Edit:
I really liked this chapter. Looks like Ikfes is the son of one of the lances of betrayal... so is he the son we were talking about some chapters ago? Or is he somehow Ascheriit's son considering that they look similar, are great with swords, and now he was handed Ascheriit's own sword.

Ascherit a father? Somehow I can't imagine it. He is probably the son we suspected he was a few chapters ago.
Peace.
That is the only thing I liked about this chapter. The rest of it was rather predictable and thus very boring. The sword however could be a potential power-up for Koinzell when he and Ikfes inevitably meet again. I'm hoping that the Fairy Stone Blade will resonate with Koinzell's own fairy blood and allow him to use his real powers in the absence of moonlight. At the very least he should no longer be reduced to just being a little Elfen boy waving a sword around.Originally Posted by Munsu
Btw there is absolutely no doubt that Ikfes is Kfer's son, even their names are similar. It doesn't seem like Ascherit ever had the opportunity to father a child, and if indeed Ikfes was his son I doubt there would be all this doubt about him possibly being able to achieve Ascherit's level.
- Also it seems like a given that when they inevitably fight again Koinzell with find out about Ikfes' background and K will reveal his identity to Ikfes who will either join him at that point or attempt to avenge his father on his own by killing Glen.

Maybe, but don't you think Ikfes seemed like a rather ill natural fellow? He might or might not end up believing Koinzell, but in either case I wouldn't put it past him to still try to slay Koinzell simply in order to appear even more legendary and worth of the blademaster title. He didn't look and sound like an overly ethical or honourable dude to me, and in the end might not give a shit about redeeming his father's honour as long as he himself can gain his own fame.
But who knows. It was an interesting chapter in any case. Koinzell should get busy now that there's the whole Imperial army standing against him...
I think Ikfes acts like that because he was raised to believe that his father was a lance of betrayal. If he learns the truth, he may change his ways and side with Koinzell, realizing that his father would have wished it so. What Koinzell needs to do in order for that to happen is to have a close match with Ikfes, beating him just barely, so that the pride issue between them will be less important. It may also work if he beats him absolutely without breaking a sweat, maybe using his fairy tentacles.
Peace.
Not terribly surprising there would be an ambush waiting. Kind of strange Koinzell didn't think of it, considering he's hunting the very group of people who knew of the existence of the tunnel. Still, I can't see some nameless death squad managing to offer too much resistance against him. But it's still no good for him that they already verified his location.

Well, considering that the lances are the only ones that knew about the tunnel, and they think that everyone that knows about the tunnel besides them are dead, no reason to assume that there'll be an ambush there. Still more caution should've been had, and surely that he knows that the lances know about it, prepare for the possibility of the lances protecting all the paths. And yeah, I don't think there'll be much resistance there... we'll see what happens now. Reading 72 now.
Edit: Meh, 72 was more of a setup of how "great and powerful and elite" this team is, more than anything. Nothing happened.

I bet Lebelont's blundering forces will break Glenn's forces' careful maneuvers allowing Koinzell and Ato to slip through. Isn't that what's supposed to happen in this kind of a situation?
Still, I have to say I didn't expect them to have that much forces guarding the tunnel exit. No matter how inferior they are invidually in front of Koinzell, they surely have the numbers to compensate that factor.
I'm with you. I thought this was a small unit for "just in case" reasons. What's the point of a secret passage then?
I think I've been reading this entire manga just so i could see this chapter. Definitely did not expect for this to happen so early though.
Wow is all I can say to that. That was completely unexpected. That can't possibly be it right?

Holy shit.... do I need to say anything else? Same response I had for Vinland Saga.
Holy shit. This is like what happened in Vinland Sa... Oh you beat me to it.
I think Glenn is still alive. It would be way too anticlimactic for Glenn to die in such a manner.
Peace.
Shinta is right, it would be such a cope out if he was gone this early after all that time they spent in this manga building him up as the main antagonist.

Haha. That was certainly unexpected. Glenn didn't look like a man, who would go down so easily. I'm half expecting this to be only some plot of his, maybe to make Koinzell think he's dead. The whole organized resistance was revolving around Glenn, so if he's really dead, the rest of the heroes are more or less on their own. That would be just as anticlimactic as Glenn really dying so easily and so early.
In the end this series seemed to be all about Koinzell defeating the heroes, so it's hard to see that would be brushed aside for some other plot.
oh shit I just read this entire manga in a few days because it was so good
So only 8 volumes are out so far? Man, I really do feel a Berserk (sword + demons + brutal killing) plus Elfen Lied (pointy ears + sex) kind of combo going on here. Although I'm not too much of a fan of Koinzell + Ato relationship / sex here, its better than nothing. I'd still prefer Koinzell + Altea relation
And I doubt Glenn is dead, he might not be the strongest but he's sure strong enough to outlive one simple slash from Koinzell when worthless villians have been able to endure at least 3

This series just dropped a few notches in my book. If we are to believe that Glenn is really dead and Lebelont is going to step us as the series' main antagonists then I see no reason to continue reading this. The only way this series could possibly redeem itself is if at some point in the near future the seven heroes turn out to simply be the precursors to some other great villain, similar to what the fake lances of betrayal were in the beginning of the series and I'm not sure if even that would make a difference.
