Good chapter. Genocide sword user will lose and run away, but the sword master will let him use it freely in hopes he'll get him out. Kinda checkmating the Kamunabi there.
While that's possible, I think there's a lot to still go through. Sword master was Rokuhira's brother, Yura's past, why the island nation attacked them, etc.
It's doing OK if not impressively in the rankings, so I imagine the sales are decent enought to not be under pressure. Although if the unfinished chapters are anything to go by, the mangaka himself might have had enough.
