Using my left hand, I manipulated my weighted pendulum—which I’d initially launched as a distraction—with my left hand, aiming it at the back of Gostaura’s head as he turned away.

Using my left hand, I manipulated my weighted pendulum with my left hand.

Redundant statement, or something like that.

Literally all of the illustrations in this volume appear at least a few paragraphs and sometimes many pages after the ideal point. Often after the narrative has moved on, which makes them a complete waste.

I've been seeing that less often lately, which made me think that JNC had changed a policy, but IDK. In any case, it would be better if they were placed more carefully. If a thoughtless solution is truly required, placing all illustrations at the beginning of their chapter would be less than ideal but still on average better than the current placement.

Ruri accepted that Chi saying it wasn't his forte meant that he **couldn't ** do it, but she assumed that he had no interest in making the effort.

Was this supposed to imply that Chi could do it if he made the effort?

I'm not sure if this is intentional, but the paragraphs for the future excerpt doesn't seem to be formatted correctly (at least on my device). The start of each paragraph has less indentation.

They’re being led by a black-haired general on a white horse and a silver-haired female general on a white horse!”

If I remember correctly (ignore me if I don't) but Zetsuei, who Sekiei has been said to be riding, is said to be a black horse?; black-haired general on a white horse->black-haired general on a black horse
(also the part later mentions Sekiei being on a black horse)

That’s why he underestimated Jo Hiyou and Gan Retsurai, and wrote them off as bit players in this war, instead focusing all of his energy on settling things with me.

Maybe just me but not sure how the word would apply here so misspell?; bit->big

There's a couple mentions of gunpowder, but I don't recall there being guns mentioned anywhere. Changing this to black powder would be more appropriate, as calling it gunpowder implies the existence of guns.
