Chapter Begins:

Kai had been expecting these Abilities to rise to Master level for long.

With only three hours of Identity Period every 3 or 4 days, and with so much to do and plan and learn, Kai had not exactly gotten much hands-on experience in Potioneering.

However, Darcie had practiced the art of potioneering extensively. Then there were Kai's experiments on Island X.

The accumulated experience was bound to fruit results.

So, burying the smile on his face, he brought his attention to the red-gold liquid.

Only then did he notice the gazes of all, waiting for his confirmation. Red Sun's eyes almost threatened to pop out.

Kai shook his head.

"I don't think it's Philosopher's Stone," he told them, holding his chin. "For one, it is not a stone. For another, the process itself was just too easy, even if we ignore the rarity of the materials involved. If Ekrizdis had known Philosopher's Stone's recipe, it wouldn't have been so easy to seal him, no?"

Meg nodded. "Reasonable."

Rintaro blushed and then coughed. "I, of course, knew it."

Moraine stepped forward and bent, her breasts almost rubbing against the hot brim of the cauldron.

"It does appear similar to a Philosopher's Stone, though," she remarked. "Maybe…"

Kai nodded.

"Ekrizdis must have been trying to create Philosopher's Stone, perhaps," he guessed. "Somehow he learned a few ingredients involved in the process and began researching them. He didn't get the desired product, but he did stumble upon… this — The Dark Scroll."

Kai had no way of being sure of this.

Not unless he asked it from the Inferi Horcrux himself.

"It doesn't matter," he said, collecting the potion-based Artifact in a vial. "I can't wait any longer. It's time."

"We are going now…" Cersei asked but didn't finish the question.

Kai ignored the frown on Cersei's face and looked at Spawn.

Another Tournament of Worth had already begun, the theme being — Dominance.

Of course, Spawn would be participating in it, aiming to reach the top like the other White Serpent Pirates. Anything else and…

Kai left that unsaid. "Good luck."

Spawn matched his gaze and nodded.

An enormous blue vortex materialized at the top of a mountain.

Kai, Meg, Red Sun, Moraine, and Cersei jumped into the Switched World and the vortex behind them disappeared.

"Verse Fusion…" Meg and Red Sun both mumbled together.

The daughter of Iron Man, Moraine, turned back and looked at the enormous full moon rising above the horizon.

3 years, 8 months, 9 days… Kai thought, recalling the last time when he was here. But only 138 days have gone by in the Demon Slayer World.

At 22, Kai had almost hit the limit of his height, standing tall at 6 ft and 2 inches.

His white hair was freshly cut to shoulder length and his reptilian, hazel eyes seemed to fluctuate in and out of reality, reflecting the reddish-silvery moonlight.

He was wearing a white doublet over white pants, with white shoes devoid of any dirt.

"Let's do it," he said. "Fan out and create a parameter. No matter who comes… Kill."

"Yes, your majesty." All four bowed and disappeared, deeply aware of the seriousness of the situation and the coming ordeal.

With a wave of his hand, Kai cleared the moonlit ground and sat down on the ground.

With another wave of the hand, a flower appeared in his hands, glowing more beautiful than all flowers he had ever laid his eyes upon.

The Blue Spider Lily!

…

Kai had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

When he had first seen its Stats, he didn't know he would learn an absurd Mindscape like Ad Infinitum ever.

However, even then Kai knew why he had chosen Blue Spider Lily; why he had liked it so much.

Sure, the Standalone Title was well and good; much, much better than anything Kai currently possessed.

Still, what truly made Blue Spider Lily special—for him—was the Ability — Consciousness Manipulation.

It was especially so for someone like Kai who was already used to carrying out many tasks within his mind.

He had given a rudimentary shape to his Mindscape in the form of a yellow sea even before hearing Samurai Jack.

He had survived against the combined Legilimency of Death Eaters' Generals, the mental struggle reaching over a hundred times than a normal attack.

What could he accomplish, if he had an Ability to back him up in all this?

The very thought made him smile, his eyes beaming in anticipation of what was about to happen.

Then, with this demonic gleam in his eyes, Kai put the Blue Spider Lily in his mouth, chewed, and gulped it down.

The change was—instantaneous.

A beastly snarl escaped Kai's throat as his entire body convulsed.

Joints snapped and popped, bones broke down into a powder, and his muscles screamed, getting ripped apart.

Every orifice in his body began bleeding.

Kai screamed.

Cersei and Meg's heads snapped back, their feet shifting on earth in concern.

Moraine's breasts heaved up and down as she gawked at the sight, her ears buzzing because of Kai's screams.

Red Sun was looking at Moraine…

Then something happened that made the 10th-floor Contestant jump back to his feet, stunned.

Before the four slaves could even process what they were seeing... Kai's entire body broke apart.

Skin, organs, flesh, and bones melted, becoming a puddle of bloody goo.

...

A growl escaped Cersei's throat, dense shadowy vapors bursting out of her body like lava from a volcano.

Meg had frozen at her place, her face pale, becoming paler and whiter by fractions of a second.

The bloody puddle stilled, all motions arrested, all hopes lost.

...

Then it happened.

Boooooooooommmmmmmmm!!!

A majestic wave of formless power hit Meg and Cersei and sent them flying.

The bloody goo, running into the crevices of the rocky mountain, pulsed.

All the liquid that had run down returned.

Tendrils rose from it, black and hideous.

With another surge of power, the bloody goo lifted in the air as if thrown into a vacuum. It condensed and began taking a crude humanoid shape.

Now two inches taller, and naked, Kai materialized as if jumped out of another dimension.

His flesh wriggled under his skin, like millions of worms crawling up and down. His bones felt otherworldly, strong, and yet flexible.

Then there was the feeling; the stupendous, unbelievable feeling.

A feeling that told him he could control his flesh and bones, just like he could control his hands, with only one thought.

Yes.

Now he was the Ultimate Faceless.

Yes.

Now he was the Ultimate Demon.

And, yes.

Now his reign began; here, in the Verse Fusion Random World.
