I forgot where I heard this from and it's certainly not traditional, but if you are really short in time and want some good fried rice from freshly-cooked rice, put the freshly-cooked rice on a tray and have a fan blow over it to cool it down and dry it up. Mix it up periodically for even...

That makes so much sense given how

I was actually thinking not in terms of bandits, but in the abstract: someone being put inside the bag of holding/item box. For bandits, well, the item box can be used for exquisite torture. Like leaving someone half-in-half-out? What might happen?

I think "frozen in time" would mean that the bandits would be in suspended animation until they're taken out of the item box. I hope they're all knocked out before being put inside of the item box because that'd be very disorienting otherwise.

I was just joking. Maybe that didn't come across as such, sorry!

None of the above. It's R'lyeh, Pretty understandable mistake. ---------- PS: No offense meant to the scanlator. Thanks for all the hard work so far.

Thanks! It just seems to me that they're cleaning up all loose ends and wrapping things up, which is expected for closing a story arc, but there seems not too much loose ends remaining to connect to a new arc. I was wondering if I'm justified in having that feeling.

Why do I feel like this manga is ending in a few chapters? Is it being axed? I haven't been updated about this manga for a long time.

Thanks! I was thinking that that girl is Cloa implementing her plan (on top of the plan that she told Tougo). In that scene from pg3, no one got introduced as Tougo (hence, the noble saying “I'd love to meet him in person, even just once”), and so: the girl could be painting under Tougo's...

Am I missing something here? I thought that girl in the carriage is Cloa in a disguise. She's known for spying and subterfuge, right? So I was thinking she's doing something about the noble(s) supporting the impostors. But since her previous (before getting involved with our MC) identity is...

You really hit what's on the back of my mind while I was making that reply with that. One other thought came with it, however: "Am I just describing the people of rural Japan?" and I just noped out of that line of thought. There's already quite an amount of unfortunate implications in some of...

Okay, let's assume that an elven civilization develops isolated in the inaccessible heart of a forest. Furthermore, all elves in this civilization are long-lived (up to 1000 years or more), such that your average elf is 500 years old. According to your logic, your average elf can suss out...

I think Abel is both in awe and wary of Ryo's power. While it's true that Ryo is a good and kind guy, he's still an unknown even to Abel who has known him the longest. The only other entity who knew of Ryo for longer is the Dullahan (the headless knight who taught Ryo his martial arts).

I'm actually pissed off with the WN ending, not because of what happened to the MC, but how sloppily everything got wrapped up. The entire handful of hundreds of chapters of the WN introduced a lot of characters, from one-bit characters that were only present for an arc or two, to some that...
