Here’s Chapter 499,

There is a reference in this chapter to the Tsujiki Fish Market, in case anyone is interested.
The Tsujiki Fish Market was a wholesale fish and seafood market in central Tokyo, it was the largest market of its kind in the world until it was closed in 2018, when operations moved to the newer Toyosu Market, which is now the largest wholesale fish market and largest wholesale food market in the world. This chapter originally came out in 2014 when the Tsukiji Fish Market was still around.

Here’s Chapter 498,

Daylight saving ticked over for me yesterday and I lost an hour of sleep, doesn’t feel great.
This is the price I pay for getting that extra hour of sleep 6 months ago.

Here’s Chapter 497,

Time to get more information.

Side note, League Worlds 2022 has started, and time zones have meant……watching games isn’t actually too bad for me. LCO team getting smashed day 1 and 2 feels bad though.

Here’s Chapter 496,

Cards are starting to be laid out on the table.

Here’s Chapter 495,

For anyone interested, as it’s mentioned in this chapter, a Kamaitachi (literally Sickle Weasel) is a Japanese Yokai that is said to appear on dust devils (small dust whirlwinds) and attack people with sickle like claws on both hands.

Additional note, Nakuto ain’t no simp.

Here’s Chapter 494,

We check in with our detective duo of Essetus and Nakuto, being as sneaky as can be, or at least as sneaky as two adventurers can be anyway.

Here’s Chapter 493,

Whew, four chapters in a weekend is quite a bit, still, back up to speed now, or at least I will be with the next chapter.

Here’s Chapter 492,

I will admit, I have read ahead for the rest of this arc.
It is very back loaded with a ton of stuff happening near the end, so until then, it’s going to be build up.

Here’s Chapter 491,

Finally feeling much better. I basically haven’t gotten sick in over 5 years, so being stuck in bed for a few days really was an experience I had forgotten. Two chapters today to make up for last week with the Chapter 492 releasing shortly after this one. Two chapters tomorrow as well.
