• Nameless researches the two sword immortals and learns about the long-standing divide between sword-in-hand cultivators and flying-sword cultivators. He then accepts the mission and travels to Tabetan Star.

Character Developments

• Nameless: Demonstrates overwhelming combat ability and complete confidence, casually defeating Lan En without exerting himself.

His playful, trouble-seeking nature is emphasized when he deliberately escapes after the duel and eagerly accepts a potentially chaotic mission.

• Competing schools and philosophies: The disagreement between sword-in-hand and flying-sword cultivators reflects two different interpretations of Sword Unity, though the text treats their rivalry humorously rather than as an absolute ideological conflict.
• Entertainment and chaos: Nameless’s mission is not to prevent the duel but to make its outcome more entertaining, suggesting that his curiosity and enjoyment of unusual events often drive his actions.

• The law enforcement squad arrives, but the situation quickly becomes hopeless. Tokugawa activates the Star Lord’s Demon-Subduing Formation, trapping all living beings on Vagabond Star and preventing escape.
• Assef attacks recklessly but is instantly killed by a talisman. The squad realizes that neither they nor Tokugawa can resist the monster.
• The monster explains that its actions are an act of “retaliation,” though it admits that it is simply taking out its anger on innocent people.
• Nameless arrives, startling the monster and giving the law enforcement squad hope.
• Nameless identifies the creature as a Deathspawn Beast and asks what it desires. It declares that its greatest wish is to kill him because he is responsible for imprisoning its kind.
• The monster attacks Nameless through its puppets and masks, but Nameless effortlessly blocks the assault. He discovers that Tokugawa has already been fully corrupted.
• Nameless strikes the monster with a concentrated golden attack, destroying its limbs and shattering Vagabond Star’s core, though the planet survives because of its protective formations.
• The monster survives and reveals its name: Faceless, given to it by the “Grand Mother.” It intends to steal the faces of all living beings and become the “King of Faceless.”
• Faceless transforms from a spider-like creature into a four-armed humanoid covered in multiple eyes. Its true power is imitation and face-stealing: it can copy others, kill them, and acquire their abilities.
• Abandoning its weaker collection of stolen powers, Faceless uses all its origin energy to imitate Nameless, intending to defeat him with his own abilities and claim his power.

Character Developments

• Nameless demonstrates overwhelming strength and composure, defeating Faceless with a single controlled blow while remaining mindful of the planet’s destruction.
• He also shows insight into Deathspawn Beasts, recognizing the different desires associated with their physical traits and identifying Faceless’s connection to imitation and stolen identities.
• Tokugawa Masanao is revealed to be completely corrupted and turned into one of Faceless’s puppets, despite his immense power.
• Kobayashi Hiroya shifts from confidence to despair when he realizes the squad cannot win, then regains hope when Nameless appears.
• Assef’s impulsiveness leads directly to his death, emphasizing the overwhelming danger of Faceless.
• Faceless develops from a seemingly chaotic monster into a calculating enemy with a clear ambition: to gain freedom for its kind, destroy Nameless, and become their ruler.

Significant Themes

• Retaliation and misplaced vengeance: Faceless justifies attacking innocent people as retaliation, raising questions about whether revenge remains meaningful when directed at those uninvolved.
• Identity and stolen faces: Faceless’s abilities symbolize the loss of individuality and the danger of defining oneself through the identities and powers of others.
• Power and helplessness: Even Tokugawa and the law enforcement squad are powerless against Faceless, while Nameless operates on an entirely different level.
• Freedom versus imprisonment: Faceless sees Nameless as the representative of humanity’s imprisonment of Deathspawn Beasts, creating a conflict between human safety and the creatures’ desire for freedom.
• Corruption and possession: The masks physically and spiritually consume their victims, demonstrating how easily power can be turned against its original owner.

Character Interactions

• Kobayashi and Faceless: Kobayashi challenges the monster’s justification for attacking Vagabond Star’s innocent population, while Faceless responds with cynical logic about revenge.
• Nameless and Faceless: Their exchange reveals Faceless’s hatred of humanity’s leader and Nameless’s understanding of Deathspawn Beasts. Their verbal confrontation escalates into a battle.
• Nameless and Tokugawa: Nameless examines Tokugawa after defeating the puppets and confirms that he has already been irreversibly corrupted.
• Faceless and its puppets: Faceless controls Tokugawa and numerous civilians through masks, using them as a protective army and attacking force.
• The chapter ends with Faceless preparing to imitate Nameless, setting up a direct confrontation between the original and its stolen copy.

Chapter Summary: “Doll’s Heart”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Faceless uses the mask on his back to imitate Nameless’s origin and gains immense power, including Metallic Coating and other abilities.
• He attacks Nameless with overwhelming physical force, lasers, and copied techniques, but Nameless effortlessly evades him using the Imaginary Flowers and his vast experience.
• Faceless realizes that although he can copy Nameless’s powers, he lacks the memories and combat knowledge needed to use them effectively. Nameless’s enormous number of abilities becomes a major disadvantage for him.
• After being wounded by an unseen attack, Faceless transforms into Nether Mist to escape and decides to retreat so he can master his copied powers.
• Nameless refuses to let him go, judging that Faceless’s numerous murders make forgiveness impossible. He kills Faceless with the Mindheart Gun, empowered by Killing Intent Power.
• Nameless reports the encounter to Aries Palace, warning that the Deathspawn Beasts are extremely dangerous and requesting that all planned reinforcements and supplies be doubled.
• After Faceless’s death, his body leaves behind a heart-shaped crystal called Doll’s Heart. Nameless discovers that it can give inanimate objects a heart, allowing them to obey commands and grow wiser and stronger through battle.

Character Developments

• Faceless: Displays tremendous potential and adaptability, quickly learning to use copied abilities. However, his lack of experience and inability to identify Nameless’s current technique leave him vulnerable. His decision to flee reveals that he is intelligent and pragmatic, but his violent nature and past crimes ultimately seal his fate.
• Nameless: Demonstrates superior combat experience, restraint, and strategic thinking. Rather than immediately killing Faceless, he first evaluates the Deathspawn Beast’s abilities and potential. His judgment reflects a firm moral code: innate evil can be overcome, but repeated murder cannot be excused.
• Aries Palace: Becomes more concerned about the threat posed by the Deathspawn Beasts after hearing Nameless’s report and recognizes the seriousness of the situation.

Significant Themes

• Power versus mastery: Copying abilities does not equal understanding them. Experience, tactical knowledge, and familiarity are as important as raw strength.
• Potential and self-awareness: Deathspawn Beasts possess extraordinary potential, but their awareness also gives them weaknesses and makes them capable of being defeated.
• Justice and responsibility: Nameless believes forgiveness cannot erase the suffering of the dead. Faceless’s crimes demand punishment, emphasizing the difference between compassion and complicity.
• Creation and evolution: Doll’s Heart introduces the possibility of bringing objects to life and allowing them to develop intelligence and strength through experience, potentially creating new powerful beings.
• The growing threat: The chapter establishes that Faceless is only the first of three Deathspawn Beasts and hints that the Beast of Original Sin in Eternal Silence Space is the true source of the danger.

Character Interactions

• Faceless and Nameless engage in a one-sided battle of copied powers versus superior experience.
• Nameless deliberately provokes Faceless into revealing his limitations, then defeats him when he attempts to escape.
• Nameless communicates with Aries Palace, emphasizing the need for increased military preparation.
• The discovery of Doll’s Heart shifts the chapter’s focus from Faceless’s defeat to the new possibilities—and dangers—created by his mysterious remaining artifact.

Chapter Summary: “Giant Eye”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Nameless examines the Crystal Doll’s Heart obtained from Faceless. He realizes it originated from the Doll Saint Mother, a Wondrous Item whose Doll’s Hearts evolve through multiple stages, eventually becoming equivalent to powerful Wondrous Items.
• The Heart can either create a doll with copied abilities or be ground into powder and consumed to grant someone those abilities. However, Nameless recognizes that Faceless’s Crystal Heart cannot perfectly reproduce his strongest powers, such as Infinite Light Elemental Energy, Infinite Luck, and the Imaginary Flower.
• After the battle on Vagabond Star, Nameless releases a sphere of healing light. The resulting rain restores injured survivors, and he orders Kobayashi Hiroya to organize disaster relief before departing.
• Using the Hunting Guidance Needle, Nameless travels to Crimson Star, a primitive red-colored planet inhabited by the Red People.
• During a village celebration in Kiss Village, a Red child discovers Giant Eye, a massive eye-shaped Deathspawn Beast hiding in the forest. Rather than harming the child, Giant Eye tells them to return to the village.
• Nameless reveals himself and questions Giant Eye’s unusual restraint. He explains that he must kill Giant Eye because they previously killed his soldiers, regardless of whether the soldiers had obstructed Giant Eye’s path.
• Giant Eye accepts that Nameless has a legitimate reason to attack but declares that they will not passively await death.
• The two discuss Faceless. Giant Eye criticizes Faceless’s obsession with copying and collecting every ability, memory, and secret, arguing that imitation can never surpass the original.
• Giant Eye reveals that their own goal is not destruction or conquest, but understanding all things and principles in pursuit of true wisdom.
• Giant Eye then transforms, extending into a humanoid form with wings made entirely of eyes, and tells Nameless that he has helped them understand an important truth.

Character Developments

• Nameless continues to act as both a powerful warrior and a responsible leader. Although he is capable of destroying his enemies, he first ensures that Vagabond Star’s survivors are healed and organized for relief.
• He also demonstrates intellectual curiosity and restraint by attempting to communicate with Giant Eye instead of immediately attacking.
• Nameless’s sense of responsibility becomes clear: he believes that because the soldiers followed him, he is accountable for their deaths and must avenge them.
• Giant Eye is presented as an exceptionally unusual Deathspawn Beast. Unlike the destructive and desire-driven Faceless, Giant Eye is calm, rational, and observant.
• Giant Eye’s refusal to kill the Red child suggests that they are not motivated by indiscriminate cruelty. Their interest lies in knowledge and comprehension rather than slaughter.
• Faceless is characterized retrospectively as curious and greedy, seeking to possess every ability and secret through imitation. Giant Eye views this pursuit as fundamentally limited and short-sighted.
• Kobayashi Hiroya responds to Nameless with loyalty and respect, immediately following his order to coordinate relief efforts.

Significant Themes

• Responsibility and loyalty: Nameless believes leadership means accepting responsibility for the lives of those who follow him.
• Imitation versus originality: Faceless’s copying ability is contrasted with the limitations of replication; reproducing another’s abilities does not necessarily equal or surpass the original.
• Knowledge versus destruction: Giant Eye challenges the assumption that every Deathspawn Beast is inherently bloodthirsty, pursuing wisdom rather than domination.
• Moral perspective: Nameless and Giant Eye recognize that both possess reasons for their actions. Their conflict is not based purely on personal hatred but on opposing positions and obligations.
• The nature of true wisdom: Giant Eye’s transformation suggests that their encounter with Nameless has produced a new realization, though the specific truth remains unrevealed.

Character Interactions

• Nameless and Kobayashi Hiroya: Nameless heals the survivors and commands Kobayashi to manage disaster relief; Kobayashi responds respectfully and obediently.
• The Red child and Giant Eye: The child discovers Giant Eye but is spared. Giant Eye calmly instructs the child to leave, showing unexpected restraint.
• Nameless and Giant Eye: Their conversation begins with suspicion but develops into a philosophical exchange about responsibility, death, imitation, and wisdom. Nameless acknowledges Giant Eye’s unusual nature, while Giant Eye recognizes Nameless’s justified motive for attacking.
• Nameless and Faceless, indirectly: Through discussion, Giant Eye contrasts Faceless’s greed for copied abilities with the deeper pursuit of understanding, reinforcing the differences between the two Deathspawn Beasts.

Chapter Summary: “Prisoner”

Plot and events

Nameless confronts the Original Death Beast, which reveals that it has adopted a disciplined “stance” to suppress its desires and pursue wisdom more clearly. Because the Beast is now an enemy of the All-Heavens Council—and because Nameless will not let it remain uninvolved—it accepts that it must fight. To avoid harming the people of Kiss Village, Nameless and the Beast travel far into empty space.

The Beast’s identity

When Nameless asks for its name, the Beast calls itself Prisoner, though Nameless suspects the name may have been invented on the spot. Prisoner views conflict coldly and rationally, describing violence as the most primitive way of resolving contradictions. It accepts that one of them must ultimately fail, without showing hostility or regret.

Battle development

Prisoner allows Nameless to attack first, explaining that it specializes in defense and counterattacks. Nameless begins cautiously with laser beams. Prisoner reproduces the same attack, revealing that its ability is not simple copying but a form of rapid learning. It can analyze an ability while it is being used and adapt it to suit itself.
The two then exchange increasingly powerful techniques:

• Laser beams
• Titan’s Hand
• Golden Scorching Sun
• Golden Thread Binding
• Golden Crow Divine Armor
• Marvelous Flying Pancake Formation
  Each technique is met with an almost equally powerful version from Prisoner. When their attacks create spatial cracks, both fighters enter them and move beyond the universe, where time and space are frozen. Nameless then releases seawater from the Nameless Sea, curious whether Prisoner can imitate something that is technically part of his body rather than a conventional technique. Prisoner hesitates briefly but creates its own vast seawater dragons, maintaining the stalemate.

Character development

• Nameless remains cautious and observant, testing Prisoner’s abilities instead of immediately using his strongest attacks. Although he finds Prisoner’s lack of emotion boring, he becomes increasingly interested in its unusual learning ability and treats the battle partly as an intellectual experiment.
• Prisoner is established as detached, disciplined, and impartial rather than malicious. It has no goodwill toward the world, but neither does it harbor hatred. Its behavior is governed entirely by necessity and its pursuit of wisdom. During the fight, it demonstrates extraordinary adaptability and combat analysis.

Themes

The chapter emphasizes discipline versus desire, suggesting that Prisoner suppresses emotion to pursue wisdom. It also explores conflict as inevitability, with both combatants recognizing that opposing sides cannot avoid a final victor and loser. Another major theme is learning versus imitation: Prisoner does not merely copy techniques mechanically but studies, modifies, and incorporates them into its own fighting style. Their evenly matched battle also highlights the tension between Nameless’s creativity and Prisoner’s adaptive rationality.

Character interactions

Nameless and Prisoner speak with mutual respect despite being enemies. Nameless admires Prisoner’s discipline and suggests they fight without regrets, while Prisoner responds with detached logic. Their exchanges are calm and almost courteous, creating a striking contrast with the increasingly destructive battle. The fight becomes less an expression of hatred than a contest of principles, observation, and adaptation.

Chapter Summary: “Mindheart Insufficient”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Nameless reveals that he deliberately displayed his abilities to test Prisoner’s capacity to learn them.
• He explains that he does not consider Prisoner a serious threat, judging their strength at only forty points—well below the level that would make him cautious.
• Prisoner unleashes countless Titan’s Hands, using their full strength to attack Nameless.
• Nameless appears to “reflect” the attack, sending the Titan’s Hands back at Prisoner and blasting them through the Void.
• Prisoner realizes that their Ultimate Comprehension cannot understand Nameless’s seawater technique or reflection ability.
• Nameless reveals that the reflection was actually an illusion created by Seven Dreams of Fleeting Life. Prisoner had unknowingly attacked themselves.
• Prisoner attempts to manipulate Nameless by mentioning another Deathspawn Beast who might be killing innocents, hoping to provoke Nameless into revealing an opening or allowing an escape.
• Nameless sees through the deception but shows Prisoner the other Deathspawn Beast anyway, trapping it in an illusion.
• He shoots Prisoner with the Mindheart Gun, but his hesitation prevents the first shot from killing them.
• Nameless admits that his Killing Intent Power is insufficient because he feels reluctant to kill Prisoner, despite recognizing them as an enemy.
• He fires again, then uses a golden flash to further weaken Prisoner. Before finishing them, he demands that Prisoner reveal the words written on their body and warns them not to lie.

Character Developments

• Nameless: Demonstrates overwhelming power, confidence, and strategic intelligence. He can manipulate Prisoner’s perceptions so completely that they mistake self-inflicted damage for reflected attacks. Despite his ruthless duty, he reveals an unexpected reluctance to kill Prisoner, showing that he retains compassion or emotional conflict.
• Prisoner: Recognizes the limits of their Ultimate Comprehension for the first time. Their confidence in understanding all abilities is shaken, forcing them to acknowledge that greater strength is necessary. Their curiosity and desire to survive become more apparent, and they begin to empathize with Faceless.
• Faceless and the other Deathspawn Beast: Faceless is indirectly contrasted with Prisoner as another curious Deathspawn Beast. The unseen third member is shown to be trapped and possibly dangerous, reinforcing the threat posed by their kind.

Significant Themes

• Limits of knowledge: Prisoner’s inability to comprehend Nameless’s techniques demonstrates that intelligence and understanding alone cannot overcome a vast difference in power.
• Perception versus reality: Nameless’s illusions blur the boundary between what truly happens and what Prisoner believes has happened.
• Strength and survival: Prisoner realizes that understanding the world is meaningless without enough power to survive within it.
• Duty versus compassion: Nameless struggles between his responsibility to avenge fallen soldiers and his reluctance to kill a confused, curious being.
• Curiosity and wisdom: Prisoner’s desire for answers drives their behavior, while Nameless suggests that wisdom has no fixed form and may be defined by the individual.

Character Interactions

• Nameless taunts and evaluates Prisoner, while Prisoner questions his judgment and motives.
• Prisoner tries to manipulate Nameless by invoking the threat of another Deathspawn Beast, but Nameless immediately recognizes the tactic.
• Nameless offers Prisoner insight into the other Deathspawn Beast, though the vision is another deceptive illusion.
• Before attempting to kill Prisoner, Nameless answers their philosophical question about wisdom, creating a brief moment of mutual understanding amid their conflict.

Chapter Summary: “Strength”

Key Plot Points and Events

• At Wenxin Estate, Nameless reflects on the reward from completing his mission involving Prisoner. Although he did not kill Prisoner, he used Nameless Name to control him and sent him to the First Legion to help resist the invading Deathspawn Beasts, which satisfied the system’s requirements.
• He possesses three points of Miracle Energy and decides to use them on his strongest ability, Seven Dreams of Fleeting Life.
• The first point greatly expands the ability’s range, transforming its seven Dreamscape layers into a domain that covers the entire Great Wilderness Special Zone. Anyone within the region is automatically affected, even if they have never encountered Nameless.
• The second point pushes the ability toward its ultimate form. Within the domain, Nameless gains powers including:
  • Virtual-to-physical conversion
  • Rule customization
  • Strength suppression
  • Energy extraction
    Enemies with weaker souls cannot defeat him within the domain, regardless of their other abilities.
• Nameless tests the ability by creating food from illusions, discovering that he can temporarily turn imaginary objects into reality. However, this consumes energy, and he realizes that producing and consuming food in this way merely converts energy back and forth.
• He investigates whether he can create Miracle Energy. He succeeds only in making Imitation Miracle Energy, which can enhance abilities but requires an enormous amount of energy—roughly the equivalent of ten suns for a single point—and is therefore inefficient.
• Nameless considers how to use the final genuine point of Miracle Energy. He assesses his growing combat strength, which has increased through accumulated skill points, attribute points, and improved control over Infinity’s Light-Element Energy.
• He recognizes that his main weakness is not insufficient power but inadequate precision. His overwhelming energy output is difficult to control finely, which could become dangerous against a skilled opponent such as Wang Zong.

Character Development

• Nameless demonstrates increasing confidence and curiosity about the limits of his abilities. He experiments with reality creation, energy replication, and the expanded effects of Seven Dreams of Fleeting Life.
• Despite possessing overwhelming strength, he shows self-awareness by identifying a technical weakness: his control over massive quantities of energy is still rough and imprecise.
• His combat style has evolved from limited energy release—compared to a faucet—to immense output comparable to a dam. However, he understands that raw force alone may not be enough against elite opponents.
• Prisoner is no longer treated solely as an enemy. Through Nameless Name, he has been turned into an unwilling or controlled asset supporting the First Legion.

Significant Themes

• Power versus control: The chapter emphasizes that possessing enormous energy is not the same as being able to manipulate it perfectly.
• Limits of imitation: Seven Dreams of Fleeting Life can reproduce many things, but it cannot create genuine Miracle Energy because Miracle Energy exists at a higher level.
• Reality and illusion: The ability’s transformation blurs the boundary between dreams and reality, allowing Nameless to create tangible objects and alter the rules within his domain.
• Strategic growth: Nameless begins to understand that future battles will require refinement and precision rather than simply greater destructive power.
• The cost of power: Even though Nameless has nearly limitless energy reserves, transforming illusions into reality remains energetically expensive and impractical.

Character Interactions

• Nameless interacts indirectly with Prisoner, controlling him through Nameless Name and dispatching him to aid the First Legion.
• He has no direct interaction with Wang Zong in the chapter, but Wang Zong serves as the example of a powerful opponent who could exploit Nameless’s lack of precision.
• Nameless’s primary “interaction” is with the system and his own abilities, testing how Miracle Energy changes Seven Dreams of Fleeting Life and how far its domain-based powers can extend.

Chapter Summary

Key Plot Points and Events

• Nameless reflects on the difficulty of perfectly controlling immense power. As strength increases, even highly skilled cultivators cannot prevent energy from leaking out during battle, which is why powerful fighters such as Chen Taibai and Jing Rong must duel on uninhabited planets.
• He spends his final bit of Miracle Energy enhancing the Circulating Heart Sutra, an ability that improves energy control. The upgrade makes the energy within his body completely still and silent, allowing him to manipulate enormous amounts of power with unprecedented precision and without producing detectable fluctuations.
• Testing the ability, Nameless forms and reshapes a powerful energy glove effortlessly. He realizes that his usable strength has increased and celebrates by hosting a banquet for his friends.
• The following day, Lin Renmei reminds him of a beast-hide scroll she found in the Lost Door. The scroll, left by the Dark Gate Dragon Dark Heaven, contains a secret-realm incantation.
• Fifteen years earlier, Lin had given the scroll to the curse scholar Alman Seti for deciphering. Alman has now succeeded: the incantation can be branded onto a door, converting the secret realm’s portal from one-way to two-way. This means Nameless and Lin can enter and return from Dark Heaven’s secret realm.
• Because the portal requires tremendous energy, Nameless and Lin must activate it together. Nameless eagerly agrees to leave immediately, and Big Yellow insists on accompanying them.
• The group travels to Knowledge Is Poison Street in Great Wilderness City, a district where scholars and cultivators safely conduct dangerous experiments involving forbidden spells, curses, and black magic.
• They arrive at Alman Seti’s shop, but he does not answer the door. Lin becomes annoyed, while Nameless uses his authority to inspect the shop and realizes Alman is once again engaging in extremely dangerous research. The chapter ends with Nameless remarking that Alman is “courting death.”

Character Developments

• Nameless: Gains a major improvement in energy control, increasing both his effective strength and confidence. His calm reaction to handling overwhelming power shows his growing mastery. He is also curious and decisive, immediately agreeing to investigate Dark Heaven’s secret realm.
• Lin Renmei: Demonstrates patience and foresight by preserving the scroll and arranging for it to be deciphered over many years. She remains composed and practical, balancing Nameless’s impulsiveness.
• Big Yellow: Has become more independent and influential through business dealings, but still enjoys following Nameless on adventures. Its insistence on joining highlights its loyalty and restlessness.
• Alman Seti: Is established as an eccentric and reckless scholar. His experiments have already destroyed his lower body, yet he continues pursuing dangerous research without restraint.

Significant Themes

• Power and control: Greater strength creates greater difficulty in containing one’s own abilities. True mastery is not merely possessing power but controlling it precisely.
• Dangerous knowledge and experimentation: Knowledge Is Poison Street represents a place where dangerous research is tolerated because it can benefit the wider cultivation world.
• Curiosity versus recklessness: Nameless’s boldness leads him toward discovery, while Alman’s obsessive experimentation borders on self-destruction.
• Exploration of the unknown: The newly accessible secret realm of Dark Heaven introduces a major future mystery and adventure.
• Freedom within limits: The researchers are allowed to pursue forbidden studies as long as they do not violate the law, suggesting a society that accepts extreme behavior when properly contained.

Character Interactions

• Nameless and Lin Renmei discuss the scroll and coordinate their roles in opening the secret realm, with Lin providing the information and Nameless enthusiastically pushing to act immediately.
• Big Yellow interrupts to ensure it will not be left behind, reinforcing its close bond with Nameless.
• Nameless and Lin observe the dangerous researchers on Knowledge Is Poison Street, revealing their differing attitudes: Nameless is amused and critical, while Lin views the experiments pragmatically.
• At Alman Seti’s shop, Lin’s irritation contrasts with Nameless’s ability to investigate the situation directly. His final comment suggests that Alman’s latest experiment may have placed him in serious danger.

Chapter Summary: Spell Gate

1. Key Plot Points and Events

• A bronze-colored gate in Alman-Certi’s shop has activated prematurely, creating a dark-red vortex that sucks objects toward it and makes them vanish.
• Nameless suspects Alman-Certi attempted to create the portal before it was ready, causing the spell scholar to be pulled into the gate. Alman-Certi may now be trapped in another realm, dimension, or world.
• Nameless enters the shop with Lin Renmei and Big Yellow. Big Yellow is nearly dragged into the vortex, but Nameless saves him and shields both companions from the suction.
• Nameless observes that the gate continues functioning even after he cuts off its access to energy from the Great Wilderness Special Zone. This suggests that the gate is obtaining energy from another source, possibly the realm on its opposite side.
• Nameless summons Aries Palace, who brings three renowned spell scholars—Yang Kaitai, Ansachi, and An Weier—to investigate.
• The scholars determine that the gate is not simply a portal. It is a spell artifact capable of absorbing matter from both sides, converting it into spells, and then ejecting or recreating it.
• An Weier demonstrates this ability by activating one of the gate’s written spells and producing a treasure chest.
• The scholars conclude that living beings cannot be converted into spells, meaning Alman-Certi was probably transported to the other side rather than transformed or destroyed.
• Ansachi offers the elves’ treasures in exchange for a century of research access to the gate, but Nameless rejects the proposal because the immediate problems remain unresolved.
• The scholars cannot determine how to install an off-switch or control the gate’s suction range.
• Lin Renmei suggests retrieving Alman-Certi, but Big Yellow warns that the other side could be extremely dangerous. Alman-Certi’s failure to return suggests something is wrong, leaving the chapter on a note of uncertainty.

2. Character Developments

• Nameless remains calm, observant, and pragmatic. He saves Big Yellow effortlessly, studies the gate instead of acting recklessly, and focuses on controlling or neutralizing the artifact before investigating further.
• Lin Renmei shows courage and initiative by entering the dangerous shop and proposing that they rescue Alman-Certi. However, she is also frustrated by Nameless’s deliberately casual attitude.
• Big Yellow continues to provide comic relief through his clumsiness and lack of progress, but he also displays caution and sensible judgment by questioning whether Alman-Certi should be pursued immediately.
• Alman-Certi is revealed to have caused the crisis through impatience or overconfidence. His disappearance becomes the central mystery and potential rescue objective.
• An Weier distinguishes herself from the other scholars through her practical intelligence and awareness of Nameless’s mood. She explains the gate clearly and demonstrates its function.
• Yang Kaitai and Ansachi are portrayed as enthusiastic scholars more interested in the gate’s remarkable properties than in solving the immediate danger. Ansachi’s offer also reveals the immense value the elves place on the artifact.

3. Significant Themes

• The danger of uncontrolled knowledge and ambition: Alman-Certi’s attempt to create the gate prematurely causes a catastrophic accident, suggesting that powerful discoveries can become dangerous when pursued recklessly.
• Curiosity versus caution: The scholars are fascinated by the gate despite its lethal instability, while Big Yellow and Nameless emphasize the risks of approaching or entering it.
• The limits of expertise: Even famous spell scholars cannot control or modify the artifact, highlighting how far beyond ordinary spellcraft the gate may be.
• Transformation and the nature of magic: The gate’s ability to convert matter into spells blurs the distinction between physical objects and magical information.
• Uncertainty and hidden realms: The gate’s unknown destination creates suspense and raises the possibility of danger, imprisonment, or access to an entirely unfamiliar world.

4. Character Interactions

• Nameless teases Big Yellow about his weight and lack of improvement, then protects him from the vortex.
• Lin Renmei questions Nameless’s apparent fascination with the gate and challenges his lack of immediate action.
• Nameless calls upon Aries Palace for expert assistance, establishing his reliance on trusted allies when specialized knowledge is required.
• The three scholars examine the gate together, with Yang Kaitai and Ansachi expressing awe while An Weier provides the useful explanation.
• An Weier’s demonstration convinces Nameless and Big Yellow that the gate transforms matter into spells.
• Ansachi attempts to negotiate with Nameless for research access, but Nameless refuses to be distracted from the unresolved danger.
• Lin Renmei advocates rescuing Alman-Certi, while Big Yellow urges caution, creating tension between immediate action and risk assessment.

Chapter Summary: “Huge Time Difference”

Key Plot Points and Events

• Because the portal transforms inanimate objects into spells bound to its frame, the All-Heavens Council cannot send robots or standard scouting tools through it. Alman-Serti’s failure to return raises fears that the realm beyond may be fatal.
• Aries Palace suggests using death-row prisoners as scouts, but Nameless rejects this as premature. Instead, he asks Lin Renmei to bring a rabbit for testing.
• Nameless throws the rabbit through the portal. About ten minutes later, numerous rabbits emerge, followed by a giant snake. The rabbits are ordinary, and the python possesses no Supernatural Energy.
• Nameless realizes that the rabbits are descendants of the original rabbit, which had apparently been pregnant when sent through. This proves that time flows far faster on the other side—likely hundreds of times faster.
• The group debates whether the phenomenon could be an illusion or a trap. Nameless and Aries Palace conclude from examining the animals that the other side appears safe for ordinary life.
• Nameless, Aries Palace, Big Yellow, and Yang Kaitai enter the portal. Lin Renmei, An Weier, and Ansachi remain behind to guard it and preserve a route of retreat.
• The travelers experience intense spatial and temporal distortion before arriving in a massive underground cavern filled with interconnected passages and frightened rabbits.
• Nameless tests the portal from the other side by throwing in a dagger. The portal absorbs it, shifting the spells on its frame and adding another segment, confirming that the portal’s magical structure changes when it consumes matter.

Character Developments and Interactions

• Nameless demonstrates caution, scientific reasoning, and leadership. He avoids sacrificing prisoners, uses animals to gather information, interprets the rabbits’ rapid reproduction, and leads the first exploratory group.
• Aries Palace offers a ruthless practical solution involving death-row prisoners, then volunteers to investigate the realm himself. His analysis of the rabbits’ brains helps confirm that the portal is not immediately dangerous.
• Yang Kaitai initially objects to using prisoners because of his scholarly and relatively sheltered background. Though wary of An Weier’s suggestion that the portal may be a trap, he ultimately volunteers to accompany Nameless.
• An Weier challenges Yang Kaitai repeatedly and remains skeptical of the portal’s apparent safety, warning that a powerful being could be creating an illusion to lure them in. She chooses to stay behind rather than take unnecessary risks.
• Lin Renmei assists Nameless without hesitation and understands why he wants her guarding the portal. Her presence also prevents An Weier and Ansachi from acting against Nameless’s interests.
• Ansachi supports using prisoners only if necessary and recognizes that Nameless’s judgment is decisive. He stays behind with Lin Renmei and An Weier.
• Big Yellow provides comic relief through his interest in eating the rabbits, but he also quickly recognizes that the situation is safe enough to investigate and joins the expedition.

Significant Themes

• Caution versus expediency: The debate over using death-row prisoners contrasts Aries Palace’s practicality with Yang Kaitai’s moral hesitation and Nameless’s preference for less destructive testing.
• Scientific investigation and deduction: The characters rely on controlled experiments and observation to understand the portal rather than entering blindly.
• The uncertainty of appearances: Even apparently harmless evidence may be an illusion or trap, as An Weier points out.
• Time and scale: The portal connects realms with radically different time flows, creating an environment where generations can pass in minutes on the travelers’ side.
• Trust and strategic responsibility: The group divides roles carefully, ensuring that trusted individuals guard the portal while others explore.

Character Interactions

• Aries Palace and An Weier pressure Yang Kaitai by questioning his reluctance to risk others while avoiding danger himself.
• Nameless calms the group’s fears by replacing the idea of human sacrifices with an animal experiment.
• Ansachi immediately understands Nameless’s deduction about the rabbit descendants and the time differential.
• An Weier’s warning about a possible illusion silences Yang Kaitai and reinforces the group’s uncertainty.
• Nameless and Lin Renmei establish a practical division of responsibility: the expedition team investigates while Lin Renmei, An Weier, and Ansachi secure the portal.
• The chapter ends with Nameless actively testing the portal’s magical behavior, suggesting that understanding and controlling the portal may be as important as exploring the realm beyond it.

Chapter Summary: Dark Heaven’s Soul Fragment

Key Plot Points and Events

• Yang Kaitai is fascinated by the teleportation gate, recognizing it as an extraordinary magical artifact. Nameless leaves him with Big Yellow to study and protect it while he and Aries Palace investigate the surrounding tunnels.
• Nameless and Aries discover that the rabbit-hole environment is artificial. The dirt, stones, and sand are all identical copies, proving that the entire underground structure was created through spells.
• They conclude that Alman-Serti constructed the enormous rabbit-hole system after being teleported there. Because time passes differently between the location and Great Wilderness City, Alman-Serti may have spent years studying spells and altering the area.
• A blocked passage appears to be the intended route, but Nameless realizes that the traps have already been triggered by rabbits that wandered through the tunnels. He destroys the obstruction, revealing a massive underground room surrounding the teleportation gate.
• The room is identified as a former secret base belonging to Dark Gate Dragon, Dark Heaven. Nameless infers that Dark Heaven hid his treasures there and left behind the teleportation spells so he could return after obtaining a new body.
• Alman-Serti likely discovered the treasure trove and attempted to shut down the teleportation gate so he could keep the wealth for himself. When he failed, he apparently took advantage of the vast time difference to pursue another plan.
• While tracking Alman-Serti’s movements through the dusty room, Nameless and Aries are attacked by a strange winged creature. Aries quickly shoots it down.
• Nameless identifies the creature as a fragment formed from Dark Heaven’s Mental Strength rather than Dark Heaven himself. They jokingly name it the “Flying Bat Pig.”
• The creature’s existence raises a mystery: it attacked Nameless and Aries but apparently did not attack Alman-Serti, suggesting a possible connection between Alman-Serti and Dark Heaven.

Character Developments

• Nameless continues to demonstrate sharp observation and strategic thinking. He recognizes the artificial nature of the tunnels, understands how the rabbits neutralized the traps, and reconstructs Dark Heaven and Alman-Serti’s likely plans.
• Nameless also reveals that he has deliberately kept Dark Heaven alive because doing so may provide greater benefits than killing him immediately.
• Aries Palace acts as Nameless’s investigative partner. He analyzes the magical environment, reacts quickly in battle, and displays a dry sense of humor by naming the strange monster.
• Alman-Serti is portrayed as opportunistic and possibly greedy. After discovering Dark Heaven’s hidden wealth, he appears to have tried to claim it for himself and then spent an unknown number of years developing a new scheme.
• Dark Heaven remains dangerous even in a diminished state. Although his soul is no longer directly present, traces of his Mental Strength have manifested as a bizarre monster.
• Yang Kaitai remains focused on magical scholarship, while Big Yellow is assigned to protect him and help study the teleportation gate.

Significant Themes

• The power and danger of magic: The teleportation gate and the artificial cave demonstrate the incredible abilities of spell scholars, while also showing how magical artifacts can create dangerous and complicated consequences.
• Time and opportunity: The different flow of time allows Alman-Serti to spend centuries—or at least an unknown length of time—planning and experimenting, turning the teleportation accident into a long-term advantage.
• Greed and hidden motives: Dark Heaven’s treasure and Alman-Serti’s apparent attempt to seize it highlight how characters’ ambitions drive the conflict.
• Residual identity and survival: Dark Heaven’s Mental Strength survives in monstrous form, suggesting that a person’s power or will can remain even after the original soul has been damaged or defeated.
• Deception and artificiality: The fake rabbit-hole system was built to mislead intruders, emphasizing the difficulty of distinguishing natural reality from magical construction.

Important Character Interactions

• Nameless instructs Big Yellow to remain with Yang Kaitai, combining protection with magical research.
• Nameless and Aries work together to investigate the tunnels, independently noticing that the environment is artificially constructed before identifying Alman-Serti as its creator.
• Their discussion of Dark Heaven’s secret base allows them to reconstruct the history of the teleportation gate and Alman-Serti’s actions.
• Aries saves them from the ambush by instantly shooting down the Flying Bat Pig.
• Nameless explains the creature’s connection to Dark Heaven, while Aries questions why it attacked them instead of Alman-Serti. This closes the chapter with suspicion that Alman-Serti may have some unexplained relationship with Dark Heaven.

Chapter Summary: “Crazy”

Plot Points and Events

• Nameless and Aries Palace leave the rabbit-hole area and follow the straightforward path into Dark Heaven’s secret base.
• The base appears both elegant and unfinished, with dusty corridors, a lake beneath a false sky, and a stone statue of the Dark Gate Dragon surrounded by treasure.
• They reach the top floor, where they find Arman Seti writing in a room. He reveals that he originally intended to surprise Lin Renmei but became trapped in Dark Heaven after discovering the enormous treasure hoard.
• Arman initially resisted stealing, but after waiting for Nameless and Lin Renmei for a hundred years, greed overcame him. He consumed powerful medicines, stole more treasures, and concealed the teleportation gate.
• Over the centuries, he planted increasingly dangerous spells and grew stronger through the stolen resources. Eventually, he began eagerly anticipating a confrontation with Nameless, believing he had become powerful enough to defeat him.
• Arman explains that the rabbit’s arrival and the python he sent after it ultimately caused the long-awaited visitors to reach the secret base.
• Nameless identifies Arman as insane, while Aries Palace acknowledges that he is also extremely powerful. Aries Palace volunteers to test Arman’s strength and charges at him.

Character Development

• Nameless remains calm, observant, and morally firm. He refuses to accept Arman’s justification that the treasures were abandoned property and emphasizes the betrayal of customers’ trust.
• Aries Palace shows empathy toward Arman’s initial struggle with greed but does not excuse his actions. He also demonstrates confidence and willingness to confront Arman directly.
• Arman Seti is revealed as a deeply unstable man whose guilt, greed, fear, and self-delusion have developed into madness. His years of stealing and preparation have nevertheless made him exceptionally powerful.

Significant Themes

• Greed and moral corruption: Arman’s inability to resist wealth gradually destroys his principles.
• Responsibility and betrayal: His guests trusted him, but he stole from them and attempted to justify the theft through legalistic reasoning.
• Madness born from guilt and fear: Arman’s long isolation and fear of discovery distort his thinking until he begins to desire the confrontation he once dreaded.
• Power and self-delusion: Access to Dark Heaven’s resources convinces Arman that strength can erase his wrongdoing and make him superior to Nameless.

Character Interactions

• Nameless and Aries Palace speculate about Arman’s possible connection to Dark Heaven while exploring the base.
• Aries Palace responds sympathetically to Arman’s struggle, whereas Nameless challenges his excuses and insists that the treasures belong to the customers.
• Arman shifts from pleading for understanding to openly challenging Nameless, turning the conversation into a confrontation.
• The chapter ends as Aries Palace begins the battle, with Nameless agreeing to support him and observe Arman’s true strength.
