So somehow this fantasy world still use Japanese style up to down, right to left writing style. And then literally in the next panel, they use western style writing. The mangaka just make up shits on the fly at this point.
The manager is such an annoying character. What is the point of antagonizing your helper? IRL, if you hate a specific employee but you cant directly fire him, just give them boring tasks or heavy labor jobs or just dont give him any job at all. This character is just another a dime a dozen...
