"Could you stop fooling around?"
Why? Her reactions are funny. Even Maria thinks so.
"She's definitely getting it wrong."
"Aah! You're a slave?"
Immediately getting right.
Reverse negotiation is always fun.
Hopefully he eventually convinces her to drop all the slave BS. Of any series that introduces that shit, this seems like the most resolutely against it MC so far. One can hope.
Yeah. Most of the time they might offer a token resistance towards it, but it never seems consistent. It's always to keep that safe level of not being able to betray the MC since the possibility of that might offend some sensitive readers. Or some BS like that.
Here he's portrayed as not being particularly trusting, but still consistently resists her being a slave. It's more that she's the one who seems to cling to it to ensure her own connection to him. But she's still rather insolent for a slave. Which is perfectly fine for what he wants.
Hysterical Maria is quite cute but smug Maria is nice too
Any Maria is cute Maria.
idk why mc gives no fucks about Dia.
Probably because she repeatedly told him to not worry too much about her while she's recovering. On the other hand, her self confidence is abyssmal.
I think this is the first time in an isekai I've seen the magic ball that measures mana cracking from MC's not being a case of the MC having a quntillion mana or some bs, having it be just from a specific attribute is a nice change
And it didn't even crack. It was just the expression of his element. And he had fun with scaring her.
