## Chapter
- number: 76
- release_date: 2025-05-14

### Summary
The latest chapter confirms a major fan theory: the demonic entity Bael has targeted Hexion as its next vessel, with the petrification curse revealed as a grooming process for possession. This has ignited reader speculation, with many concluding that the current Emperor, already controlled by Bael, has been orchestrating Hexion's torment to prepare him as a superior new host, bypassing his own children. While many readers feel vindicated by this development, a growing sentiment of frustration is evident regarding the plot's pacing. Several commenters criticized the narrative as "video gamey" and repetitive, citing a seemingly endless loop of entering the forest to find monoliths that stalls meaningful progress. This has led some to drop the series, with one reader noting that the plot felt stagnant even after skipping 40 chapters. Alongside the central conflict, confusion persists regarding the lineage of Adele and Jean, with theories circulating that they could be siblings or cousins due to the time-altering properties of the forest. The chapter thus leaves the audience divided between excitement over the confirmed conspiracy and fatigue with the story's execution.
