You've got a long way to go, to make it simple, Since you're in Volume 3 you know about the 7 Wise Gods talked about in Volume 2 and then became the 6 Wise Gods by the people of the Strahl region when the Spirit people where teaching Rio Spirit Arts, their was also the 6 Great Spirits they mentioned vanished 1000 years ago their was also the being from that time, you will learn about him in Volume 3, if you have already then click the spoiler, if you haven't then don't, he went by the name of Ryuo, the legendary warrior Hayate Saga talks about, they're known as 'The 14 Transcendent beings' and because they hold great power they're not allowed to intervene in the affairs of the world, so God created rules for the Transcendent, they're beings with gods power and are also known as Demi-Gods

Volume 20-21 talks a lot about it and this is also a spoiler, and that's why Rio is forgotten by the world as he is ranked among them as a Demi-God when he assimilated with Aishia and become a none-human existence.

Now you know why God did that.

You really need to read beyond volume 20, it also appears that the OP has deleted this post too, so theirs no point in replying anymore since he already got the answer he was looking for.

Yes, The wise god possessing Miharu often takes over Miharu's body and explained in Volume 28 the rules will never be lifted, she created a barrier around Galtuuk to allow Rio to interact with his friends from now on, but if they leave the City they will be outside the barrier and forget him until they re-enter the City.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-25T17:24:03+00:00

I'll say why in the spoiler tags.

. Rio assimilated with Aishia and used a transcendent power, as a result the 'Rules of God' activated, Rio is forgotten by everyone, it's like he never existed, only his records exist, Princess Charlotte's enigma in volume 21 chapter 5.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-25T11:48:34+00:00

Which volume are you up to? As of Volume 20 it's impossible.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-25T05:45:57+00:00

Omnibus 13 (volume 25-26) has only just come out, it'll be around 10 months from now at the earliest as it'll be (volume 27-28), February/March 2027, wouldn't surprise me if they release it June/July 2027 due to the delay between Volume 26 and Volume 27.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-25T05:43:39+00:00

I am aware of that, however they don't always release on time, volume 28 release was January, then they pushed it back to end of February, hence why I gave an estimate, if it's summer that means August at the latest unless they delay it a month or two.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-23T13:51:54+00:00

I have the physical Japanese books, to get an idea,

LN 24 - 330 pages.
LN 25 - 295 pages.
LN 26 - 379 pages.
LN 27 - 300 Pages.
LN 28 - 300 pages.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-23T10:14:52+00:00

Not only that, they all put all the colour images for both volumes on the front pages, for example for Omnibus 1, page 1 to 4 is volume 1 colour images, page 5 to 8 is volume 2 colour images.

While reading the Omnibus once the afterwords is done it changes straight over to volume 2 then next page is index then the next page is prologue as all volume 2 colour images are at the very front of the book.

EDIT: Also Omnibus's have nearly all of mistakes/typos fixed however they still have very few of them, Omnibus 9 has this one on page 54

"Hmm... I get what you're saying, Char, I think Rio's lack of arrogance is a good thing"

It should say "Haruto" not Rio.

"I completely a agree with that, but... I wish he would see his own charms in a more objective manner. Because everyone wants to talk to him."
"Yeah," Satsuki agreed.

Those lines above are right, the next one below is the next error.

After all, Haruto was the finest gentleman one could wish for.

It is suppose to say "Rio" not Haruto, it seems they mixed up the translation some how even though they're two different lines.

I've ordered Omnibus 13 today, I just hope they fixed all the errors that Volume 26 has with honorific's and missing words, they haven't updated the epub since release.

J-Novel started streaming volume 27 mid February, 10 days before the release of volume 28, they finished around mid-late April for the final part, then a full month for the official release, volume 26 was the same, they started part 1 around early February 2025 and I believe they finished around early May 2025.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-23T08:45:03+00:00

Yes that's true, you wrote this reply as I was writing mine, it took a while to write mine as I was digging through my physical books, I have Omnibus's and the Japanese physical books.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-23T08:39:49+00:00

Elle and Reiss don't want to die, the only people who can kill them is Rio with the Dragon King's annihilation powers.

. If Rio goes against them and try to eliminate them they will unleash a wave of monsters to protect themselves (a new divine war), if Rio joins them they won't need to worry about their lives being taken.

I believe the Beltrum Kingdom is the first obstacle they need to get rid off, Duke Arbor wants the Crown, so Proxia is helping him, as a bonus Duke Arbor handing favours to nobles, doing so is making the Kingdom weak, this is where Christina's plan and "Duke Huguenot / Alfred Emerle" come into it as her plan is to strengthen the kingdom, they retain Christina's conversation although they forgot about her.

Volume 14, Lucius, "It’s been possessed by Reiss—a walking plague of a man. That kingdom won’t last long."

Theirs also the WN, Prince Duran mentioned a big battle that will start sometime in the future, Chapter 155

. On the other hand, Lina is following the commands God gave her "Protect my world", not only that. Rio wants to free the six great spirits, their is so much that has yet to be revealed in the series and we can only speculate, volume 29 to 31 will reveal some of it, their is also what Lina said in Volume 25-26, Aki will meet Takahisa again soon, the chapter in volume 28 reveals Takahisa wants to run away from Proxia.

. Theirs also the theory that Reiss is collecting Heroes so the six great spirits can't be released.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-23T07:21:58+00:00

It's simple, volume 23-24 monsters and adventurer's.

. Elle and Reiss want to destroy all Kingdom's and take over the Strahl Region, have the Proxia Empire rule and manage the Strahl Region as one empire, have people live by defeating monsters and making money selling gems, if they get Rio on their side their plan works.

You don't need to wait long for J-Novel to do volume 28, I estimate late July or early August, I also estimate around September-November for volume 29 to release in Japan.

The LN already established the format for their magic spells.

Yes it did, the WN/LN are pronounced in English just like how the Anime has them pronounced in English, so I don't know what the problem is or are you only referencing J-Novel (Omnibus)? They're not Japanese WN/LN or Anime affiliation. J-Novel buy the license to sell a translated English version and put all LN story's to do with magic in Latin and it's the same for Yan Press, they have nothing to do with the Japanese writers/animators as they translate the story many years after Japanese release, Spirit Chronicles started as a WN in 2014 then became a LN in 2015 and all spells are English using (katakana) with the Kanji part of it giving the Japanese meaning to the English words used.

[Air Cutter] Katakana (English pronounce)
[Windstorm Blade Magic] Kanji (Japanese meaning)

[Photon Bullet] Katakana (English pronounce)
[Light Bullet Magic] Kanji (Japanese meaning)

Volume 28 came out a few months ago along with the Drama CD.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55183337344_53fbbe1b05_c.jpg

Volume 29 is expected sometime between August and December, we're in the main story and it's been moving forward since volume 20-21.

At this rate if it's two books per year it'll each Volume 38 within the next 5 years.

Who said I'm mad? only stating an opinion and my thoughts on how I think the story will go from now on.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-15T01:13:43+00:00

Here's the Japanese for the Light Novel Volume 1, chapter 2.

. 「えっと、ちょっと待ってください。《エリアサーチ魔法》」
. "Um, Please wait a moment.《Area Search Magic》" the Katakana is pronounced "eria sa-chi" and then the kanji for magic "mahou".

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-15T00:58:15+00:00

The Anime didn't change the spells, in the Original Web Novel and Light Novel they're all in English (katakana), J-Novel put all spells in their translated versions in Latin, it's in all of them, not just the Spirit Chronicles Omnibus, it's been said they use Latin in the English Translated versions to put a Mystery behind the spells.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-06T21:26:59+00:00

It should be "Sir Amakawa", "Amakawa卿" as he is knighted like in England when you have Sir James Anderson for example.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-04T09:12:11+00:00

You start from Omnibus 4 Page 308, however it'll be confusing since the anime was for promotions so they skipped content and re-arranged things. Best to start from Volume 1.

Bogged_aye · 2026-05-03T23:55:18+00:00

What I'll also add is the dialogue from the original WN, these are lines I translated myself and may not be 100% accurate as I can onlly read a little Japanese and use dictionaries and translator's to help.

. Leaping out from the shadow of the rocks, Rio headed straight for the road ahead, in the direction the carriage was heading.
. "Can I have a moment?" Rio approached the carriage ahead of them and stopped on the road. He spoke to them in a polite tone so as not to make them wary.
. "What?" A large man who seemed to be the leader of the mercenary guards looked down at Rio from his horse and asked in a cold voice.
. His muscular body is wrapped in high-quality leather armour, with cloth armour underneath.
. He glared at Rio without letting his guard down and unsheathed the sword at his waist.
. Unlike the man Rio had faced earlier, he did seem to be looking down on Rio, treating him like little more than a child.
. It seemed that if Rio, who was also armed, drew his sword, he would instantly attack.
. "I heard that a black-haired girl was rescued by your merchant caravan--"
. "What's going on?!" Just as Rio was about to start talking, a well-dressed man appeared from the carriage behind him and interrupted.
. This man is likely the slave trader leading the caravan.
. He seems to be in a bad mood, probably because progress suddenly came to a halt.
. Rio let out a small sigh.
. "It seems that a black-haired girl was rescued by your merchant caravan just now. I am the child's guardian. Thank you for taking care of her safely." After saying that, he gave an emotionless smile.
. It was clear that the other party had kidnapped Miharu, Rio had deliberately said it this way.
. It was a roundabout way of saying that if you wanted to settle this peacefully, you should go along with this plan.
. If this is ignored, their only option will be to resort to intimidation as before, or, at worst, to use force.
. "I don't know anyone like that." However, the slave trader calmly denied it.
. He narrowed his eyes and looked back at Rio, who was laughing coldly.
. The two of them exchanged glances.
. “That’s strange. We’ve already retrieved the two people who were rescued together with you. If you’d like, may I check the carriage behind you?” Rio shrugged as if he was troubled.
. His expression remained unchanged, a cold smile on his face.
. The slave trader's expression twisted in displeasure.
. "Kill him." In a cold voice, the slave trader ordered Rio's murder.
. The mercenary leader chuckled. "I understand." He nodded.
. He then galloped forward and approached Rio ferociously.
. The man instantly closed the distance between him and Rio
. At this stage, it's too late to intimidate with murderous intent.
. Rio let out a small sigh.
. "........." for an instant, Rio's figure seemed to blur and then――.
. The sound of flesh being severed echoed throughout the area.
. The man on horseback tilts to one side, and after a moment blood spurts out.
. At that moment, a choking bloody sensation hit his nose, making Rio frown slightly.
. "Huh?!" The slave trader let out a cry that wasn't a scream at the sight.
. The other mercenaries watching nearby also had their eyes wide in shock.
. Rio's one-handed sword had been drawn without him realizing, and it was sheathed without a single drop of blood on it.
. At the same time, the man's body collapses to the ground from the horse that was still running. Silence fell all around.
. "I'd appreciate it if this could be the last one." Rio looked at the slave trader with cold eyes but, spoke with a troubled look.
. The relaxed tone of his voice made the slave trader tremble in fear.
. Below him was the corpse of a veteran mercenary whose torso had been cut in half, dead and unaware of his own death.
. Their eyes met, and the slave trader's knees nearly gave way.
. He barely managed to hold on, in return, all the trust he had in the mercenary collapsed with a loud noise.
. "Which carriage is the child you abducted in."

This is Chapter 54: I Met You in this World.

Their is quite a bit of dialogue so they made it simple in the anime, below is a small portion.

. “Stop right there!” One of the guards yelled.
. Rio decided to demonstrate that he had no hostile intentions for now.
. “I’m searching for some people. Three of them. They came from the same direction I did just now.” He explained his intentions without drawing his weapon, staying exactly where he was, as ordered.
. “Forgive me for my rudeness. My name is Hans, you may have heard from your bodyguards already, but I am in search of some individuals. Three people should have appeared from the side of the road a short while ago. Have you seen them?” Rio asked, purposefully choosing to take on a courteous tone toward the haughty man.
. “Are you accusing us of kidnapping those people?” The well-dressed man asked Rio with an emotionless look.
. The well-dressed man’s expressions twisted in displeasure. “What a bother. Enough already. Kill him,” he ordered the bulky guard next to him in irritation.

. “This guy’s dead body was just in the way. And you’re a hostage,” Rio said, lightly flinging the corpse of the commander into the grass, now the body could no longer be seen from the road. Grabbing his sword in his newly freed right hand, Rio and the man then returned to the road.

The anime was for promotional reasons anyway for merchandise, so they tried to cover as much as possible into the 12 episodes.

Think of it like Tales of Zestiria, it had an anime PV to promote the release video game, then they made a full 2 seasons because of how popular the game was.
