## Chapter
- number: 44
- release_date: 2025-03-12

### Summary
The current chapter contains no narrative progression, instead consisting of a meta-announcement from the uploader, Manga01. This message communicates a decision to halt or take a break from uploading the series, citing frustration with a competing fan translation group that is releasing chapters of the same officially licensed work. The reader comments confirm that this announcement is the chapter's sole content, sparking a community-wide debate that overshadows the story's plot. The reaction is divided: some readers express confusion, sadness, and loyalty to the uploader, promising to wait for their return. Others defend the existence of fan translations, citing issues of cost and accessibility, and criticize the uploader for their public announcement. The overall focus shifts entirely away from the fictional cliffhanger involving Bayan, Dhan, and the Royal Physician, and onto the real-world conflict and ethics surrounding official versus fan-made scanlations.
