Horobi no Kuni no Seifukusha - Ch. 24 - Battle

[Metalheadzaid]

This series is great. It doesn't suffer from the issues of similar series because it actually progresses and doesn't spend too long on the intricacies of the business and monologuing, and there's a lot going on behind the scenes - though I'm curious what the end game is, since there's no obvious goal in sight yet.

take a sit

Every time I hear this, a part of me dies.
IT’S “TAKE A SEAT”!!!

Ahhh finally, a character that understands well where he comes from, wont accept any BS (except from the princesses bratty behaviour) and will fight violence with even more violence. THAT is how it works, some people cant be reasoned with except when they bleed and they bleed good.

Got to be ego crushing to be referred as "to the likes of you."

i thought their fight would be deeper than this yet the witch's trick is so cheap im feel a bit disappointment.

This does seem strange to me as well. The witch should know the Hou family fights in actual wars, so even if she was just measuring Yuuri's resolve, this indeed seems too cheap. You can't measure a warrior's resolve like this. It should be done through nefarious means, where the warrior can't rely on his best talents and skills. Like poisoning in secret, since poison was mentioned here. Isn't poison something that ought to belong to a witch family anyway? Poison someone close to the warrior and see how he will react. Of course the warrior might just attack in a straightforward manner in retaliation, knowing the identity of the enemy, so it's not necessarily a better option. Dependency on antidote might still work. Anyway, the witch (mafia) should work using their own best methods, not try to attack using the opponent's best methods.

Maybe the witch mafia has had so easy for so many years that they don't genuinely know what to do if the opponent knows how to fight back at all.

Out of all the witches, She's kinda the chillest. In time way worse will come.

I get what you mean, but I think what the author is trying to communicate here is how the kingdom current aristocracy are disconnected from reality. They are too greedy to know

 

[Kippithekappamancer]

I love series with badass MC everytime Yuuri does something I was like meanwhile that one other series everytime MC shows up I was like

 

[KajurN]

That was very satisfying.

Yeah, resorting to violence at all during this meeting was just a disappointment.

I expected stuff more like burning their workshop, kidnapping, raping, and then discarding the girl he takes care of, and crippling the craftsman.
Going after the high-profile kid with violence at all is so damn b-rate, that I still expect this to be revealed as some kind of "test" of his mettle, next chapter. And I hate the plot even more than this chapter, if it does that...
