Wow the pacing on this just went thrue the chipper. It's like a month passed and now we're facing a dragon which everyone assumes will be the new wifu...
WTF is wrong with the plot development these days. Why are we speed running story arcs in chapters rather then the volume they need to get attached to anything more then a random mascot character.
Yeah this story is pretty generic but does have potential.
Heck i know another story with the
exact same premise that did turn out to be pretty good.
But holly hell, the phasing of the story is amped up to not 11, but at least 16.
Like, if there was the same exposition over like 4 times the chapters it would have been fine.
And might even have improved the story.
EVERYTHING is super rushed or not explained at all, which honestly makes the it all a big disappointment.
The story could have been pretty good if it had more chapters to be fleshed out.
You could have make an whole arc out of the city development.
While also incorporating the slave girls love story / slave trauma / learning magic over the entire thing instead of doing everything in literally 2 chapters and have her falling for the MC for the hell of it.
She literately fell in low at first sight and the slave over was just cool with handing her over to the MC for no apparent reason. MC did not even have to buy her out and she done nothing for the story other than fan-service.
The backstory about the " orc victim girl "being the reason the warrior girl ( supposedly ) being why she is angry all the time could have been a nice side story for 1-3 chapters while the soldiers also got a short training arc.
which then could have ended with the attack on the village as a nice way to tie it all together as a way for her to overcome the issue with her ( and the elf girls ) work in training new recruits and prevent the same tragedy from repeating itself.
