that should hopefully happen in the next chapter. the carnation children talk was during the initiation ceremony
not just in this chapter actually, there's so much omitted details but nothing doesn't really change much, i do wish it won't be like this for argio
the manwha illustration is adorable, yes, but it does omit many aspect of the story that i like. the world building, the chairman characterization, even the hyper focused highlight of the food making (i'm sure that's one of the author hobby, i mean how can a non-foodie describe it that detailed). if i'm the novel author i'd be a bit heartbroken to see my work shaved this much. it kinda does the job tho to deliver the essence
i read the novel when i saw someone say some lore was omitted from this particular chapter, and i think it was about the carnation children. and yeah, it was sad that they decided to omit that bit of world-building, because that definitely would've added to how their society progressed after gio went in the painting. hopefully, they do bring it up in future chapters, cause i think the carnation children would become beneficial for plot purposes.
**spoilers**
and just thinking about the irony of the carnation children already abandoned in the novel, but choosing to not include their spotlight in this visual chapter is definitely a choice.
