Chapter Summaries

Andrew refused the Void Demoness’s offer to become a negative being, but decided to study her transformation and brought her back to the Reality World. In Hell, the Demon planned to return to the Van Helsing World and become a Lord of Negative Energy, and asked Alesha to help create a soul-bearing copy of him.

• Andrew rejected the Void Demoness’s proposal to rule the Negative Legion with him and said he would remain human, but told her he might have a use for her and wanted to study her.

• The Demon considered returning to the Van Helsing World to become its Lord of Negative Energy and gain more negative aura, but worried that moving his true body would attract Chthon’s attention.
• The Demon asked Alesha to use her Mirror Replication Technique to create a soul-bearing copy of him, and spent many treasures to amplify her strength for the attempt.

Andrew and Alesha secretly sabotaged the Demon’s attempt to create a soul-bearing avatar by implanting a Virtual Seed, while the Demon began building the avatar to seize the Negative Legion. The chapter ended with Chthon learning that the Void Demoness had betrayed them and Scar urging him to escalate the war.

Chthon recruited Wind Demon and Commander Rita into plots to take the King of Negativity’s throne, offering Rita a brand that could help her retain Skyfather power. As Chthon and the commanders secretly entered the Van Helsing World, Rita reported to Andrew, who told her to feign cooperation but refuse to devour human souls.

• Chthon offered Wind Demon a chance to become the King of Negativity if he helped Chthon get close to Scar, and Wind Demon agreed only if the opportunity proved genuine.

• The archbishop told the Lord of Order that preparations for the Great Prayer Ceremony in New York would take at least seven days, and he agreed to descend then.
• The Lord of Order watched God being beaten by the Kung Fu Master and remained confident that no outsiders were present in the Van Helsing World.

• Andrew summoned the Earth Turtle and warned it that the attempt would cost it a great deal of life force.

Andrew used Earth Turtle’s vitality to create a growing Nine-Tails seed and briefly transformed Void Demoness into a Skyfather, then traveled with her to a hidden Minor Hell. There, they met Three-Eyes, its Lord and Hell Will, who explained how he had inherited the ruined realm and revealed that he was far weaker than his title suggested.

• Andrew sacrificed Earth Turtle’s vitality to develop the Nine-Tails seed within himself and used his Trinity Ability to give Void Demoness a one-second Skyfather experience.

• Andrew warned the Three-Eyed Demon that the King of Negativity’s forces would find Hell and urged him to become an ally.

Lord of Order and Lord of Chaos prepared to invade Van Helsing World and recruit Three-Eyed Demon to help kill Van Helsing’s clone. Three-Eyed Demon chose to consider Lord of Order’s offer, while Andrew’s hidden plans and a confidentiality contract kept the gathering in the Depths of Hell secret.

• Lord of Order agreed to sacrifice about a hundred thousand followers to open the Gate of Heaven, while Lord of Chaos planned to send Cain and recruit Three-Eyed Demon as backup.

• Chthon noticed the Lord of Order had not reacted to the Skyfather-level fighting, which Andrew had concealed, while the Lord of Order remained focused on breaking Andrew’s lock.
• The Lord of Chaos warned the Lord of Order to blast a gap in the lock so Cain could enter, and the Lord of Order opened a breach in space.
