(L) The Undead Lord of the Palace of Darkness

[Meera]

Wow the newly released chapter of the Web Novel was intense. Forgive me for my interpretation since I used my translation tool to read

Spoiler for web chapter:

So Lord Homus is slowly taking over ML's body and wants to be resurrected as the King of Darkness to rule the old world. At least he gave some useful advice in dealing with magic circle.

I just read what happened last month's chapter. Due to Japan's emergency state declaration, the magazine had to suspend its manga release in its May issue. I hope the situation with the virus won't affect this month release again

[Meera]

So far, the manga version didn't suffer another drawback from the pandemic as the next one will be out in 3 more days. The group in charge of the translation of the web novel is progressing slowing.

[Meera]

yes! The magazine has release the manga version new chapter. Glad it didn't suffer another set back from the pandemic.

Spoiler for a little spoil:

Seiren has her small debut in this and she's beautiful

PS the next released is on 24th of July

Fantastic! Tsuki Kage-san is planning to resumed his writing of the series. He gush how Lou looks and End's creepy looks in the new chapter as he praised the mangaka work in depicting the scenes. Looks like he plans to be involve in the manga as well judging by this

This week has been esthetic with the author cause new chapter was in release in the WN and the manga version. Glad for once the manga new chapter skip couple chapter like

Spoiler for web novel:

End chained up after his failed attempt to kill Horos

It went to the crucial part of the 1st act

Spoiler for the encounter:

which is Senri and End's 1st meeting and he was already attracted to her beauty

There will be a break for the manga adaptation in the magazine next month as the manga team are now working on releasing the 1st volume. The next one will be on September 26

The title call finally happened in this weeks update.
Hopefully the fight can be over soon.
I am more interested in what will be End's next fleeing strategy now that he is a full vampire.

From what I can tell from my interpretation, End is now pissed off at the Shadow King from hurting Senri that now he wants to kill him

[shmaster]

The fight actually ended in just one chapter! But a really intense one, until the author realized he has to bring back the dog.

End should be able to get what he was looking for in the first place by coming to this town.
But really, what is your fleeting strategy this time? The knights will certainly go into panic mode after this.

[sasuke706]

Getting a hiding stone won't be too hard, considering the former skeleton lord made a goddamn sword out of the stuff. There's no reason the sword would disappear on death, considering his castle and other dark shards didn't the first time he died. Plus he just lost his previous weapon and there's a new convenient one available now. Otherwise he could eat him as well and steal his curse. Probably won't go well since it never does.

I'm not sure End becoming a vampire noble will particularly set them into any more motion than they already are, considering there's a vampire lord and his minions constantly making moves everywhere it seems.
The two nobodies that were Senri's former comrades might care but they're nobodies so who cares. Real question is if he's going to stick with Senri, or go off on his own. And if he goes off on his own how he'll deal with the blood problem.
I imagine he can drink vampire blood to sustain himself, since vampires drink human blood thus vampire blood = human blood, but that's all I got.

[shmaster]

No, what I was thinking is that End will just suck the Shadow King's blood and took his hiding power.
And remember gow the knights going all out on the Shadow King eons ago because they fear his hiding power so much?

[Meera]

End's situation is like a dog and it was ironic when he transformed as one with his power. My guess is that Senri will still go with him since the current timeline revealed that they've been together for a year and End is still very depended on her presence. The End Knights so far are still self righteous refusing to see End is different from the other dark beings. End possibly gained the Shadow King's power will further their hunt to kill him

[Meera]

The chapter is out in scanlation. I like that it focus more on the important parts of the novel. I really love how it depicted the protagonists 1st meeting

I believe end will join the end knights with senri. He was always an admirer of then in his childhood and I believe that the end knights will come to terms with end being a special case.

[shmaster]

If Lord Valvatorez is reading today's chapter, he'll definitely applaud End with tears in his eyes.

[Drachenblut]

Can someone say what happened in the epilogue? Is end dead for 3 years now? And senri went back to the order? Did I understand it right?

[sasuke706]

Spoiler for :

Yes, End has been presumably dead for -at least- 3 years. It's a bit vague as the two speakers only mention they heard of rumors about it and started looking for him for three years. So it could be longer, it really depends on the information spread rate. And they found what is probably his heart, though it could also be the skeleton lord's. Just unlikely.

Senri's fate is left ambiguous. Her comrade believed that End's death wouldn't stop her forever from protecting the weak and whatnot like she always does. However, he's also pissed off that End became the one 'exception' of vampire in that, from start to finish, he (un)lived as a person instead of a treacherous monster, and is mad that this exception has been implanted into Senri forever.

It seems Senri's mentor, Epè is also dying (of presumably natural causes). It also spoke of how him living was the greatest deterrence to undead, him being exceptionally powerful and all. So with his death will bring a lot of changes, mainly undead forces becoming more active. Senri's comrade expects she'll eventually fill the gap he leaves, or will at least try to.

As end is not actually dead and tricked everyone into thinking he's dead (with no actual plan for revival, however), he's not actually this exception of a vampire.
I suspect Monica and Oliver's reason for helping End is because they want a new leader to rely on, seeing as End killed their previous one, and the only other Lord we know about only likes vampires and treats anything else like a slave.

@sasuke706 Thank you!
There was something like a teaser in the afterword, could you please tell what the author wrote?
