Oh, thanks for bringing the series back!

Reminds me of when Berserk of Gluttony did this. It's all swords and knights and stuff then zoom, presto, sci-fi!

Use spoiler tags.
IIRC from what I read of the novels

(dropped from translation halting for a while and forgot about it), the whole setting is basically an invasion by mad scientists. Something along the lines of Shocker trying to establish a foothold.

In the books (at least up to where I'd read)

it was kept much more 'appropriately vague' by being from the point of view of the characters, but here the pictures made it instantly clear.

What is it with fantasy stories suddenly throwing in "Oh yeah, this is ACTUALLY a post apocalypse story where the modern civilization fell apart thousands of years ago."
It's interesting if that's part of the main premise, but this is chapter 26 and we've seen 0 mention of this anywhere leading up to this.

tbf, From what was being said in this part and chapter 25 it would be more weird if we did get any mention of this.
It seems to be a really big secret even going so far as giving a nation wide scare just to keep people away from it. So if there were any mentions of it, that would mean someone successfully got out and spread information since info doesn't just come out of thin air.

Thanks for picking this up. I saw some typos but it's completely understandable.

I thought I was reading Boushoku no Berserk from the high-tech stuff. And coincidentally, the latest released chapter here is in a high-tech facility as well. I hope they don't focus on this since I like the existing story's premise.

It can be done well with zero mention a the start, but it has to be a slow burn introduction of these elements, at minimum as slow as done in "Kumo Desuga Nani Ka?" You have to introduce one or two things that make people speculate about it, and then give a couple of more breadcrumbs over the course of at least two or more arcs before doing the big reveal. Otherwise, it just feels like you're rug-pulling the audience when this stuff takes center stage/the original premise is "abandoned."
Honestly, I've seen this kind of "bait-and-switch" often enough lately that I'm starting to think a bunch of these were cases of: "I want to write x story, but y story is popular these days, so I'll make a y story at the start and turn into x story once I get people invested enough to keep reading."
