Well he did get a neat ring for this side quest. It does however feel like a random side quest from a game. Though even for that the framing is weird because with the town being locked down it seems it forces the event for this side quest, like the item itself will be needed later in the story and the devs didn't know how to properly integrate it into the story than forcing a side quest.So this whole maid ghost episode has no meaning, no consequence and no purpose.
Guess it was only a filler till the author decided how to continue the story.
THIS! I genuinly don't understand why people keep getting mad about how this supposedly didn't contribute anything to the story. The whole adventure felt like a sidequest in a good way: It allowed the side characters and the city to be fleshed out, and it also helped Rook conect more naturaly with a relevant female character (a common complain in the Isekai genre).Honestly, this was a good ending. It didn't try to be something grand or over the top. Lucille is just the daughter of a hidden relationship, and that's it. It's down to earth and not nonsensical garbage like her being the true heir to some ancient dynasty or something. She got some closure on something she had never known, and Rook did a good deed. That's plenty for the story.
Dragon is made by Boeing, you don't know where you might find artifacts if it flew overhead, someone may find a couple iphones in their yard or a door plug at the bottom of a well.Because a drop item might just appear behind some barrels under a roof. Looking for rat drops?
At least he didn't keep guessing on a different Lucille.
I don't think he's got much of a choice to make. Telling her and no one else is just the right thing to do.
She says her mother is "alive and well," but in the previous chapter she said, "when my mother was well," implying she isn't.
She's cute hugging the book.
Ok...when was last contact? Girl has, potentially, some very bad news that's yet to reach her.
I'm pointing out the weirdness of the language and word choice, not the understanding of the situation.Her mother is resting in the country due to a back injury. She is alive and well in the sense she is not dead, just not well in the sense that she cannot currently preform her duties as a maid for the clan.
Well that would probably be more a TS thing, since I doubt that Japanese use the same words.I'm pointing out the weirdness of the language and word choice, not the understanding of the situation.
I also didn't point out the source of the issue. Sometimes it's hard to see whether something is a translation issue or a bad writing issue.Well that would probably be more a TS thing, since I doubt that Japanese use the same words.
Also, it might not be her mother that is the ghost. It may be a friend of her mother who was also privy to the information.Ok...when was last contact? Girl has, potentially, some very bad news that's yet to reach her.

Overall this ""filler"" chapters were pretty nice and achieved what they intended to do. I wish more authors knew how to write non-action chapters like this.
This is the only sensible explanationfather was crossdressing as a maid
If wasn't for the fact that there were people talking about Lucille going down to eat in the hall, my wild hail mary guess would have been that not only was the mom a ghost, but Lucille was one too. Just maybe recently departed & didn't recognize the fact yet. The mom was just staying behind to solve Lucille unanswered regret about her parents.Ok...when was last contact?
