I was hopped up on coffee and fresh off browsing Lockheed Martin memes when I typed that first argument. It was a weird headspace lmao.
Story still haven't confirmed that they have no non-magician soldiers. For the context of attacking Mistral's base, tbh author could easily argue that too many...
Magicians equipped with magic tool will no doubt still be the ultimate loadout, but maybe Mistral is planning to kill enough magicians to force a situation where non-magicians gets increased societal responsibilities previously reserved for nobles (like our irl black death). Alternatively, they...
Wait, the more I think about Mistral's goals, the more it starts to make sense if you compare it to our history.
During our medieval pre-gunpowder era, Europe maintained feudalism because nobles are the ones with martial training and plate armor. It was only after the development of handheld...
This is explained in later chapters (hi I'm here for my 5th re-read): 'Demon King' is an elected title, and is more bureaucratic than strength-based. He complains a lot about being tired and so far no one's expressed interest in taking over his title.
That makes sense why it'd be easier to get cheese than milk.
I found a farmer's blog that tried leaving raw milk unrefrigerated, it lasted around 24 hours before slowly turning into yogurt. We know Asuta got the milk from the hooded people, so the next question is how fast were they traveling...
I remember homemade pancakes being this way too back in the early 2000s. Iirc my mom made these pancakes with simple pancakes mix, leftovers from Asian cooking, a typical frying pan, and a lack of exposure to western foods beyond KFC and McD
Man... of all the weird guns the author could've chosen to be Altein's rifles, they chose the HK416A1, which is essentially European M4... what's next, Los Angeles class submarine? :smugnako:
Just like how the evil guild leader says "Effort is the excuse for the talentless.", I'd say "Results is the excuse of the exploitative."
Ask me what kinda job I work rn, and what my boss' favorite phrase is whenever he asks for unpaid overtime.
Iirc in early chapters Elria died by a 'disease'/'sickness', so my guess is poison or other covert means. Also consider that Elria the 'young lady who invented magic' is weaker than 'Elria the demon queen that's lived for a thousand years'.
I also don't think the blonde hero that surrendered...
It's even funnier that the healer that noticed Haru's injuries first had to invite Shou in such a roundabout way, for the sake of hiding that the Mages used a child as bait (which was explicitly stated to be grounds for a diplomatic shitshow on humanitarian grounds)... only for this idiot to...
I generally agree with your dislike against Liz, but there's some nuances around the kidnapping:
While Liz does hate Alicia, it's been stressed repeatedly that Liz's character isnt that vengeful. Even back then Liz is already vaguely aware that her will somehow bends reality, so my take is Liz...
