Chapter Summaries

Moros set resource quotas for the politicians ruling the Australian Continent and ordered them to suppress resistance while he seized the regular army’s Honkai Energy-enhanced weapons. With Expert Vill-V accompanying him, he took control of the military bases, crushing the few that resisted, and comforted Vill-V after she witnessed the resulting deaths.

• Moros gave the politicians annual resource targets and warned them that failing to meet them would bring deadly punishment.
• Moros granted the politicians limited command over low-tier Undead and set out to seize the Australian army’s weapons for his Undead Legion.
• The Conductor yielded control of Vill-V’s body to Expert Vill-V, who accompanied Moros to inspect the military’s weapons and equipment.
• Moros and Vill-V visited the military bases, where most officers and soldiers surrendered and their weapons were transported to the Demiplane.
• Moros used the Weakness Curse to overcome bases that resisted, and the fallen patriots were raised as Undead servants.
• Moros embraced Vill-V after she witnessed the violence, while she insisted on staying to observe the takeover.

Moros completed the takeover of Australia and New Zealand, then returned to the Mage Guild with Vill-V to teach her magic. Meanwhile, Herbert seized control of his conglomerate after Forget-Me-Not assassinated his vampire father.

• Moros finished disarming Australia's military bases, flew to Wellington with Vill-V, and secured New Zealand's surrender and the dissolution of its Defense Force.
• Moros brought Vill-V back to the Mage Guild and began teaching her the common language of Ashan World and magic.
• Herbert cooperated with human society's rulers to suppress anti-vampire resistance, then waited through the Second Great Collapse and the Secret War for a chance to reclaim his conglomerate.
• After the Fuyuan City Treaty, anti-vampire elites connected Herbert with Councillor Vincent, who sent Forget-Me-Not to assassinate Herbert's vampire father.
• Herbert received proof of the assassination and learned that he had become head of the conglomerate.

After Forget-Me-Not assassinated a low-level vampire, Moros arranged a second auction with twenty Vampire Transformation Daggers to expand the vampires’ power and divert human elites’ attention. Vill-V attended with Moros, whose presence led the elites to treat her as their equal, and the auction began with the display of an ancient heirloom.

• Moros sensed that Forget-Me-Not had killed one of the low-level vampires and decided to escalate the conflict by holding another auction.
• Moros offered twenty Vampire Transformation Daggers, and Fuyuan City's elites publicized the auction rather than risk monopolizing it.
• Elites from around the world traveled to Fuyuan City, bringing rare valuables to add to the auction and seeking the daggers.
• Moros invited Vill-V to the auction while she had paused her research on Collapse Energy weapons, and she accepted.
• Vill-V entered beside Moros, and the attendees inferred that she held exceptional standing and treated her as an equal.
• Moira opened the auction, and the first item presented was an heirloom treasure from an ancient civilization.

Moros attended Fuyuan City’s elite auction with Vill-V, buying Collapse Energy Railgun research materials as a gift for her and acquiring an African uranium mining site. The auction ended with the Vampire Transformation Daggers up for bidding, and the story left off as their starting price was announced.

• Moros and Vill-V ignored the early auction items while wealthy guests bid on an antique jade artifact and other lots.
• Vill-V showed interest in the Collapse Energy Railgun research materials but could not afford the escalating bids, so Moros bought them for 40 million Mu Continent Currency and gave them to her.
• Moros later bid on and won the ownership documents for a uranium ore mining site after other bidders withdrew rather than compete with him.
• Moros and Vill-V watched the remaining auction items without bidding as the event approached its finale.
• Moira unveiled twenty Vampire Transformation Daggers and announced a starting bid of 100 million Mu Continent Currency.

Moros’s auction of the Vampire Transformation Daggers concluded with Beatrice buying the first and transforming into a vampire, while the remaining daggers fetched even higher prices. After collecting more than 500 billion Mu Continent Currency in wealth and assets, Moros returned to his cemetery territory and began studying Teleportation as Vill-V continued learning magic.

• Beatrice outbid the other bidders with 22 billion Mu Continent Currency, bought a Vampire Transformation Dagger, and used it to become a low-level vampire.
• The remaining nineteen Vampire Transformation Daggers sold at even higher prices, earning Moros more than 500 billion Mu Continent Currency in money and assets.
• Moros took control of the auction’s mines, equipped them with undead workers and guards, and used serious offenders from Australia and New Zealand as undead laborers.
• Moros returned to the cemetery territory and visited the Mage Guild library, where Vill-V had rapidly learned Ashan World’s common language.
• Moros considered Vill-V’s limited time for magical study due to her rotating personalities and increased his own research to avoid falling behind.
• Moros opened a scroll and began studying the fourth-level Light Magic spell Teleportation as attention from many human rulers drifted elsewhere.

Mobius told Moros that her dissection of the Second Herrscher’s corpse had revealed a basis for the Flame-Chaser Project, while he continued his magical research. Meanwhile, a covert war between elites over vampire rights ended in a treaty that divided vampire transformations among the factions, leaving human society’s leaders to reassess their interests.

• Elysia confronted Mobius in the dissection room, but Mobius rejected her warning and declared that she intended to become a god by her own hand.
• Mobius contacted Moros through the Spectre Jar and described her discovery that the Second Herrscher’s corpse could make the Flame-Chaser Project preliminarily feasible once fully studied.
• Moros promised Mobius his support, then returned to researching the Teleportation spell in the Mage Guild library.
• The opposing elite factions escalated their dispute over vampire rights into a covert war fought by private armies and assassins, with many soldiers, assassins, and rulers killed.
• The elites ended the bloodshed by signing a treaty that allocated vampire transformations according to each faction’s power and status.
• The treaty allowed surviving elites to claim interests left vacant by the dead, while Forget-Me-Not’s reputation and Moth to Fire’s standing among the elites grew.

After human society’s vampire conflict subsided, Moros spent two years advancing his magic and reached Level 30, gaining enough strength to attempt a Hero Template Advancement Mission. Before leaving for another world to pursue the mission, he told Vill-V and prepared to reassure those close to him.

• The elites suppressed public debate about vampires, and Herbert was reported to have died of illness while Moros remained detached from the conflict.
• Moros continued learning advanced spells and clearing wilderness monsters until he reached Level 30 and raised his combat strength substantially.
• Confident in his survival abilities, Moros decided to seek a mission to advance his White Common Hero Template to Green Excellent.
• Moros recognized that the mission could take him to another world and that the Spectre Jar might not maintain cross-plane communication, so he decided to explain his departure to Vill-V and the others.
• Vill-V reacted with surprise when Moros told her he would leave for a while, but trusted him as their relationship had grown beyond teacher and apprentice.

Moros said goodbye to Vill-V and promised Elysia and Mobius he would return from another world with souvenirs. He accepted a Green Hero Template Advancement Mission, arrived in a Honkai-ravaged Dubai in 2015, and faced an Emperor-class Honkai Beast as Schicksal Valkyries prepared to deploy.

• Matilda led the Phosphor Sand Squad toward the Sandstorm Emperor-class Honkai Beast, but Schicksal ordered them to find the unknown figure who had already eliminated it.

• Moros refused the invitation and challenged Durandal, who summoned Eternal Silence Hler and charged at him.

Durandal fought Moros over Dubai while Matilda and Sophia moved to destroy the hive distracting her. Moros withdrew rather than prolong the battle, leaving Durandal to destroy the hive as he disappeared from Schicksal’s view.

• Durandal broke through Moros’s Wind Elementals and continued pursuing him despite the swarm of magical bees from his summoned hive.
• Matilda ordered Sophia to help destroy the hive and assigned Susanna to report the battle to headquarters.

• Moros used Instant Travel to escape Durandal, who could not keep up with his spatial teleportation.

• Moros avoided confronting Su and the Kevin Puppet before preparing, and left for a warehouse district to collect materials for his undead army.

Moros cautiously prepared to seize the Second Divine Key, Thousand Worlds, while Schicksal’s forces arrived in London to pursue it. After deciding not to interfere in the confrontation at Glastonbury Tor, he watched Schicksal defeat World Serpent and take control of the Isle of Britain.

• Moros rejected a riskier plan for an S-rank evaluation and used the Puppet Master to control the warehouse district while building an elite Undead Troops force.

Moros began his attempt to claim the Second Divine Key, Thousand Worlds, using a riot and undead forces to distract Schicksal while exposing the Key. Otto sent Durandal and Rita to secure it, and Moros faced the Kevin Puppet guarding the Key.

• Moros ordered Puppet Master's controlled civilians to riot and deployed his undead forces to block London’s roads as he traveled toward London Bridge.
• Moros used a modified Teleportation spell to reveal Thousand Worlds above the Thames, and the controlled civilians erupted into violence and chaos across London.
• Otto recognized the riot as a diversion and ordered Durandal and Rita to seize Thousand Worlds, while telling Schicksal’s forces to ignore the rampaging undead.
• The Kevin Puppet attacked Moros with an imitation Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgment, and Moros countered with Firewall before the Puppet broke through the flames with a blast of frost.

Moros defeated the Kevin Puppet with Arcane Crystal and other Battle Spells, but Durandal and Rita interrupted him before he could secure the Second Divine Key. While Moros fought the Valkyries, his Flying Undead attacked Schicksal’s fleet, leaving the battle over London’s skies unresolved.

• Moros blasted the Kevin Puppet into the Thames with Arcane Crystal, then slowed and battered it with Law of Delay and further Battle Spells until it was trapped by a Blade Barrier.

• Durandal attacked Moros, who interrupted his chant and summoned his Flying Undead while fending off her and Rita.
• Schicksal’s Floating Fleet fired on the Flying Undead, as Vampire Lords shielded the Spectral Dragons and the dragons struck the largest battleship with Death Dragon Breath.

Durandal seized Thousand Worlds, but Moros summoned a monster horde to delay her and recognized the overwhelming power of her Immortal Star Anchor form.

• Schicksal’s Floating Fleet destroyed three Floating Battleships before Moros recalled six Spectral Dragons to help him escape Durandal and stop the Kevin Puppet from activating Thousand Worlds.

• Durandal swept away the summoned horde with a single strike of Black Abyss White Flower, and Moros recognized her as a High Legendary Rank opponent.

Moros defeated Durandal by outlasting her World Bubble and took the Second Divine Key, completing his Hero Template advancement mission. After returning to the Congress with a Green Excellent Template and stronger abilities, he reunited with Vill-V in the Demiplane.

• Moros exhausted Durandal's World Bubble, weakened her with spells, and took Thousand Worlds while Su allowed the exchange to preserve Durandal's safety.
• Moros stored the Second Divine Key and vanished from the Sea of Quantum, completing the mission with an A rating and receiving upgrades to his attributes, skills, talent, and specialty.

The Moth to Fire Council agreed to investigate the Third Herrscher’s authority, but its members remained divided over how quickly to launch a major operation. Meanwhile, Moros comforted the newly awakened Miss Expert, and the chapter ended with Australia and New Zealand’s representatives continuing to act under his influence.

• Councillor Vincent proposed determining the Third Herrscher’s authority first, and Councillors Wang and Alberto supported him while Councillor Ingrid opposed an immediate joint operation.
• The Moth to Fire Council agreed to probe the Third Herrscher, as its leaders shifted Moth to Fire’s focus away from Moros and toward Collapse incidents.

• Miss Expert accused Moros of taking advantage of her, then sobbed; Moros apologized and held her until she began to calm down.
