I thoroughly enjoyed this volume. There was way more action, world building, and new conflict arose that I didn't see coming. The new conflict was Aur's newfound wariness of Yunis, specifically her regaining her hero status, and what that would mean for him. He is clearly uncomfortable with it and knows that ending her life would be his best option, but he doesn't because he has grown slightly attached to her. Two things I like about this: One, it's an organic, realistic conflict that Aur would eventually have to deal with considering it was his decision to brainwash a hero rather than kill her. Two, his hesitance to kill her shows that despite all of the hatred and mistrust he harbors towards humans, he too is human and not immune to human emotions/attachments. It was really interesting and I enjoyed it immensely.

After Aur takes over Figuria, the rest of the volume is dedicated to world building in terms of villages, shops, and dungeon crawling. While learning about villages (what they sell, what they contain, etc) was interesting and Aur picked up another member of his harem (Nome), the dungeon crawling chapter was by far my favorite. I loved watching Farrow predict and outsmart traps as well as watching the other girls kick ass in battle. It was like watching a video game play out in a manga, and I can't say enough good things about that.

Overall, this was a good volume that had a lot of what I desire in this series: action, adventure, and conflict.
