This Volume has us following the ogre that’s been on a rampage since the last Volume, as well as our usual Demon Lord party. They’ve finally made it to the demon territory, much to the surprise of Sophia and White. Why surprise? Well, it seems the demon territory isn’t that different from the human ones.
White and Sophia were expecting things to look like they do in the media back on Earth, but if anything, it’s just as lovely, if not more so than where they’ve stayed in the human countries. Of course that would come as a surprise. Not only that, but it seems that not everyone in the demon territory is onboard with the Demon Lord’s plan to go to war with the humans. That leads to some drama and behind the scenes maneuverings that you wouldn’t expect. I was under the impression that the return of the Demon Lord would be met with fanfare and acceptance, not the veiled hostility and apprehension we get.
On top of that, the orge who’s been wreaking havoc doesn’t seem to be slowing down at all. If anything, he’s been growing stronger the more he’s been raging. That leads to another confrontation between him, White and Sophia. And man is it an explosive one!
We see White start to learn more about her powers and how to control them now that she’s a god. that’s fun, as is seeing how much stronger Sophia’s becoming. Granted, we do have the benefit of knowing how OP they are in the future but the journey there is entertaining. I always enjoy seeing how strong people get their overwhelming strength. It’s why White’s journey has been such a blast to be on!
we learn more about the orge, and why he is the way he is. We get to see it from his perspective, which makes his backstory that much harder to swallow. Seriously, the guy can’t catch a break!
We also get to meet D, the “evil god” that’s basically behind everything that’s going on. And I do mean actually meet. We’ve “heard” her voice through the smartphone that appears every now and then, but White actually makes the journey to meet D in person, and man oh man are the revelations from that meeting crazy. I won’t say any more than that so as not to spoil anything, but things sure have gotten complicated.
All in all, this was a great Volume, that sets up things moving forward, and even though we know where they ultimately lead, there’s no disputing the fact that the journey to the destination will be a crazy one to say the least.
