Because it's purely a Japanese word pun, we found it extremely difficult to incorporate the use of it (as you can see, I couldn't find the right moment to use it in these final chapters). I too wish we could have a bit more, but at least it's under some of our earlier STHAR chapters.
Thank you for the hard work. I really appreciate your TL notes after every chapter you guys uploaded as it helps me to understand the story better, seeing a lot of stories are not included in the manga.
I love the note about localization comparisons, both at the end there and in the comments. I personally prefer Bertrand simply because it's a real name, but again, translator's choice with the given katakana and all. Thanks for your work!
I'm so glad someone is reading the end credit pages lol, because they do take a while to make. Especially the one about localization, I decided to do at the very last minute, so it ended up delaying our release of this chapter!
its sad its over since i mean a world where everyone has unique powers could be interesting, i imagine the doughter becoming some bad ass knight just breaking down anything she fights.
but that also doesn't fit with the wholesome vibe.
Thanks for the translation.
I really love when the team puts some credits/notes explaining things that could get lost from og language or changes from the source/novel.
Honestly my fav thing about this series is just the fact that it’s a princess confessing a prince at the start, I feel like I’ve seen every variation at this point.
a Convent is an place where many gather for religious purposes.
A Monastery is an Isolated place where few live in isolation usually for religious purposes
there's also that a Convent is typically female only while a Monastery lacks that connotation
TLDR Convents are usually decently staffed and are full of prospects and acolytes Monastery's are usually very sparsely populated and rarely maintained the few people there are either travellers on a pilgrimage (and liable to leave) or priests and other religious figures who have chosen isolation or to contemplate teachings away from the more populated convents and churches
it's a distinction that eroded with time but this author seems to have affinity for history so it would not surprise me if they knew the difference and were applying it
Bonus Point: Nunnery used to be more of a joke term women were not allowed to be more then Nuns while men could be priests or cardinals or whatever while the term means Home of Nuns it was more of an insult as while hey were partially established to give women a safe place to study religion considering all the abuse and other shit when people said nunnery they were saying it in the same tone one would use for a whorehouse
Not the final upload.
There are two more final manga volume bonuses that we'll upload at a later time. Follow our Discord (click here) for the announcement.

As promised in the credits page, a few more bonus localization differences between our manga chapters and the official light novel!
-Deznim vs. Desnim - Purely localizer choice! No reason for it to be either way.
-Sutrena vs. Sutrena - YAY! We got this one right despite it being seemingly nonsense katakana for a made-up word.
-Lévbition vs. Levbition - Utterly shocked we got Robin’s last name mostly right. This kind of katakana means pure guesswork when we can't find a real-world reference.
-Lilianne Lumiure vs. Liliane Lumiure - Shocked again! We got it right even though I couldn't find an exact real-world match.
-Mocca, Marilyn, Lolly, Meiza vs. Mocha, Marilyn, Laurie, Mathers - the one I should have known to do right was Laurie...
-Torre Tolbert vs. Torre Torbert - I like ours better. Torbert sounds like less of a real name.
-Bell vs. Bert and Beltran vs. Bertrand - I simply like ours better, for both. Ours feel more charming.
-Monastery vs. Convent - LN specifically states Robin gets sent to a Convent with no women. Isn’t that a monastery...?
Thank you for reading this manga. This manga has been a pure joy to work on.
