That the original author is involved with the continuation of the story from the LN chapter 95 is a surprise to me considering how completely different feel the tone of the story has been since then. Frankly I assumed he died and the publisher sold the story rights because the tone was so different.Everything in the WN past chapter 95 is a "fanfic" and the orignial author isnn't affiliated in any way. Content past chapter 95 is meaningless.
I checked and chapter 95 of the WN corresponds to chapter 45 of the manga. We're now on chapter 60 of the manga. The manga doesn't appear to follow the "fanfic" at all. Instead, the mangaka is coming up with their own story based on vague ideas the author had of how the story would go (yes, the author is directly involved with the making of the manga).
I've read that non-canon novelization by that other writer that follows from chapter 96 and it feels much closer to the tone of the earlier chapters. I actually like it more than the manga's, wished they had used his stuff for the manga rather than whoever is doing the writing of the plot in the manga.
