The fourth Monster no Niku o Kutteitara Oui ni Tsuita Ken novel has the protagonist going undercover once again to foreign lands in search of normal food only to get foiled by his own lack of assertiveness. It additionally kicks off the conflict against his teacher’s homeland, which should be the last major obstacle toward uniting the continent.
Yongsa Pati Ttaelyeochiubnida‘s twelfth entry lines up all the pieces for the final push against the various disasters, setting a six-month timeline to take out the first of them (while also revealing that the members of the original hero party were unimaginably stupid). To be honest, at this point I’m more than a little annoyed at how certain enemies keep reappearing… and if the next novel does not feature the Apostate’s complete excision from the story I may end up dropping it.
