We also have to keep in mind that in-setting time is passing between the Wandering Scholar's books. Just because no lilim was powerful enough to maintain the setting when the scholar wrote MGE volume 1 doesn't mean none are powerful enough currently (which in setting is likely years later).

For those curious, the sequence of events thus far in the scholar's life seems to be:

1. He writes MGE volume 1 over a substantial period of time (each profile is one interview, plus he traveled to interviewed Lilith, her husband, and Bapho-sama at some point, probably interviewing a lilim while he was there), then goes on the run from the Order.

2. World Guide 1 is written while he is sheltering in Lescatie while still on the run.

3. He corresponds with Saphirette as they write World Guide 2 together.

4. He makes it to Zipangu and compiles MGE volume 2 there. He also corresponds with Runya as they plan to write World Guide 3 together.

5. Some time later he takes a ship to the mist continent, but vanishes on the way there. Runya writes World Guide 3 in his stead. His whereabouts currently remain unknown, but Runya thinks the abyssal monsters may have him for the time being.
