It has been a while since I read WN but this part always on the back of my mind. (I read it all in one run long ago and never reread so I might miss some info that explain it)
is that "cursed" sword actually do anything to current harold? iirc, the WN harold mentioned about it during escorting leafa on snowy mountain.(their first meeting). how it was supposed to draining his life force the more he use, like in the game lore. BUT he never feel it. so I'm not sure if it mean
1)current harold's life force is too strong that he barely feel the "life draining curse" to affect him or
2)that sword has no downside on him for whatever reason even it should be(since Justus also believed harold won't last long)
Thanks for the translation, I think we're up to date with this one which is nice.
I do wonder how long he'll stay underneath Justus, I don't easily see a way for him to separate. I guess as long as he gets some autonomy over time he can influence and check up on things elsewhere.
I think their relationship will be like Sasuke and Orochimaru, where they’ll stay distrustful of each other the whole time and they’re both gonna try to kill each other in the end (and of course Harold will succeed).
if you think its just for this manga you are sorely mistaken he does this ALL the time, go andcheck on manga updates just how many serie he has pick up and how many he keeps picking
