Chapter Summaries

Kuroka recounted how Bai Yue saved Bathsheba’s infant son, identified as King Solomon, during their trip three thousand years into the past. Her story alarmed the Supernatural Research Club, and Shirone’s slip about Bai Yue left Kuroka suspecting he had a connection to Solomon’s survival.

• Bai Yue and Kuroka arrived in ancient Jerusalem after an artillery strike killed a maid and Bathsheba’s infant son.
• Bai Yue restored the child by giving him a fragment of blank soul, while Kuroka feared that changing history would erase her.

• At the Supernatural Research Club, Kuroka explained that Asachel had staged Vali’s betrayal to help him infiltrate Khaos Brigade.
• Kuroka told Rias and Sona that the child was King Solomon, and Shirone blurted out that Bai Yue was alive before Kuroka could question her.

Ravel proposed that the King Solomon in this world was the same person as the King Solomon from the parallel world, resurrected through this world’s King Solomon’s body. Rias, Sona, Akeno, and the others began to see evidence for her theory in his knowledge and their Demon God powers.

• Ravel questioned why Haziyiluus had reacted so strongly to King Solomon, then learned from Xenovia that the otherworld King Solomon had died after defeating Satan and Beelzebub.
• Xenovia warned that Evis Etourute might use Lumayidora’s time-transcending artillery to alter this world’s history and erase the counterparts of the humans who fought in the other world.
• After Xenovia left, Ravel told Rias and the others that she suspected both King Solomons were the same person, revived in this world using its King Solomon’s corpse.
• Ravel argued that the Moon King had recognized Solomon’s Time Temple and asked how he could be the Demon God King if he had died alongside Satan.
• Rias and Sona recalled that Solomon knew about the otherworld God of the Bible’s betrayal, while the Demon God Pillars’ powers seemed tied to gods absent from their world.

Shirone and Kuroka became Pillar Demon Gods under Bai Yue, gaining new power and rising in strength. Their bond with him transported them and the others to an arena where they watched a different world’s Ragnarok battle between Thor and humanity’s champion.

• Shirone released her new Flauros power without losing control and discovered she had gained a third tail.
• Kuroka chose the Botis card and fused with it using her own strength, reaching Sovereign-class and gaining five tails.
• Kuroka’s transformation resonated with Bai Yue, and the group was transported from the Supernatural Research Club to a vast arena filled with humans from different eras.
• The group realized they were watching a replay of Ragnarok’s first match, in which Thor had been defeated, and saw how rapidly the battle had been slowed for human spectators.
• Sona and Tsubaki noticed the fighters’ speed was far beyond what the displayed movements suggested, while Kuroka learned that this world’s Thor used his gauntlets to suppress his power.

Rias, Sona, Kuroka, and their companions realized they had been transported to the Ragnarok arena and watched the second battle begin between King Solomon and Beelzebub. Beelzebub’s summoned monsters turned out to be feeding the Demon King Mara, which suddenly shifted the battle in his favor.

• Ravel and the others watched the first match’s final strike in increasingly slowed footage and learned the second match would be a clash between Super Sovereigns.

• Beelzebub’s monster army nurtured the Demon King Mara, whose appearance suddenly turned the battle against Solomon and his allies.

King Solomon’s Goetia overwhelmed Satan, but Satan unleashed Void God - Chaos, which King Solomon restrained with pillars made of countless dead humans. The girls realized the dead souls had crawled out of Hell to take revenge on the Lord of Heaven for the divine disasters he had imposed on humanity.

• King Solomon overlaid four Demon Pillars from different points in time, letting them kill four Boshuns, but the remaining Boshuns grew stronger by devouring their companions and Beelzebub’s insects.
• Beelzebub’s heart devoured Boshun and transformed him into Satan, while King Solomon overlaid all seventy-two demons to become Goetia.
• Satan nearly fell to two of Goetia’s attacks before unleashing a black sphere called Void God - Chaos that threatened the stadium.
• King Solomon restrained Void God - Chaos with enormous tentacle-like pillars, and Kuroka, Shirone, Koneko, and Aisha were overwhelmed by the sight of them.
• Akeno saw visions of humans dying in divine disasters imposed as trials and realized the pillars were formed from dead souls seeking vengeance on the Lord of Heaven.

After King Solomon vanished, the spectators learned that he had saved billions of human souls and exposed the gods’ history of exploiting humanity. As the sixth round began, Rias and the others debated whether Ashiya Douman’s actions were part of a wider plan to draw the Primal God faction into the open.

• Billions of human souls took revenge on Satan, thanked King Solomon, and vanished as Solomon disappeared from the universe.
• The spectators learned that the gods had used human trials to produce demigods, and that the Lord of Heaven had destroyed seventy-two mythologies and turned their gods into the Seventy-Two Pillars of Demons.
• The memories revealed King Solomon’s Magic Kingdom and his role in aiding humanity and bringing order to the demon world; Rias and Sona called him humanity’s god.
• Humanity and the gods fell silent after the memories ended, and both sides treated the coming battle as a fight for their dignity rather than simply humanity’s survival.
• Rias, Sona, Akeno, Tsubaki Shinra, Kuroka, and Ravel discussed Ashiya Douman’s release of dangerous monsters and wondered whether he meant to help the Primal God faction return or lure it into a trap.
• Sona suggested King Solomon might have faked his death, traveled to their world, and joined them in a pincer attack; Ravel agreed that his visit might also have been a test.

• Ravel explained that their world needed support from this one, and the girls worried they might not be able to return home.
• The girls decided to seek Brunhilde at the Valkyries’ stands once the sixth match began.
• Zeus entered the arena, transforming from a frail old man into a massively muscular fighter.
• Heimdallr announced that the King of Knights would represent humanity against Zeus.
• The King of Knights approached, and Rias and the others saw a strange, familiar sight before his identity was fully shown.

• Akeno told Suzaku that joining Bai Yue’s followers had raised her to a top-tier High-ranking Demon and could soon bring her to Demon King level, prompting Suzaku to consider joining.
