He has a plan. He got it from his most trusted advisor. This young man, in fact.

 

[Kaarme]

Maybe that villain should stick to more subtle subterfuge. Trying to beat someone in discussion doesn't seem to be his forte. He actually made people more impressed with Nell. That being said, he was in a pretty hopeless position. Maybe if he was someone important in people's eyes himself, but he's probably not someone folks would naturally gather around.

noble clown is still noble clown, unfortunately he hasn't had his turn to be tortured by MC and i hate cliffhanger on the last page

thank you for translating

 

[blablablub]

I think I need a refresher. Nell's being away from where posed a problem for whom?

 

[UncleKaos]

Ah he is struggling... it brings me joy. he thinks that it is BAD right now.. just wait for later.

 

[XNFEdayo]

This is stupid. The king has JUST SAID before his little show that the rumors are traitorous nonsense and then he immediately goes on attacking Nell non-stop. It's like putting a sign on yourself saying "I'm a traitor trying to sow discord!"

Now his little tirade would have made more sense if he started off with that rant and then the king addressed him saying that it was traitorous nonsense and him shutting up afterwards.

Basically she was assigned to kill the Demon Lord (MC) got defeated and stayed with them for some time. Thus the country lost their monster deterrent for that time and the nobles are trying to get her fired because of ineptitude, but MC is preventing that by making her strong enough that they can't afford to let her go. That's what I think I recall without going back and checking.

 

[name_go_here]

Please tell me his plans include giving the executioner target practice with his neck.

 

[Shinigamisama]

Bro, just go home already. No one needs your opinion. And please, let's go back to Lefi. Hasn't it been almost a year since we last saw them?

 

[trenslime]

dude, idgaf about Nell, can we move it along, author?

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

This feels like the author is trying to do some political intrigue plot... But just not very well as the stakes are just not that big of a deal.

• "Oooh, let's try to convince people that the Hero shouldn't have that title."
• "What will that let us do?"
• "We'll be able to get some political power by controlling the new hero, which we can then use to affect which prince inherits the kingdom."
• "Alright, how will you do that?"
• "Well, we'll make a big incident that would take real heroics to fix, like a zombie mind control plague thing in a city. So when the Hero fails to do that, we'll have perfect justification."
• "But isn't your problem that you wanted to convince people that the actual Hero isn't qualified? That's kind of exactly what she's supposed to be able to do."
• "Oh, damnit, you're right. Ok, instead, we'll make a big incident that would take real heroics to fix, like a monster horde invading the city. So when the Hero fails to do that, we'll have perfect justification."
• "That's just the same bad idea again."
• "Ok, I'll throw a ball, invite the Hero, and bribe everyone to criticize the Hero to her face."
• "What will they criticize her about?"
• "That she hasn't been able to do anything heroic and is completely failing to live up to her role as a Hero."
• "... But won't she have just solved two major monster-related crises that you made? That seems pretty heroic to me. And how do you keep causing monster related incidents by the way? Are you a demon lord?"

Next time...:

• "What? No... Of course not... But that's actually a good idea. I'll bribe all of the nobles again and have them start a rumor that she's sleeping with a demon lord. That's definitely not heroic behavior."
• "Pfft, who would believe that? You're just throwing your money away."

When Lefi isn’t on-panel, all characters should be asking “Where’s Lefi?”

 

[Wolvenworks]

Stupid noble’s rolling the noblest of fatrolls, cuz that conversation’s basically leading nowhere clear to whatever his aim is. It’s like he rolled nat1 and successfully supported Nell.

Thanks for the update

 

[bakakubi]

Thanks for the update. Can't wait for this shit "noble" to get his ass handed to him even more.

No, that was another assignment altogether. She went missing (as far as the kingdom's concerned) after going into the demon country to strike an alliance with the bird-people.

Thanks, I was about to ask why was that crazy noble trying to do all this. It's been a long time since last I saw his reasons.
