This chapter feel so strange. You think you'll get a bit of info but it has been erased from Imai (how convenient. Not even a trace to feed the plot. I hate we get another long ass plot with a secret that will rock your world) but is a eta filler.
The mc, I love how he accept to be played again by Asmodeus rule because he can keep Asuka safe.
But bro, what about your CF, Azusa. Like, she has disappeared again after the plan that failed to save her. Aside a neutral note on her in 58, he didn't feel worried. Poor girl, reduced to a plot device and just to show how cruel are the antagonists.
And...oh well, time to fuck another harem candidate (with how her mind is broken, zero use in the future aside sex).
