Its been a while since i caught up to this manga, so what is MC's power again? Is he just good at talk no jutsu? or is the world he's in just the type that is so ignorant of hidden intentions that they cannot even define the words "scheming" or "plotting".
It seems like deductive reasoning combined with many people in this world being almost evenly split between lawful good and neutral/chaotic evil although some of the connections have been a bit speculative on his part. I wouldn't rule out some sort of minor magical ability augmenting his capabilities when he goes into "comprehension" mode although I don't think we've specifically seen any indication yet

Good developments all around, I guess.

Ilyas is just simply way too competent (when it comes to brute force) for her own good. She's someone who has capped their STR, but neglected their INT and WIS. She's just too blunt to be in the Knight Order of the highest caliber.

btw... how tf is the King gonna marry a maid ?? Don't you guys have political marriage to consider about ?

Thank you for the hard work TL o7

At the very least I appreciate the trope break, rival knight with a problematic attitude is not a cartoonish evil fool that hates women for a petty reason.
Oh definitely. The rest of their comment is insightful, as well. I'm just very, very tired of any non-action chapter to be referred to as "fluff" when it's anything but.

Ah, yes. Because it's always the high-achieving woman's responsibility to resolve stubborn, insecure, mediocre men's petty fricking grievances with her. No part of that list of complaints he shared is on her to fix.

Yep. He is pro gaslight no jutsu.
When the world revolves around the good white-knights and the bad dark-sorcerers, mixed by the morally gray politicians, Bro is really good at blending in to any side (yes, his name is not yet revealed so far). Hence the title; his cheat-skill is to take a good read at others' mind. Well, rather than a cheat-skill, more of an inherent-skill born out of living through modern 2025 Earth.

I loved this chapter and how meticulous the author is in building tiny intricacies of the setting, characters and their relationships.

He didn't say they were. Just that she focused so hard on training and such that she ended up stepping on some toes by accident - some were technically her fault, like obliterating that guy in front of his men without even trying to make it look a bit more even, but most were just a result of talent and hard work and jealousy of her abilities, or her poor interpersonal communication skills, or both.

The girls got at least a bit of the 'tisms, and has never connected the dots for the why's.

They make a lovely couple. She keeps him in the light, and he helps her see her faults.
Ilias and MC surely not on romance level, but a comrade who understand each other. Person who like him is plenty but that will be another story later on

Still waiting for more romance progress between these two :meguu:
No wonder the king wanted to chained him with a marriage to her; also the king is not seeing the whole picture if the manga is not BL then make it yaoi
it's not Ilias. There's two person, one that who really like MC and trying to get him at all cost and it's also happen that she is fitting his preferences. Even he is okay to tell his past from previous world. Another one will be appear on next arc but her romantic progress will happen pretty far away. It just happened that certain incident befall on MC and it really make she like "his other personality"

No it's not a woman's responsibility. It is, however, the leading figurehead's responsibility, one that she both has shirked to do and is currently unable to do so, as helpfully provided by mc. Some of those grievances were mightily petty, some were not. All are to be addressed. Also, not only in a place where petty grievances can fester, but especially in an environment like that the worst thing a leader can do is to advance with elbows ahead.

This might be a tad rough, but to me you seem here like Ilyas, ironically: You totally miss the forest for the trees to fill your apparent presuppositions.

You shouldn't feed the trolls, people spouting those lines look at things in simple terms, there's no commander or future commander Ilyas only the female being blamed by a male.

Repeat after me: Character development is not fluff. Just because there isn't swords being swung doesn't make it fluff.
While I agree with you on this, if the intent of saying "fluff" was not about the plot but tone (A fluffy/cozy tone) helps with the last heavy arc with giving us a bit of levity. But yeah if they meant the character development or world building was "fluff" as in a filler plot aspect, then I totally agree with you.

Sadly he need heir. If they can make one by combining their dna, I'm pretty sure the emperor would bind him by marriage in a heart beat
