Sefar begins her attack and rampages across Earth, slaughtering many pantheons, scattering civilizations, and absorbing all she destroys to grow larger and more powerful. She is eventually defeated by the human wielder of the planet's ultimate defense, the holy sword later called Excalibur, but the damage done is irreversible; many gods lie dead and humanity has lost faith in them for succeeding where their deitites could not.

Chaldea detects the cause of the Human Order Incineration Incident as seven pockets of isolated space-time called Singularities existing in the past throughout human history causing massive time-space distortions which invalidate the Quantum Time Locks and reduce Proper Human History outside the Singularities to a chaotic mess of mere probabilities, requiring them to correct the situation by travelling into the Singularities and obtaining the Holy Grails that sustain their existence in a mission called the Grand Order. Chaldea learns of Goetia's true identity, foils his plan, and restores humanity, but it takes a whole year to do so, which shows up as a blank period in mankind's memory and threatens the secrecy of Magecraft. They also learn that humanity is destined to perish sometime after 2016, which is why Goetia waited 3,000 years to enact his plan. Following his defeat, Chaldea enacts the Remnant Order and defeats four remaining Demon God Pillars and the Subspecies Singularities they bring forth.

* The catastrophe Goetia foresaw arrives. An Alien God descends onto Earth, kills all of mankind and then wipes the surface of the planet entirely blank. The Alien God plans to replace Proper Human History with a timeline where the Age of Gods never ended by planting seven Fantasy Trees which sustain pruned timelines called Lostbelts.
