Chapter Summaries

Rodan emerged from the volcano on Isla de Mara and unleashed a devastating ash storm as he pursued Monarch's aircraft toward Ghidorah. Taylor watched from hiding, hoping to collect Ghidorah's blood after the Oxygen Destroyer exploded.

Madison blamed herself for the devastation on the island, while Ghidorah regenerated, claimed dominion over the Titans, and unleashed them across the planet with King's Call. As Monarch struggled to respond and Godzilla lay unable to fight, Taylor sensed the call aboard his plane and headed toward a city where a great battle was about to begin.

• Madison shut herself in her room and condemned herself for approving the plan and hiding her mother's intentions from Mark.
• Monarch's rescue teams evacuated the known survivors from the ruined island and withdrew without searching the rubble further.

• Madison looked at her mother through tears and called her a demon.

Madison used ORCA to lure Ghidorah toward the football stadium, hoping to atone for the disaster caused by her mother’s plan. Taylor secretly followed her to learn how to operate ORCA, then confronted her as Ghidorah approached.

• Madison overheard Dr. Emma discussing how ORCA could draw the Titans toward Fenway Park and decided to act.
• Taylor waited for Madison to bring ORCA to the stadium, then followed her silently into the broadcast room.
• Madison connected ORCA to the stadium speakers and broadcast its signal at maximum volume.
• Ghidorah sensed the signal and flew toward the stadium, while Rodan followed after noticing Ghidorah had left.
• As Madison continued broadcasting from the rooftop, Taylor told her to stop and demanded that she hand over ORCA.

• Madison urged her parents to compensate Taylor for saving her, prompting Taylor to request only ORCA’s foundational ideas and methods.
• Mark and Emma explained ORCA’s principles and hypotheses while Taylor carefully recorded their knowledge and added his own analysis.
• After Taylor finished taking notes, the Black Mist above Mark and Emma dissipated, revealing that he had used the spell to weaken their senses and increase their confusion.

Taylor watched Ghidorah turn the battle around after absorbing electricity from a power station and overpower Godzilla. As Godzilla fell toward the city, Taylor and the armored carriage fled for the outskirts.

• Taylor refused Mark and Dr. Emma's attempt to learn whether their family could become wizards.
• Rodan nearly killed Mothra, but Mothra struck it with her tail stinger and both monsters fell exhausted.

• Ghidorah unleashed golden electricity, damaging Godzilla and destroying nearby fighter jets as Monarch's aircraft retreated.
• Ghidorah carried Godzilla above the clouds and hurled him toward the city, so Taylor and the Heavy Armored Knights sped toward the outskirts.

Ghidorah overwhelmed Godzilla and killed Mothra, whose remains triggered Godzilla's Burning Mode transformation. As Ghidorah drained Godzilla's power, Taylor refused to risk the ORCA and prepared a magical Recording Stone to lure Ghidorah instead.

• Ghidorah absorbed energy from the power plant and gained the upper hand against Godzilla.

• Taylor attached a Recording Stone containing the ORCA's sonic signal to a rock wolf so they could lure Ghidorah.

Taylor left the MonsterVerse before Godzilla fought Ghidorah in Burning Mode, then returned to the Merfolk Kingdom he had established. He found that Kano and Bobby had expanded it into an orderly, prosperous nation devoted to Wizards, where his arrival sparked an overwhelming display of worship.

• The Mud Giant Wolf used an ORCA Sound Stone to lure Ghidorah away from Godzilla, and Taylor recognized how powerfully ORCA affected Titans.
• Taylor said farewell to Mark, Emma, and Madison, gave Madison a Rock Giant Wolf puppet core, and left through a dark blue mirror.
• Taylor emerged in a coral forest and returned to the Merfolk Kingdom, which Kano and Bobby had greatly expanded during his absence.
• The merfolk flocked to Taylor and knelt in worship, making him uneasy, so he hurried to find Kano and Bobby.

Taylor returned to the Merfolk Kingdom and learned that Kano and Bobby had made its people fanatically loyal to Wizards and greatly increased their productivity. After more than two months of research, Krite announced that the conquest was nearly complete and told them to gather the resources they wanted before returning to the Wizard World.

• Taylor found Kano and Bobby relaxing at the palace, and they explained how they had reshaped the Merfolk Kingdom into a loyal, productive labor force.
• Taylor showed Kano and Bobby the Ghidorah bloodline he had collected, and they agreed it would be useful when they advanced to Level 1 Wizards.
• Taylor, Kano, and Bobby studied ORCA-related acoustics and examined samples from Godzilla, Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan while awaiting Krite's return.
• Krite returned after more than two months, praised Taylor's leadership of the Merfolk, and said the conquest of the Merfolk Plane was nearing its end.
• Krite told Taylor to take the resources he wanted before the White Tower Alliance sent personnel to manage the plane.

Taylor arranged for the merfolk and Puppet Legion to exploit the Merfolk Kingdom’s resources before the White Tower Alliance took control. A month later, Krite and a White Tower Alliance apprentice arrived to find the kingdom stripped bare and barren.

• Taylor accepted Krite’s instructions to gather resources, negotiated a fifty-fifty split of the merfolk’s output, and took control of the Puppet Legion.
• Taylor assigned Kano and Bobby to oversee the exploitation, while discussing future research into Titan Beast tissues, Mothra’s scale powder, and the runes in Titan Beast blood.
• Kano and Bobby ordered the merfolk leaders to mobilize their people, then prepared a diluted stimulant potion to keep the miners working without killing them.
• Over the next month, the merfolk worked with the Puppet Legion to mine resources and expand cultivation and sea beast production at full capacity.
• Krite arrived with a third-rank apprentice wearing a White Tower Alliance uniform, and both fell silent at the sight of the barren Merfolk Kingdom.

Krite handed the Merfolk Kingdom over to Apprentice Dak, who discovered the brutal methods Kano and Bobby had used to control its people and drive resource production. After returning to the White Tower Alliance, Krite examined Taylor’s enormous haul of resources and rewarded his apprentice with permission to choose two materials from his collection.

• Krite and Apprentice Dak toured the emaciated Merfolk Kingdom, and Krite transferred responsibility for the region to Dak.
• Dak dismissed the frail merfolk guards and studied the documents Kano and Bobby had left behind, learning how they had indoctrinated the merfolk into serving wizards.
• Krite and Taylor returned to the White Tower Alliance, where Krite inspected the Spatial Storage Ring packed with sea beasts, ores, and plants.
• Krite praised Taylor for gathering the resources and offered him two materials from his collection as an additional reward.

Taylor spent most of his planar-war resources on advanced experimental equipment, research materials, and potions to prepare for his eventual advancement to a level-one wizard. After studying Godzilla’s skin, he and his other personalities chose separate research paths, leaving him focused on reaching the limit of a level-three apprentice before absorbing his bloodline.

• Taylor used Krite’s connections to acquire magical metals, advanced laboratory equipment, an elemental life crystal, potion materials, and knowledge, then exchanged his savings for potions to restore his body and mental power during advancement.
• In his new laboratory, Taylor examined Godzilla’s skin and discovered special runes within its surface tissue that might be connected to fire and heat.
• Taylor considered how Godzilla’s thicker skin might improve his own defenses if he could transfer its structure to Ghidorah.
• Taylor, Kano, and Bobby agreed to specialize in separate fields: Kano in fire, Bobby in lightning, and Taylor in spatial magic.
• Taylor decided that their immediate goal was to reach the limit of a level-three apprentice and then absorb their bloodline to become a level-one wizard.
