Meanwhile, my theory about this new Kiriki is that he’s also a reincarnation just like Gozu. And when he landed he replaced old Kiriki who didn’t want to be the priestess (they did say a few chanpters back that she ran away). Methinks he either wants to defeat the demon king OR he’s like Gozu and obsessed with the underdog, which would cause a problem when he tries to take Eve from Gozu. That’s my theory. I really do think he’s a reincarnation too. And him replacing Kiriki is the bigger reason behind a lot of the storyline deviations.
This big man-child really ran out of there when he realized it was a bomb. I bet he’s thinking something stupid like “if he’s out of the way, things will go back to how they were” like Lomonosov won’t literally KILL him for this. Boi you about to get kneecapped by your invalid idol. AND THAT PSEUDO DADDY LINE WAS SO LOUD BUT BROUGHT ME SO MUCH SATISFACTION. I WANNA SEE LEE-WON STRAIGHT UP SLAP HIM NEXT CHAPTER.
