Read the latest translated chapters. Welp, now I'm sad :(

I have absolutely no idea how a manga this good had escaped being scanlated for so long.

I like that this chapter shows that the awakened humans still have a little bit of free will. Edil, for example, clearly intervened in the fight between Mikaros and Hyura to save Hyura's life. It's probably some sort of "exact words" thing going on, i.e. the king says "go and fight the demons" without any specific details. This allows the humans to follow the orders to the letter while still being able to do as they wish. I just hope Mikaros doesn't figure it out, or that loophole will be closed real quick.

I don't think he can really close that loophole as such. Them retaining their personality is an intrinsic part of the process used to make them stronger so he can't subsume their personality, at least, not with that particular spell. He may be able to close it with another spell. Other than that, all he can do is keep a stricter eye on them and give more stringent orders.

That was what I meant, but I didn't make it clear in my post. My bad. On the other hand, since the humans have to follow the king's orders, the king (or whoever is controlling him, since I'm betting he's just a puppet too) must be really careful not to give orders that are too strict to avoid gimping the human's fighting. For example, if the humans were ordered to "attack the demons at Shin Castle", they would be unable to stop attacking the demons at Shin Castle, even if they were needed elsewhere, essentially precluding them from re-deploying on the fly to face new threaths.

Speculation: Mikaros "releases" Edil, but because he's already breaking free of the King's orders it also releases him from control and Mikaros gets his poo poo pushed in

Next chapter prediction:

"Hahaha, you can't kill your old comrades, can you?"
"Remind me, is she the same as all other winged soldiers? I.e., she respawns after she dies? You do realise that in this case there's nothing stopping me from killing her and then punching your head clean off your shoulders, do you?"

I will take it upon myself to tell Mikaros to eat a dick every time he shows up in a chapter, starting right now.

Eat a dick, Mikaros.

So from a few chapters ago, we saw the King actively helping Helck and Anne get through the city faster than otherwise, while also showing them a glimpse of the nature of the new world. Wonder what exactly they are and what their goal is here.

Speculation: the King is someone from the ancient civilization that collapsed because of the power of the New World, and they don't want it to happen again; however, Mikaros and Rafaed hijacked the King's power through Charami and used it to make the winged soldiers, so the King is helping Helck and Anne as much as they can (within some limits) to try and stop team jerkface.

Either aunt or great-aunt or great-great-aunt or something, depending on how many generations have passed (the witch's the first Red Heavenly Dragon's sister, and I don't think it was mentioned which number Anne is). Still a relative though.
