A third party instead of just human avarice at play. Well, the odds are good it being some up their own ass angels, but that secret lab puts in a "human trying to make a perfect race" to the betting pool.

you are going to droop it because a plot twist is hinted? the new demon lord probably has a reason for provoking the mc, i don't think they will go with the "the demon king wants to destroy the other world too".

unless you are talking about the guess the other guy made of what is going to happen in the next chapter. i think that is not what is going to happen by the way, it feels more like he will be about to die because of his anger, and she will help him snap out of it while she is also bitten up by the demon king. but remember that he has gotten a lot of flashbacks from the real takeru's memories related to the girl, it feels like death flags.
yes, I will, I think was very clear on that. lol

None is dropping shit if nobody eats it. We'll see you again when the next chapter is released.

Idk how I feel about the Prime Minister being a puppet that executed Takeru. Like I get there should be some sort of big bad that he has to face eventually so this sets that up but brainwashing just feels so bland. Would've rather he been manipulated by someone behind the scenes even if thats also overdone. Also the princess never explicitly said she offed the Saintess so could just be provoking him to see how powerful he really is
I'm pretty sure the Saintess at the time would have gladly joined the demons after watching humans pointlessly killed the person that saved them.

I do like how the citizens had that moment of realization when they wished for help from their savior and then remembered "Wait, we killed him...."
There was a similar scene in the anime cube third (cube to the third power), where the first big bad got beating by the MH and was saved by her supporter who became attached to her due to being the only person to treat her kindly. Afterwards, she tried to negotiate with the main cast but when the big bad heard about it she killed her. Later during the second fight and the MH once again defeated big bad right before she killed her the big bad started screaming for help and the last person she called out for was her supporter but then she stopped and sadly realized that she herself killed her.

Because they don't know his real name.

There was another series which focused on this point on how people knew the Hero, but don't his name, even-though it was constantly being promoted by the kingdom.
I thought of this one, tho the protag wasn't the hero in this one, he was famous, but always had a helmet on https://mangadex.org/title/19dfa2f3...akobiya-ni-nattano-ni-naze-ka-yushatachi-kara
Feel like there has been another 1 or 2 I'm forgetting tho

Oh yea, there was a manga that just started where even the people supporting the hero don't know who he is, but it's a sentai ranger thing: https://mangadex.org/title/8a5d11d6-cafd-41b1-adab-06e0bef692c6/golden-man

If you do remember, please let me know

Sorry guys, just got notified of a small mistake on pg. 19. Missed the part where Calmia says Lukifel is the King. Fault rectified. Apologies for any confusion caused.

My theory is that the Saint was the one who manipulated the King and the Kingdom, order given by the God/Goddess of that world

Thanks for the chapter! Great work as always!

Holy crap, this is about to be an absolutely wild fight. Demons wasted zero time on invading, like 5 minutes after he was executed. They're still standing on the platform with his body.

But why does she look similar to Edelweiss? Even Takeru mistook her for a second.
Chance probably. It they invaded literally 5 mins after the heroes death no way Edel could be the demon lord.

Anyway this chapter shut down Edel being the demon lord or Takeru misremembering his body theories that I hated arguing against.

I don't know why so many people are arguing for twists. That's literally what M. Night Shyamalan got bagged on for, and rightfully so. Twists for the sake of twists is garbage.

You should be arguing for well written plot developments, not shocking twists. The journey is what you should be rooting for, not sudden shocking changes.

That being said, I don't think this is the body of Edelweiss, based purely on the bottom panel from page 3, Calmia isn't as buxom as Edelweiss is. I think it's more a function of her voice sounding similar to her. I am sure Takeru would instantly spot it, if it was just Edelweiss with Horns. In the introduction scene, it was more like that's the scene he was expecting to happen again. And he was shocked that it wasn't her welcoming him back. Betrayed by nostalgia. And if Calmia wanted to really mess with his mind, she would have appeared as Edelweiss with whatever illusion magic she was originally using, if that was the case, and then done a reveal about it.

Regarding the Prime Minister, it's sounding more and more like he was a member of a death cult. There was actually shockingly little in the story about what the religions and pantheon of this world is like. So we don't know anything about what the gods are like/do they actually exist. The PM could just be a fervent believer of something, and not necessarily a puppet puppet. Like stories of demon worshipers who invite a demon into themselves. And it might not be Angels in the traditional sense either. It's not like he went SSJ, he just raged out. One would assume being taken over by a powerful being would increase his base stats, but he just gets mad.


Edit: Oh, and I forgot to mention, I'm really glad the people at the execution aren't the same civilians running from the massacre (aside from the military and the executioner). I read back specifically to see if I could spot any of the same people. You don't want/need to make them all the exact same people to emphasize the tragedy of the situation. Making them all hypocrites really dulls the reader into accepting violence.

Tbh, i think many peeps are taking the Princess' words at face value....why should we trust someone like her?
Cause she invaded the place in like 5 mins and Edelweiss was right there at Takeru's death. Unless she had a teleportation spell for all the demons ready at the get go this seems like a really hard thing to pull off.

I'm curious about the brainwashing thing. But I can't help but think serves them right for killing the mc. Plus dudes body was still there 😭.

I sense a plot twist coming... There's now way this will end with those demons just losing or fleeing here

I wonder what's the endgame for the demons? And what about the other kingdoms? There was no mention of them having their own heroes so I doubt the demons stopped just there.
If there were other kingdoms that had any amout of power he would have been kept as a deterrent, or used to conquer them as well. So they likely had no means if resistance.

I don't think it's anything to do with physical appearance. Calmia just welcomed him in the exact same way that Edelweiss did in chapter 1, so he thought of her.
