honestly I'm feeling like author is really dragging this out. idk if he's running out of ideas or what..... but that was a whole pointless chapter. there's been a lot of them lately. or at least a lot of chapters where one little thing happens and then the entire rest of the chapter is just the MCs thoughts..... reading actual plot is like pulling teeth.... I keep reading the future chapter titles to remind me something interesting is coming you just have to get past a few more pointless chapters. but that can only last me so long.
