Thanks for your work so far.Well ig thats the last chapter I will do unless I find another JTL in a month(DM on discord if interested). If after a month I dont find anyone, then whoever is interested can DM me and i can give what raws i have left( and can send you to the guy who gave me raws), if i wont pick anything else till then i m also willing to colab.
I think it's meant to remind the audience that, basically overnight, the MC went from being an adventurer to casually slaughtering innocent adventurers. Yeah, he kinda needs to in order to survive and grow, but he feels absolutely no guilt about efficiently exterminating humans. When he lets the final girl escape, I think the audience was supposed to expect he did it because he didn't want to cross a line, but then the MC subverts our expectations and gives a emotionless, pragmatic reason for finally sparing one person. I think this is going to have been an important thing for the story to emphasize in this chapter because of the implications in store for this old party member that the audience is supposed to feel sympathetic towards.I'm not sure why the author decided to add in the backstories of the deceased adventurers, since the MC loss of humanity didn't come up at all in the chapter. Not a whole lot of reason to raise empathy for those characters if the audience POV (that is, MC) doesn't have or isn't willing to explore it. Perhaps that will change with the upcoming meeting with his old partymate. 🤷
There's a (smaller) probability that he just straight up kills her, as a way of highlighting just how inhuman the dungeon is forcing him to become.This can go two ways. Mary knows about MC current situation and overall fixing their relationship, possibly with that other dude she talked as well. Or Mary decided to think MC as the enemy of humanity for being a DM and tell the other party members about it.
Thing is that they already did almost all of this in a previous chapter and just blew right past it. We got "huh, that's weird. I don't feel a thing after killing these random people... Anyway, about that dungeon catalogue..." And immediately moved on as if it wasn't important. Aside from him leaving a survivor to tell the tale this is no different and didn't require the backstory flashbacks before each party member died. Because if we already know he doesn't care about their lives at all and that the series doesn't seem interested in exploring that fact then there's no need for us to care about them either.I think it's meant to remind the audience that, basically overnight, the MC went from being an adventurer to casually slaughtering innocent adventurers.

Looking at the manga's cover art for volume 1, I'm going to assume there's a strong possibility thatThis can go two ways.

I glanced at the WN, and I think the 2nd girl isLooking at the manga's cover art for volume 1, I'm going to assume there's a strong possibility that
she's going to get turned into a monster and join MC's dungeon.

It was just to show that they all triggered Death Flags before starting the exploration, that their deaths were not directly due to the MC but the party tempting fate.I'm not sure why the author decided to add in the backstories of the deceased adventurers, since the MC loss of humanity didn't come up at all in the chapter.
