I hope foxes being able to escape before Ein gives the finishing blow doesn't become a trend.
Anyway, looking forward to the next volume.

Oh joy, it looks like Surtr is trying to gather all five of the Spiritblade Sovereigns. I suspect it's for whatever twisted plan he's been working on and it seems that he's aiming for Laevateinn next which will bring him into direct confrontation with Liz.

What a letdown. It's becoming more and more boring and the MC showing how pathetic beta he is. I had good expectations for this one after the 1* volume but what a deception.

I'll admit it, I'm not a huge fan of Serge and I'm not happy she's receiving so much focus.
I've also mixed feelings regarding how Dorothy might now overshadow nearly all of the regular cast.
Apart of that, tue ten authorities and Luquille are giving us some cool battles and fun interactions between characters, so far they are a worthy addition to the story. Still, obviously, what I'm really looking forward to is the fight between Kelvin and the wicked God.

So here are my guesses:
Grand Lion Star = Donda Ruu
Two Headed Snake Star = Yamiru Lea
Fire Dragon Star = Zattsu Suun
Wolf Star = Darmu Ruu (?) Dan Rutim? (Because of his encounter with the Varb Wolves?)
Dog Star = Rau Lea
Leopard Star = Jeeda? (His association with the leopards around those birds he hunts.)
Hawk Star = Gazaram Rutim
Cat Star = Ai Fa
Monkey Star = Ralfiem Sudra? (Described as a short man, exceptional climber.)
Black Void = Asuta

Anyone else have any theories?

Yay just what I wanted, a side story on how they met! I was under the impression that Yui didn’t know Fillel was royalty the first time they met but guess not, although I am going to also guess that the twins find out very quickly that the two of them become friends (I doubt Yui can sneak out without the two of them knowing lol)

There’s also the line from the former king, “so she’s his blood relative” and I wonder if “he” is actually her maternal grandfather and not her father. You know, the grandfather who says that he used to have a friend named Theo (who was apparently a handful) and whose house/bakery contains a veritable library of magic books (which admittedly could’ve been her mother’s from her school days, or could’ve been both of theirs).

Fingers crossed that my theory is proven right in volume three!

There's an error in one of the 'Events so far' series of images.
In the second image, 165 years of age, it is written: 'Azeuda Alliance' instead of 'Azueda Alliance'.

Sekei and Oto along with their troops have held off Gen's right wing for 3 days now. Can they hold for one more day? And what's this "prototype" the old Gen general is referring to?
Two major questions that will have to wait until next time to be answered. (d--n it)

And in answer to both questions:

spoiler

Finally reading this now. I hope that ending is addressed in the next volume. What happened to the village/villagers after everything went down? Who is still living?

Another great volume.
I hope the author isn't planning to use the trope that the big bad is actually an alternate version of the hero gone evil, even if it's hard to believe what could be a threat to Raid and Eluria other than themselves.

Just finished reading the volume. I'm liking this series, I hope it will keep going until we reach the conclusion.

Is there a 3rd volume? I was surprised to see translation for volume 3 of Hero and Sage has started.

@Hupmin there's been a few series that missed out. On the last announcement stream there was a comment about it being because of some internal hiccups but they do want to return to getting them in the future. Can't double check the exact wording because there's no stream history for me to rewatch.

Slightly reduces the perks of getting them direct from JNC, but most other publishers never translate those stories either unfortunately so I'm just happy we got some.

Also, "Kilphums" is a stupid name.

Yet its only the second stupidest name Shiro has ever come up with.

Dramom is a better name than Kilphums.
Kilphums seems more like something a grandma would call their grandkid.

I think I liked the afterward more than the book. I would definitely read his book about studying up to write his novels or starting up his own store. Be a bit like Wingfield.

@Alifanfaron A planned break was mentioned in the second post of the thread for the current book: https://forums.j-novel.club/post/371225.

@AliceCheshire I tried to look up online any info about a vol 4, but found nothing. That's another reason I thinking vol 3 is the end. (I hope I'm wrong 'cause I really liked this story line, especially Wibble - lol)

I can't wait for the next volume. Not spoiling what happens but when we got to the next arc in the otherwise unremarkable anime it made me want to read the series. Only to lament that it hadn't been licensed.
