When Landia falls, a [[Master Crown|mysterious glowing crown]] falls from one of his heads. As Kirby and his friends celebrate their victory, Magolor appears without warning and congratulates them with a mysterious stillness. He then takes the crown and places it on his head, revealing that he had fabricated the entire scenario in order to obtain this "source of limitless power". Magolor transforms into a frightening ethereal being and promises to conquer the universe, starting with [[Popstar]]. He leaves Kirby and his team through a transdimensional portal, intent on stranding them on [[Halcandra]], but Landia assists Kirby and his team by pursuing Magolor through the rift.

Eventually, Kirby and his team catch up to Magolor and do battle with both him and his ship. The battle is hard, and much magical power is exerted on both sides, but Magolor is eventually defeated, having been mutated into [[Magolor Soul|a horrid magical specter]] in the process. The Master Crown shatters and Magolor vanishes after being restored to his normal form. He is not seen again for the remainder of the game, but he reportedly survives and later makes amends with Kirby.

There is an easter egg foreshadowing his betrayal. The alliterative first letter of every level's name (shown in bold), from [[Cookie Country]] to [[Dangerous Dinner]], spelled out in order, is CROWNED. [[CROWNED|Magolor Soul's theme]] is named that as well. In addition, when Kirby has collected all 120 Energy Spheres and talks to Magolor in the Lor Starcutter in [[Extra Mode]], he may have one of the following conversations (he doesn't reveal as much in Main Mode):

Once they catch up to where Magolor has gone, he summons the [[Lor Starcutter]] to do battle with them, ironically using each of the parts that were recovered to do various attacks. After the Lor is shot down, Magolor makes his getaway, and the team pursues Magolor himself, who proceeds to knock each one of them out of the air.  On the ground, Kirby and his friends then must fight Magolor hand-to-hand in his souped-up form. During this fight, Magolor demonstrates the Master Crown's power with a variety of unending magical attacks, including throwing spheres of dark energy and opening rifts to try and suck Kirby into a realm of pain, even resorting to creating a star-shaped Super Shield when his health is nearly depleted. Kirby has to break through the shield by using his various Super Abilities and then finish Magolor off.

Unfortunately, even this is not enough, as the Master Crown pulses, reincarnates, and takes control of Magolor into an even larger ghostly-looking form. He opens the second phase by immediately dispelling Kirby's Ultra Sword ability (assuming he still has it when that part of the battle begins), and then displays even more ludicrously powerful attacks, including his own versions of the Super Abilities that Kirby had been using throughout the game. Once he is defeated again, he finally dispels slowly and reverts to Magolor's original form.  The Master Crown levitates off his head and shatters, leaving Magolor to warp inward and disintegrate, ending his role in the game's storyline.

It is shown later on that this did not actually end up killing him, and he seems to have lightened up without the Master Crown's influence or allure, as he is seen in later main-series games.
