so THAT'S why the og was an ass. Half his family is just...weird
he doesn't have full consciousness as well before he got hit in the head, he said his mind are really hazy before that point iirc

but yeah, half of the family is weird for sure, it definitely have influence on his half conscious self

Can we get a confirmation on whether the mom is a mother by blood or a step-mom type deal? because the "don't call me mom" + scowl is a really unusual thing to see in these stories outside of step parent type situations.

It might seem weird to some, and to me it is incredibly pompous, but I've had friends, on the wealthy side that refer to their parent by their name or using honorifics because they've always demanded so. From someone whose parents are like good friends to banter with, it always came across to me as incredibly uptight and unfamiliar.

Thanks for the chapter.

If I may say something to the scanlation team, please don't put your comment inside the panel like you did in pg. 30 (that "lol here it comes"); put it outside the panels. That one is obstructive cause the very same position is often used for dialogues. Heck, even the subsequent comments in pg. 32 & 33 are totally unnecessary imho. I'm never a fan of translator's comments, but I don't mind if it's some additional info like in pg. 11 & 12. But your own personal comments/reactions of the characters/plot? Well, I'm not saying you can't give your opinions, but think it over again, or at the very least, don't put it like you did in this chapter.

Anyway, I like your work, smooth dialogues and clean typesetting, really thanks for picking up this manga, so keep up the good work :salute:

Thanks for pin pointing that, actually i just wanted to try it doing that. A main reason to do that because websites like likemanga.io or mangakakot and many other rip my work from manga dex and post it on their website, run ads and earn the money which even i am not earning (also no one is generous enough to donate for my work done, that matter is for another time).

Hope you enjoyed reading!!!

I'm confused as to why Roy, having been informed twice now that it is dangerous to learn magic while too young, hasn't tried to ask why it is dangerous. He hasn't had any issues up until now but some of the consequences might not be immediately visible. Then again, Elsa apparently has no issues with him reading up more on magic; if anything it seems that leaving that single textbook on magic in the library had always been bait of some sort.

I don't quite understand why she didn't want to be called mother; perhaps she's aware she hasn't fulfilled that role at all since she's rarely home? I wonder what her other reactions were about too. I'm not sure we'll ever get a proper answer to these questions I'm having though.

After seeing the father, I was wondering from where the eldest son got his looks from. I guess that now we know. Considering his age, she must be in her late thirties, early forties.

In any case, it appears that Roy has stumbled upon a treasure trove of knowledge so I wonder what else he will learn. As always, looking forward to more.

I on the other hand don't have problem with that. In fact i find some of them(jokes) hilarious.
Although i can understand that for some they can be intrusive and distracting. as everything key is moderation.

First page of the manga is a reincarnation sequence and, while we don't see the face of the woman, it's someone at a desk with various vials and books/papers in front of them. As such, it seems to me that Elsa is indeed their mother.
I'm not sure how common it is for a woman to pursue her career as Elsa has in the story's setting, especially while being a noble with a husband who focuses on their family's reputation.

Wierd quirk for to have her sons refer to her by first name only.

Is this a "don't want to feel old" kind of person?
I'm hoping it was more of a "Just call me Mom" kinda thing based on how friendly she's acting

In situations like this, Roy appears to be in the kind of position where he is simply told "shut up and do what we say". His father is the type who doesn't require a "spare" to understand, only to obey. Which torpedoes the point in producing a spare heir in anyway, if you can't even bring them up to be halfway competent. My take, such people shouldn't be allowed to have families if they're going to be incompetent themselves as a parent.

Roy may still be subconsciously functioning on that mentality, maybe with whatever he got from his past like as well, mixing in. When it comes to magic studies though, it's possible he'll stumble on the reason himself as he reads, if he continues to be dilligent.

For his mother, Elsa is also likely from a noble family, and highly professional. She's not completely cut out for motherhood either, but as a senior researcher, at the least she looks like she can recognize talent and encourage it. She may warm up to Roy eventually, especially if he produces significant results.

It's funny that every time protagonist remembers his past life age he gets humbled like a child he is.
