I don’t remember, nor can find any IJN destroyer called “ikashiki”. That’s defo a mistranslation.
It's 魔剣アカツキ, aka [demonic sword akatsuki], or [red moon].

The reason of mistranslation is simple, in katakana there are ツ [tsu] and シ [shi]. Both look like smiley emoji, but eyes look in different direction. I had quite a problem while learning to differentiate them. Ended up remembering them by my own headcanon logic - [shi] is death, and smiley is laying horizontally, since it's "dead" lol

And イ [ i ] and ア [ a ] also can be quite similar, if quality of an image is bad enough:D

Considering he is cursed with only younger types, I can only figure their intentions are not the best.

Been so long, but if I remember correctly, he has gone to a brothel at least once.
he's also popular with the normal types. the waitress, for example.

I can understand the scanlator’s feelings towards Menea, considering how she first acted haughty towards him when with the hero then switched on Mc when he proved as capable as a hero’s companion.

Luckily she won’t really make much of an appearance until the Labyrinth arc iirc

The text in the 2nd frame of p. 15 was left untranslated.
Besides, aren't auction buyers called 'bidders' and aren't auctioned goods called 'lots'?

Ah yes, thank you for the clarification. It is indeed “Akatsuki,” not “Ikashiki.” I don’t remember why I typed “Ikashiki,” though it was probably because it’s a name, it slipped past the AI proofreading...

The text is
"でも、なんか恨まれそう",
which is translated into
"but.. I kinda feel like he may hold a grudge against me"

Also, Lot. X here refer to the number on the paddle that the bidder hold in their hand. In the previous chapter I already translated as "Lot. 3" because of the ambiguous meaning of Japanese word so i just want to keep it persistent.

I'll make a clear note on this next time we happen to be in an auction again.. With the dancers.. again ..

Man I missed this one, it’s been a long time since there was an update. So he got a new mask and a bunch of new things from the auction. And also the send-off was surprisingly quick. Looks like the proposal was also made official. A good overall chapter.

Thanks so much for the translation!
