I don't particularly care for Immanuel's part, just more insight into how truly rotten the usurpers are in their ways I suppose.
Anastasius' chapter however is a very welcome continuation to his character progression imo. I much like him connecting the dots between Ferdinand calling him to the Academy and Rozemyne's prayers there immediately but more than that I like the wall he is running into. The man is faced with the abject truth that despite being a royal in name he is not one in function. Would have liked for his PoV to continue on a bit longer but I suppose we can't have his reaction to meeting Rozemyne infused with Mestionora's Mana when we haven't even gotten to that point from her perspective.
I was hoping it would be a bit longer, so we could see Ferdinand dealing with him when retrieving the medals.
There are still 2 more releases, so I guess around 4 more side story chapters. Maybe we'll get a Ferdinand POV chapter, that'll show this. I wouldn't mind a Gervasio POV chapter, to see what's going on in his head.
