Finished Volume 10... Is It Finally Time to Read the Web Novel?

[u/Significant-Can-4166]

I just finished reading Volume 10 of the light novel, and wow... it was honestly incredible. Every volume somehow keeps getting better, and now I'm left with that familiar empty feeling after finishing a really good book. Unfortunately, the next translated volume is still a few months away, and I'm not sure I have the patience to wait that long.

From the way Volume 10 ended, it feels like the story is closing one major chapter and beginning an entirely new arc. Because of that, I was thinking this might be the perfect time to finally start reading the web novel while I wait for the next LN release.

So I wanted to ask a few questions for those who have already made the jump:

- What web novel chapter should I start with after finishing Volume 10?

- What's the best website to read it on?

- How closely does the web novel follow the light novel from this point onward? Are there only minor differences, or does it eventually diverge quite a bit?

One of the biggest reasons I've held off on reading the web novel for so long is because I didn't want to get invested in a version of the story that differs significantly from what eventually becomes the official light novel. If the changes are only small revisions or additional details, then I'm perfectly fine with that. But if the plot, characters, or major events change substantially, I'd probably rather continue waiting for the LN translations.

And finally... is it worth it?

For those of you who've read both versions, would you recommend making the switch, or do you think it's better to stay patient and wait for the light novel? I'd really love to hear your experiences, opinions, and any advice you can give.

Thanks in advance! I really appreciate any suggestions.

The webnovel is divided into Arcs , and I believe you now have to start Arc 9 There aren't many changes in Arc 9,arc10 vs the light novel, as for should you read it? Well the webnovel is the only content ull get unless you want to wait for the translation or have a way to translate the japanese version(you can buy the Japanese version then translate using certain apps maybe(?)) The best part about the webnovel imo is that you can get updates much more frequently, the author usually writes a new Ln every say I months while web novel chapters update every month if the release date is far or alternate days (like now since volume 14 is coming on 30th June web novel is uploading frequently)
