Contrary to some other commenters here, I think this would make for a good epilogue chapter.
The MC has already trained and mastered swordsmanship, magic, taming and a few extra skills.
He's basically a master of all known skills, so there is not much more margin for progress.

There are two (not mutually exclusive) things left for him to do:
1. conclude with him training the next generation, as is done in this epilogue(?). A time skip is pretty much justified in this case.
2. start off a whole new branch of skills on his own, making him not just a master copycat, but an actual innovator.
Possibly 3. ascend to godhood or something, but that doesn't feel right for the series.

Only problem that worries me a bit: the manga is still marked as ongoing, so it might go into absurd territory.

Or make an op rival that could actually make both of them die killing each other.

He was gone for that long?
And suddenly timeskip?

I mean, sure, cool and all, but my head hurts a bit now.
I think the kids have some time magic going on. He was away a couple days, but they were already rather old kids, kinda able to speak even. And just a couple days after they were walkign and talking and much taller, throwing around spells and swords. Next day they knew how to fly.
Hell, it's been so short he hasn't even gotten time to ask mira why and were she went, and what happened to killing the wife.
I am more surprised noone asks why he has kids, when his wife was never shagged (as far as we know) or (visibly) pregnant.

Wtf? So the author decided, yes, the imouto has some conscience left afterall (or she decided grooming her nephew is easier).
Afterwards, just time skip to about a decade in the future regardless.

The storytelling is getting really haphazard. I mean the story pace of our MC making and raising his kids is just as fast as his skill learning speed.

His relationship with his wife (and also with most other people) is also largely untouched.
Our MC met with so many people in his journey and yet there’s…. nothing the author can use to make an interesting plot instead of just timeskipping….
This really makes it hard to care much about the characters in the series.
I mean, when youre that stupidly broken, theres so so much further you can go. the entire last arc has just been him steamrolling every possible challenge the empire could throw at him. Theres not much growth left, for the MC atleast. switching to his kids is a decent idea in concept, it was just done way too quickly

I liked this manga until this last arc.. I dont like how the sister faced zero consequences for wasting her brother's time to the point he missed his own child's birth, and y'know the whole conspiring to murder his wife.
Entire arc resolution can be summed up with a single Jeremy Clarkson gif.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one shocked by the time skip xD It went so fast I barely was able to keep with what was happening :worry:
