.... Ah, 6 pages worth of story with a cliffhanger. Yeah, I'm dropping this. This is a consistent and unfortunate story that is literally laden with cliffhangers every single chapter. Maybe 80+ chapters in or at least vary between resolution and actual plot; but no. It's been literally every single chapter and they are becoming so short now; it's like reading a newspaper comic.

@WhiteWhaleJonas I'm sorry that you and others alike are so impatient when it comes to uploaders and Authors choosing to make these like this it sucks but I'm not complaining as long as it's continuing I just go and read the hundreds of other bookmarked mangas and manhuas I have under my account until the next update.

@Anitvenomz Honestly? It's not impatient as much as story pacing. I don't feel like I am reading an actual tale as much as being dragged along for the ride. If you consistently end each chapter on a cliffhanger for the next; there is no anticipation for when you have an actual one. It's also a cheap story gimmick that brings to mind a few terrible stories I have read in the past. The other issue I have is with the actual length of the tale. It's far less like a manga or comic than an Ziggy cartoon. It takes one scene and drags it out for 6~7 pages, some of which is actually copied and pasted. So did it take artists awhile to draw it, yes. Did it take effort, probably not as much as you think. I am more mad about how this could have been a good combatant for the Tales of Demons & Gods series; but instead ended up like a watered down {heavily} version of Soul Land II.
