Recommended by Moto Hagio, venerable sci-fi manga pioneer; also recommended by Shion Miura, very well regarded "proper" novelist and the author of the excellent The Great Passage, along with a bunch of other people.

Not something I'd normally look into - normally anything with maid outfits immediately makes me think of god-awful panty-flashing "comedies", but this clearly isn't that kind of series...

fun start, I love the way Elle and Lilly a robot and a daughter are both treated as objects to be thrown away. Turn that around now as people on the road for their just revenge.

If peace is simply taking the abuse, then I don't think deserves to exist.

Thanks for the translation, shame about the one page having double text, but apart from that looking forward to more chapters in the future.

"How do you like... them apples?" - heroine to master at the very end, hopefully

Oops - fixed, sorry! (it was page 30 in my copy although I think page 25 of the upload).

Why was "kill" censored out? As if people wouldn't be able to infer the word anyway, making the censor pointless. I don't get it.

Anyway, cool chapter.

It's censored in the original but remains just as obvious; my guess would be that it's because this is supposed to be a world that's at peace after war, and the very idea of killing someone is so anathema to Elle that it's a shocking idea.

interesting premise but felt abit fast paced, like we just got trauma dumped with 2 arcs in just the intro lol.

thanks for the TL

My best bet all the robots got the word kill censored from their database after the war ended, that's why the word looks like that.

Damn, I wonder who the culprit could be... How mysterious...
