Hey everyone!

I just want to take a moment to thank every single one of you for the amazing support during the Eighth Realm Arc (Chapters 18–27). It’s been such an intense ride—from stepping into the dragons’ domain, to tournaments that tested friendships, to betrayals that shook Zero’s world. Writing these chapters has been a blast, and knowing you all are here reading, theorizing, and sharing your thoughts makes it all the more meaningful.

Now, I’m taking a short break to rest, recharge, and plan out what’s next. The upcoming arc, which will cover Chapters 28 through 38, is already shaping up to be huge. I’m really excited about the new places we’ll explore, the challenges Zero will face, and some surprises I hope will keep you on the edge of your seat. It’s a fresh chapter for the story and for the characters—one that will push everyone to grow in ways they never expected.

During this break, I encourage you to revisit your favorite moments from the Eighth Realm—maybe catch details you missed or piece together hints for what’s coming. It’s always fun to dig back in with fresh eyes. And if you’re just joining us or need to catch up, now’s a great time!

I’m so grateful for all your comments, likes, and shares—they inspire me every day. This story means the world to me, and I’m thrilled to be able to share it with such an amazing community.

Thanks again for being here and for being part of Zero’s journey. I can’t wait to jump back into the next arc soon, with even more action, emotion, and world-building ahead.

Until then, take care, enjoy the story, and stay tuned!
