By the Intercontinental chronicler of literature / published worldwide

3 to 1-Hecilvic does not stop!

The publishing house Hecilvic (Puerto Rico) extended its advantage in the competition by winning the fourth consecutive round (the second in a row), consolidating itself as the absolute favorite to take the 10 billion in GDP of the World Educational Fund.

Score of Round 4:

🏆 "Hawkfetcher" (Editora Hecilvic / Puerto Rico) - 4.41 Stars (winner)

🥈 "Oakfang" (Editora Warora / Colombia) - 4.16 stars

With this result, the cumulative score per rounds (wins) is:

Winner Round Book (Publisher) Note

1 Warora Zexrazhek 4.52

2 Hecilvic Blightbristle 4.52

3 Hecilvic Nethertusk 4.28

4 Hecilvic Hawkfetcher 4.41

Scoreboard: Hecilvic 3 x 1 Warora

Colombia is on the ropes. There is only Round 5 (evaluation) left to try to tie the number of wins, but the final math still considers the sum total of evaluations (votes), and then two rounds of book sales and comics. Everything will be added to define the great champion.

📖 WINNER ANALYSIS: "HAWKFETCHER" - THE SUPERHERO COMEDY THAT CONQUERED THE PLANET

The Fearful Prince Returns... in a comic version!

Boso Xiomarys, who had previously shocked the world with the Alpine Horror "Nethertusk", surprised everyone by recycling the same characters - the Prince of Dublin afraid of flying and the cheater Prince of quizzes - but now in a breathtaking superhero comedy.

This time the tone is light, absurd and extremely funny. The fearful prince tries to become a hero, but his phobia makes him fail again and again. The cheater, in turn, uses his trivia knowledge to create weapons based on crazy questions - and in the end also destroys the world, but so comically that the audience laughs instead of crying.

"Xiomarys has proven that she is a chameleon author. She took the same apocalyptic premise and turned it into a sharp comedy about the absurdity of pop culture. The fearful Prince became an icon of human frailty, and the quiz villain became the funniest antihero of the year."- The New York Times Book Review.

Critics and the public have embraced it

The 4.41 rating reflects the perfect balance between humor, action and social criticism. The book sold 11.2 million copies in the first week - the highest number of the competition so far, surpassing even "Zexrazhek".

📖 VICE REVIEW: "OAKFANG" - STEAMPUNK WITH WITCH COW... AND THE PUBLIC DID NOT UNDERSTAND

The Wizard of Abu Dhabi who wanted lunch

"Oakfang," by author Bonaka Ludovica, has a premise as bizarre as it is promising: a lunch-obsessed wizard from Abu Dhabi takes on an antagonist who stinks. In the end, it turns out that the hero is actually a cow with an overactive imagination-a twist that has divided criticism.

The Steampunk genre even pleased fans of the style, with bronze contraptions and floating cities. But the revelation that the protagonist is a cow was considered disjointed and forced by many readers.

"Bonaka Ludovica has a talent for creating worlds, but the ending felt like a bad joke. A cow imagining she's a wizard? It may be profound, but the public didn't buy the idea."- Review From The Guardian.

Even so, the 4.16 grade is respectable - much better than the 3.82 from "Pigfeast". But against Hawkfetcher's 4.41, it was a loss.

🌍 GLOBAL REACTION AND WORLDWIDE DISCUSSION

🇵 🇷 PUERTO RICO: PARTY AND ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE

Hawkfetcher's victory turned Boso Xiomarys into a global phenomenon. She is the first author to win two rounds in a row with books of totally opposite genres.

"We are one round away from closing the scoring. Hecilvic will take the $ 10 billion and turn Puerto Rico's education into a world reference."- Said the president of Hecilvic.

The hashtag # XiomarysGOAT (Greatest of all Time) went viral.

🇨 🇴 COLOMBIA: INSTALLED CRISIS

In Colombia, the mood is one of despair. Warora invested in bonaka Ludovica, a rookie author, and despite the reasonable grade (4.16), it was insufficient.

"We lost three rounds in a row. Something's wrong. Either we change our strategy radically in Round 5, or we can say goodbye to 10 billion."- Said a Warora executive at a closed meeting.

The Colombian media already speaks of" historical failure", while some fans call for the departure of the board.

📊 CONSEQUENCES FOR THE AVERAGE OF BOOKS AND ENTERTAINMENT

1. "Superhero Comedy" Explodes, "Steampunk" Stagnates

Gender average before Round 4 Average after Round 4 Change

Superhero Comedy 4.0 4.6 +0.6 📈

Steampunk 4.2 4.1 -0.1

Alpine Horror 4.5 4.4 -0.1

Afrofuturism 4.5 4.4 -0.1

"Superhero Comedy" has become the hottest genre of the moment. Publishers around the world are ordering similar books.

2. Boso Xiomarys-author of the Year

Xiomarys has already received invitations to adapt "Hawkfetcher" for the cinema. Marvel Studios and DC are at war over the rights, but the author has stated that she wants "an independent studio to maintain the comic and critical tone."

3. "Oakfang" - cow Meme

The revelation that the hero is a cow generated a flood of memes. The hashtag # CowWizard took first place in the world trending for 6 hours. Many readers, however, defended Ludovica's boldness, saying that "it is better to err by boldness than to get it right by repetition".

📈 MATHEMATICS OF VICTORY: THE CURRENT SITUATION

Remembering the rules:

* Rounds 1 to 5: evaluations (grades from 0 to 5 and number of votes).

* Rounds 6 and 7: higher sales of books and comics.

Weighted average (grade x votes) - Hecilvic also in front.

🗣️ DEBATE ON SOCIAL NETWORKS: THE PUBLIC IS DIVIDED (BUT LITTLE)

Time Hecilvic:

"Boso Xiomarys is the best author alive! He turned a quiz villain into a comedy and even destroyed the world twice! HAHHAHA! Puerto Rico will get the $ 10 billion!"

Time Warora:

"Bonaka Ludovica is brave! A cow with an overactive imagination is genius! Only the audience is lazy and does not understand metaphor. We still have Round 5!"

Comment from a Japanese reader:

"I loved 'Oakfang'! The cow is a symbol of capitalism that thinks it is a sorcerer, but deep down it just wants to eat. But 'Hawkfetcher' made me laugh until I cried. Hard to choose..."

🌐 REACTION OF THE NATIVE COUNTRIES

Puerto Rico-Total Euphoria

Boso Xiomarys was awarded Puerto Rico's highest cultural honor. The governor announced that if Hecilvic wins, the $ 10 billion will be used to build 500 new schools and a center for literary innovation.

"We are one round away from securing the future of our children."- Said Xiomarys.

Colombia-despair and self-criticism

The Colombian press is buzzing. The newspaper El Espectador published a headline: "Warora: the Giant who woke up too late?"

Experts point out that Warora erred in not maintaining a consistent line of authors. While Hecilvic bet on Xiomarys and Mauricio (who won), Warora oscillated between Gustavo (who won the first) and Lee/Ludovica (who lost all the others).

"We need an author who connects with mainstream audiences, not just critics."- Commented an analyst.

🚀 WHAT'S NEXT: ROUND 5 (LAST EVALUATION)

Round 5 will be the last of evaluations. After that, we will have Rounds 6 and 7 of book sales and comics.

Spoilers leaked:

* Publisher Hecilvic: Plans A Book of "Cosmic Horror" signed by a new author, to close with a golden key.

* Editora Warora: will bet all the chips on Froldel Gustavo (the author of "Zexrazhek") to try to repeat the success of the first round. The book will be called "Dreadpeak" and will be a "Dark Fantasy".

"If Warora loses Round 5, the competition is pretty much decided. But if we win, we'll still have the sales rounds to set everything up."- Commented analyst Clara Montes.

FINAL CONSIDERATIONS

The fourth round showed that Hecilvic is playing at another level. Xiomarys established herself as the most versatile author in the competition, and the audience responded in droves.

Warora, in turn, still has a mathematical chance - it needs to win Round 5 on a resounding note, and then smash in the sales rounds. But the Puerto Rican advantage is big.

The world is glazed. Who will take the 10 billion?

Look forward to Round 5 - the final showdown of the ratings!
