The next chapters seem so interesting but the official translation is on a 4 week hiatus!! I wanna cry .
Spoiler**
And those last scenes are so curious, it looks like Kimoto remembers Jin coming out of his own body. Maybe he's like his mother haha or brother, that would explain Jin's attachment to Kimoto.
I was interpreting that as them being born from the same corpse, almost like siblings? I guess we'll find out when chapter 45 releases
Ngl I think Tehir strong hatred for Kimoto is further explained in ch. 44 too. Like there's a multitude layer for his harsh and cold treatment of Kimoto like:
1. He thinks Kimoto is weak, equal to a bug be it metaphorically or literally.
2. Kimoto was the one that have seen all of him in his most vulnerable state. Tehir hates being seen weak and losing control of his y'know... Reason why he cursed Kimoto when he was bedridden
3. He's too prideful. Being helped and talked to like he's a child by someone he perceived to be weak hits a nail.
4. He's too broken to keep up with the facade if being kind to everyone.
5. Jin taking Kimoto's side and warning almost Tehir to not mistreat Kimoto because he likes Kimoto, must have added more fuel to his dislike of Kimoto.
Thank your for the spoiler cause I seen the raws and was confused. Then when I was translating the comments multiple comments mention Kimoto & Jin being possibly siblings/brothers. I surely hope the fuck not. I don't understand why the author would make them siblings. I honestly don't even know where the story is going anymore.
Most of us already knew but in chapter 44 it's confirmed that Tehir had a crush on Jin. Kimoto knew this from the beginning and admitted that it was the real reason he hated Jin so much.
It's also revealed that Tehir started moving around, studying and trying to better himself for a while after they found Jin. It upset Kimoto because giving Tehir the motivation to better himself was something he could never do.
I had been wondering for a while why we hadn't seen Jin and Tehir interact more since their relationship is so important plot wise. But now I'm thinking that it was Tehir intentionally avoiding Jin. Jin was not only his crush, but the only person he perceived as being his equal. He wants to show Jin a better side of himself, and doesn't want Jin to see how "pathetic" he's become. But, Jin had completely lost his memories and that must've been incredibly frustrating to Tehir, who wanted to prove himself.
The past few chapters have added so much to Tehir's character, and I'm very interested to see where the weird love triangle is going.
