Impregnate a 10-year-old, MC

"10 years old is somewhat of an adult in this world"

The implications of the above sentence from the MC in-chapter do not inspire good feelings or confidence.

I think it's more 'by 10 years old you're expected to be educated enough to not be THIS stupid' (trying to ORDER someone, especially one of higher rank, to follow his demand)

Which if you consider this sort of children socializing (where the guests are pre-screened like what MC mentioned) as practice for when they actually go into larger society (i.e. the school) I think it's a fair expectation.

Bookworm painted a pretty good scaling of social circles as you age:

Spoiler

Pre-baptism (below 7) at most you'd be introduce to your close relatives/very close friends of the parents

7-10 you're socializing in children room, where there's children of your own duchy and under adult supervision

10-15 you enter the academy, away from adults' eyes and mingling with those from different duchies

15+ you're considered full fledged adult

I'm giving up, i'll just mentally add 5 to their ages from now on

Since magic is involved, it could just as easily be that there is some environmental anomaly that either accelerates their growth or that increases the duration of their planet loop around their sun.

Age is just an arbitrary number that we have placed a value on. So this being a different planet then our own, there are any number of explanations that could explain why the 10 y/o children in the scenes look like they are in their mid to late teens.

 

[Shrimperor]

One should never care about anime ages anyway. People who put too much stock into anime ages are weird

 

[javajulien]

So they not only look and act like they're 16ish, but even the in-universe plot basically treats them that age range as well when it comes to the consequences of political fallout.

Author really should've just made them that age from the jump. Only reason he didn't was because of the idea of "well there has to be an academy arc because that's the cliche." lol

 

[Psychronia]

I'm reminded of my history teacher showing me old European drawings of children and how they were basically depicted as tiny adults.

It would be kinda funny if the protected her by eliminating most of the love interests most likely to cause trouble before the school phase even happens.

 

[xXPenisXx]

It’s not necessarily untrue. Historically children were held to a higher standard. Noble children that age would know that there would be harsh punishments for misbehaving in public. And commoner children would likely already be working at that age

Dude, people of the past weren't idiots. At no point in history was a 10yo considered an adult anywhere in any major civilization. Bare minimum has pretty much always been "going through puberty." Most places put adulthood between 13-20, with I believe 15 or 16 being the most common. Beyond that, there were often rites and traditions involved in adulthood that prepubescent children never participated in outside of outstanding circumstances. "Working" and "being an adult" have only been closely linked in relatively modern times.

Could also be longer years. That has come up at least once or twice in an isekai where the years/days don’t match Earth’s.

It's also not explicitly stated, if that's the case.

Yes, it's pointless to think about these things in manga generally and in Isekai moreso, but I maintain that a bit of contextual worldbuilding that justifies discrepancies in a setting from the "real world", especially when the titular character crosses from one to the other, goes a long way in dispelling the weirdness of those discrepancies.

If they're longer years, just say so. If lifespans are truncated and 10 years old is biologically equivalent to 25 for the "real world", just say so. It wouldn't take much at all from the author to just have the MC remark on it (like, one panel's worth of speech bubble narration, literally), and it would remove all potential weirdness or confusion.

That is absolutely me putting expectations of quality onto a huge swath of cookie-cutter derivative genre titles all feeding from the same diminishing trough of ideas a gimmicks, but I still think it reasonable to voice that a bit of effort in even passing lip service to justify things like this wouldn't go amiss.

 

[shadebane]

Oh, I was also including the whole "at 10 years old I'm physically strong enough to hold my own against adults in practice sparring" type thing from previous chapters.

There was talk that our FL also seemed rather 'developed' for a 10 year old, though I think that was due to her dress/outfit more than any intent to sexualize her by the artist (talking about the previous chapter, specifically).

Oh no, he was 7 at that time. If i was an adult getting my ass beat by a 7 year old, I might run away and live in a cave somewhere.

 

[razorshaleh]

as usual, there’ll always be that arrogant & idiot noble type plus he’s also one of game protagonists (even though he’s only about 10 year-old, his anomaly traits are already obvious) opposite to that is his sibling caesar is more mature & calm. issue is MC doesn’t realize he’s main anomaly in the story his presence is what makes the game drift off from the original story eleonore looks elegant and beautiful here, and arcs still seems clueless that she fully in love with the MC

Thank you for translating

 

[Lunasol]

She's way too cute :/
This should be illegal. She should be at least 18+

..... wait

...That sounds amazing!

A adult "villianess" yet still cute.

I can actually think of several time periods when children were expected to work and act as adults. Sure most of us have better ethical values today, but that no way stops kids from being used in mines, farms, kitchens, craftinghalls, brothels, and even militaries.

So please stop embarrassing yourself by saying it's only a modern convention. Just because your morality violently rejects children as anything other then snot nosed brats with no responsibilities, the history of practically every nation of Earth has consistently proven you wrong.

Except there's a difference between being expected to work to help/support the family, and being considered an adult by the estimation of the community and larger society.

@xXPenisXx actually said as much at the end of their comment, though your phrasing suggests you might have missed or misinterpreted that bit.

If you can also indicate when human beings below the age of puberty were considered/formally treated as adults in a legal/obligatory capacity, then please do share with the class, though, because I'd be interested to learn more.

Let me add something to that: Working being conceptually tied to adulthood is pretty much down to the rise of compulsory education. Before children were expected to spend their time in school for years at all social levels, work wasn't a signifier of maturity, it was what you did to survive. Children picked up work skills and trades as a part of growing up, not once they were done growing up. Nobody thought you were a grown-ass man because you could till a field because everyone had to till the damn field. Everyone had to irrigate, everyone had to harvest.

Adulthood was about rights and responsibilities beyond that; it was about your place in society. Adults could have children, they could be levied, they could be taxed, they could sign contracts. Some of those were impacted by their trade, but other things were not. And, let's be real, most of it was tied to whether or not you could have a family of your own... whether you could procreate. The only universal measure of adulthood is finishing puberty to the point you could have children, with social norms being secondary to that.

Thanks for the chapter.

"10 years old is somewhat of an adult in this world"

The implications of the above sentence from the MC in-chapter do not inspire good feelings or confidence.

I mean, it’s still set in a mostly medieval world, right? Not to say I’m a huge fan of it either, but that’s not entirely inaccurate for that time period, at least unless I’ve been completely misunderstanding that time period my whole life. Kids were expected to grow up fast back then, life just wasn’t as long for most people, so you sorta have to compress how we consider age now into a smaller space. Grow up faster, grow old faster, and then die as an ancient-looking wrinkly old prune person at the age of sixty.

Or, again, I’ve just completely misremembered medieval life expectancies and I’m talking out my ass, idunno. Here’s hoping it’s not that one, I guess.

To my knowledge, that's not wholly correct - because even if children were expected to work, it didn't mean they were adults who could be taxed and carried responsibilities to local lords/nobles/the Church like their parents.

And they weren't having children of their own, either - another huge mark of what it meant to reach adulthood.

Also, the reason life expectancies for those time periods were so low is because that data included infant deaths, and infant mortality rates were astronomical (something like 1 in 3-4 infants never made it to childhood, type thing). If you got past ~8-10 years of age, you could make it to 60 or 70 or more fairly easily even as a peasant, though it wouldn't be sunshine and daisies and disease and injury were absolutely still a thing.

But as I've elucidated elsewhere, the manga itself puts in zero effort to justify the MC being capable of what he's doing at 7-10 years of age in any capacity. No explanation of the setting having longer solar cycles than ours, no descriptions of legal adulthood and its criteria, and at one point I swear he had no magic because it was for noblility only, except he could beat an adult in sword sparring when he was 7, ostensibly with magic strengthening, and he's using healing magic in this very chapter on himself (unless I misinterpreted that panel and it was really the Villainess healing his injury).
EDIT - went back and I misread; he does have magic, but he was lamenting in ch.1 that if he'd been born a main character and not a mob, he'd have "special magic", and I misinterpreted that line from him.

I'm happy to suspend a lot of disbelief in favor of a setting if the author puts any effort or thought into justifying things straying from IRL convention or logic.

That just hasn't been attempted here, hence my incredulity.
