I like the changes in the card suits to fit with the world.

No bed warmers for you Myne!

 

[Airzpool]

It's sad we can't call a family even if it's infront of us.

 

[YamiryuuZero]

Franz is not wrong given the circumstances, after all, the nobles at the temple would completely destroy Myne if they knew she was treating the servants as a family and she'll be spending the entire winter in that hostile environment.
But it's still sad that this needs to be done.

 

[mokakeeki]

Lutz and Myne are just SO CUTE

 

[mokonaarappa]

myne alone again in the temple

 

[Gu7]

Lutz and Myne are just SO CUTE

Ikr, the artist does a phenomenal job at portraying Myne

 

[Qelix]

ABSOLUTLY NOT! Myne's hugs are for Lutz only.

 

[Kaarme]

It's only good for Myne to learn to deal with loneliness. Hopefully she will live a long life, so many things can happen. It's good to be prepared.

You see, it is situations like these that breaks the world building...
Everyone is forced to accept the contract in the "batism" and it is said that everyone have to obey the rules of the society they live in because of that contract yet they have to worry about people kidnapping others and situations like the one with Lutz happens when both should be impossible by the effects of the contract...
This story is such a mess all the time.

I don't know where you're getting that, because there's no contract shown in the baptism, just a medallion of some sort. Probably more a citizenship registration or census than a contract. Nowhere (at least in the manga) is it shown or said that anyone is forced to accept a contract during their baptism.

And besides, even considering the contract we know for sure was signed (the one between Benno and the Ink Assoc.), loopholes are always a thing. It's pointed out that the men never actually attacked Lutz. Who knows what they'd able to do to Myne even under the contract you say they're bound by?

Thank you for the chapter!

 

[Salfaro]

Understandable for Franz to say it, but still, sucks. RIP Myne for the winter.

One of the comments in our reddit post for this chapter thinks that Fran's reaction might be because of some trauma between him and the previous orphanage director.

I always have a mix feelings how Benno seems like he cares for Myne but Myne doesn't care at all about Benno. For example here, when Benno takes more job, Myne only thinks if Benno overwork other people instead. I guess it's because Benno is my favorite character.

The baptism medallions are a citizens registration.

Thanks for the scanlation!

He's yelled at her or brushed her off several times when she does show concern that he's taking too many projects. He will probably try well after Myne has to join noble society. However, if she does become a noble she will probably have the power to circumvent his decisions and make him share the burdens he wants to bare alone. Myne cares in her own way.

Well, that's why she's in the orphanage's director room where no noble would pass by (the noble section is on the complete opposite end)

I can guarantee you that Myne cares about Benno (and Mark) a lot - a later scene makes that very clear.

The bit about overworking other people is a TL error. She's worried about Benno getting overworked, which is a theme that pops up frequently in this part and the next one. But Myne, being Myne, doesn't even realize how much she overworks people everytime she opens her mouth.
