Finished part 2!

I tried playing Mizuki stellar-swirl with Odette, and it was insane!! Odette is not even built yet…
So reading her kit, you can either go skill > skill or burst > skill to get the special skill. First choice is probably faster, but the second shows the burst animation, so it has to win (if burst is available of course). But there’s no need to go skill > skill > burst.

The book is really difficult to put down…

More than halfway through now!

I usually only study event stories because they are shorter, but this time, I really want to study the AQ. It’s going to be very long, but it’s also a really cool project. I browsed the discussions with Huimou (Ash Eye? I don’t know his name in English) and added some words already, but I’m starting seriously with our meeting with Alyosha.

I’m not making a character list for this book, because there book started with like two or three names really relevant. There have been a couple more since then, but nothing that requires a character list. The main content of the book is a series of interviews, so it’s very static and the cast is very small.

I went to the Shadow Realm, and I liked it a lot. I’m not very good at this, so I couldn’t complete whatever I was supposed to do(?), but it was fun. I was not hyped at all for this feature, but it turns out being much more fun than I thought. Exactly like the rhythm game.

I continued the AQ, the story is so cool this time. Good pacing and a lot happening, the plot looks so promising too!

I usually always love Act I of any nation’s AQ, so it doesn’t necessarily means that Snezhnaya’s AQ is the best so far, but if it continues like that, it will be!

Oh, and I met Vodyanitsa, I love her!!

This book reads so easily and it’s very engrossing. If I had the paper version, and if it weren’t a buddy read, I could see myself finishing it in one sitting.

There was an NPC who kept rambling about stuff, and I felt like I knew the vocabulary but I didn’t understand a word she was saying, and so I started doubting my Chinese abilities and feeling really discouraged when Paimon said 呃…她说话好怪，我好像一句也听不懂 and we could reply 我也听不懂. What a relief…

Finished part 1 and read the first chapter of part 2.
Part 1 was a lot of setting, and it looks like part 2 will focus more on the mystery. In any case, the book is really good.

I just finished chapter 11, the story is so so good. We’re finally seeing confrontations we’ve been waiting for a long time, and overall, it’s great to see so many characters at once. The pace is really good too, it’s very suspenseful and a lot of scenes make us take side, which I like.
I haven’t liked the last event stories we had this version, but the main story of 3.x is my favourite.

Only have the free copy! Not complaining though, Alyosha was one of my favourite designs when they revealed the trailer, so I’m super happy he’s free. I’m not sure I’m going to add him to my teams all that often, but I will build him for IT.

Finally found the motivation to pick it up again and read the first chapter of the last part.
The story has so much potential, but again, why is it so short? It could be a novel in itself. A pro-establishment young woman struggling with her life, political figures and social unrest, a dark web platform where people can crowdfund bounties on people’s lives, the reappearance of character we saw in chapter 1 and haven’t seen since, how current social and political climate have affected them… everything is packed into a very small chapter. It really feels rushed and too condensed, I feel like it would have made a really good novel in itself, like many parts of the novel.

I never saw those hanzi before!!!!

The story is so so good, I really love Merel a lot. She’s my favourite character just after Charon. I can’t wait to do her story, but it’s always best to do the main story first I think.
