well fuck this. Called this shit since the start of this shitty arc. Ofc they gonna try to use his girl now to fuck him up fucking pussy ass piece of shit vampires. So fucking weak you need to think of fucked up ways to win. It's funny because they are starting this whole fucking mess just because he is too fucking strong? fucking garbage, author could have came up with a better reason tbh.

If the author actually goes through with a successful kidnapping, i might just drop this series.. Getting tired of these kidnapping plots because most of the time they go on far too long.

Hi Biaman Scans

So they know perfectly well that Shin is something not to be trifled with. Something that can, and will, destroy anything and everything they hold close should he be slighted. Not even the warm embrace of hell can save you from him.

Let's try to really piss him off.

In all honesty, the demonizing of Cecily is all but assured at this point. But I question the validity of how it'll pan out. Like, does becoming a demon alter your personality to such an extreme that it would completely remove her devotion to Shin? Would becoming a demon change her stance and betray?
I'm going to assume it's going to be something akin to mind control. Or something like a inhibitor release, where the freedom and power warp her personality- not to the point of removing her devotion, but making it far worse. Like putting every emotion she's held or hidden on blast.
Kinda like the shadows from Persona 4.

I don't see what would they gain by kidnapping and demonizing Cecily. Getting Shin to rampage and slaughter them all and then despairing? Even the demonized Cecily would be no match for him. This is so dum, so dumdum. But I guess it's a token arc in these things.

@Starbuck there's very little consistency, like Cecily keeps switching between that and Cicily. Even within the same chapter. And also other names I forgot. Minor things, but kinda distracting sometimes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

well i think this is the point were its time to drop this, just like with every other isekai, the start is interesting but then it just becomes a slog.

I don't understand why they are messing with shin, when their master told them not to concern about shin at all, because he didn't wanted to confront him, and they are going out of their way, ignoring their master order and poking the tiger face.
They'll only get massacred, slaughtered, murdered, obliterated, destroyed, not even a speck of dust will remain of them.
This is so obvious.

Ppl say Chinese novels are cliche but jp ones in my opinion lack ruthlessness in MCs so problems seem like their being handled by 5 year olds...

i'm starting to think what they want to achieve is not to weaken Shin but to mess with his magic control and make him demonize just like Strom did to instigate discord in his ranks
weakening him with kidnapping Cecily, demonizing her or killing her in front of him just doesn't make sense
or maybe i'm just thinking too much in avoiding the usual kidnapping cliches

Nothing to do with Spanish or English. Katakana has no difference between Walford and Warford. Also I'm pretty sure the translations are from Japanese, since the raws I get for chapters I proofread (not this one, but for example 24) are in Japanese.

For anyone wondering, the author's intention when using these european names is to get a european feel to them, so when translating, they should be written as they would in any european country where they might originate from (Walford comes from english speaking countries, so it should be used like that instead of warford, even if the katakana is ambiguous).

Regarding the "lack of ruthlessness" in the jp novels compared to CH or KR ones, it's simply because the target demographic is different, it's like comparing Detective Conan with CSI, one's target demographic is aimed at early teens up to young adults and maybe beyond that, while CSI is aimed at young adults and beyond, though there are other factors too, not just age, but gender, social status, etc. Chinese and Korean novels seem more dark because the ones that get uploaded are those for a different demographic than Japan's ones like Kenja no Mago, it might be even possible that there are no publishers editing for those targets too.

As for what these demons are planning, Shin's powers are far too great, and they don't yet understand what they are, in fact, Shin's ability to imbue extremely complex effects onto items is on the level of a god, so he could very well dispell demonization, or even dispell the adverse effects of demonization, such as skin and eye color, as well as the madness enhancement, he's just having fun, though with what has happened now, maybe he'll react in some interesting way. And I don't think they want to demonize him, they likely just want to mess with him and somehow get him out of the picture so they can do some stuff to "mankind" (they're just buffed humans, I still don't get the whole "who will survive, us demons or the humans", it makes no sense...). Demonization, as I said, is unlikely, Walford has too much magic power, so if he hasn't demonized yet it's because he either can't, or he already is but without the adverse effects.

These demons know that Shin is capable of destroying a country without much thinking... not even that schlong guy can stop Shin and yet they're still thinking which one will prevail ?! demons vs humans? more like demons vs natural disaster.
