@yurirei It's Tokyo Syndrome talking. Most countryside folk think romantically of living in the capital, and afaik, especially so in Japan. Country folk hiding their accents is common character trope especially for social climber types.
I have the LN's for this, they have EN release, and IMO this story is all about enjoying Ares, delicious suffering. The Maou is alive only by literal plot armor.
I got the first volume from Barnes and Noble in Seattle but wasn't able to find the next ones on my subsequent returns although Bookwalker had up to v3 at the time.
Not too bad.
