I hope we'll see his sisters, they seem fun.

..uh, was that his mother's body he was holding?

how? he killed them

Sooo... Were the other two succubi his sisters or aunts? The description says that his mother is the oldest of the trio. And the second is described as 2nd of the 3 succubi. So either a) His dad and mom had 2 daughters and a son, and ofc dad being the macho manly incubus, also conquered his two daughters, or b) Those are his aunts. Or even a plottwist c) He is a succubus/incubus hybrid

 

[Hamaguy]

Sorry for the confusion, the three succubi shown were sisters, so they were Ardenheid's mother and aunts

Ergh, eww. It's been a while, but did Isekai Samurai ever did something gory-ish like that bloated exploding head?

So did the other 2 aunts/mistresses got off screened?

Edut: No wait, maybe they're amongst of the headless on page 15. Two look like women, and one of them have abs like one of the aunt.

I wished their full body arts appear more in this chapter, they look neat

There's been rather constant gore. The puffed up head then cut to it just being gone with a blood puddle is, body horror aside, on the lighter end of the gore in the series.

The last page showed a diagram that tells us Arnheid killed his dad, mom and aunts.

Thanks for the translation.

I wonder if he has also fought a bunch of demons just for the hell of it. I mean he killed his Dad, Mom, and Aunts so I am guessing yes. But then why is he in this group?

This backstage was nice and to the point, which i like. Thanks for the translation.

 

[Scrabbleman]

Why did he kill his dad, mom and aunts? It didn't seem like they had a bad relationship.

He just craved battle, I guess. His family was arrogant and thinking that they were so powerful it wasn’t worth their time fighting someone deeming “weaker”. Ardenheid killed them all to succeed them, so he can have any battle he wants.

 

[Hamaguy]

I'll share my opinions here both as a reader and as the scanslator. Ps: being part of the scanslation actually helps in noticing a ton of details.

First, we can see that Ardenheid was reading a book, and when his father called for him (presumably to ask what he's doing), he said he's trying to imitate humans, evidently since most demons don't read and are dumb and illiterate. However, from my point of view, it seemed like Ardenheid was genuinely trying to learn, but at that moment of time was afraid of disobeying his father.

His father, being the arrogant man he was, said that there's nothing to learn, and humans will always be weak, so they don't have to grow any stronger since they already have special powers.

However, Ardenheid didn't care, he just wanted someone to fight against, someone who will make him bleed, tear his arms off, even if the enemy was another demon. He was scared of dying without going out with a bang.

In the next scene, Ardenheid kills all his father's puppets and even his lovers. It is safe to assume he started killing the puppets first and later challenged his own family.

Notice that Ardenheid here was significantly bigger, meaning that time has passed and he has gotten stronger. With that, he has concluded he was now strong enough to take over.

When confronted by his father, he deems him (the father) unworthy to be a ruler, since he neither improves himself, nor does he try to help his race advance and develop.

"Life is like a stage, waiting for the curtains to close. We must take action for ourselves for something to change. Dear father, please leave the stage"

Why did he kill his dad, mom and aunts? It didn't seem like they had a bad relationship.

He believed his dad, as the head of the family, was too complacent, and since his mother and aunts were subservient to the dad they were useless as well.

I can already sense a great upcoming battle between two battle maniacs

this is pointless like geoff's game awards. you just win accolades right?

 

[alacaelum]

The cutesy art style always takes me by surprise with how brutal the deaths can be.
