Wonderful translation, but if I had any complaints, it would be the continued use of western affixes like Mr, Mrs, Miss, and Ma'am. I know this is the correct translation for those nouns, but it just feels awkward while reading manga. -san,-kun, -chan, and -sama feel much more appropriate, especially when we are heading next to the capital and will likely be encountering nobles.

it kills me to make changes after I was reading the earlier chapters in which somebody must've painstakingly kept the western affixes, but if there's characters like Maika, Yuika and Itsuki then I'll probably adjust them

Thank you for picking this up! Nice job on this. It's funny timing since I just caught up about the same hour you posted your first chapter. I would really appreciate it, though, if you consistently put hyphens at the end of the line of a split word instead of on the next line. They are supposed to serve as an indication that a word continues on the next line, so it defeats the purpose if they are on the next line.

Lastly, 'desperate' is misspelled on page 27.

oof I didn't know that, I'll keep that in mind; and that's what I get for not using spellcheck lol
