    1. i feel like theyโ€™re normal, but also much less lore heavy, which makes them feel shorter. We just came off the back of a massive lore heavy arc, so weโ€™re probably not going to go as in depth for a few chapters are least, before we dive back into the thick of things in that regard is my bet. This chapter in particular didnt seem to offer much info for us to discuss or look at so felt quicker to absorb properly, at least from my perspective

    1. This part, right?โ€œWhen Banozant learned that the person he had met in the labyrinthโ€ฆโ€I think that the โ€œheโ€ was referring to Regal Vagos

      1. This is the way I took it as well. I had to read it a few times, though.

  5. Also, I have to commend the author for writing really intelligent characters, intelligently. When Bjorn outsmarts them, it elevates him, rather than showcasing their incompetence. All the characters think deeply, and have their own motivations and personality, and that really adds up to make a compelling story. Thatโ€™s my 2 cents

  6. Dragon slayer guessing the secret to Bjorn after 1 encounter is crazy when you think about it. Its spot on what the goddess said is his gift. He definitely needed to be delt with early.

    1. Even dealing with him early is gonna be difficult these days. As a tank, itโ€™ll take time to whittle him down, and that just if heโ€™s alone. Bjorn is a beast, but his strength is also in his social game – fostering companions with great prowess and loyalty. And heโ€™s bound to get you talking by then, with verbal taunts and jabs to throw you off your game

  7. wasnt much to comment on this chapter feels like, Bjorn figured it out! something is up in bifron for sure, and Noark has some kind of plan there, and now Bjorn knows, which is honestly the worst thing that Noark could have happen for their plan, the very fact that Bjorn knows is bad luck for them

      1. Yeah, I feel like bro didn't intend to corner Bjorn that much, he probably just wanted to plant a seed of discord, but he couldn't have imagined Bjorn have done so much against the royal family that it was a death sentence for him to play his games like that ๐Ÿ’€

        3. Great thought. Him being at such odds with the Royal Family is totally unappreciated in a broad sense.

      2. His first mistake was opening his mouth.

    2. Well, even if Bifron turned out to be a dud, Bjorn would have definitely not chosen going to the capital. He would've probably started smashing heads right there, so nothing would have gone like that vice commander was hoping forโ€ฆ Bjorn is not that stupid to give his head to the royal family like that.

    3. For sure, he is the big wrench in their gearbox, and none of Demon Eye's bluffs nor pressuring workedAlso, looks like Lirane Vivian might be a Korean player (unless thatโ€™s just translation carry-over). Also, Iโ€™m pretty sure she was Butterfly at the round table. They have very similar speech and behavioral patternsSpeaking of the round table, I miss it in times like this – we might have been able to get some exposรฉ on Noark or the Royal famAlso, last take – Noark/Noah's Arcโ€ฆ canโ€™t be a coincidence, especially in light of the Witch's world ending curse. Maybe the author was trying to allude to them originally being the Empire's safety net of some sort? ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ
