Spoiler warning

This review may discuss plot details.

This basically works as an epilogue along with some random side stuff. It takes place some time after the ending of the original with Jinwoo trying to live as a human while being a monarch in a world where only he has powers and no one remembers him as the past events ended. There are plot elements that continue the story of what happens next and the are some elements only to serve funny or random story bits that some fans might like. That basic plot has some good resolutions to some characters but it feels like something is missing. His family is barely mentioned, pasthunters just have some dialogue or just appear to a panel only to let you know how they are. There are some fights from Jinwoo but sadly it's not enjoyable as he just beats his enemies in a panel or two so there is nothing for the reader to feel joy about, only hype with almost zero reward. I didn't like how the shadows were handled but that's up to anyone's taste.

It sets the ground for a series a sequel series that started this past month if i recall but while I don't know how they handling the new series, in the side story it feels really rushed and bad written. I can't go in details because spoilers so I will leave it at that.

I can recommend it to fans who want a bit of closure but won't satisfy many. Also I didn't know these side stories existed until today and as it's part of the plot, they could have done a better job letting people know that there was more.
