1000% Serie is gonna die. Too much foreshadowing.
While i agree with you, there is still a chance she escaped her death with fake death so she can remove her title (i find this not interesting actually). Actually the real reason is for this title can go longer because i still don't know what's the true goal of this story to declare the end

Instead of "The continent's greatest magical civilization that Flamme built", it might sound better if Flamme was replaced with "my apprentice". Thats what I get from serie reminiscing little Flamme and the impact she left on human civilization.

Or not, mentioning her by name could mean Serie respects Flamme as an equal(not in power ofc).

shoutout to äußerst being the most unpronounceable and untypable word presented in the series so far
same for Aura's äußerlese. What's equally annoying is in the dub it's pronounced quite differently

Im kinda dissatisfied that fern didnt kill the priest, not because I want her to kill someone but because it feels silly at this point, they are trained assassins, you cant go soft on them, stark was going to die some chapters ago, mercy will only get you killed
I don't think the party has ever killed any human yet. Maybe it's a crime or maybe they think humans are not beyond redemption. Or the party is just you know, nazi on demonkind only.

I have a hunch that Minus enacted war in the South out of boredom because she wants death, thus imagining her own death. I doubt Serie has ever imagined her own death (has she.?)..

Wait how long is Stark out for? Doesn't seem that long since he's awake near the end

Despite her best efforts, it looks like Frieren didn't manage to solve the problem and leave town before Serie gets there.

Why do you keep saying Serie is childlike? Usually you'd call someone child like because they have untempered emotions and little impulse control. When has she ever given that impression?
Frieren's character arc and what Kraft, Frieren, and the drunk elf have said. Growing up for an elf isnt about physical maturity its about mental maturity. Learning to move past their own instincts and associate with eachother and the mortal races. Serie hasnt done that, she sees Humans as tools or pets, refusing to acknowledge that she mourns Flamme in any way despite the fact she chose to become Flamme's mother.

Fern is natural born sniper with SVD Zoltragunov, hiding in the crowd and AWMed her enemy a second when their stealth is undone for attack.

Time to back playing Sniper Elite again, brb.

Long distance and quick draw Fern to one shot is really a force to reckon with.
It is possible that she deliberately not try kill, but it is possible that she also simply failed. I think it would be out of character for her to really go for the kill. We already saw this kind of magic not dealing a lot of damage against human clothes with magic resistance, so it makes sense.

In the last chapter, we saw that Sein relative power level with the Goddess magic is probably higher than the shadow warriors priests. So the group is quite strong and more balanced in its own right.

I do not think Serie would die here. Her intuition never fails and that is her main perk, but we don't know how far that would extend to. She knows almost all human magic and she said demons feared her power in the mythical era.
As far as we know, only Fern (and probably Frieren too) knows that Serie restrains her mana and do it better than Frieren. So for her to hide part of it, but still display a large output anyway could be a 4d chess move.
But we know that pure strength could easily overpower a mage, so there is still a way.

My though on Sense statement that elves are arrogant towards death is that she is wrong. Serie and Frieren witness the end of the elves civilization and saw a lot of human death, so they know they could die. Both lives in seclusion and not really showing off for centuries, so to not attract too much attention.
We don't know exactly how Minus died nor why. So it is hard to tell. Kraft is also roaming around. But as a monk, he may never be targetedline Serie and Frieren.
