Recap / Lord Marksman And Vanadis Volume 17

Go To

With Zhcted in its darkest hour and Ruslan's health deteriorating rapidly, Sofy has to return to stop Tina. Meanwhile, Tigre leaves Zhcted to confronts Ganelon once and for all.


This volume provides examples of:

  • All Your Base Are Belong to Us: Tina is successful in leading the assault on Silesia.
  • Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: When Ganelon absorbs Tir na Va from Tigre, he becomes an enormous giant.
  • Better to Die than Be Killed: Fine decides to die using Bargren rather than be killed by Elen.
  • Big Damn Heroes: Sofy arrives in Silesia to stop Tina's ambitions. Unfortunately for her, Tina seriously wounds her.
  • Bittersweet Ending: Indeed, the novel ends on a dark note. Ganelon is dead, rendering his plan to cause chaos in Brune moot. Tina is now irredemable, has took control of Silesia and struck down Sofy. The Dragonic Tools of Elen, Olga, Sofy, Mila and Liza are no more, yet they decide to return to Silesia to stop Tina's plans once and for all.
  • Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu: Tigre kills Ganelon with the powers of six Viralt (plus a Tir Na Fal-possessed Titta), but five of them (Elen’s, Mika’s, Sofy’s, Liza’s and Olga’s) are Taken for Granite and will remain that way for seven months, while Bargren simply leaves Lim afterwards.
  • Brought Down to Normal: Elen, Olga, Sofy, Mila and Liza revert to regular human beings with no superpowers once Ganelon is killed.
  • Call-Back: When Tir na Va arrives, she possesses a character once again. This time, it's Tigre and later Ganelon.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle:
    • Tina's army beats Ilda's own effortlessly.
    • Once Tigre gets possessed by Tir na Va, he knocks down Mila and breaks Olga's arm.
    • Tina defeats Sofy by slashing her in the chest.
  • Darkest Hour: Elen and Lim fight against Fine, Sofy is incapacitated while facing Tina, and Ganelon's demise results in the five of the seven Dragonic Tools being fossilized.
  • Demonic Possession: Tir Na Val takes over Tigre's body and turns him on the Vanadis.
  • Driven to Suicide: Fine commits suicide by letting Bargren burn her into ashes after Elen fatally wounds her, but refuses to finish her off.
  • Face Death with Dignity: Fine commits suicide with content after Elen seriously wounds her.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Sofy overpowers Tina but at the cost of her own life, or so it seems...
  • One-Winged Angel: Ganelon becomes a giant when he absorbs Tir na Va. Unfortunately for Ganelon, it quickly turns on him to assist the war maidens and Tigre to help kill him.
  • Wham Episode:
    • Valentina Glinka Estes wounding Sofya Obertas.
    • The fossilization of the Dragonic Tools after Ganelon's demise.
