The Second Capital has fallen to the Demon Blight, and it’s up to the combined forces of the Noble Alliance, the Ninth Order of the Holy Knights, and Penal Hero Unit 9004 to retake it. But first, they must establish a base on snowy Mount Tujin, facing legions of faeries along the way. And once again, the heroes take the most dangerous role— serving as decoys! Meanwhile, as things on the battlefield take a grim turn, a pair of refugees stumble through the freezing wilderness, holding an important key to winning the war ahead.
Another awesome and exciting volume! I still cracked up everytime Xylo wondered why Rhyno was such a weird character. I think it's good to not always have only Xylo's POV but instead alternating it with a third person narrative. We can learn things that Xylo has not known, and see how he handles things even without knowing those things. For instance, we learn about Norgalle in this volume, which explains his strange personality, or should we say, personalities? It makes me curios about how the others will react when they know about this later.
