Iken Senki Völundio - Vol. 10 Ch. 74 - Siege of the Holy City (2)

[MangaDex]

 

[Prominis]

Expecting everyone on that list to die except Shrike and their captain who will be left crippled and traumatized over the corpse of the twins who sacrifice themselves for her sake despite giving her snark earlier.

 

[dowiet]

hello jumpscare

 

[Saon]

Fuck's sake this looks bad... thank you for your work tho!

 

[Raydnt]

So they used to be human beings? I thought these were outer space beings or something

Or maybe it's the final result of the will of the world, but from ANOTHER world?

Via one of Creo's flashbacks earlier in the series, Völundio claims:
"Mankind brought that disaster upon ourselves...devils born from our well-intended love for peace..."

Perhaps they're less the "Will of the World", and more like the "Will of Mankind"?

 

[Chaosrunewiz]

Thanks for the chapter!

 

[DiscountJoJo]

oh neat, a character sheet on the last page, surely this isn't nefarious at all!

 

[Alx-Jeager115]

Oh boy, pushing forward we go

I mean, IIRC then in Helck engame flashbacks it was shown how these kinds of will of the world monstrosities all resulted from the old mankind's actions/research, so that quote from Volundio flashbacks seems to be perfectly aligned, not contradictory.

 

[kzaofkkua]

Ominous looking Bingo sheet at the end there.

 

[Rubegaz]

I will bet on the gustav elf losing an arm or dying from a backstab.

 

[alacaelum]

Her sword has an analytical type skill, probably wide range detection, and despite being quite a nervous girl... when she locks in, she is clearly quite competent in giving orders.

 

[LordTartaros]

Spooky stuff

 

[ASuperMangaWeeb]

"Woo, I just woke up from a good sleep. Time to start it by reading something. Ah, Volundio updated while I was asleep! That's amazing! Let's see what the chapter contains-"

The ever so helpful horrors beyond comprehension :

 

[Alcion]

I like that they are all individuals and all have individual names.
I don't like how I have so many names to remember.

We already fought and won the will of the world in Helck. It would be a little repetitive to fight it again in Volundio. Also, WotW monsters looked more like overgrown mutants, not dark shadowy things.

I think it's some kind of a super spell that went out of control. I mean in Helck humans managed to cast a world ending portal thing that required overly overpowered beings to close it. Twice! And here the only person who is close to Helcks league is out of action...

The ever so helpful horrors beyond comprehension :

"Ah time for bed oh let me read a few chapters of manga to doze off!
Oh sweet new Volundio "

Author: "Here's something to dream about tonight"

 

[Zthulu]

The "Holy City Elite Squad cast of characters" grid is looking awfully like something you'd cross stuff off of
Thanks for the TL! (also "Elite" on pg 26 is missing an 'i')

Yeah, but that's the thing, it wasn't a permanent win. It was explicitly lampshaded how the will of the world is still there and will continue to be a problem, it was mostly just Mikaros who was defeated in Helck.
