I really, really, really like how this series balance between deep plot X slice of life moments. It's well done, there's some difficult in doing this transitions, but this series does it pretty easily.
It's funny because there are always some death flags during these moments, but I don't think that they will abuse that too much. I do think the plot is developing a lot more slower than other works. I guess that this is part of the manga adaptation from a novel. Don't get me wrong tho, this series is great as it currently is.
Anyway, I do hope Will develops little by little and get to know the world better. Even if that means he gets to fight evil gods paladins'
PS: This chapter has some amazngly great lines, the translation team did an awesome work! A welcome chapter indeed during these dark times. Thanks for your hard work.
