Chapter 81

I can’t believe this arc still isn’t over :joy: Is this really all happening in a single night?

Also, I’m unclear on how that one mage’s wind knocked Beldarut’s chair over. But we got more insight into his physical condition. Having to deal with bones that break from a fall like that must be really rough.

But he made it to sagehood, so he didn’t let it keep him down!

Chapter 81

Yeah, it feels like this has become a crazy long story arc now. I do feel ready to get past the leech and move on now. I really thought chapter 81 was going to be it when their final plan came together and the monster was defeated - perhaps we’ll get there in chapter 82!

It’s also been a very complicated story arc. We’ve met a lot of new characters, and there have been lots of side plots running concurrently. I feel like it would be enjoyable for the reader to have some closure on some of these plot lines now and for the story to move onto new things. Hopefully we are nearly there!

We did get some fun magical ideas again in this chapter. I liked the little stones that drew the leech’s attention, it was also a nice twist that the leech was intelligent enough to realise they weren’t food and to start ignoring them.

Chapter 81

It’s been going on for the last three volumes (the giant leech first appeared at the very end of volume 11). That took probably ~2-3 years of serialization. It’s a good thing we were reading from a backlog.

I also wonder if there’s something more behind his actions. Earlier there was a hint that there’s someone higher that makes the rules. It almost seemed like he might be possessed?

Yeah, that’s why initially I thought there might be some other force that is enforcing the rules. But I don’t know how that would work if they can just change the rules on rewinding time on their own.
