### Summary
The community is overwhelmingly convinced that Jean and Adele are related, with the prevailing theory being that he is a descendant of the hero Hooxenlite’s son, making them distant cousins. Readers point to his red hair, which matches Hooxenlite's, and his nascent supernatural abilities as compelling evidence, a twist that would reframe his protective feelings as familial rather than romantic. This speculation directly informs the chapter's central conflict: Adele's choice of a companion for her quest to the sixth monolith. A fairy has warned her against taking Hexion, whose demonic curse could be dangerously provoked, leading many fans to criticize Adele's stubborn insistence on bringing him as a sign of unhealthy dependency. This narrative choice has polarized the audience; while some urge her to listen to reason and travel with Jean, a vocal contingent expresses growing frustration with the main couple's prolonged separation. These readers are becoming bored with the pacing, dismissing Jean's increased screen time as unwanted "2nd ML" filler and threatening to drop the series until Hexion returns to the forefront. Conversely, other fans defend the plot's complexity, arguing that the story is more than just its central romance.
