They weakened that "god" guy to the point he couldn't heal instantly and then coco transformed into a hair monster and ate him. Given that he called her Hermes she is either another person who was as strong as him or a god of some sort that was cursed by him. I have no idea if he is actually dead or not though.
This chapter was alot.
Woah, that's a big chapter. It's quite insane what happened in this chapter.
This guy is basically a final boss with everything he can do but they still managed to take him down. I'm not sure he's actually dead though; his corpse might have disappeared by the time they get back from saving their master or he had just sent a clone or whatever. Also, he still exists as a recording or perhaps more in all of the skills. Really neat idea to use the parts of his body from his corpse to get past his barrier.
He called Coco Hermes, a greek god, but he also referred to a god that created the world, but not beastmen, as an entity external to himself. I wonder what that is about.
If Coco is another entity like himself, I wonder about that other alchemist who cursed her and wanted her to get angry is.
The fight got a bit confusing with the flashbacks, the experience of taking possession of a skill and learning to use it (she got the cutting knife before it was disintegrated alongside her arm, so there was an explanation about that). The bone conduction skill is still there, maybe Coco will use it eventually. Imagine someone getting a hold of the skill catalogs.
Was the bunny running so fast to get to the house their clothes got shredded and they ended up naked?!? Beastmen have their own unique skills so that's impressive.
I don't know what the turtle is about (who is Achilles again and why is it there?), but it got turned upside down at the end so it's powerless I guess.
I definitely hope someone picks it up. I think I mentioned before it's got a HunterxHunter vibe way of handling world building. It's probably quite tough to scan properly, and the previous chapters aren't in the greatest of quality (I'm still thankful they were made).

This girl chapter manga all is nuts!!!! and I love everything about it!.
So Coco is Hermes, the "Father of Alchemy"
I hope someone takes over and keeps translating it
@Kireato @bonethrack ,
the one who called Coco Hermes wasn't Areus...I stand corrected, it seems I was remembering something wrong rrom the pre-serializarion and projecting here, my bad.

Incomprehensible as usual. The recovery machine worked even while he was a severed head with no magic? Was it literally implanted in his head and already activated? Did it only prevent death from lethal attacks so it didn't heal his other injuries? Why did the rabbit beastkin strip naked?
When you think about it it doesn't really matter, just embrace it.

I agree, I feel like my 'direct translation' approach undermines the amazing action and shocks that you should probably feel if it's decently translated, I know because I read the raw beforehand and I didn't feel the same shenanigans and intensity when I read the one I translated. That's why I don't feel like continuing this because the manga would be SOO MUCH BETTER had it been handled fittingly. I got the raw until chapter 9, if any of you guys think you can bring out the charms of this work please hit me up!!!
