Was that Yuri's first time eating chocolate? I'm kind of surprised Yuri doesn't sense the Observer Rachel has, but she hasn't been close to her and she's so strong it probably doesn't register as a threat. I do hope the observer attacks Rachel though or Androssi destroys it, similar to how Yuri did Pedro's observer in her fight on the Hell Train.
Hockney's eyes are apparently less sharp since the FoD. I wonder if it's due to getting his memories back. I know he got his original eyes back from Hell Joe, but he should still have D'zah's eyes as well.
Finally getting some of Wangnan's back story and Karaka seemed surprised by how he looks. What if they're identical? I wonder if it was Ha Jinsung, Karaka and Baam's mentor who told Wangnan to ask Karaka about the ring when they met. Kinda looked like him in that panel. Also how does no one recognize Wangnan just cause of that mask?
The group is about to meet up with Rak again. I bet he got stronger too. I think this will be a really interesting arc.
SIU's blog post:
As you guys who read my weekly afterwords know but whenever the seasons are shifting I get sick, so I've had a tad bit trouble. Although I'm working to provide maximum work on a weekly basis, whenever work is delayed by this kind of stuff, I get the chills ^^;; I'm not like the new webtoon creators in having plenty of back up chapters drawn up, so if an emergency happens my body really suffers hehe.
Anyway, to talk about this chapter: We have a bit more of our buddy Wangnan's past. I wrote in the afterwords last week, but Wangnan and the ring is a story that is going to be extremely drawn out. Later, of course, it will become a main story arc, but right now, I'm still building up to it.
I've been getting a lot of questions on how you get food in the Train, and to answer that: The Train is a place designed for the training of Zahard and the Ten Warrior's training, so food, clothing, and quarters are all provided by the train. Although due to progression and time I couldn't show you all of it, but all of life essentials can be obtained from the train. Perhaps I may cover it in a side story ^^ someday, I hope.
Karaka and Yuri seem to be at odds in the train, but skills wise Yuri obviously is the winner currently. However, Karaka's sorcery has unique aspects and Karaka holds secrets that make this a fairly even match... yes.
The Train as a whole is a Regulars' Zone, so Karaka or Yuri can't really attack the Regulars, but this particular room is an exception. This was explained before in Karaka's dialogue to an extant, so that explains why Karaka was so intent on making Wangnan bring Viole into this room.
Next week marks the beginning of the Hidden Floor. The Hidden Floor... hm.. It's actually a place where I want to tell a few stories I haven't been able to tell until now, or talk about the Tower's secrets, or the story that the Regulars have... It's a place where you can meet a diverse set of stories. I hope you guys enjoy ^^
Well, have a good week, stay healthy, and I hope to see you next week. Thank you!!
