This Volume 7 ends in a cliffhanger. It is the first time that one of the volumes of this Web novel and Light Novel Series ends like this. Volume 7 was first published in 2019, in English translated in April 2022. (Three years behind). Volume 7 has 200+ pages and 24 chapters (almost twice as much as the previous chapter average) and a side story.
Rina (the reincarnated earthling) met the Dwarven crew that Luciel has (Dhoran, Pola,
and Lycian,) Hopefully, with RIna's vision, and the Dwarven/Elven skills and abilities, their inventions and creations will skyrocket and help to solve the Dungeon Core problems, the monster attacks and the attacks from the Empire.
A lot of valuable information was given by the Thunder Dragon in this 7th Volume. The way to "close down" a Dungeon created by the Dungeon Lord (Wicked One). That Luciel needs to free eight (8) Dragons and four are still being imprisoned at the end of this volume 7. The Dragons of “Light, dark, water, and wind." The Thunder Dragon also explains that: "There are six great spirits in total as well. You will have need of them on the path to sagehood.” When explaining what Luciel needed to do to be able to ward off the evil and dangers to this alternate reality world called Galdardia.
The Thunder Dragon urges Luciel to fly to the Labyrinth of Wiles on the border of Luburk
and Grandol The Thunder Dragon said: The Sworn is in danger. Hurry!” The dragon’s voice keened in my head painfully. It was frantic, like a father worried about his family.“
The Thunder Dragon ends his urgent message to Luciel with this: "Luciel, oh holiest of clerics, I send you with our hopes for the world. Its very balance rests in your hands,” the dragon boomed. “And so the promise is fulfilled... La...fjilu...na...”
Volume 8 is supposed to be published on June, 2nd. 2022, so for me it is a month and 4-5 days wait to read what will happen.

Luciel is finally making his way back to the Holy City. Although he hasn't been gone long, he's accomplished much---but so much remains for him to do. Catherine is struggling with her new responsibilities over the knights. Estia has her ties to the spirits, and Luciel is forced to confront some of his own bonds.
This volume feels like it's more about Catherine than Luciel. The wavering confidence doesn't seem to suit the woman we saw in earlier volumes, but I suppose it's not a bad angle overall. Luciel's been pretty laid back most of the time (except for his self-imposed "training for survival"), so having Catherine struggling to exert the proper authority over a frankly pathetic band of knights helps change things up. In one sense, the struggle is more about her perception, but in others it's a direct challenge to develop her leadership skills.
I was less than thrilled with the pope announcing she controls who Luciel is "fated to be with." I like this series with no romance. But if it has to go there, fated partners are about the worst way I can think of to make it happen. It allows Luciel to be entirely passive in directing his own life. And whenever that "fated partner" shows up, she's likely to instantly love him.
I did like Luciel's interactions with the adventurers. That's always been the strongest part of this series. Merratoni is where he's got his roots, and it's about time Luciel did some actual adventurer-like stuff around that town.
Overall this is still a fairly strong volume. There are plenty of hints dropped for future volumes, and a few questions answered. I rate this book Recommended.

Luciel returns to the Holy City. Here he deals with old friends, struggling with themselves and their jobs, and new ones, Estia, whose powers and backgrounds are a bit odd. In the process he learns a bit more on what is going on especially in regards to the Empire.
It is an enjoyable volume in which Luciel's whining and lack of self-awareness is not as dominant with a decent amount of plot progress and character development (mostly of important side characters). There is a decent amount of action in this volume, although much like the rest of the series it is mostly short and to the point which I don't mind (I tend to find long drawn out fights boring), I have seen reviewers in the past complain about it.
Besides my dislike of the MC at times, I do wonder why Luciel just happens to come across an Empire plot at exactly the right time in the middle of nowhere. Granted, he has the luck ability, but this went a bit beyond that IMO, but we might get a decent explanation on this one. Similarly, while I am not reading this for the litRPG elements, the complete lack of stats (especially what the blessings he gathers do), what exactly classes do and his inability to spend the skill points he has earned, are getting a bit irritating. Either add stats or don't, but if you do, don't suddenly stop. It ended at somewhat of a cliffhanger, but not a very bad one to be honest.
Still, it was an entertaining enough read. Not the best volume in the series, but certainly not the worst.

En este tomo se trata un poco más acerca de política y otros tipos de magia que aún son raros. Finaliza con el regreso a Merratoni y algunos encuentros con “demonios”
Continúa dando algunas enseñanzas acerca de trabajo en equipo, liderazgo y delegación de responsabilidades. Muy ad-hoc, cuando explica algo lo hace como alguien que trabaja de 9 a 5 en una oficina

I just amazed
I’m liking the storyline. No unnecessary stuff or fillers. The story has a good flow. This volume had a lot of answers to some of my previous questions. Luciel is just to amazing. He has so much talent and no ego to go with it. I’m honestly waiting for the mock battle between his two masters.

Not bad
It was another good addition to the series. The MC is the big draw here as always. He wants a normal life and even confronts someone about it only to get a less than satisfactory answer. Can't wait for the next one.

Best in the series so far
Series amount of action and a lot of relationship building. I felt last was more or less introduction to characters, necessary intro sure but this book really compounds on that. It almost felt like a longer book but it wasn't size wise.

Great series
I'm eager to see how they will transition this into an anime! It's a great story and the plot just keeps you twisting and wondering

The Holy City arcs are always boring. They are filled with nothing but greedy healers and training.
