@sea_stones The staff on Discord have made it clear that the main story has finished, and that further continuation would possibly be dependent on sales. This manga unfortunately does not sell well, and the fact that the material does not have clean files means that it requires extensively more redraw work than a typical modern manga. JNC is business too, so if this series was bleeding their resources and barely anyone was purchasing it, I can understand why it's been placed on the backburner for the time being.

That is fair, I was not aware of this. (Not on the Discord.) I figured it wasn't a great seller, and even the translator said it was something he'd wanted to do. I'm grateful for the work they've done though!

So I'm a little nervous but haven't seen any recent developments. Just hoping things didn't get dropped. Any news to share?

I had another quick look at MU, and here's what I found this time:

Status in Country of Origin
13 Volumes (Complete)
7 Volumes - Shinsouban (Complete)

That red part wasn't there last time I checked. I guess JNC licensed/translated the Shinsouban version and that's why no volume 8 appeared in the schedule?

All very confusing.

And so, we meet King Leonhart. Sup, Your Maj?

Gremory is the best character 😆

I love that she gets a chance to shine in this chapter

Yase! I enjoy her a ton in the novels but seeing her antics in manga form has certainly been a treat.

Though what I'm really looking forward to seeing is how the manga will present a certain pistol packing goth lolita vampire. Just the reactions to her from everyone else should be delightful.

I've mentioned this before. At least I hope I have.
They nailed it when they selected Yuuchi Kosumi as the mangaka.
The art style is ...sketchy... and that actually works just fine.
Where lots of detail helps, lots of detail is there.
But where a quick sketch will grasp the essence, it does.
I am seriously impressed.

Yes, same. When the series started I actually had my doubts. Then the first time he gets into an actual fight, I realized how detailed it really was despite it generally not seeming that it is.

And the artwork on the characters is fantastic. Lacy is super cute here and makes me want to hug her and shield her... which is exactly the reaction the story is trying to provoke from me at this point.

You can tell that last panel was a magical kiss because it summoned magical snowflakes, weird angular lens flares and illuminated roses. If the prince used this magic more often maybe his lady wouldn't get so angsty all the time.

Luna is badass in this chapter!

They kind of glossed over Luna and Eagle joining up, almost like a page is missing. One scene has Luna collapsing then a few panels later Luna and Eagle are together.

IIRC Tahara should be in this battle somewhere. I wonder if the next chapter is going to focus on Tahara or the demon lord kicking ass.

I always keep tabs on the 'Our Latest Digital Releases' section on the front page, to not miss any novel releases. But noticed this was sitting between the latest two novel releases but doesn't show on the release Calendar page, or at least I can't find it there?

Also, most of the places selling this show October 5th as release date, but it isn't on Calendar page either at that date.

ok, this is pretty funny. It started out (in Vol 1) mostly just annoying, but I kept at it, and then after a few chapters it got funny. And then hilarious in vol 2.

but poor brownie. so shy. gets no screen time

also I love how Niwato still thinks they're all MC's kids (and wife)

Buff Pixie is kinda cursed, not gonna lie. Also, what the heck happened to Salamander?

swole pixie is a true blessing

I mean, it make sense that that would shave some time off your lifespan.

Oh no. We don’t need to be teaching Undine the ways of seduction, thank you very much.

Nice Finding Nemo reference.

Holy crap! Ellyllon’s mom actually looks like her mother and not just another Ellyllon!

Wow. Even automatic doors don’t notice Ellyllon.

Oh no. Even Ellyllon’s mom seems to want her to get together with the protagonist.

I think my favorite character so far is Cait Sith. Also, this volume was hilarious!

Old Man Inglis' faces in the manga are great, I hope the anime is going to do them justice.

Is that the girl from way back to the start who taught Arata English? I was wondering if she'd ever show up again.

Well now I'm left to wonder why a gambling den has suddenly sprung up in the territory.

"There's no way you can kill an army that's already dead!"

Wanna bet?

Some pretty good lines, as usual.

Also, per usual, it's pretty hard to feel any sympathy toward those who force Yogiri to kill them.
Buncha a-holes.

Currently, Lady Lain appears to be the only one who's willing to put any faith in his ability to kill anything he desires... and it sure looks like she'd like to die for real. Apparently, if you are a halfway decent person, immortality is a bitch.
Dispatching troublesome underlings to check him out, well, they are troublesome, so verifying he can take them out is kinda a win/win for her...

This is one seriously fucked up world.

Part 3:
Man, that “motivation piechart” was hilarious!

That innocent whistling, though. (Although, it’s kind of strange for a five-year-old to be able to whistle.)

Woah. That’s a scary face on Inglis.

Part 4:
Wow. Inglis and Rani sure are cute together.

Part 5:
That illustration of Inglis with glasses was pretty funny.

Are we sure that Inglis and Rani are actually only 12 after the time skip.

Okay, after seeing them next to an adult for comparison, I could believe it.

That panel of Rani imagining Inglis and Rafael getting together was pretty great.

That whole portion of Inglis and Rani walking through the party was pretty funny as well.

Part 6:
Wow. I forgot how much of a dick Rahl was.

That’s a bit weird of pacing to push the climax off until the next volume.

After the next chapter we'll be able to forget about him again. :-)

@abcdave Somewhere in the middle of chapter 3 of volume 3.
