The Return of the Iron-blood Sword Hound

A brief tale, my inaugural one. This was truly excellent overall! There's profound significance in each encounter, and I genuinely empathized with the character by the end. I wholeheartedly recommend setting aside a few minutes to read it. It offers a little perspective on various individuals.  
Overall, I'm genuinely glad I read this :)<p>

Have you ever yearned to fly away, leaving behind your ordinary life and sorrowful past?<br /><br />Imagine a girl who flutters freely, embraced by nature. She understands the languages of animals and plants, and with a gust of wind, she sweeps away her insecurities. She has always sought a nest, but the void of not having a place to return to is filled with a sense of freedom.<br /><br />It's remarkable how a one-shot manhwa that placed third in an amateur contest can be more insightful than some highly acclaimed manga spanning thousands of pages. This claim might seem unfounded if prejudice clouds the initial impression of simplicity conveyed by the drawings and youthful features. However, it is precisely this childlike quality that lends the work its profundity.<br /><br />Lewis Carroll’s Alice is often viewed as a childish tale—largely due to Disney's adaptation. Yet, it serves as a wellspring of inspiration for numerous artists, from poets to CLAMP, as it transforms apparent nonsense into extreme creativity and even political undertones. A similar observation applies here to some extent.<br /><br />The artwork cannot be described as exceptional. It reflects the straightforward style typical of a beginner's piece, yet it aligns perfectly with the story's initially gentle tone: intricate art would clash with this narrative's intent. You may feel transported to those moments when you read or heard stories from your parents—tales you knew were fictional but enjoyed nonetheless. And within this seemingly inconsequential nature, there are elements to ponder.<br /><br />The central human character is a girl navigating her place in a vast landscape. Though other characters may not be human in form, they possess human hearts: a bird safeguarding its offspring and future, and a tree grieving the loss of its companion over time, now solitary in the cold winter, accompany this girl in her boundless world.<br /><br />Despite these deceptive simplicities, complexity intrudes upon this unassuming narrative like the wind carrying the girl away as the story nears its end. This is not a tale that will take long to read, but it will require much reflection.

The narrative is rather endearing and evokes sympathy for the protagonist. The conclusion is particularly intriguing as it leaves the reader pondering her motivations for choosing to let herself drift away from all her problems. However, I believe that giving the tree the ability to speak tips the story into slightly excessive territory, especially since she doesn't converse with any other non-human entities. Her interactions are limited to a bird and a young child, so the talking tree feels somewhat out of place. Moreover, the tree's facial design and art style could be described as uninspired. The name also seems nonsensical, as there's no explanation provided regarding the significance of "100 days." It turns out to just be a dream she experiences.  

The visuals are generally unremarkable but feature some well-executed details in certain scenes. This places the artwork on the upper end of average.  

Despite its shortcomings, I still think the story could have used a bit more depth, yet it remains enjoyable and worth reading.

Not a problem, it's more of a casual hook up...it's fine. He is loyal only to his wife.

I came from reading the manhwa and what chapter does season 2 start?

Chapter 126

The story has a lot of potential and I absolutely love it. HOWEVER, as the story progresses, the author made a lot of mistakes along the way: plot holes, a strange naming sense, poor world-building (lacks originality), arcs that drag on because the MC needs to collect his Pokémon (females), and obviously dubious and unsettling romance.

There are many things I strongly disagree with, especially the Harem— (In fact, it would give more personality to the character if he only ended up with one person, but that's just me and my strong desire to ship Camus with Vikir.) However, most of you will probably agree that the author should have stick with just two female leads, because when Dolores and Sinclaire were introduced, the first two, Camus and Aiyen, got less screen time. This is disappointing since we had already built a strong attachment to them but the author basically forgot about them.

Sadly couldn't get far due to the MTL and his name flip-flopping from Vikir to Bikir repeatedly within chapters.
