Yarikonda Otome Game no Akuyaku Mob desu ga, Danzai wa Iya nanode Mattou ni Ikimasu - Vol. 4 Ch. 18

[Lunasol]

That situation is a "I lose the battle but I won the war" for the MC, isn't?

 

[Psychronia]

Sometimes people think they can be rid of their shame if they just don't give up. But opponents can also just run away with the decisive win.

Anyway, we gotta beat some sense into this kid.

That situation is a "I lose the battle but I won the war" for the MC, isn't?

Something like that. Since everyone watching has been observing Ridd completely dominate Reysis, there's two ways this could be interpreted by them:

1) Ridd is driving the point home that the only way Reysis can win is if he is allowed to
2) Ridd sees that the only way to end the match is to to injure Reysis so seriously that he physically can't continue, but doesn't want to take things that far

Either way, it's an exercise in good sportsmanship, since Ridd either doesn't want to unnecessarily injure his opponent, or doesn't want to participate in a spar that is obviously unfair.

dem, is that Z Broly dialogue from the movie?

The DBZA one is better IMHO.

 

[Scipo0419]

R - "I surre..."
MC - "I wont let you surrender"

R - "Yaaahh!!"
MC - "Isn't it about time you surrendered?"

R - "I will never surrender!"
MC - "Fine... I SURRENDER"

me - inhales

I understand what you're getting at, but there's a huge difference between "I'm scared, I surrender" and "I've actually tried and I can't win, I surrender."

Ridd should have said "I won't let you surrender like this." Instead.

 

[Hcoregamer]

Everyone knows he won
He dominated the entire battle

His surrender while being in a position of absolute dominance just adds insult to injury to the prince since it is basically showing mercy.

 

[ismaelh]

The rare respectable shota MC

 

[AmethystLord]

Oh hey it's that Racist Reysis guy.

 

[Wizardrone]

thanks for chapter

 

[Brobobo]

i will stand on this, this king aint shit

 

[PsyLynx]

He surrendered out of boredom. The fight was too one-sided to enjoy anymore.

 

[Grogzilla]

Credit where credit is due, falling over that many times isn't easy

Have been reading WN of this series for a while now, and I'm so glad I did, it brings back the style of novel that hardly ever saw in nowadays mainstream manga/anime, it's actually a weak to strong type of story, but not in a smooth sailing like those popular manga/novel, mc actually train hard, fought formidtable enemies, gone throught meaningful victories and defeats, heavy behind the scense and plot, despite his knowledge cheat, he still strugging and making effort, and most importantly, he's monogamy (as far as I've read, currently ch510)
It's a type of series I haven't read in a while, since the trend now is about strong/cheat character, but there's still a bit of fanservice content in it (shota mc, crossdress, popular mc, etc)

Exactly!

Personally, I also like there are real negative consequences to his actions.

Also his marriage is just so cute and wholesome.

 

[welcome2atlantis]

Huh??? I didn't expect the MC to surrender...

 

[Ironclad]

But they just said only the Emperor can call the match over.

 

[JACGohu]

 

[Fuew12]

But they just said only the Emperor can call the match over.

either one of them surrender or the emperor stop it

 

[_AZM]

But they just said only the Emperor can call the match over.

The conditions were surrender OR someone is deemed unable to continue. In this case, only the Emperor is allowed to make that call for the latter.

 

[Kireato]

I wonder where Norris went. And why did he call the prince his foolish son?

Something like that. Since everyone watching has been observing Ridd completely dominate Reysis, there's two ways this could be interpreted by them:

1) Ridd is driving the point home that the only way Reysis can win is if he is allowed to
2) Ridd sees that the only way to end the match is to to injure Reysis so seriously that he physically can't continue, but doesn't want to take things that far

Either way, it's an exercise in good sportsmanship, since Ridd either doesn't want to unnecessarily injure his opponent, or doesn't want to participate in a spar that is obviously unfair.

I don't think injury is in the cards here; the prince has been getting thrown on the hard ground repeatedly without really doing anything to break his fall and is fine, so he's apparently really sturdy.

I would say that the main issue is that the prince might be in a position where he no longer has the stamina to get back up and fight but he still won't surrender. This shows a complete inability to face reality even when it's hula dancing on his face, which never looks good, and also a lack of respect for his opponent since he won't acknowledge that they are better than him even after being evidently shown. So by surrendering himself, he leaves it into the air that the prince might have still surrendered if it had continued just a bit longer while making the statement that he has accomplished the purpose of this spar, which is to show how strong he is, so he has no need to continue.

 

[Raeandra]

I would've talked about his momma while he's on the ground until he's sobbing like the little bitch that he is. And that's why I'm not allowed around kids.
