The Return of the 8th Class Mage — Chapter 61

Whew, talk about a chapter that stirred up a storm! Readers are absolutely reeling from **The Return of the 8th Class Mage, Chapter 61**, and it’s all thanks to one heartbreaking, head-scratching moment: the death of Sir Paul. 😭

While many are genuinely heartbroken ("NOOOO Vice Captainn 😭," "I'm actually crying 😭 rn"), the overwhelming sentiment is one of pure frustration and disappointment. Why, oh why, did Paul have to die in such a "stupid" and "disappointing" way? 💀 Readers are fuming that he took the blame, effectively clearing the real culprits and throwing the crown prince's progress, especially for commoner knights, back decades. Many feel his dying wish to "not bother clearing his name" was a "bullshit" move that made him a "clown" rather than a loyal hero. 🤦‍♀️

Despite the anger at the plot's logic, the pain of losing the character is real for many. A few empathetic souls tried to defend Paul, noting he was on the brink of death anyway, but even they admit his last words were questionable. Ultimately, readers are left with a mix of grief and a burning desire for the villains to pay dearly for Paul’s sacrifice. 💔
