hello my friends, despite everything, i am alive for another week. i cannot thank Shino and Limul enough for their hard work, especially when I'm at a severe lack of luck lately. but i stay silly >:3c

this week's problem involves sewer gas leaking into my home resulting in an evacuation for the night until the stank left. so please forgive any egregious errors, i'm having trouble identifying any. honestly my fault for working slowly and ending up rushing in the 11th hour, but as the only one doing the translating, it's definitely a slog. I'm naturally so so lazy, but I want to read this manga so damn badly, so what choice do i have lmfao.

7.5 has no spot in the LN, so i'm moving way slower trying to make it sound less clunky and google-y.

(next week preview: i'm packing and moving out of this gods forsaken hovel these oligarchs call an apartment complex)

Thanks for the translation! The fact that you still managed to get any translation done despite what you're going through with your living area disproves any amount of laziness.

Hope you have better luck at the next location that you're moving to.

P-Please stay safe

In a Q&A from somewhere (likely a fan book,) someone asked the author whether the “day-one exam to skip an entire semester” was inspired from an RL example.

The answer was along the lines of “Source? I made it up (for the story-telling convenience)”

Hirschur: “It’s free real estate”

 

[Justking14]

Gotta love that Myne is just too op to pass the basic class lol. Plus, we finally get to meet Ferdinand s first actual ally.

 

[WhimsiCat]

On page 5 : Katinka's 'butsu butsu butsu' is sfx for muttering, i.e. she's likely trying to read out and memorize the note.

On page 16: I think it should be "Rozemyne use my uncle as the standard", at least not 'set the standard FOR'

Hirschur: “It’s free real estate”

I wonder what's her thought if she ever learn

Spoiler

the divine-infused Rozemyne was making dust left n right just to go through all that divine-mana
(I'm sure Ferdinand kept some for his own researching)

 

[hierof]

wilfred, you need to learn from Lutz on how to manage Laser-focused Myne, for your sake and the other first year's mental well being.

 

[LiAuN]

i believe that there is a mistake on page 7 "the 112 students who don't pass will have to take classes" i don't think there should be a limit to how many students pass as was stated before by Rozemyne their year in ehrenfest (of 8 students) is actually fairly small for their year but they shouldn't be a number of students limited to those that would fail (by number i mean) i just think that the number shouldn't be there that's all i'd like to say

 

[LiAuN]

also 1 noticeable change from the LN to the manga is that Rozemyne is the one to bring the tests forward. This is somewhat weird as because it's a status based societies that would be the job of a scholar and not their lord or lady. And in fact it is in the LNs one of the scholars always brings it up to the professors (either Philine who is Rozemynes retainer scholar or Rodrick (who is also slated to become a scholar)

 

[Mitsu13]

I wonder how much Wilfred will learn about Myne after they graduate. I think currently he only knows her for a short time right?

Even if Ferdinand is so busy but he still contacts Hirschur, she must be someone quite important or useful for Ferdinand

 

[Aureliano]

Thank you so much for taking the time to translate this. Anything from the saga have become the releases i look forward the most right now.

Starting classes with exams? Even if they are just to evaluate the initial level of the students... Should not those exams have been conducted before the courses started, so that they are assigned to the right one? Because, if they pass all the exams, what are they supposed to do the rest of the year?

the reason why Ferdinand contacts Hirschur is because she is the dormitory supervisor and thus their forced contact point with those in the royal academy (in the LN she actually states that he never wrote to her before that messege). Also as was mentioned Hirschur was Ferdinands master and she obviously would have to be precious to him to actually be able to protect him when Veronica was previously in power.

there is a set ammount of material that is covered in each years classes the first day tests are there for those who have studied enough to be able to do things in their own interests within the royal academy (personal research supported with knowledge from the royal academy library is something that they can't do later on in their life, there's also a lot of socialising) one of the Later volumes of the LNs states that the majority of honor students finish their classes on their first few days and thus start socialising with eachother sooner then most other students i think there's at least 12 weeks in each student year (considering the time scales of certain events in the LN) then it's stated that honor students of the higher grades take a bit longer because there's more classes as the years go by.

 

[daedalron]

I love all the little details, like the position of every 1st years in page 11.
During the ceremony in Ehrenfest where they were given their capes (chap 3.5 show it), Philine was last, as she is the lowest status among all 1st years. But now, she is between Elias and Roderick, which should mean that her new status as Rozemyne's retainer means she is considered higher status than Roderick now (likely due to Roderick being shamed by the Ivory Tower incident in part 3), at least in Ehrenfest.

7.5 has no spot in the LN, so i'm moving way slower trying to make it sound less clunky and google-y.

7.5 is from SSC1, the 2 back to back Cornelius chapters.

@bicyclebastard For this chapter, typos report as usual
page 4: not exactly a typo, but the "What do you want me to do?" and "What do you expect me to do?" should be the same, as Wilfried is just recalling what Cornelius said.
page 7: "only the 112 students who do not pass will attend the class" => where does that "112" comes from? Just remove the 112
page 16: "Both lord Ferdinand and lady Rozemyne seriously think we can all pass" => the one talking is Isidore, a 3rd year, not a 1st year, so it should be "seriously think you can all pass".
page 28: "so he studied mana compression" => studying mana compression is not a solution to having too much mana (it's kinda the opposite), so I would change the "so he studied" to a "yet he studied"

page 31: Not sure about this one. The line "is he imitating lady Rozemyne's doctor?" seems strange. That part is based on SSC1 story with Hirschur. In that story, the line from Hirschur in the LN is “Is this… Ferdinand’s handwriting? He, of all people, is acting as Lady Rozemyne’s primary doctor?”

 

[Blabladodo]

lmao, Ferdinand basically told Willfred to git gud

Interesting... It is a surprisingly advanced system, where the socialization and research aspects of education systems are not considered completely extracurricular activities. However, I can also see the problems with this approach when mixed with the classic inherent in this medieval society.

But I won't say anything more. I'm sure the story is going to explore such topics.

Too OP to deal with basic tasks, bring her a golem

Go to the library and read. Socialize and/or work, mostly. Gather ingredients they'll need for their next classes.

Also, the school "year" lasts less than a season.

 

[thanghe]

Does anyone find Katinka to look similar to young Katarina?
