Real page turner

This one is really good. A few very interesting twists and a hero you would never expect. This is one of the better books in the series in my opinion, not that any of them aren't good.

A great star for the new arc.

Although the beginning of this volume starts slowly with heartwarming scenes, the travel of so many characters and the reunion with old acquaintances, the pace starts picking up with the introduction of a new threat in the form of Saint Erica. A great cliffhanger at the end, great characters and nice writing makes this serie so great.

This light novel isn't going anywhere. The author has combined reincarnated beings and teleported summoned beings into a hell-like alternate reality world. The antagonists and corrupt and depraved nobles make this world unbearable for the inhabitants of this world. The nobles and Kingdoms seek to manipulate, breed and enslave the "heroes" and "other-Worlders" that arrive and are summoned to this hellish world.
The weak in this world, are physically and emotionally abused, enslaved and tortured during their life times. The "heroes" and "other-worlders" really do not try to change the status quo of this hell. There are supposed to be 7 Gods that "summon" through their "noble" representatives, "heroes" but author has not defined a role or purpose for these 6-7 teleported-summoned people from another world.
The latest "heroine" Saint Erica, mentioned by the author is a "revolutionist" that is trying to get rid of the nobles for the benefit of its people. Because the author promotes the antagonists and makes them stronger, this "new heroine" presents herself with the evil nobles and antagonists in this series first.
Because "heroes" don't have a mission-purpose or roles. They do not have training and only have a basic "weapon" and skills they brought from their original worlds. This makes their lives in this world monotonous and boring. Because they wish to return to Earth, the "heroes" really don't get involved in the issues of this hellish world. The corrupt and depraved nobles seek to tie down and manipulate the "heroes" "summoned" by having marriage arrangements with them.
Even though author makes main character Rio (Haruto) reluctant to get involved, non-commital in everything he does, and have little or no ambitions (no job, no income, no purpose, etc.) The Dimarc, Beltrum and Spirit Folk Kingdoms, all, seek to tie down, Rio by proposing "princesses" and consorts and closeness with their daughters and attendants. Since Rio is reluctant to compromise, his "harem" is contradictory. It is like a eunuch at a girl's marriage club.
Light novel is not going anywhere. Focuses in eating, conversations and relationships between retinue and sometimes training.
The evil antagonists rule, they are part of the Proxia Empire but no one in this novel is seeking to destroy them. No one except maybe Erica, is trying to improve this hellish alternative reality world.
