castle with her.

• Moriarty realized Gamp had destroyed the Time-Turners to hide their connection to the light and rushed to find Ithiel’s right arm reduced to bare bone.
