Yeaaah, I'm not doing action/battle sfx. Not worth the time. Just mindslap zash and fwish sfx over the fighting scenes.
This is a bit later than I usually post, but I gotta wait till it hits 12am in Japan to make sure the jp chapter actually comes out. JP ch19 fresh out of the oven rn btw
Vol 3 official digital English is out while the print will come out in April if you'd like to grab a copy and support the author and mangaka.
I'll make some excuses for elaine. Obviously she's never fought against an actual person. Other than that, she's the sniper/archer and AOE type. She can harvest miasma as a power source and has more magic at her disposable, but like most black magic class, she's a glass cannon. While Lloyd's a paladin/knight type that can dual use magic and mid range fights that has decent tank defense.
She could use other magic of course, but she only use stun against him since she doesn't want to hurt or kill him.
Lloyd only won on a technicality.
And also that this is shoujo, so don't expect much on that front.
Happy belated Chinese new year to everyone. Wish you a prosperous snake year. FYI I was born in a cool animal year.
