I'd say come back in three months. There are some things that the manga gotta include such as... spoiler.........
Being caught by riftan; a huge aguement; seeing yuly, garrow, heb, ursuline, Gabriel, elliot and being comforted by Ruth; meeting Agnes; meeting the scumbag who harassed maxi and insulted riftan which led to a beating; scumbag executing the normal people who got drafted; riftan along with majority of the knights (including scumbag, kuahel, serjuleu, and agness) to go to frontline; yuly and garrow forcing Maxi and themselves to be deserters; the fall of the big rock or wall thay guarded ethlene which will take a couple of chapters; maxi being carried around injured; meeting kuahel as yuly and garrow begged kuahel to save maxi; maxi waking up with a ghost at her feet; meeting agnes; people help her find her copper coin; meeting riftan; leaving with Agnes to drachium; explaining meds; meeting the king; meeting Agnes mentor; seeing the knights; meeting duke of croix which led to her finding out she lost her baby and left the knights and Agnes to go with duke of croix; abuse and maxi wallowing in despair; meeting with rossetta; maxi wanting to see riftan when she heard he was here but got taken away by croix's knights; abuse; and then.... WE GET TO SEE SOME WHOOPASSS.
So base on this.... give or take, 3-4 months.
omg im v sorry for not replying earlier tbh i forgot i made this topic skskkskskskss. i didnt expect a lot more things took place in the novel!!! i rmb someone sharing before that the abu53 will happen shortly after agnes's visit in anatol i had no idea there would be a lot more to unpack before it even begins ( 。゚Д゚。)
anyways just want to thank you for making the effort of summarizing the entire thing!! i believe this is the entire volume 1 right? and then riftan's pov and then volume 2 when maxi goes to study for 3 years? i really really hope the manhwa cover's riftan's pov as well (o´・∀・)o
I read them all. Yes, we are still in volume 1. Volume 2 is far for the manhwa bc there will be a huge incident after maxi gets brought back home, which causes her to go to nornui. At the very last chapter of volume 1, it has been swapped to hebaron's perspective. Rift pov is sad bc we see how his childhood is, get an idea of how he started being a mercenary, meeting ruth (which was funny in my opinion, as expected of ruth) and how he became a part of the remdragon.
At some point in time, the author wanted to write a short from ursurline pov on riftan, but i was told she decided not to. This infor is from YEARS ago. I lowkey hope she decides to do it tho. It has been assumed that it ended but I personally believe there are more out there. But I'm assuming on that part and keeping my hopes low.
I didn't think they end season 2 like that so it will take another 3 months now aha.

SPOILER AHEAD BUT TO THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY READ THE NOVEL PLEASE HELP ME TAT

i understand that riftan will end up saving maxi from her abusive father (and fight him if im not mistaken??) with this pace happening in the manhwa, how many chapters do you think is the abu53 going to take place? because i dont think i can read those chapters so i'll have to skip them
