"Left arm of Diabolos"
That's clearly a right arm on the ground though..
Several options here:
1) The page has been mirrored.
2) Artist accidentally drew right arm instead of left.
3) Author accidentally wrote left arm instead of right.

If it's left arm in the LN then we can rule out #3.

@Zybe The LN says "right arm" so #3 is definitely what happened

Edit: Turns out I read a bad translation and the WN and LN say "left arm"

Hello, I'm the translator of chapter 17v2.
Regarding the right/left arm matter:
I haven't read the web novel, but I've read the Japanese light novel (several times actually).
In the light novel, Olivier cut off the LEFT ARM, and such is the case with the manga.
I would assume that panel with the right arm is an art fucky-wucky, especially since the next panel goes back to using a left arm.
Edit: sauce for those who can read moon runes

@KB1011 Thanks for the sauce. Now I'm confused on why the LN English translation I read and the fandom says "right arm" even though 左腕 is "left arm".

Edit: I looked at the web novel and it also says left arm.

It's... very off to read, the original's dialogue for the first few pages was more similar to what I've come to expect, it honestly feels like change for the sake of change.

I just love how the MC is going around, not taking much seriously, while there's a tropy and cliche (but not too bad) story actually going on.
Like, you can just take the parts the MC isn't Shadow out, make a few changes to some dialogue, and it works.
This is so fricking stupid I love it.
