I can’t believe that I almost cried at reading about fictional characters that I love because they’re able to have sex。
Abraxos,
I find the university arcs to be a bit boring compared to the life of an adventurer

The build up finally is paid off in this one。And as for my criticisms raised in the previous book。I can gladly say they were unjustified lolIt was refreshing to see that her family's loss wasn't just swept under the rug。 Sylphie is affected by the tragedy, it just turns out that she's coping in her own way。 The moment Fitz lost his cool and just flat out attacked a person was quite a surprise and refreshing to read of。In the previous book, I mentioned that the concept of 2 Fitz being a writing g The build up finally is paid off in this one。And as for my criticisms raised in the previous book。I can gladly say they were unjustified lolIt was refreshing to see that her family's loss wasn't just swept under the rug。 Sylphie is affected by the tragedy, it just turns out that she's coping in her own way。 The moment Fitz lost his cool and just flat out attacked a person was quite a surprise and refreshing to read of。In the previous book, I mentioned that the concept of 2 Fitz being a writing gimmick and nothing would had come about from thinking who was impersonating fitz when it wasn’t Sylphie。Well it turns out there really was another person。 It is left for us to guess who it is, but one can reasonably assume their identity。Now。。。 there are gripes here as wellBut hopefully they will be taken care of in the next books perhapsThe fact that Ariel would throw away years of planning for Sylphie to be with Rudeus, while writing seems a bit unreasonable。 Even though she is a good person and owes sylphie, I can’t say that I wouldn’t be disappointed if later on it remains such a shallow relation or characterisation。Regardless, while the writing is still the same。 There is a genuine tenderness when chapters shift to Sylphie。Of course my fears of her becoming very passive in the sense of just supporting Rudeus seem more likely, and it feels like she would loose some of her agency。 We can still hope there is something to make her a good character with her own agency in the story。Still, her being the most purest of foil for Rudeus is nice to see indeed。Enjoyed this one like the previous。 The school now feels more solid than just a model of a Japanese Highschool, albeit with magic。 However, there are still nagging issues, like for example, a god being enrolled there。 It ingrates me to no end。 Someone who's lived this long should have had been made a professor to share his knowledge。 It's camp to be sure so I guess it's just one other thing to endure while we enjoy the story。 (But why couldn't he be a teacher!????!? He could clearly be seen as more eccentric when, as a teacher, he would be hanging around students and even taking classes。 I find it a missed opportunity。)Again, I may seem a bit harsh to these books。 But that's because I really have been enjoying them very much, and want to see them be even better then how they are。Like I've said since the first bookThere are glimmers of well though out plot, story and world building。 But the writing, and questionable decisions, at times mars its brilliance。 。。。more

Ernest Ducay,
This volume can be skipped, little to no development at all。 Just Sylphy and hentai。 So just read the first chapter and the 2nd to the last and you're good。 This volume can be skipped, little to no development at all。 Just Sylphy and hentai。 So just read the first chapter and the 2nd to the last and you're good。 。。。more

Fernando Tarango,
Volumen 9Le doy un 4/5 porque más que historia, me reí bastante sobre todo los últimos capitulos, tiene un par de capitulos muy pero muy interesantes e importantes en cuanto a la historia y la importancia del primer y segundo punto de inflexión, pero fuera de ahí es mucho más tranquilo en todo, tirando más a bromas, más a relaciones, etc, tampoco se le puede decir relleno tal cual ya que aparte de los capitulos importantes, ocurren otros eventos también importantes, en general bien。。。
Karla Schneider,
A lot of new characters and development continues to be introduced, this also means an abundance of character development which is the most important aspect of any story。
