Wait wait wait wait. Was a chapter skipped? Feels like there is a missing part in the storyline

yeah, this feels a little off. I think they were suppose to show what's going on with the hero before this.

Someone pointed out the weirdness of having full plated armor in a vigilante troop from a backwater village and now the huge ass useless manor as their HQ. It’s ridiculous.

My question is simple. Were they granted the manor as an HQ by someone higher up in the kingdom or did they appropriate it as an HQ after it became clear no noble was coming back?

They have an (apparently very good) blacksmith, and the town used to have a noble living there as the lord, meaning the place had access to good resources at one point. The lord either died or left, so there's no reason to just leave the house there empty, so they took it and used it for a communal building for their defensive militia group.

How is this ridiculous? This makes perfect sense.

@kayriel A blacksmith, even a good one, doesn’t shit iron ore.
The manor is in perfect shape and so is the garden around. If it was abandonned why is that ? Do they pay people to take care and repair + the materials and where does the money come from ? Do the vigilante do it instead of training ? It bring no advantage whatsoever instead of crop or vegetables for them and it takes an good amount of work...

Did you miss where I said they obviously had access to resources because the lord was there at one point? Where nobility goes, especially a landowner, merchants and skilled artisans go with them. A town can't survive without retaining some sort of supply line, so they've likely made arrangements based on their earlier ones.

Also, just because a place is abandoned doesn't mean it immediately wears down and becomes shit. It still takes many years for a well-built abode (the only kind a noble would live in) to become unlivable. Also, you can CLEARLY see people are cleaning up/likely doing minor repairs in the issue. It's literally several pages and an explanation.

You're also discounting this is a world of magic, magic items, and people with strange magical skills. And stats, so at least somewhat game-like. Nothing about this is ridiculous. It's like you think that just because Feel has full plate that she suddenly bought it a moment ago, or it was just made for her out of purchased ore. It could VERY easily be a leftover from the noble's own guard contingent.

We simply don't know enough - but even if we use our own world's logic, none of this was nonsensical. The poorer you are, the more you make use of what's leftover, so most of what they have that's 'out of place' can be easily and fairly construed to be leftover from when they had their lord. Either it'll be explained, or it was just never all that important, anyway.

It feels more like you're just fishing for reasons to hate than having an actual issue with this background point that is quickly and easily explained with what little information we have.

@kayriel Why would a lord let anything, (armors or whatever) behind ? Why would a perfectly fine estate be abandoned all of a sudden ? Why would he abandon the place if it had pricy resources ?
Why do they use such a big place when they are like 10 or 15? It’s unpractical and a waste of effort. It just takes me out of the story for a moment. I just don’t understand why would the author put that, wooden shacks with a rooms for eating, sleeping, strategy and a place outside to train would be much more believable.
