Okay so these illustrations contain some VERY HEAVY SPOILERS, the last image to be exact, which you would definitely recognize from the most recent chapter you read. I don’t like how they gave such a big spoiler away so easily in the illustrations but scroll at your own risk!!

Thanks for the illustrations.

All signs point to it being the woman who died in the final battle that our hero keeps remembering.

The exact ‘Who’, ‘What’ & ‘Why’ may contain several plot or character important info so it can still count in some way into Spoiler territory.
Unlocking all of El’s seals must really be a b****

The last pic is the same from volume 1’s color illustration. I thought she was Eru’s personification, but is she the Goddess?
Or Eru at first could take human form?

OMG It matches exactly with that of the one in Volume 1’s color illustration and the other where Francesca and Renji was illustrated…
Eru or Goddess… Hmm… How does this even relate to ‘heavy spoiler’ anyways? Does it mean it REALLY is either one of these two characters? That said, since these illustrations are out after the latest chapter (34) where Renji’s interaction with the dying ‘woman’ was depicted… How is it still a spoiler? Heavy on top of it…
PS: Kinda leaning towards speculations that revolves around Eru regarding the spoilers, y’know, them “golden hair” and “jade-green coloured eyes”. Eru died and became a god-slaying weapon or something? Sealed? Something similar? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I feel like any further than this is really, just red-spoiler zone…
The medal, the dying woman and the goddess – I don’t even…
PS: Chapter 5 intro and them spoilers… sure are related, but I’m not quite there yet with how it all comes together.

is it just be or does Renji look like Naofumi from tate no yuusha no nagiri? Especially the illustration when they enter the cave is shown.

The hairstyle is similar to the point that it might be a stereotypical hairstyle Japanese illustrators use. The obvious differences between them would be age plus Naofumi having that cynical/dead look in his eyes while Renji has a more aloof/slacker look in his eyes. Even their respective serious looks are different with Renji’s face looking purely serious while Naofumi’s always has a trace of annoyance/anger in his.

Thanks for the illustrations. Well your fears were right, but it seems everyone is more interested in figuring out what the exact spoilers might be rather than having anything completely spoiled for them.

Well here’s something interesting. As of interlude 4, the goddess is still alive. The picture of the girl who is bleeding out smiling looks the same as the pictures in the volume 2, specifically the outline in the sky as francesca and renji are heading to the city of magicians. We do know according to Utano, that Goddess Astrarea is watching over Renji. So while people are assuming the girl is the same girl who died, it is also completely possible that at the end of the third volume, the goddess astrarea intervenes and dies. That’s only because otherwise, the evidence doesn’t make sense. Either that or the goddess can’t die, and we were all trolled by the heavy spoiler alert at the beginning or Renji doesn’t realize astrarea is still alive.
