@TheSimpQueen I didn't binge, i don't remember exactly when i started but i think there where near 20 chapters, so i read it in 2-5 chapters each time i made a circle run of all my readings.

This last part for me was not only dragged a lot but compared to beofre i have seen the increased forced narration and incongruence, for example the corpse explosion was used once when normally is one of the main skills of a powerful necromanced, used well in battle.

The mage on his part shown immense power but then use it only what needed and excape with the necromancer in the end so he can come back for another bloodbath in the future, clearly a deux ex machina made for that purpose.

Lastly the only real won fight between the three happen outsceen and also take out one of the most powerful ally, how convenient.

I'd really like the author to take a break and make up a better story, he can, i know it, it just need not to fall in the easy trap of mindless bloodbath and violence.

Exactly. That's what I meant.

Happens to me too. Often when I start reading too early, things start feeling slow and boring and so I often give up. Reading weekly always breaks the flow for long arcs.

Marinating helps tho.  If it looks like a long arc, I stop reading until there are 40 some chapters accumulated. I had dropped reading this around 80ish, but then picked it up again yesterday and binged from the beginning, didn't feel too dragged and also helps one ignore the inconsistencies.

That's why I wasn't much bothered by him not using corpse explosion or why his blood suddenly wasn't acidic anymore.
I guess the clown had to survive as a plot relevant character, since he does show up in the round table meeting with interest towards the lion.

For the mage, he got trapped in a separate dimension by the MC ally mages, that's why he showed up late and then he also got a call to evacuate and it had turned into many against 1 fight, I suppose that's why he fled. I guess, his priority was to save the clown. 

Again, I'm not too bothered and just questioned the inconsistencies because I binged. I was an exciting arc tbh.
Had I read it weekly, I would've been shouting with you lol.
