I was just thinking about this one today & good to see this come up. Can't help but feel that once Allen collapses from exhaustion, that's when everything is going to shit unless Allen is banking on his party to handle the rest. Thanks for the chapter.

This story is so stupid whenever numbers are mentioned.
"Maybe we should send 35 summoned beasts to mc cause he is facing 1 million enemies?"
"nah, we will need them cause those 35 can deal with a force of 4 million".

And how is mc gathering magic gems in his oceanic fight? Also lol at an ulti that collects just a couple dozen enemies, can be used once a day, and he uses it to try and hold off millions :p

Man, does anyone else remember when this series was about a guy surviving by the skin of his teeth, using his summons in clever ways to defeat a small number of powerful foes? I much preferred this when things were small scale.
it's hellmode, imo this makes sense.

to be fair, in games 1 million enemies at lv40 is vastly different from 4 millions enemies at lv10. Which I'm assuming is why the summoned beasts can hold those 4 millions off without needing MC. The elves are also fighting with the summoned beasts, which can help a lot, while Allen is fighting 1 million enemies by himself.

anw thanks for the chapter!

If that was the case, then there would be more gain in evacuating the elves each fight, and just guerilla the demons summoning new summons each time. Instead of risking mortal ppl with each fight.
But the main reason I feel like it's more likely just randomized numbers, is how author in prior chapters have had the numbers vary wildly, getting more magic stones than there were enemies, and stuff like that.

If I remember right then his summoned beasts aren't immortal and when they die they stay dead. He can't summon those again. He would have to use magic stones (of great numbers) to get those monsters again. Which would be a waste and would further hinder advancing. Imagine used 10,000 stones to summon monsters that only gain you 5-6,000 stones. You lose at minimum 4,000 stones every time eventually leading to having nothing. Plus, he might not even get the magic stones cause if he is evacuating then he wouldn't be able to collect them.

except he has limited mana stone or whatever it was he needs to summon and use the monsters' skills. And the elves are fighting in the rear with protective anyways, so I think having the elves fight too is good.

this is true though, nowadays I just ignore the numbers since they can differ so much from chapter to chapter.

I'm pretty certain the numbers have been translated wrong this entire arc. I remember people talking about it in earlier chapters, and then there's evidence on page 10 here. The word bubble says 4 million, but the numbers on the army arrangement total 400. So assuming those numbers were how the original page looked, either the demon army is only 400 strong, or maybe 400k (400000) strong. Either way all the numbers are likely off by at least one zero.

Still big numbers if it's 400000, but it's not as ridiculously big.

Nope, the numbers are right. You can see them in the RAW


1万 = 10 000
then 100万 = 1,000,000

No, the numbers are right but it SEEMS to be wrong because that's how japanese numbering works, ex. 4 millions (4m) are denoted as 400 man (400万) in japanese, hence the 400 and no, 4M = 400万 so nothing about translator being wrong by one order of magnitude

It's probably units of 万 (10,000) in the arrangements, which is the normal way to count numbers above 10,000 in Japanese.

E.g. 4 million will be written as 400万 (400 * 10,000 = 4 million). Once you hit 100 million (10,000 sets of 10,000) you swap to 億, and at some point I think they just swap to modern western notation.

One million, four million? That number of enemy is huge.
