Well you can tell that is the end of this arc with that style of ending. In fact, if I didn't know this had another roughly forty chapters to go this could have been a mildly satisfying "their story will continue" ending to the entire manga.
Of course, given that this ended up getting axed we know that it'll have some type of version of that in the end anyways. Wonder how the "Bear Clan" will end up reacting (if at all) to being handed over to the MC? Narae didn't seem to notice.
