Anvis returned to the academy, heard about a magical accident involving Gellerka and Bob, and learned that the royal Ninth Prince was enrolling. Later, the Crystal Egg in his laboratory hatched into a pale-azure creature.

• Anvis returned to class after arranging more details for the player organization and reassuring Fiona.
• Skyla told Anvis that Gellerka had been partly turned to stone and Bob had been turned into a frog during a lab accident, and that the royal Ninth Prince was enrolling.
• Seer Silver alerted Anvis that the Crystal Egg was close to hatching, so Anvis returned to his laboratory and increased its magic supply.
• The Crystal Egg cracked and revealed a semi-transparent, winged creature surrounded by energy tentacles and orbiting crystal fragments.

Anvis studied the newly hatched elemental dragon, testing its responses and leaving Seer Silver to care for it. He then attended a banquet hosted by the Seventh Prince, Viller Augustine, where he anticipated a test and soon encountered trouble.

• Anvis scanned the hatchling and learned it was an incorporeal Fifth-Order creature composed mostly of wind elements and an unknown power.
• Anvis tested the dragon with different elemental magic and ores, discovering that it could absorb varied magic safely and favored Green Glow Crystal.
• Anvis left Seer Silver in charge of feeding and observing the dragon, then accepted an invitation to a banquet hosted by the Augustine family.
• Anvis traveled to Badro Manor two days later and mingled with noble youths while watching for possible tests.
• Something soon approached Anvis at the banquet.

Anvis deflected two attempts to provoke him at the Seventh Prince’s banquet, displaying his strength and turning one challenger’s behavior against him. After Prince Veller greeted him and questioned him about his Outlander Organization, Anvis dismissed it as an experiment.

• Anvis froze a guest and his spilled wine, restored both, and warned him not to stumble again.
• A gaudily dressed young man tried to provoke Anvis, who rebuked him for causing trouble at the Seventh Prince’s banquet.

• Anvis called the organization an experiment and said he had wanted to test how difficult it was to establish one.

Prince Veller questioned Anvis about his escape from the destroyed trial world and his views on Magic Constructs. Anvis concealed how he altered the teleportation array, while Veller argued that Magic Constructs threatened the established order but could never challenge Ninth Rank Limit Professionals.

• Veller asked Anvis to recount the attack that destroyed the trial world, and Anvis described his escape with Ailisha to the Iter Free Federation.

• Veller asked Anvis what he thought of the Federation’s Magic Construct development, and Anvis dismissed it compared with the Empire.
• Veller claimed Magic Constructs disrupted the rules of power and said their armies could never threaten a Ninth Rank Limit Professional.

At The Banquet, Anvis agreed with Prince Veller’s conservative views on Magic Constructs, prompting Veller to advise him about choosing influential friends. Back at Pamir Academy, Anvis reflected on Veller’s attempt to recruit him and the princes’ long wait for the throne.

• Anvis privately recalled how powerful high-ranking experts could be, but told Prince Veller that Magic Constructs were only a fragile lifeline for the Kingdom Federation.
• Veller praised Anvis’s view, then advised him to make friends whose status and influence could help him.

• After returning to Pamir Academy, Anvis reviewed the evening and concluded that Veller had been trying to win him over.
• Anvis reflected that the royal princes had already waited over six hundred years as crown princes and needed allies to strengthen their bids for the throne.

After reading reports of rumors blaming the Olyvendi Family for the attack on Carlras City, Anvis recalled how similar rumors had once helped spark unrest across the Empire. He sent the Mysteries Society instructions to counter them with competing rumors, and Players debated the new quests and the faction’s ties to the family.

• Anvis read Leonard’s letter, which reported unrest in Raymond’s territory, an attack at Olivenndi Academy, and rumors in Carlras City blaming the Olyvendi Family for the city attack.
• Anvis recalled that rumors had once spread across the Empire before Resistance Organizations emerged, and decided to fight them by spreading competing rumors through the Mysteries Society’s Players.
• Anvis sent instructions for his plan, and the Mysteries Society’s Mission Hall posted quests to spread rumors that another force had framed the Olyvendi Family and to eliminate those spreading hostile rumors.
• Yingji Changkong and Flying Goldfish discussed the quests, concluded that the Mysteries Society was connected to the Olyvendi Family, and noted that White Light Club had encouraged its members to earn faction contribution.

Ying Ji Chang Kong realized the Mysteries Society's second mission was part of a large-scale faction war, as Anvis's recruitment and missions drew thousands of players into the society. The battle between the Mysteries Society and Door in the Pupil transformed public opinion in Carlras Province, leaving the Four Great Families' critics isolated.

• Ying Ji Chang Kong told Flying Goldfish that the mission's low Challenge Rating suggested the conflict's scale was unusually vast.
• Silver Blue, Stardust, and other clubs let their members join the Mysteries Society, which soon grew to over ten thousand Full Members and Outer Members.
• Anvis stopped suppressing rumors and redirected them toward claims that Earl Elino and small and mid-sized nobles had plotted the monster attacks.
• Mysteries Society players ambushed players spreading Door in the Pupil's rumors, prompting some survivors to switch sides and a few to spread rumors for both factions.
• Anvis had captured rumor spreaders confess on recording, and the broadcasts turned many ordinary Professionals against the small and mid-sized nobles.

Anvis’s rumor campaign spiraled out of control in Carlas Province, drawing Players into a struggle against the Door in the Pupil and derailing its plan to turn public anger against the Empire’s ruling families. At a secret meeting, Star revealed that the mole’s identity had been confirmed and that the traitor was among those present.

• Anvis used Players and low-rank Professionals to spread competing rumors, while the Door in the Pupil’s agents challenged and attacked those defending the rulers.
• Most Players joined the Mysteries Society camp, and Anvis rewarded several guild presidents with senior-member identity nameplates and greater access to the Society’s shop.
• After half a month, rumors had overwhelmed public opinion in Carlas Province, and the Door in the Pupil’s plan to spark resentment through monster attacks had failed.
• Dark Abyss and other black-robed members reported mixed results to the Leader at a meeting in the ruined Obsidian Palace beneath the Lolan Kingdom.
• Gray Mist reported that Zero’s plan had stirred fewer people than expected and had little effect on the Empire’s upper ranks.
• Star told the Leader that the mole’s identity had been confirmed and that the mole was sitting among them, prompting suspicion to fall especially on Zero.

Zero and Lord Dark Abyss exposed Blazing Wing as the mole while the organization prepared for a major Fate disturbance in the Gloria Empire and faced a massive Underworld beast tide. At Pamir Academy, Anvis discovered that Players carrying out his quests were indirectly earning him Fate Feedback and loosening his Diviner class level.

• Star clapped, shattering Blazing Wing’s projection and revealing him as the mole.
• The Leader warned the Black Robed Men against private schemes and postponed action until the coming event disrupted the Continental Web of Fate.
• Gray Mist predicted that the change would occur in the southeastern Gloria Empire within three days, and Voice of the Dead reported a massive Underworld beast tide moving in the same direction.
• Anvis traced his rising Fate Feedback to Players carrying out his quests, whose actions had altered the fates of people across the empire.

Anvis decided to invest more resources in the Mysteries Society, hoping to attract players and harvest more Fate Feedback as his Spiritual Synchronization Rate continued to rise too slowly. The next day, a Green-Haired Male Student pitched Anvis an idea for breeding Slimes with Dragon traits.

• Anvis realized that Mysteries Society members could provide Fate Feedback and decided to expand the faction by adding rare resources to its exchange store.
• Anvis noted that his Spiritual Synchronization Rate had reached eleven percent but was increasing more slowly than he wanted, while the Old Days Secret Scripture refused to absorb other ancient Alien Powers.
• The next day, a Green-Haired Male Student told Anvis he wanted to combine Dragons and Slimes to create a new species with traits from both.

Anvis investigated the disappearance of the Elemental Little Dragon from his laboratory and tasked Seer Silver with tracing its spatial destination. Fiona visited him to announce that she had performed her first summoning ritual and gained an initial summoned creature, leaving Anvis suspecting it was the missing dragon.

• Anvis left Beiqi after receiving an alert that something unusual had happened in his laboratory.
• Anvis found the incubation zone empty and reviewed the recordings, which showed the Elemental Little Dragon vanishing amid an anomalous spatial fluctuation.
• Anvis ordered Seer Silver to calculate the fluctuation's coordinates and send the results to his Identity Plate.
• Fiona came to visit Anvis, and he welcomed her into his home.
• Fiona told Anvis that she had completed her first summoning ritual and obtained an initial summoned creature, prompting him to suspect it was the Elemental Little Dragon.

Fiona’s initial summon turned out to be the Vortex Dragon Anvis had hatched, and he agreed to let her raise it while continuing to study it. Suspecting fate had brought the dragon to Fiona, Anvis prepared a prophecy ritual to investigate.

• Fiona led Anvis to her room, where the Vortex Dragon and Kate had made a mess while playing.
• Fiona scolded Kate and the Vortex Dragon, then asked Anvis to identify her initial summon.
• Anvis explained that he had hatched the Vortex Dragon from an extraterrestrial egg and had been studying it in his laboratory.
• Fiona worried she should give the dragon back to Anvis, but he reassured her that she could keep it and asked her to bring it for examinations every seven days.
• The Vortex Dragon asked to bring one thing to Anvis’s laboratory, and its gaze settled on Kate.
• Anvis prepared a prophecy ritual, suspecting fate had influenced the dragon’s arrival and that it matched the star in his prophecy.

Anvis entered the Web of Fate and discovered that a skilled prophet had manipulated the Vortex Crystal’s fate, linking it to Fiona and disrupting his Laboratory’s protections. He suspected the Star Gazer and later began scanning the Crystal Egg with Fiona present.

• Anvis used a secret ritual to enter the Surface Space of the Web of Fate and trace the Vortex Crystal’s fate thread.
• Anvis found a transparent thread linking the crystal to Fiona’s fate and detected the influence of a skilled prophet.

• Anvis showed Fiona the Crystal Egg’s hatching records and ordered Seer Silver to scan the Vortex Dragon and Little Cat Kate at nonlethal levels.

Anvis completed the Elemental Young Dragon’s examination and spent the evening with Fiona, telling her a story beneath the stars. He then revealed a newly appeared Silver Star beside Purple Moon Emis and hinted that it was why he had asked Fiona to stay.

• Anvis finished examining the Elemental Young Dragon and told Fiona to bring her back for regular checkups.
• Fiona reassured the young dragon by warning that disobedience would mean another visit to Anvis’s laboratory.
• Anvis and Fiona relaxed on the terrace and talked about how they used to spend time together before he left the castle.
• Anvis told Fiona a story about chocobos hiding from danger and compared their behavior to people who avoided looming problems.
• Anvis pointed out a dim Silver Star that had appeared beside Purple Moon Emis.

A star appeared over Yar Continent and descended as the second wave of fate began, drawing the attention of Prophets and people across the land. Its smaller fragment fell in Magna Province, while the larger one plunged into the Endless Sea.

• Brentz and Orvanni discussed the altered Web of Fate and prepared for a head-on conflict as the foretold upheaval began.
• Gray Mist and two companions sensed the Web of Fate trembling and watched the dim star from the ruins in the Qatar Great Desert.
• Fiona spotted the star from Pamir Academy, and she and Anvis made wishes as it brightened and streaked toward the Empire's southeast.
• People and powerful Professionals across Yar Continent watched the Falling Star, while the High-Ranked concluded that fate's backlash made attacking it too dangerous.
• The Falling Star split in two, with the smaller half striking Magna Province and the larger half crashing into the Endless Sea.

The first version update began after a star fell across the sky, disconnecting all Players and triggering the second great upheaval of the Web of Fate. Last Dragonborn logged back in to find new game systems and a changed Tiramisu, while the continent’s powers focused on the star fragment that struck Magna Province.

• The Players discussed the falling star and the upcoming update on the forums after being disconnected.
• Last Dragonborn logged back in after half an hour and found that six Magic Hours had passed in the game.
• Elf read the Ver1.0 update notes, which introduced guilds, costumes, live streaming, and other system functions.
• Tiramisu appeared beside Last Dragonborn with a visible black cat tail and said she had previously kept it in her inventory.
• The continent’s high-ranking powers identified the star as the source of the upheaval and learned that its smaller fragment had fallen in Magna Province of the Gloria Empire.

A fallen star revealed the wreckage of an ancient Floating City, leading the assembled factions to suspect its Eternal Core had survived. After recalling the devastating Battle of Silver Sand Sea and the continent’s long search for Sky City wreckage, the factions entered the ruins to search for the core.

• The Enoch Family's two Ninth Rank Limit experts redirected most of the fallen star's impact force and limited the damage.
• The star revealed a vast ruined city with a damaged High Tower, whose resemblance to the Magic Council's Floating City led the Professionals to suspect it was a Sky City wreck.
• The chapter recounted how the Judgment Army lost the Battle of Silver Sand Sea against the Magic Council's Floating City, while Gloria II's covert team withdrew without explanation.
• The prospect that the ruins held an intact Eternal Core reignited the major factions' ambitions to claim a Floating City.
• The assembled factions exchanged wary glances, then rushed into the city without attacking one another.

Anvis sensed the Fallen Star’s impact and advanced to Sixth Rank Prophet, then warned Duke Carlot that the ruins could threaten Ninth Rank Experts. The expedition left many experts gravely injured, but Pomona survived by sending an avatar, and Carlot rewarded Anvis with the Ring of Fidels.

• Anvis sensed the Web of Fate shift as the Fallen Star struck and advanced to Sixth Rank Prophet.

• Carlot rewarded Anvis with the Ring of Fidels after Pomona expressed gratitude for the warning.

Anvis requested the Ring of Fidels, knowing it could unlock one of seven hidden treasure vaults left by Emperor Fidels, and planned to bypass its bloodline restriction. Meanwhile, Spark tried to recruit Luo Qi, who said he would consider joining if they persuaded his friend Matt, but the recruiter revealed Matt had already agreed.

• Anvis asked Duke Carlot for the Ring of Fidels and explained that he had foreseen its existence.
• Anvis recalled that the ring was a key to Emperor Fidels's hidden treasure vaults and that later generations had learned to bypass its bloodline judgment.
• After the Falling Star's descent, reports of injured Ninth Rank Guardians spread, and secret groups began taking advantage of the turmoil.
• A Spark recruiter contacted Luo Qi and urged him to join its effort to overthrow noble rule.
• Luo Qi hesitated because of the class divide and asked the recruiter to persuade his friend Matt first.
• The recruiter told Luo Qi that Matt Typhon had already agreed to join Spark.

Anvis monitored Matt as rival organizations tried to recruit him, then instructed him to gain their trust and befriend Luo Qi. Meanwhile, conflicts among foreign Professionals plunged the Gloria Empire into chaos until the empire intervened, and the chapter ended with Anvis learning that the Old Days Secret Scripture had finished evolving.

• Matt reported to Anvis in dreams about the people who approached him, and Anvis told him to accept recruitment offers, including one from the Enoch Family.
• Anvis had Matt pursue a friendship with Luo Qi, and the two became friends over the next half month.
• Foreign High-Ranked Professionals fought across the empire, causing widespread destruction and killing mercenaries and adventurers caught in the clashes.

• The Imperial Magic Research Institute sent a team led by Sai Starschaser to study the Fallen Star Remains, while Duke Carlot and another Olyvendi Ninth Rank Professional suppressed intruders in Carlas Province.
• Anvis learned that the Old Days Secret Scripture had finished evolving.

Anvis examined the evolved Old Days Secret Scripture and found two new prophecies that seemed connected to the sunken half of Sky City. Duke Carlot told him that the royal family wanted Fiona to marry the Eighth Prince and asked him to keep her away from the Ninth Prince while the family handled the proposal.

• Anvis discovered that the Old Days Secret Scripture had finished evolving and revealed two new prophetic passages about fallen stars, ancient ruins, and a distant darkness.
• Anvis recalled what was known about the sunken half of Sky City and recognized that little information about its contents had survived.
• Anvis told Duke Carlot that Fiona had adapted well to the academy and summoned one of his rare experimental specimens.
• Duke Carlot explained that the royal family had proposed a marriage between Fiona and the Eighth Prince, which he had temporarily resisted.
• Duke Carlot asked Anvis to watch over Fiona and keep her from forming a relationship with the Ninth Prince.

Anvis agreed to help Duke Carlot prevent Fiona from being forced into a political marriage, then asked for his father’s aid in capturing a Seventh-Rank Magical Beast and proposed using his Outsider faction to explore the fallen ruin. He later arranged to meet Prince Lanno, whose potential pursuit of Fiona he planned to address directly, and greeted him at the Academy.

• Anvis declined resource compensation and asked Duke Carlot to help capture a special Magical Beast on the twenty-third day of Icy Moon Month, and the Duke agreed.
• Anvis asked about the ruin in Magna Province and the unrest caused by the Outsiders, then proposed that his faction explore the ruin for the Empire.
• Duke Carlot said the ruin was still being investigated and that the Empire was testing whether Outsiders could gather information inside it.
• After speaking with the Duke, Anvis decided to meet Prince Lanno and sent word that he hoped to see him.
• Three days later, Anvis entered an Academy residence and met Prince Lanno, who greeted him politely.

Anvis met with Prince Lanno to propose they quietly ignore the royal family’s order to contact Anvis’s younger sister, offering his personal support in return. Lanno accepted, leaving the two to cooperate against the order.

• Anvis met Prince Lanno privately and asked whether he had received the royal family’s instruction to contact Anvis’s younger sister.
• Lanno confirmed that the message had arrived three days earlier and challenged Anvis’s suggestion to set it aside.
• Anvis offered Lanno his support, including High-Ranked Professional forces and help easing pressure from his elder brothers, in exchange for Lanno going through the motions without real effort.
• Lanno questioned whether the Olyvendi Family was behind Anvis’s proposal, and Anvis insisted he was acting personally.
• Lanno agreed to Anvis’s proposal, and they agreed to cooperate.

After meeting Prince Lanno to discuss a tentative alliance, Anvis picked up Fiona and brought her young Vortex Dragon to his Laboratory to investigate its unusual craving for a glowing stone. The tests revealed no noticeable changes, so Fiona searched Anvis's warehouse records for a possible match.

• Anvis and Prince Lanno discussed cooperation and left their meeting satisfied with the tentative arrangement.
• Anvis headed to the Summoning Academy to meet Fiona and take her to lunch.
• Fiona told Anvis that her Vortex Dragon sensed a need to eat a special glowing stone, and Anvis offered to examine it.
• Anvis tested the young dragon in his Laboratory but found no noticeable changes in its condition.
• Anvis gave Fiona a crystal ball containing the warehouse resource list so she could look for the stone the dragon wanted.

Anvis took Fiona and Kate to the Gray Raven Market to find five obscure materials that might meet Fia’s needs. A young guide led them to Jimmy’s Alchemy Shop, where they hoped to find the stones.

• Anvis guessed that Crescent Stone, Star Tear Crystal, Miasma Crystal Stone, Oracle Ore, and Void Crystal Stone might be the materials Fia wanted.
• Anvis took Fiona and Kate to the Gray Raven Market after Fiona asked to bring Kate along.
