Angel’s group faced Adanis’s Mirror Realm attack and reached the flower-bearing Infant Spirit guarding the way to the Clear Sky Poem Room. Angel recognized the Demon-Eating Flower as Shaye, negotiated its cooperation, and cleared a path while sheltering its incarnation in his Nightmare Domain.

• Wise Sovereign showed Angel Abyss City’s murals and offered him cooperation, while Black Earl agreed to a separate partnership in exchange for information about the Hollow Men and their descendants.
• Adanis attacked the group with Clownfish’s human-faced fish, but Olao intervened and named the flower-holding Infant Spirit as their trial.
• Angel identified the fragrance as coming from Demon-Eating Flowers and led the group to the red wax and woven nets surrounding the Infant Spirit.
• Dox’s sandworms crossed the webbing but were driven mad by the red wax, so Angel soothed them and sent a Mist Serpent through the nets to reveal the Infant Spirit.
• Angel and Black Earl entered the red wax region, where its web dissolved energy and filled Black Earl’s mind with grotesque memories, but Angel’s Domain Field kept them stable.
• Angel recognized the Demon-Eating Flower as Shaye, who explained its connection to the Infant Spirit and agreed to let the group pass if Angel sheltered its incarnation in his Nightmare Domain.
• Angel destroyed the flower on the Infant Spirit’s head and persuaded the frightened creature to loosen its web, then decided to return for Dox and the others because the red wax still blocked their way.

Angel entered the Clear Sky Poem Room and learned why Augustine wanted him to take Olao as a follower, while Adanis chose to seek the Noah Clan and recover her missing part. The group left the room with Olao entrusted to Angel, and Angel borrowed Sweet Dream from the Wise Sovereign.

• Adanis failed to break through Olao’s defenses, and Olao warned that destroying Abyss City would unleash the danger Naraka had buried there.
• Angel unlocked the Clear Sky Poem Room, where Augustine spoke through an alchemical puppet and revealed that Adanis needed Noah descendants to recover the part Margaret had taken from her.
• Augustine gave Angel the bronze mirror that was Olao’s true body, and Angel agreed to take Olao in so he could help him grow toward Adegou’s level.
• Olao agreed to follow Angel, while Adanis chose to go with Black Earl to the Source World and seek help from the Noah Clan.
• Augustine dissolved Olao’s contract, and Adanis later returned Olao’s mirror to Angel and asked him to keep their connection alive during their separation.
• Angel’s group met the Wise Sovereign, who agreed to lend Angel Sweet Dream after hearing a limited account of what had changed in the Clear Sky Poem Room.
• The Wise Sovereign warned Angel that Sweet Dream could cause addiction and eternal sleep, then explained its restorative power and gave Angel the key earring to its mirror-space.

Angel investigated Sweet Dream with Laplace and theorized that it connected the Mirror World to the Dream Realm. He used Laplace’s Shed Scale to create a new Dream Wilderness, where they fought invading Demonic Beasts as Angel tried to keep the unstable domain from collapsing.

• Angel questioned Caroline about the Panic Realm, its history, and the Liberators, and she warned him about Ermi’s possible second awakening.
• Angel entered the Mirror Realm with Gengar, met Laplace in Paradise Lost, and examined Sweet Dream and the murals carved into the giant tree.
• Angel and Laplace pieced together the murals’ reversed sequence while learning that Mirror Realm creatures had gradually stopped dreaming.
• Angel proposed using an object tied to the Mirror World’s will to create a new Dream Wilderness, and Laplace agreed to lend him an inert relic made from her original body’s shed scales.
• Angel used the Dream Conch to send the bottled scales into the Dream Realm and confirmed that the Dream Wilderness’s authorities had resumed working.
• Laplace entered the new domain, activated the Bottled Molt, and joined Angel to fight the Purgers that poured through a crack in the sky.
• Angel supplied Laplace with Shed Scale as she destroyed the invading creatures, then expanded Shadow of the Cage and drove Demonic Beasts into its center.
• Angel asked Laplace to restrain her bombardments and began looking for a way to reinforce the gathering point before Dream Crystal Plain collapsed.

Angel used the Dream Crystal Plain’s emerging authority to resist Memory Forest and began exploring the dangerous dreams and crystal creations it produced. As Laplace and the others confronted the realm’s threats, Angel brought Dangros along and Rabbit Girl vanished after putting on a strange headband.

• Angel and Laplace funneled the Demonic Beasts into the Final Land, where Laplace destroyed them, but a regenerating Spider Monster emerged from the rift and trapped her among its clones.
• Laplace identified the clones as Memory Time Doppelgängers, and Angel brought Memory Forest into the Dream Crystal Plain only after manifesting the Dreamwalking Wonderland authority to limit its takeover.
• Laplace entered a Rose Garden dream, uncovered Helen’s story, and executed Vilaf van Helen, after which Helen’s Dream transformed and linked with Billa’s Sweet Dream to become Feast of the Glutton.
• Angel tried to pull Sweet Dream into the Dream Crystal Plain, but the Heart-Shaped Pillow it yielded became a crystal creation, prompting him to restrict Dreamwalking Wonderland’s ability to claim protected objects.
• Angel brought Laplace, Gleipnir, Luigi, Rabbit Girl, and Dangros into the Dream Crystal Plain as they prepared to face its threats and explore Dream Mountain.
• Rabbit Girl killed a powerful worm-like demon, while Angel learned that Rabbit Girl’s carrot satchel amplified her close-range attacks and arranged for Laplace and Gleipnir to receive replacement equipment.
• Angel reassured Dangros that he would let it keep exploring, then watched Rabbit Girl defeat the Oxhead Octopus before she put on a black rabbit-ear headband and disappeared.
