Is this on hiatus now? Raws website says something like "suspension".
According to Google Translate the pause is only "this month" (February, the series is monthly) and not because of health issues. So the next chapter should be released in a few weeks.
Usually to give the artist time to do the volume covers and other artwork for physical releases, most mangas have a month 'hiatus' around February for that reason. Chounin A wa Akuyaku Reijou wo Doushite mo Sukuitai was a recent example of this i can think of
oh thank god...
i thought it's axed, with the title being [good morning, and see you later] and all.

As Jakeh said, it's a case of them taking a hiatus to do artwork. Here's the Google Translation of the notice of hiatus post:

The king was so stupid and desperate that he ruined his whole property just on a very untested theory that dragons appear in dried-up territories.
It's unclear what kind of threat is announced by "the prophecy", but he managed this very heavy-handedly both on the Redguard territory and his own. And karma struck just as heavily.

Funny thing is, using a pretty broad description of the events, Daddy Redguard said technically the truth about the dragon.
The spirit vein dried up. => Conditions were met for a dragon to appear.
He's just kept silent about the fact what all the conditions were, in particular that they involved a (former) human being with special powers who wouldn't have summoned that second dragon if not for fixing the spirit vein.
So drying up the spirit vein indeed pushed Tougo into action. This is true but one might consider this a lie by omission.

Actually his actions are understandable if we have the information of the prophecy. Suppose it's a catastrophe coming up - and the only known prevention is to have a dragon, somehow. You would've done desperate measures, perhaps including taking hostage of the Redguard land's vein to get the dragon.
It's like fighting for oil when your whole country's economy is based on it. Understandable, though doesn't make it right.

We are seeing the side of the MC here and we are oblivious to his side's, especially the prophecy. Also, the king doesn't know the source of the dragon - and whether he can get it 'easy' if he just ask kind Tougo.

Except he forgot one factor, even if we do give him the benefit of the doubt regarding his intentions and the prophecy.

Summoned creatures in this setting have a will of their own. They don't automatically side with the summoner. So trying to force one that already chose a contractor to your side is insane and would probably do very little to help against whatever calamity might be announced.

It's even worse if you try to get a wild dragon to be summoned "naturally" in order to fix something you broke intentionally. Why would you think such a powerful entity would side with you? Going by this theory, the dragon would be an incarnation of nature manifesting to fix a problem. That you caused. It would be more likely to kill you on the spot as the cause of the problem.

Whatever the case, this was less of a gamble and more of a suicide attempt.

The more reasonable approach would have been to ally themselves with a party that already has a dragon (technically a subject of theirs, btw) and ask them to provide support against the incoming crisis. Not antagonize them then attempt self-destruction in the hope of summoning an uncontrollable entity. This goes in the category of "villains too stupid to win". They might be desperate, but that's a bad excuse for this level of insanity.

The king didn't even try to negotiate with the Redguard. That would still have been heavy-handed, but at least discussion would have allowed for an explanation of the circumstances. Instead, they wasted time until the Redguard family 1. found the issue, 2. understood the cause and 3. discovered the perpetrator. All with no evidence, had the territory not been home to the MC. If he was in such a crisis, the king should have been the one approaching the owner of the dragon.

At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if "the prophecy" is actually self-fulfilling as the king ruins his kingdom in the search of a solution that he already had on hand.
