Hello, dear readers!
I've been swamped with work and personal commitments these past few days, and although I had planned to release Chapter 16 today, I feel that it's lacking the quality storytelling I strive for.
Since this is the first arc of three in Volume 1, I've decided to take an extra day or two to structure it properly and ensure it feels right. As a result, I won't be posting a chapter today or Tuesday. However, I'm aiming to have Chapter 16 ready by Wednesday and will post from then onward.
Thank you for your patience and understanding during this brief break! In the meantime, feel free to share any thoughts or questions you have about the story so far in the comments, and I'll make sure to reply to all of them.
Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
Thank you for reading!
