I won't set foot there ever again...
Noooooooooo

 

[GerryCerryBerry]

This was cheap on the author's part. I know he wants to explore new things and new sights, but 'never setting foot there again' seems pretty harsh. Even the way it ended looked like just throwing all established characters of the Fairy Kingdom in the trash. Sealing the ring's abilities, condemning the queen to be serious and being a good ruler for the people looks just bad. Like the author's sick of it all and the only thing with good ratings in the popularity polls was Pikasha. Lazy writing as it comes and MC just suddenly behaves like a midlife crisis kind of guy being sick of everything around him and being all melodramatic and stuff.

The worst chapter so far. And I'm not even that big of a fan of the Fairy Kingdom arc or the queen.

I mean, first he mentally breaks her because of a misunderstanding, gives a lukewarm apology and scolds her again for playing too much and being an unreasonable person in a passive-aggressive way and then throws her away with no way of getting into direct contact again once he leaves the Fairy Kingdom. He's one big ass in the last two chapters and doesn't even make up with her. Just some lazy writing, her being all devout, no back talk at all and even the dragons, the most powerful beings in the whole game, mentioned they are at their wits' end for ways of healing her. It feels like she just got in a nursing home just to get her out of the way.

My god, in retrospective there is so much wrong with the character development in the last few chapters, that they are completely different persons from the earlier chapters. Just their bodies are the same.

@GerryCerryBerry
Couldn't agree more.

To be fair, I never saw the MC as interested in the Queen or the other AIs. He just treats them like normal people, normal people that he's not really interested in. He's also introvert and a tad misanthropic sometimes, so it's pretty easy for him to cut ties comletely and go on his next adventure.

@GerryCerryBerry I really do feel bad for Fairy Queen. She was a fun character, but now she's just been completely written out of the story. He even said they'd "put some distance between each other for a while" before leaving the fairy kingdom permanently, AFTER making sure she'd never leave. I'll probably drop this series if I get to the end of what's been released so far and she doesn't get some kind of comeback.

Pikasha doing the flop love it

I'm 2 yrs late but I don't think he meant "never setting foot there again" to the Fairy Kingdom itself but just to the Castle grounds lol. cuz you know, he relinquished his pass (Ring's passive) to be able to go there and just limited it to, I think, A tier which is from Fort towns up to the outskirt of the Castle. (S tier - Castle grounds, SS tier - audience with the Queen.)

I don't feel like continuing with this manga for now. Maybe I'll read it again in the future, but not at the moment.
