SINGLE RANKERS OR BUST What happens when you put one down-on-his-luck amateur novelist and one amnesiac ghost girl in one bargain-priced haunted apartment? You get the punch line of Bambi's life. The good news is, Ako is neither the ghost of the person who supposedly committed suicide in the rental nor an unfriendly poltergeist hell-bent on causing chaos. But she needs a place to hang out until she can ascend to wherever ghosts go and Bambi needs source material for his career, so maybe they can have a mutually beneficial relationship...
This is far more enjoyable than it ought to be - I love watching Desir stick it to those horrible noble snots.
On another note, the Ize edition of this volume changes the texture of the covers and quality of the pages - they aren't as glossy or thick. It's fine, just interesting to note.
we get introduced to a few other characters. Zod is the head of the Tower of Magic and he’s known by everyone for his numerous achievements in the magic field. However, Desir knows him as his comrade, and this time he needs his help to develop more powerful magic ahead of the timeline Desir knows from his past life. We don’t know much about Zod, as his appearance in this volume is brief, but it would be interesting to find out more about him as he appears to be a quirky character.
We also get an introduction to the outers, a group of people who want to bring chaos to the world and let the shadow realms rule. They are the enemies of humanity, and it’s also because of their actions that humanity wasn’t able to survive in Desir’s previous life. He’ll stop them at any cost this time, and at the same time he’ll take advantage of the messes they cause to reach his goals.
While we are still at the beginning of the characters’ story, we have seen Pram, Romantica and Azest grow incredibly thanks to Desir’s help. I wonder if we’ll see a development in skills for Desir as well. He’s the weakest among all of them, but his knowledge of magic gives him the upper hand.
