I mean I know she has inherent self confidence issues, but it grinds my gears that just because she's not as good fighting in the labyrinth, she can't see that as a Master Smith slave she's arguably the most valuable asset Michio has outside of Durandal! Take for example the military, the main strength isn't the strength of an individual soldier, but rather how well that soldier is supplied.
If anyone would be honest here she should be #1, not Roxanne, not that Michio would even consider doing that.
The smile at the end was worth it though
11 pages after subtracting the two credit pages which is worse than some weekly manga, but considering we're almost 3 years (or is it closer to four now?) without a new novel announced this is expected and honestly isn't so bad considering once during a 2-year drought we got, I think it was, a 6-page chapter.
