I could see Zeldris revealing his own version of Meliodas's Assault Mode in this fight, perhaps something like Execution Mode as a callback to his former role as the demon clan's executioner. An Indura transformation is unlikely considering how there's already another Indura arriving in five minutes, which would be totally pointless if Zeldris was going to show us a much more impressive example of the same thing before that. What I'm curious about is Gelda's role in all of this after that recent remark about how Elizabeth must have been glad to use her power to protect the one she loved. Could Gelda maybe use her vampire abilities to buff Zeldris in some way? Or perhaps she'll do something to the dead Indura, like reanimate it or suck its blood to borrow its strength. This would be a good opportunity to drop some new vampire lore. I also want her to do the cliche thing where she tells Zeldris he has to make sure to come back because she's pregnant. Zeldris and Gelda are basically the only notable couple in the series who don't have any kids so it's about time to get to it, especially now that Ban and Elaine are randomly having a second child out of nowhere.
Lancelot telling the demons to run somewhere he can't see them seems like it could be more important than it first appears. If Lancelot is only going after targets within his line of sight then that could give Nakaba an excuse to make him avoid fighting Behemoth. I also mentioned a week or two ago how it was a missed opportunity to not show Cath's throne room being destroyed, but now it's possible that it could actually still remain standing if Lancelot simply couldn't find it. Maybe Arthur will go there to manually dispel the Eternal Kingdom's magic after getting his powers back? Lancelot accepting all of Tristan's hatred is interesting as well since it could be setting up some tension between them. Their fathers also ended up clashing at one point so this could lead to a repeat of that, or perhaps to the famous duel between their namesakes in the Arthurian legends.
To those bringing up the Goddess Realm, don't forget that Nakaba said he wants the sequel to work as a standalone series that you can follow without having any prior knowledge of NnT. That section of the audience doesn't know what the Goddess Realm is, who Mael and the Archangels are or what the Graces do because the sequel hasn't explored those things yet. Lancelot going to the Goddess Realm to fight Mael would be about as confusing to them as Lancelot suddenly heading to the Leprechaun Realm to combat Saint Patrick would be for us. What's more, Lancelot attacking the Demon Realm or the Fairy Realm for that matter involve him fighting against people whom his friends care about and who view him as their ally. That's why we see him apologizing to Meliodas and Tristan in this chapter. None of this drama would be present if he had instead targeted the goddesses because there are no established bonds between them and the heroes, at least as far as any new readers know. I'm not sure what in-universe explanation Nakaba is going to come up with to justify Lancelot ignoring the Goddess Realm as well as Purgatory, but on a narrative level the reason is obvious.
I think I'm one of the few who believes Zeldris won't die.
Do people actually think he's going to die here? They must have forgotten what series they are reading.
This will be the biggest power up 3KoA gonna get.
I doubt it. Nakaba likes to connect major power-ups to characters overcoming great challenges and/or completing their arcs. Percival, Tristan and Gawain sparring with the Perils is of little personal significance to anyone except maybe Percy depending on how things go with Ironside. There's no way the trio can reach the level of Chaos-Lancelot just by training for a few days anyway. Resolving this situation is going to have to come down to a clever plan, not raw power. The trio's big buffs will happen later.
We are getting Part 3 for sure , Guinevere spoke about 4 timeskips but the final one doesn't seem to be part 4 but more like a timeskip to the finale so this manga will most likely have 3 parts.
If the fourth incident Guinevere mentions wasn't going to be its own part then it wouldn't have been placed alongside the others like that. It's not like Lancelot becoming a famous knight makes for very notable finale to begin with given how he's basically already there. She's clearly foreshadowing some significant event similar to Lancelot sneaking into Camelot to visit her in this part. What could be hinting at an epilogue is the event Guinevere brings up on the following page regarding the couple's final moments together since Nakaba deliberately separated that from the other prophecies, though I expect such a grim outcome to eventually be changed once she gathers up the courage to stop blindly following fate.
The Celestial Realm possibly has a similar being to the Behemoth, but instead of radiating miasma, it radiates the opposite.
I've made a theory before that the Behemoth was some sort of punishment from the Great One to the Demon King for sealing Chaos away.
Therefore, the Supreme Deity should have received a similar punishment since they both sealed Chaos away.
Because why else is there a life spirit taking the form of a huge beast like that?
Life spirits normally don't operate like that; this was an unnatural phenomenon.
Life spirits aren't taking the form of Behemoth, they just reside within it like they do for every other living creature. Given its namesake Behemoth is likely an ancient creation of Chaos.
