Aizen, when will you update?

I'm not traitorAIZEN, but I can offer you an answer to your question. With the answer being when, or maybe more likely if, the current English publisher releases another volume.

The first two volumes were published in English by Sol Press, but that company has since ceased trading, with the English publishing rights for this series entering a state of limbo as a result. It was rescued from that state by Kodansha USA in June 2022. Although 'rescued' is probably not the right word because Kodansha USA is a subsidiary of Kodansha, who are the Japanese publishers of this novel. Hence it would be more accurate to say they 'took back control of the rights they sold to Sol Press', rather than saying they 'rescued' them. And so while in theory Kodansha USA will now be the company publishing volume 3 at some point in the future, in reality, they probably won't. Not least because Kodansha USA have an atrocious record when it comes to showing any interest in translating and publishing LN's for the English market. So there is a very big IF attached to whether or not volume 3 will ever be published in English.

Obviously there is no way for anyone outside of Kodansha or Kodansha USA knowing either way until volume 3 does, or does not appear. But personally, I wouldn't hold your breath of it ever seeing an official English release. Even if they announce a release date for it, I still wouldn't believe it until it actually appeared.

Any word on Vol 2?

[Sabruness]

@Wulfbain who knows why. Vol 3 (which is actually JP vol 4) is due for release the 28th of this month. Vol 2 (which is JP vol 3) was released back in july.

Perhaps no-one's updated the Kodansha vols since vol 1+2 is because the numbering throws people off and releases have been quiet about things? i dont know, i'm just guessing.

hopefully someone will get 2 and upload it (and 3 when it releases) because we're past Sol Press's releases now and the WN translation isnt great (it's readable but very clunky)
