@Kurzaa said in Isekai Walking Vol. 5 Discussion!:
That interlude at the start threw me, thinking it was the demon lord talking about 2 members of Sora's party. Assuming it was about the twins, who left Altair to challenge the "bandits".
Yeah, it was pretty confusing on the first read. I could tell it wasn't the demons or the King of Elesia, but making references to/from people we haven't encountered before was a hard narrative to follow. I had to go back and re-read the Interlude after finishing Part 4. It makes a lot more sense now.
Also, when Alfried said, "The people he mentioned, then?", the "he" in this case was almost certainly Ignis, who had traveled to the Lufre Dragonlands ahead of Sora's party.
BTW, Sark and Sahanna are on the cover of the volume, if anyone wants another visual reference for what they look like.
