• Two years later, envoys from the Royal Capital arrived in Niro City to honor their agreement and invite Xiluo to perform Dragon Transformation on the king.
• Bosha Miste stopped the envoys, questioned their credentials, and demanded proof of their sincerity, so their leader tossed him three Gold Coins.

Two years after his previous visit, the Royal Capital’s envoy reached Niro City and found it far more prosperous and powerful than he remembered. After he and his knights disparaged the city and clashed with its subjects and patrols, they were captured, released by Lord Bosha, and finally brought before Xiluo Utrasis.

• Xiluo praised Allen's improved frost control, collected the King's Ring, and learned that Abyssal Hell had remained quiet.
• In the King's Ring Space, Xiluo met No. 5 and No. 3, then confronted No. 4 about selling his information to a Titan.

• Xiluo interrupted the emissary’s accusation, denied that Abel was the Blue Dragon responsible, and dismissed the Ulaluo witnesses as unreliable.
• When a noble demanded to confront Abel, Xiluo struck him with a Psionic Shock and ordered the delegation out of Gerlo.

• Xiluo flew to the Animal Pen, where Abel complained about his rough landing before recognizing him and offering him the organs of Hill Giants he had hunted.

Afterward, the wyrmling asked for a Blue Dragon awakening method, and No. 4 offered the Giant Blue Dragon and Thunderclap Dragon as options.

• Xiluo confronted the Blue Dragon Wyrmling over raiding caravans, killing people, and extorting nobles, then blamed him for attracting Ularuo's attention.
• Xiluo trapped the Blue Dragon Wyrmling in an illusion where he was mocked for impotence and repeatedly lost all the money he earned.

• The Blue Dragon Wyrmling asked Xiluo to get him an awakening method for a cheap, powerful Blue Dragon species.
• No. 4 offered the Giant Blue Dragon and Thunderclap Dragon, and Xiluo recalled their traits as mutated dragon species.

Xiluo bought the Giant Blue Dragon and Thunderclap Dragon awakening methods, then punished Koraman and Alicia with illusions for raiding merchant ships against his orders. After collecting and eating the Giants’ organs gathered by his dragons, Xiluo’s stats rose again, while Nina Bru remained away in the Molten Fire Mountains.
