So I didn't know what an observation corps was and decided to do a quick Google. It gave me stuff related to Britain but this was the important part.

...organisation intended for the visual detection, identification, tracking and reporting of aircraft

So in this case it's for Eagles? Or are they perhaps also tracking Kake birds? Though, those can't fly.

it just means they are there to observe the fighting without involving directly.

Thanks for the translation.

Wow the sail ships are drawn wonderfully. Massive respect. So many isekai/fantasy authors doesn't bother learning to draw half believable sail ship rigging and ended up like upscaled cardboard toy boat.

That whole kingdom is doomed as long as the witches are allowed to keep their current political power. They are possibly an even bigger danger than the crusaders. One rather easy solution to begin the process of dealing with them would be a royal order commanding the witches go meet the foreign army onslaught. The drawback would be that if the witches actually succeeded, their power would be higher than ever, but looking at how miserable they are, that risk is minimal.

The funniest authors draw ships with the sails unfurled while the ships are anchored or moored.

Thnks for the chapter!

Hmm, this gives them a great chance to eradicate a witch family. Just have him send another "vital piece of information" like the first, have those spies track it, then 'interrogate' the one who disappears the message and find out which family they work for and if they disappeared that first message. If they didn't, rinse and repeat.

Then you can easily bring forth the evidence of "working with the vatican and enemy states to render us unable to respond properly to vital international developments, with the goal of destroying our nation and eradicating our species", and put any family you choose to the axe (and demand bribes from the ones you don't).

Just have to make sure you don't do it with too many families at once, or they will fight back with enough forces to win or at least survive.

I never expected this story do be so well done especially after the first chapter but I really like the blend of politics wits and fighting anyone know any other manga that does this well.

 

[MeePotato]

this is the part of the novel I stopped at...

Carla appears! hissssssss

Let's go war arc!

Not a manga yet, but the light novel The Trials and Tribulations of my Next Life as a Noblewoman brings a similar political acuity and "OH SHIT OH FUCK THIS GOT REAL" energy. Another good one is Imperial Reincarnation: I Came, I Saw, I Survived. It starts off very heavy on historical lore to set the politics (Like, 5+ pages of isekai history lessons), but turns to political action later.

At the risk of saying something obvious, old-school mecha anime like Votoms or Gundam probably fit the bill.

If Kilhina gets attacked, the Shalta Kingdom has a vested interest to send aid. If Tyrelme defeats Kilhina they probably wouldn't stop there and the Shalta Kingdom would have an enemy right on there doorstep. This manga does political intrigue very well.

Thanks for the upload.

Mangaka need to have some big brain to create symbols for religion in their works. Using Cross imagery is fucking lazy and tired to me by this point

 

[Akane02]

Carla is waifu material bro

 

[morichiro]

Oh shit. It starts...

Scouts. It means scouts.

This temperament of Yuuri, him being confrontational and repaying disrespect twofold is one of the reason he is likeable as an mc, but also is what cost him a lot.
In many ways things can be quite different if he is more amenable to the people of that world.
I guess him being an Isekai person is what make him hard to accept the way things are.

The funniest authors draw ships with the sails unfurled while the ships are anchored or moored.

Funny enough there are circumstances when you actually do that...

Wind conditions must be right, of course, but it's a good and efficient way to inspect the sails, do minor repairs, and generally checking up on stuff without having to take them down to the deck.
Only so much room on a ship, re-rigging a sail is a major effort, and some jobs are simply easier when a sail is hanging down.

Another reason to do it is to keep the ship aligned to the wind (and the waves....) at anchor.

You do, of course, never use full sail, but there's 16th to 18th C paintings aplenty where you can actually see ships docked in harbour with some sails unfurled.
Some even portray the other effect of those wind conditions: Some sails unfurled, usually reefed, with the sloops out a-rowing to get a ship in far enough to toss/row out a rope and haul it to dock..

(living in a city which has retained its original medieval harbours/docks gives you a lot of "useless" knowledge in a "how did they do it" sense if you're willing to Look and Listen...)

Incidentally, despite what's shown here, those large ships rarely if ever were moored like you see here. The harbours simply weren't built for it.
They stayed out at anchor in open water in the middle of the harbour or right in front of it, and smaller ships, rowed or sailed, serviced/loaded/unloaded them.
There were specific guilds for exactly that purpose in medieval times, which had their successors well into the 19th C.

Can't wait. This is where the light novel really takes off.
