Thanks for the TL!
But damn, the way this chapter ends feels like a series end.
Kind of feels like one of those cop-out endings where nothing is actually resolved and just ends on a nice feeling.
While that definitely felt like a series ending, I hope to God it is not actually one. I want to see more of these goofballs.
It's actually pretty amazing that the scanlations are actually in line with the current weekly released for the English dub,what happens next is quite literally either comic form or the next episode this Saturday afternoon(HKT).
It's very rare that an Action Fantasy manga set in a stereotypical skill-system fantasy has a female protagonist that isn't into yuri or locked in some royal ball drama
True,most are either dudes,the great set up of a lesbian artist,or involves royalty(the latter two can happen at the same time too),actually having a commoner female adult who has yet to charm a lesbian in this situation is amazing.
And thus Alina learns about performance punishment: good work means you get rewarded with more work.
The downside of being popular.
If she was workin' in a white collar office job,they would've dumped more work on her without a promotion nor a raise.
Might even have the boss consider punishing her for being a good worker simply because the boss saw her without any work in the few instances where she finishes work earlier(there was actually a boss on Quora who asked if they should punish their worker for this).
But hey,being this good means you can be close to achiving irreplacable status,they can't afford to fire you.
Honestly, this trope of a lone wolf getting socialized is getting old. It is a bit sad to see her slowly trading in her badassery and becoming another sheep of society.
Most of the lass and her bad ass comes from her unstoppable rage due to bad work conditions,and those are clearly not going away,and she was only doing it alone so she wouldn't be forced out of bad but stable,predictable,steady work conditions into dangerous but also unstable,upreditcable,unsteady work conditions.
Which,BTW,her whole job is exactly a sheep job,she's a Goddamn receptionist,remember?,she is literally the wolf in sheeps' clothing that just got more friends that further help both sides of her.
At least now she can learn to be more relaxed and less high strung.
