A slight be on the late side, but I still manage to get it in at a decent time. Yuki and Vangelis' fight has been trying at times, but I'm feeling better about it after I finished the chapter. So Chapter 191 is now available! The fighting continues and intensifies with them. I still keeping things a little on the unexplained side. Some of it can be figured out if you're paying attention. But I will be answering things in a more direct way in the next chapter.
I did another a more subtle flashback this time around. I really like how they worked out in the past. This one is even more subtle than others. It is also completely one sided with no actual feedback from Vangelis until the very end. In the beginning it is admittedly a little confusing, but I wanted it to work with the scene. Then after a couple of them you're supposed to pick up on what's going on. Then it is up the reader to piece together Vangelis past. He doesn't have a dramatic one or a sympathetic one, but he does have a past like everyone else. He's not one to heavily dwell on it either. It shaped him and so with fighting Yuki it brings it out. So he has flashes of things and it comes out like this. I think it works to fit the type of character that he is. So I really like it, but it is fun to make the reader work for the answer sometimes.
As I said before Yuki has been doing somethings that are clearly explained. He's been getting the edge on Vangelis in a few of the engagements. Most times Vangelis has figured it out pretty quickly. The guy is highly intelligent and adaptive. He is skilled and knowledgeable in the use of the powers as well. He has more than a few things in common with Yuki. So when Yuki starts doing things different he usually notices and lets the reader in on it. The fact that he hasn't figured it out means Yuki is doing something that Vangelis is having trouble understanding. Vangelis will understand it in the next chapter, but not before Yuki uses it to his advantage.
It is a going to be big drag out climax with the two forces clashing in a final showdown. It's going to be fun.
Enjoy!
