Chapter Summaries

Roger moved the Lord of the Fallen to his Virtual Divine Kingdom and discovered that the Fallen at their headquarters had been contaminated by his power.

• The Magic Goddess noticed the Elves' machinery lacked a reliable power source and asked Roger whether they should help them.

Roger discovered that Rost’s discount offer had converted more than a dozen Dwarf Elves to the Technology God, and he realized their purchases could help industrialize Druid Potion. In the Elven Capital, Labuliekang prepared to bring in experts from Rost Territory while an elderly Druid worried about brewing potions with runes and giant vats.

• Roger entered the Elven Capital with the Magic Goddess and discovered that a Dwarf Elf approaching them was his convert.

• Labuliekang said he had sent giant eagles to Rost Territory for experts, while an elderly Druid questioned whether runes and giant vats could safely brew potions.

Labuliekang persuaded the Druids to accept magitech production of stable, inexpensive potions and arranged a large Nutrient Potion order with Viscount Rost. After hearing Labuliekang pray for help with the deal, Roger considered adding trade and quest functions to the Magic Net.

• Labuliekang reassured the Druids that magitech-made potions could spread the Nature God's blessings and strengthen their reputation.

Labuliekang reviewed Viscount Rost’s plan for a continent-wide trade network and recognized its potential to become a powerful commercial consortium, though it would be difficult to establish. In Roger’s Void Divine Kingdom, the Lord of the Fallen watched Roger test a massive six-barreled weapon and learned that successful experiments would later be built in reality.

• The manager gave Labuliekang Viscount Rost’s proposal for a layered trade network that would connect regional agents and merchants.

• Roger tested the Mana Railgun, which fired iron balls about fifteen hundred meters and blasted craters into the ground.
• The goat statue suggested using rune-enhanced Mana Bombs to increase the railgun's power and range, and Roger began modifying a shell.
• Book arrived and praised Roger's cannon before telling him that the Writing God's custom application was complete.
• Roger returned from the Virtual Divine Kingdom to review the application and prepare to launch it.

Roger and the Magic Goddess refined the Magic Net’s reading feature, and the Writing God reformatted the church’s library to make books easier to read. The new reading and writing features launched, and Magnemite eagerly explored them with the Mage’s Apprentice in Rost Territory.

• In Rost Territory, the Mage’s Apprentice showed Magnemite the update announcement, and Magnemite opened the reading feature to browse its books.

Apprentice discovered a library of books in the Magic Net’s Reading feature, including a comprehensive guide to Magitech Devices, while readers and the Writing Church celebrated the new feature. The chapter ended in Epic City, where a butcher-like man asked the city lord whether he had entered the fourth sequence.

• Apprentice opened the Reading feature and found Leiyidia’s 200-million-word Elf Epic, then discovered the Technology God’s guide to Magitech Devices.

• On the city lord’s terrace, a butcher-like man asked the city lord whether he had entered the fourth sequence.

The Lord of Epic City persuaded the burly Bard that the Magic Net could give Kingdom Hunt a much wider audience, prompting him to travel to the Dawn Kingdom and publish his work online. In the Music and Banquet God's Divine Kingdom, the Goddess of Art asked the Music God whether he had invited the Technology God to the banquet.

• The Lord of Epic City told the burly man that the Magic Net could eventually reach everyone and offer Kingdom Hunt new readers.

• The Goddess of Art asked the Music God whether he had invited the Technology God to the banquet.

The gods at a banquet learned that the Magic Net had added reading and writing functions through a partnership with the Writing God, and they debated how it might benefit them. Meanwhile, Roger finished a Mana Railgun and demonstrated its power to Betty, leaving her stunned.

• The Goddess of Art told the Music God that the Magic Net had added reading and writing functions through the Writing God’s partnership with it.

• Roger explained to Betty that the railgun could serve as mid-level combat power, while her Mana Cannons were suited for high-end battlefields.
• Roger fired a shell from the railgun, producing a Flame Vortex on impact and stunning Betty.

Roger concluded that Mana Railguns and Mana Cannons should be developed and distributed together as war threatened Rost Territory’s progress. The next day, Viscount Rost saw an apprentice’s newly invented spinning and weaving machine, which Magnemite had helped improve.

• Roger explained that a Mana Railgun combined an accurate launcher with Mana Bomb shells, and Betty agreed that it complemented Mana Cannons.
• Roger said he would equip himself with both kinds of cannons and spread the technology to the mortal world because the War God and threatened interest groups could provoke another war.

• Bonnie began reading the textbook and discovered that the Wild Mage had started a public class on making a Self-Charging Magic Array and a Magic Energy Network.

The Wild Mage revealed the Self-Charging Magic Array and Magic Energy Network, hoping to spread magitech and boost demand for machinery across the continent. Viscount Rost advised him to frame the announcement as revenge after a dispute, and the Wild Mage published detailed instructions as nobles and readers reacted with excitement.

• Viscount Rost told the Wild Mage that spreading the technology would expand demand for magitech machinery, despite reducing their charging business.
• The Wild Mage argued that the announcement could promote agricultural machinery, Druid Potions, and large-scale cotton planting.
• Viscount Rost advised the Wild Mage to invent a public falling-out so nobles would believe the technology had been revealed out of spite.
• The Wild Mage accepted Viscount Rost's advice and published detailed instructions for the Self-Charging Magic Array and Magic Energy Network on Magic Space.
• Readers praised the technology and declared that the Wild Mage had opened a new era.

Wild Mage’s Self-Charging Magic Array plans won widespread attention, prompting the Graycastle Empire to question its own approach while the Fallen rapidly adopted the technology. Within three days, more than five thousand territories had begun building networks and arrays, and Viscount Rost profited from the surge in demand for materials.

• Wild Mage reflected on how people who had once mocked his Self-Charging Magic Array now praised his every release.
• Graycastle Empire’s Magic Net laboratory debated whether its own technical approach was wrong and considered testing Wild Mage’s plans.

• Three days after Wild Mage released the plans, more than five thousand territories had begun construction, driving up material prices.
• Viscount Rost made a fortune selling materials he had stockpiled, expecting prices to fall as production increased.

The Pope of War ordered the Graycastle Empire’s War God Church to stir up a prolonged war in response to the Technology God Church’s growing influence. The church planned to raise money through donations and atonement fees while focusing its efforts on neighboring countries and the Dawn Kingdom.

• The Pope of War told the church leaders that another god had transformed half of the Tiele Chiefdom and called for a continent-wide war.
• An archbishop identified the Technology God Church as the threat, but the Pope of War forbade targeting the Technology God and instead called for purging mortals acting in His name.

• The tractor’s young driver recalled how frightened he had been the first time he rode it, then drove it toward the gathered onlookers.
• Rost and Count Grano exchanged greetings, and Rost explained that the tractor could plow fields or carry goods using different attachments.
• Count Grano asked to see how the tractor plowed and how efficiently it worked.

Viscount Rost demonstrated Magitech agricultural machinery and sold tractors and potions to Count Grano, persuading the farming family to embrace Magitech industrialization. The deal left Grano considering cooperation with Rost and the possibility of industrializing his own territory.

• Rost demonstrated a Magitech Tractor plowing difficult wilderness, and the Grano Family recognized its potential to transform farming.
• Count Grano asked the tractor’s price, then agreed to buy twenty for 3,000 Gold Shields each, provided they arrived in time for planting.
• Rost sold Count Grano Druid Potions and other mass-produced potions, explaining that Magitech Industrialization had lowered production costs in the Elven Kingdom.

Viscount Rost promoted the Grano Family’s use of Magitech Devices, sparking widespread discussion, while Roger showed Betty how the Technology God Church had gained a vast following through Wolf General’s work in the former Tiele Chiefdom. The chapter left Roger and Betty wondering how Magitech Devices would affect the Tiele Chiefdom and why the Graycastle Empire had adopted so few of them.

• Viscount Rost spread news that the Grano Family had begun using Magitech Devices, and his Magic Net users drove widespread discussion of Magitech Tractors.
• Roger praised Rost to Betty, then revealed that Wolf General had converted the region from Redleaf Forest to Eagle Nest Mountain into a faith region for the Technology God Church.
• Roger showed Betty a map of believers, which revealed far more converts and fanatics in the former Tiele Chiefdom than in the Dawn Kingdom.
• Roger explained that Wolf General’s followers had turned to the Technology God after the War God abandoned them and the Technology God Church rescued them, though her duties as a general and heir might keep her from leading the Ecclesiastical Army.
• Betty and Roger wondered how Magitech Devices would change the Tiele Chiefdom and why the Graycastle Empire had so few, while Roger noted the Elven Kingdom already had many casual believers.

Roger and Betty prepared to introduce the Second-Generation Magic Net Ring, which ordinary people could activate without magical talent, and sent Hedy to test it in the Dawn Kingdom's capital. Bellion realized the rings could transform communication and government, but when he tried to buy them, nobles had already formed a long queue outside Hedy's shop.

• Betty explained that the Second-Generation Magic Net Ring used a Flint Magicstone to generate the magic power needed for activation, though Roger worried about occasional failures.
• Roger decided to have Hedy promote the rings around the Dawn Kingdom's capital and told Shu to install a prepared function on them.
• The next morning, Bellion's attendant reported that Hedy's Magic Net Service Hall had released a device ordinary people could use.
• Bellion recognized the ring's potential to let the kingdom communicate directly with ordinary people and ordered his men to buy every available one and notify Rost.
