Hello.

Author here. Headed by a Snake has over 700 chapters written, containing over 800k words in total. You, friend-cultivator, have read equivalent to eight 100k-word physical s.

Hurray.

The following is a recap of general events in what is hopefully a simple format to reference.

...

Tycon, the current leader of the storied Adventuring Company, Sol Invictus, transmigrated to the Realm with little to no memories of his personal relationships.

He discovered he has a three-part quest, granted to him by his mother, Rylania, the Queen of Stone.

The quest entailed completing three favors:

One for the Magic Kingdom's Royal Lineage.

One for the Holy Country's Church of the Eternal Flame.

And finally, one for the Free Nation's Merchant King Ashlord.

In the Magic Kingdom, he recruited Barza Keith, the Lone Shadowdark. He forced Tarquin Wroe to form a magical pact with a goddess. Further, he began the martial training of Pale, son of the previous leader, Quay, to be an adventurer.

There was also a Titanblood named Dragan and a horse, but they are largely unimportant.

Tycon also entrusted two guild members with the care of his estate, a businesswoman named Sorina Capulet and a veteran mercenary, Seldin Korr.

Chancing upon one of the Realm's Hidden Sects, Sol Invictus rescued the Ivory Judge Sect's dying Guardian Beast and recruited two scions of their Guardian House-- notably the Martialist, Kimura Taree.

In the large city of Merylsward, Sol Invictus destroyed a corrupt Kingdom Duke, completing the first favor.

Unfortunately, during this time, Sol Invictus members Maximus of Ezyria and Kimura Tamaki were killed by a rogue power from the Plane of Fire.

With the threat of invasion by an otherworldly plane plausible, Tycon sought the assistance of Sol Invictus member Lucifer and had her personally report to the Gatekeepers.

He further ingratiated Invictus with the Kingdom by assisting the Royal Navy with recovering citizens from pirates. He established a professional relationship with Fleet Admiral Chantal De la Croix, a Contract Summoner who seeks revenge for her father's murder, and became an honorary Sea Wolf Marine Lieutenant under High-Captain Lang Hai.

Along the way, he adopted his daughter, a silver-scaled snake named Sasarame.

Tycon traveled to the Holy Country, obliterating a Gold-Rank guild that was targeting one of his allies.

He was given a quest by Archbishop Natalya Crucis to restore the noble name of Athena Vanzano. He also submitted his adopted daughter for training in the Holy Country's highest establishment of learning, the Basilica.

The Snake Cult attacked the Brazen Guard, inhibiting Athena's ability to rebuild her name and power.

Sol Invictus and their allies sacked the city of Caeruleum, completing Tycon's second quest to a degree beyond deniability.

Before Tycon could return to the Free Nation for his third and final quest, Troia, the High Oracle of the Holy Country, requested he return an Elven artifact to the Eastern States.

Barza Keith, the Lone Shadowdark, however, fell under the control of the artifact swords... which has led to current events.

Most recently, he's traveled with:

Krysaos, a human with an aquatic bloodline, and Captain of the ships, the Neptune's Revenge and the Sugar-Titted Siren II.

The wielder of the Elven Blades of the Forgotten King, the Lone Shadowdark-- who is referred to either as King or Sovereign;

Mina, the weapon spirit of Krysaos' sword, the Heart of the Ocean;

Ishmael, Tycon's ⌈Venomous Shadow⌋ who has either gained or has always had sentience;

Imperia, a selfish dark elf Princess from a fallen noble house.

...And an indeterminable number of  Coral Boys. By profession they are Sea Wolf Marines that should rightfully belong to the Kingdom's Royal Navy.

They have been... misplaced.

When the crew reaches the Eastern States' city of Whitehearth, they should meet up with Coraline Heartsong. The clever young elf is the romantic interest of the Lone Shadowdark and thus has a personal interest in breaking the swords' enchantments.

Granted, something will go wrong.

Something always goes wrong.

...

Tycon has been growing in strength dramatically as his memories have slowly returned.

Starting as an Iron-Rank, he grew in power when Shadow Snake Princess Ananta gifted him with her Shadow Essence.

His movement techniques, notably his ⌈Tumble⌋ and ⌈Shadowfang⌋ Skills increased in mastery as he trained with the Ivory Judge Sect.

As his various Skills evolved, he broke through to Gold-Rank after a fight with Avenger Justus of the Rhodok Guild.

Personally trained by Samurai Garock Heartrender, Tycon learned the curved blade of the Screaming Silence Sect, which heavily emphasized defensive techniques.

Though he still relies mostly on his mastery of White Raven swordsmanship for short blade and empty-handed techniques, he has utilized the curved blade techniques as a trump card against several combatants, including the monsters in the Halls of the Dead Snake and Zehr, the Snake God.

Besides his personal abilities, Tycon's bloodline grants him the ⌈Vexing Gaze⌋ instant-kill ability and immunity to poisons and petrification.

The Mark of Pride, inscribed upon him by Lucifer of Sol Invictus, makes him highly resistant to domination spells and effects.

He wields a magical short sword that can transform into a segmented blade whip and the highly venomous curved blade, the ⌈Sword of Venom⌋.

He wears a stylish dark cloak with a peaked hood, magical boots that enhance his speed, an amulet that protects him from magical divination and analysis spells, and a spatial ring that can magically store items.

He also keeps a small number of bolts, smeared with a waxy paralyzing poison, that he fires from a compact hand-crossbow.

Tycon also had a very nice pocket watch that he was very proud of. However, to gain the opportunity to murder a young girl, he gifted the watch to the child's brother.

All combined, Tycondrius of Charm is confident in challenging most other Gold-Rank existences.

He can easily defeat the one-armed Weaponmaster, Bannok of Kasydon. He can safely subdue either the Shadow Snake Priness Ananta and Sea Serpent Princess Iyuri... as well as Archbishop Natalya Crucis, provided she does not utilize Divine Armor Starfury.

Tycon is also confident of fighting Holy Lancer Athanasius Mors and Spear Hero Pale to a draw.

...And though it might be obvious, Tycon is more than capable of thrice beating the Gold-Rank Gorgon Idiot, Stephanos, half to death.

However, Tycon is sorely outclassed by King, the supposed Sovereign of the Elves. The Ancient uses reckless movement techniques and violent weapon and empty-handed techniques, all which bear passing familiarity to the gentle and graceful forms of the Elven Blade Dance.

Having only reached Gold-Rank in the past couple of years, Tycon is nowhere near Adamantine-Rank... and is not likely to match a Gold-Rank of King's caliber in combat without the use of one or more external advantages.

Post in the comments below if I missed anything of major importance. I may append this chapter if information arises of relevance.

As always: thank you, friend-cultivators, for your support.

I pray you learn something from our defeats and victories, both.

Take heart. Stay the course.

Swift judgment and death to your enemies, as well as the enemies of Sol Invictus.

...

O' Sol Invictus. Thou shalt sing of us in praise //

Else mourn thy dead, by bullet, spell, and blade
