Chapter Summaries

As Morgan prepared to transfer Britain using the Clan Bells and the former Fantasy Tree’s husk, Bai Mo descended into the Great Hollow to investigate why Cernunnos had grown enraged. He sensed a red-haired person rotting inside the god, while Cernunnos’s cries of pain continued.

• Morgan used Water Mirror to move Chaldea’s members into position and prepared Camelot to depart with the Clan Bells.
• Morgan gave Bai Mo a mirror pendant, and he dropped toward Cernunnos while the Holy Lances’ formation began to weaken.
• Bai Mo recalled that the fairies’ neglect of forging the holy sword had led to Sefar destroying the planet, after which the fairies murdered Cernunnos and made his body into the first continent.
• Bai Mo used the Myoken Divine Wheel to shield himself from curses and landed on Cernunnos’s head.
• Bai Mo sensed Cernunnos’s inner world and saw an indistinct red-haired person whose limbs were rotting away.

Boggart and Habetrot watched a vast Mors army approach Camelot as fairies turned against Morgan and Muryan searched the queen’s library for answers. Bai Mo discovered that Cernunnos’s curse had spread across nearly the entire Northern Hemisphere, leaving Chaldea uncertain whether it could be removed without catastrophic consequences.

• Boggart admitted he had foreseen himself becoming a Mors but resolved to survive, while Habetrot urged him to stop complaining as they surveyed the approaching Calamities.
• A mass of insects appeared above Boggart and Habetrot as other insects began corroding the Holy Lances’ barriers at the Great Hollow.
• Fairies charged Morgan’s tower over her refusal to let them enter Pan-Human History, then rushed to the library to seek Muryan’s answers.
• Muryan read Fairy Britain’s founding history and found a battered biography written by Tonelico.
• Bai Mo sensed that Cernunnos’s curse had spread beyond Britain through the Northern Hemisphere, and Dr. Roman warned that removing the fantasies could wipe out that region.
• Bai Mo contacted Cernunnos with his Magnetic Field Power, and scarlet spheres appeared around him and stared at him.

Bai Mo and Morgan tried to penetrate Cernunnos's corpse and withdraw the curses spreading through Britain, with Morgan using her Holy Lance to break into his skull. Bai Mo reached Cernunnos's deepest recesses and sensed his remorse and anger, along with a curse created by Beryl.

• Morgan concluded that Cernunnos's curses could threaten Pan-Human History and considered using the Holy Sword of the Planet to destroy them.
• Bai Mo cut into Cernunnos's skull with Magnetic Field Heavenly Blades, but endless Curse Layers and regeneration resisted him.
• Morgan struck Cernunnos with four blasts from her Holy Lance, opening his skull so Bai Mo could enter.
• Bai Mo used the Blades of Hell to slow Cernunnos's regeneration and the Myoken Divine Wheel to shield himself from the curses.
• Bai Mo reached deep inside Cernunnos and sensed remorse and anger, then recognized a curse Beryl had created in Gloucester.

Kama explained that Beryl altered Cernunnos’s curse so it could infect humans, prompting the god to unleash it completely to ensure no human-affecting curse escaped. Bai Mo and Morgan sought a way to stop Cernunnos, but his muddled mind and Beryl’s death left them with few options.

• Bai Mo asked Kama about Cernunnos’s curses, and she explained that gods protect humanity as a whole, even if they disregard individual lives.
• Kama revealed that Beryl had modified Cernunnos’s curse, which was meant to punish fairies, so it could turn humans into Mors as well.
• Morgan proposed sending Mash back in time to kill Beryl, but Caster warned her that time travel could cause further problems.
• Kama said Beryl had already died after charging into Mash’s shield, and Morgan vowed to find his soul.
• Bai Mo tried to communicate with Cernunnos, but the god’s mind was muddled after tens of thousands of years of torment.

Morgan defended Camelot from the Calamity of the Beast by turning the attacking black dogs into a source of magical energy. Elsewhere, Lancelot abandoned Aurora, while Woodwose found her as he fled the battle.

• Morgan faced the largest Calamity of the Beast and vowed to stop Britain’s destructive will from taking her kingdom.
• Lancelot left Aurora in the forest after their encounter, and Aurora decided to make for Camelot to reach Pan-Human History.
• Melusine fought the Mors and the Calamity of the Beast on the outskirts, mistaking a call for help as Bai Mo needing her.
• Woodwose escaped the black dogs while protecting the Clan Bell, stopped to drink, and encountered Aurora in the water, who asked him for help.

Bai Mo fought his way into Cernunnos and found a strange mass of flesh connected to its nerves. Touching it drew him into an illusion, where he encountered a white figure who asked whether he had watched Mery’s virtual streams.

• Cernunnos’s rotting flesh and corrosive attacks failed to stop Bai Mo as he used Shura Bewildering Steps and the Blade of Hell to reach its depths.
• Bai Mo froze Cernunnos’s flesh with Imperial Extremity Shocks the World and discovered a mangled, woman-shaped mass connected to the creature by nerves.

• Bai Mo recognized the illusion as resembling the one Mery had used in Uruk and wondered whether Mery was present.
• A tall white figure waved to Bai Mo and asked whether he had watched its virtual streams.

Merlin gathered Bai Mo, Morgan, Caster, Mash, and Ritsuka inside an illusion to reveal the Fairy of Paradise’s mission to reforge the Holy Sword of the Planet. Bai Mo immediately questioned the price of the mission, leaving Merlin’s proposal uncertain.

• Merlin revealed that the mission was to reforge the Holy Sword of the Planet, and Bai Mo demanded to know its price.

Merlin revealed that forging the Holy Sword of the Planet required a Fairy of Paradise’s body and memories, and Morgan proposed sacrificing herself while using her bond with Bai Mo to return as a Heroic Spirit. Bai Mo refused and entered Cernunnos’s curses, determined to save Morgan and Britain without letting her lose anything more.

• Merlin explained that the Fairy of Paradise’s true mission was to become the material for the Holy Sword of the Planet, using her body and completed pilgrimage memories.
• Bai Mo rejected the sacrifice and left Avalon with Morgan, who followed him into its dark passage.
• Morgan told Bai Mo that she and Caster could provide the body and memories needed to forge the sword, then asked him to marry her so their bond could let him summon her again.
• Bai Mo refused Morgan’s plan, saying he had come to stop her from losing anything more, and entered Cernunnos’s curses to save her and Britain.
• Merlin watched Morgan’s reaction, then left the garden and led everyone out of Avalon toward the outside world.

Bai Mo tried to reclaim Cernunnos by absorbing its accumulated curses, but discovered a lethal foreign poison mixed in with them. As his body began to rot, he asked Morgan and the others for information about the holy sword, leaving Morgan to prepare to rescue him if his plan failed.

• Morgan sent Bai Mo everything she knew and prepared a protective barrier, vowing not to let him die.

Bai Mo gathered the lethal poison within Cernunnos's remains and used Magnetic Field Rotation to begin forging the Holy Sword of the Planet through his own body. After Merlin sent him word that he needed a prototype, Bai Mo combined the Spiral Sword with the Sword of Victory, leaving a golden hilt emerging from his body.

• Bai Mo guessed that the original fairies had brought the Holy Sword's materials into the outside world and that the poisoned wine might have been made from them.
• Bai Mo drew the lethal poison from Cernunnos's remains into his body and used Ryougi Lataib to contain it.
• Bai Mo unleashed 950,000-horsepower Magnetic Field Rotation, then searched Mad Giant Shark for traces of how Giant Shark had forged it with his body.
• Morgan lost track of Bai Mo, but Merlin stopped her from transferring him and said he had succeeded; Merlin then sent him a message with a raven made of Runes.
• Bai Mo put the Spiral Sword into his body, then added the Sword of Victory when the Spiral Sword fragments could not fuse, and a golden hilt emerged from him.

Bai Mo forged the Holy Sword of the Planet and used it to burn away the roots of curses across Britain. After Morgan brought him back and restored his strength, Cernunnos emerged from the Great Hollow and approached the barrier.

• Bai Mo drew the Holy Sword from his body, and its radiance stirred the fairies across Britain.
• A message from Cernunnos's priestess led Bai Mo to declare that the fairies' sins would be reckoned with, then sweep the Holy Sword upward and burn the curse roots beneath Britain to ash.

• Cernunnos comforted Baobhan Sith, removed the curse from her soul, and declared that Britain’s fairies would be rejected by the Inner Sea of the Planet unless they repented.
• Bai Mo explained that Cernunnos’s priestess might have been Baobhan Sith, and urged her to live well despite the uncertainty.
• Baobhan Sith wept against Bai Mo as Chaldea’s Olga Marie demanded that Ritsuka kill every fairy in Britain.
• Bai Mo made clear that he intended to kill the fairies responsible, while Morgan would not allow them into the new world.
• Oberon watched the holy sword’s radiance fade and asked the muscular man beside him whether he still planned to act; the man chose to stay now that someone had cleaned up Britain.

Muryan sought Koyanskaya’s help as the fairies faced destruction, while Woodwose entered Camelot and left Aurora outside. Aurora rallied the stranded fairies to seize the city and grew more resentful of Melusine.

• Morgan told Caster to ring the Clan Bells and decided not to sacrifice Gareth for the missing Mirror Clan bell.
• Woodwose brought the fifth bell to Morgan, then left to fight the Calamity of the Beast.
