the web novel has around 300 chapters in its first season, but it's split into multiple parts due to the author's pacing. The official English translation is still ongoing, so the count might change slightly. The story arcs are dense with political intrigue and emotional depth, so even if it seems long, every chapter feels essential. The second season, which delves deeper into Maxi's growth and Riftan's past, adds another 200-ish chapters, making it a hefty but rewarding read.
What’s fascinating is how the chapter length varies—some are short and punchy, while others sprawl with world-building. The side stories and epilogues bump the total up, but they’re worth it for fans craving closure. If you’re diving in, prepare for a marathon, not a sprint.
