Loved this moment in the novel. :)

Werewolf friends?

He is kind of the only suspect left.

Love Princess Agnes such a great friend.

So this is how the original story began.

Just so against doing this. https://i.postimg.cc/MKKDhVQ8/i.png

In his defense, they are not fighting for succession right now, they stopped that fight to go attack his student together. And it's the attack on his student that provoked him to take action.

So close to meeting the parents.

... by dying and becoming a shadow, I'm guessing. That or because he's a true sage.

People surprised he actually did what he said he was going to do.

Blowing up a bomb to kill a handful of strangers and save your own life, no way, but getting a hundred bucks to doom like a hundred, including yourself in some cases, absolutely the case.

Daisy? Yeah, Omphalos/Zenovia drawing him to where they want him.

Just needed a little time to cool her head.

Time to slay goblins.

Snu snu until she can't run off into danger again?

Their leader's totally dead, the hordes of mooks aren't a threat, to them, so much more important to focus on gaining fame and fortune.

They're going to need to charge a higher fee. Training up a whole new organisation is going to be expensive.

She's a little princess not a supervillain... but still rather anticlimactic, yes.

Good mentor.
