Any reasons why they can't "adopt" the whole Myne family? Like hiring them as live-in servants in a noble's house?

Most likely noble politics. Higher rank means better authority but also more threats from peers.
Doing that would definitely draw too much attention from other nobles and alert them that something's up.

apart from what ^BladeGrip said, there's still the concern of qualifications. To serve a noble family, very likely the family will require their servants to have appropriate skillsets, so they will have a valid excuse to employ them all without having the rest of the aristocracy look at them funny and affect their standing. This story seems to be very strict about that.

Servants exist, but their origins are, for the most parts:

• children of nobles who were neither baptized as nobles nor sent to the temple as blue robes.
• children of other servants
• gray priests bought from the temple.

They don't just take randos from the lower city. More importantly, turning them into slaves of a noble family wouldn't be doing them a favor, and thus it wouldn't make Myne happy.

Jeez i feel bad for Myne. With each new chap it feel like they are putting fetters on her and take her to a high security prison

Noble gets pissed at Myne. Noble invents a random reason why a servant (family member of Myne) offended him. Noble has servant murdered and gets away with it.

Myne should try to consider this as a necessity on her chosen path, which is to progress the literacy and amount of books in that world. After all, if she hadn't tried to work for that, it's possible she would already be dead, or if she had still found her way to the temple, she would merely be a weirdo used for charging the magic items and maybe somewhat attractive in the eyes of random nobles, but not to the extend she's now. In a way this is inevitable consiring how ruthless that world is and how strict the social order is. Keeping that in mind, it's better to try to take everything out of the possibilities offered, instead of only occupying her mind with the losses she suffers.

Yet these last chapters replace Myne as a human first. Especially a child migrant less than 10yo, being used as a tool by a cold and cruel aristocratic institution.
Kinda refreshing to see this, in term of narration. I felt she got too much mary sue powers, after moving from her poor home to the clean temple. Now, again, the world isn't making life easy for her, it's not going to be a railroad of cheatcodes.
The fact she do not enjoy the traditional easy isekai life is one of the most important parts of this manga for me. It makes her more realist, human, and makes her endeavours more worthwhile. It is so easy to do crazy stuff when you are reborn as third noble son, not so easy as poor ill girl in a low-magic fantasy world.

Trying to remember, when was Mine put in the reflection room?

In this chapter, we witness the accidental near-detonation of a Nuclear Myne.
Observe, as the nearby attendants rush to contain the power leakage and prevent a runaway reaction from taking place...

I'm happy to see this train rolling. We are heading towards the end of 'Part 2' of the LNs. No worries peoples. We are in for a ride.

 

[TetraSky]

Man it's certainly different, seeing it in manga form, after reading it in the novel and seeing it in the anime.

 

[vodspod]

That point where you read or watch using a different medium, in my case both the anime and novel, and you don't want to say any spoilers, but you still want to socialize.

 

[Wendy]

Thank you for the update. And since you’re on a Canadian Amazon, happy Canada Day 🎆

You poor little girl

 

[kaminomikan]

so you finally had to get told the situation you are in, and the posibilities you are facing?

idiot.

seriously, and she was already a young adult in her previous life, even if her common sense was shit, she was someone that must have known some bits of history and how nobles and royals like to "solve things" even if her being young, mess with her capacity to control emotions, it shouldn't make her uncapable of thinking about the consequences of her actions if she took the time to think.

 

[xrogaan]

I read "The Lurking Reflection" as "The Luring Erection". Woe be me.

 

[dearmusic]

Way more emotional than the anime, love it!
