Great story so far, I just hope Yua doesn't get together with Alto (which is most likely going to happen). Harem route aside I've always had a soft spot for childhood friend type romances, and for MC to mostly likely come back and just make her fall in love again and NTR Alto. I feel an AOT ending is come for the beginning of ch4(which isn't a bad thing per say but anyone who finished AOT knows that the story ended while this story is continuing). Side note even after the fireworks why didn't she just confess I feel like a lot of the choices you can make show a clear sign a romantic interest.
What no, devs confirm no NTR, and in those story it's not rare for waiting for partner for a few decades

I'm not sure why so many seem to think a 10 year timeskip is going to have the love interests paired up with others. It's like they didn't pay attention when it's mentioned his master at the sect is a 100+ year old virgin. Or that the demon princess is a 400+ year old virgin.

These are people that live for centuries, not decades. 10 years isn't much at all in their timescale.

Still feel bad for Yua. That's 10 years of thinking she killed her best friend. She is not going to be a happy person.

I don't think they are going to find someone else. I believe they established the sect is mostly female, but 10 years is a long time for someone that was 18-24. Not everyone was 100+ years old with a ton of life experience. I do feel bad for Yua, and MC. They missed out on a lot of time together considering their age. But plenty of time left unless MC dies at the end or another character gets killed off...

They wont get with anyone else but the MC. The absolute MOST I can see the Developer doing is having a marriage tournament for Serena were the winner gets her hand, and the MC joins it to get officially engaged to her. Otherwise we will see most of the girls just wait for the MC as they aren't really interested in men at all at this point.

Like I said, my concern isn't around them finding someone else. According to their knowledge Mc is dead, gone, dissolved, snapped from existence. I don't see them "waiting" for MC. Yua maybe, but I feel most would grieve and move on from his death within those ten years.

Like I could obviously be wrong, I am not the one writing this nor do I have an insight into what the dev is planning, I just doubt the MC will come back and things will pick up where they left off. Which means, getting to know a lot of the characters again, seeing how they changed over the 10 years (at least the younger ones) and brushing up on current events and what happened after. It just feels like a reset for the world building and character growth. Like we spent the first 2 chapters learning about the world and whatnot and now we are going to have to do it again. Which isn't necessarily bad but I feel like it will take an entire update to get us up to date and that's like a years time for AVNs.

This is just my concern though. I mean when I went to my ten year high school reunion, a lot of people changed quite a bit lol so it is weird to jump 10 years and not expect characters that I liked will have changed, or moved on, or whatever. I get that they will more than likely won't, I understand ppls reasoning. But its like my left and right sides of my brain have two thoughts about it. One is trying to suspend disbelief and the other is trying to be all logical.

All I can do is wait and see, which I am, but I will still comment on it.

Imo thats awesome.

Could the avn (from the relationship aspect at least) just start at this point? Probably yes.

But imo it gives the whole thing way more deepth that we will know meet the LI's again instead of for the first time. Like this the MC at least has some valuable history with a lot of the girls which can be great setups for later plots and developments.

It makes the whole project more ambitious

Of course some will change over 10 years. But that doesn't mean anyone will be hooking up during that time. Aside from it being a cultivation story where a decade long training arc is super common the dev himself says this about NTR (which any of the love interests hooking up with someone else during the time away would be).

Not a fan of NTR myself. So don't worry!
There you have it from DuskDuck himself.

Pretty sure all the Lis will wait for the MC or even if they're not "waiting" won't go find someone else. The Dev has been pretty clear since the start that there won't be any NTR (and don't bother with - "well if he's dead it's not NTR because if the Dev is anti-NTR he's not going to slip it in on a technicality.)

Also worth remembering that while some of these women are regular humans, some are essentially immortal and 10 years to them is nothing. It would be like "I loved him but then he died so I went to have a cup of tea, but before the water boiled I got really horny and ..."

I literally made a point to make it clear I am not talking about the girls hooking up. I don't know why ppl respond saying no ntr would happen, unless you are just putting it there for forum readers to see.

When I put move on from his death, I meant just that. They processed and moved past their loss and they will take a bit to accept that he is back and might be too busy with what they are doing. Though they will show up when needed. Like mass effect 2 with ashely, kaiden, liara, and wrex all having their own shit to do and what not.

Yeah I feel like maybe it would have been better to do it further down the line, after some more of the relationships were built up. It feels too fast for me. And I don't have an issue with time jumps, I guess I just feel that doing it with this medium (VN) might take too much time or require a major exposition dump. I worry about spending all of next update being reintroduced is all...

But I am also just not use to this kind of story telling.

I doubt it will be an issue, and I got enough faith in the Dev to pull it off. though It would have been better if it happened at the beginning of next update so we didn't have to wait 5 months to learn how it turns out.

The mc is really damn weak right now, as illustrated by how badly he got his ass whooped and only won with a goddess powerup. And even then the powerup was too much for him to handle, which seriously fucked him up. A training arc needs to happen, and in cultivation stories a serious training arc is years.

At the pace the bad guys are coming for him he can't afford to goof around and build relationships. He's gotta get stronger as fast as he can. The dev could have slowed the pace of that stuff and spent more time building relationships but that clearly isn't the story he wants to tell. This is a story driven avn, not a relationship driven one. And I for one am glad they're moving the story along at a good clip. Always annoying to me when a story starts as narrative focused with a good setup then stalls for ages building relationships with little to no plot advancement.

Plus it's better to build the relationships after the long time away than before it. He got to know the girls enough that there's interest there from both sides, that's enough for now. It'd be a waste of time to build up more of the relationships, then have him gone for years only to come back and have to build them back up all over again.

Now is the perfect time for a training arc in this story.

I suspect that his reintroduction will happen fairly quickly. Everyone was pretty quick to accept that he poppped there from another dimension and was some kind of chosen one. If they didn't blink at that, they're probably not going to get too put out by his being only 'mostly dead'.

Yeah I guess I worry that him being reintroduced to the girls and learning about what has happened will take up a lot of time. But maybe he has a way of seeing what has been happening while he is training and learning.

And I agree that it is nice to have VNs that are more focused on telling a linear story then spending a bunch of time on relationships while nothing really happens.

And I didn't necessarily mean building relationships like in a slice of life, more just another chapter of say training with the sect, missions with some of the characters that haven't had as much screen time or maybe interactions with yumi, Astrid, and YanYan. But I suppose I could look at it more as chapters 1-3 was the introduction to the world, the characters, and the MC, and chapter 4 is where it really starts. And like you said, it's a good way to get a lot of training fit into 10 years, and perhaps more control.

Yeah I will just accept it. Dev clearly knows more than I do when it comes to writing a story lol It's just hard not to speculate while waiting for the next update.
