Following a new lead on Eris’s potential location, Sora’s party sets out through the Eld Republic en route to the Black Forest. Unfortunately, Rurika, Chris, and Sera’s former home is facing its own set of crises. A rash of mutated monsters threatens an important village festival, and a mysterious disaster has dried up the local reservoirs, forcing a trip through an enigmatic magical wood to find the source. What’s more, an unprecedented storm has uncovered a set of ancient ruins that seem to tie in somehow to the mysteries of spirits and elves. Through these ruins, Sora will come even closer to finding out the truth behind this world and the malevolent forces that brought him here!
Volume 6 of Isekai Walking fitted expectations, a fairly traditional isekai story with enough twists and interesting characters to keep things interesting. This time the adventures lead up to a reveal of what is going on which to some extent isn't exactly to my liking, but that might due some other series I recently read and I will see how the author will pull it off. I hope it isn't going to end too predictably. Still, for now the series is an entertaining popcorn read.
In this volume, we finally get a few answers about things lurking in the background of the story, and about a terrible injustice in the world... only for the protagonist to basically say "not my problem". I suppose it's refreshingly realist, but I do hope that we get drawn more into the major conflict in the next volume.
