Since vdiskchain support the images with full allocated images in this case it's fully secured to able to mount the same device where the image located.
E.g, on the /dev/sda5 (ntfs) under the root I have /Manjaro.vdi.vtoy
After run the system from this virtual disk I cannot mount to it /dev/sda5

Maybe it's better to move to vdiskboot, but I'm not sure, so let's discuss it here =)

It's the limitation of the linux kernel.
Ventoy create a device mapper device based on the locatition of the image file in the partition(e.g. /dev/sda5).
Once you create a device mapper device on /dev/sda5, then /dev/sda5 can not be mounted anymore.
