this shit is even more uncomfy than any of the other stories I've seen with the slave troupe felt nothing but disgust throughout the mine topic and utterly detest lyle its honestly tragically funny how slavery is normalized would lyle sing the same tune and give no shit if she was the one enslaved because its gross these kids being treated as expendable goods all it takes is a slaver slapping a collar on your neck and now your in the same situation as the slave you casually scorned as "inferior goods" would love to hear her reaction to having a slave collar slapped onto her neck and tossed into a brothel would she still go oh well no prob or will she despair
These its ok if its you but not me mindsets in slavery stories are so hypocritical
and yes mc you have every right to be disgusted by her bad/inhuman views she doesnt view these literal children as human beings just because some stranger slapped a collar on they're necks and said " i now proclaim thee my property"

No, they explained that, literally if she had been eating well, she would be older by now.
What? That's not how aging works. It doesn't matter how well or poorly you eat, how healthy or ill you get, you still age at a rate of one second per second. It doesn't magically speed up or slow down depending on your health/diet.
"literally if she had been eating well, she would beLOOK older by now" would be a fair comment though. What @Nitrouse said is also correct.

"Oh it's a beast-man, jackpot" What, the tail wasn't an automatic giveaway when he went behind her to wash her hair?
It's not like they were very perceptive in the first place. Just a few pages ago they said they're low-grade slaves, not even suitable for a brothel, and that the best they could do for them would be sending them off to the mines. Then all the sudden each of them says they could use a helper, actually...

I like how they depict nudity as something normal and natural. While having a MC that didn't blush to it like an idiot and just took it as something non-important and moved forward instantly after the fact he knew it was something normal without any erotic thoughts.

Not necessarily since we're talking fiction. Raphtalia in shield hero for example literally transformed from a kid into an adult when she leveled up because demi humans change physically based on level and stop when adults. Either it was meant to be "frail," or it could literally mean she ages up when fed proper food. Both could be possible outcomes. Someone that looks over the RAWs would have to confirm. Personally I also think that it seems like "frail" or "skinny" or something makes more sense here, though.

Whatever the case, it has that "people die when they are killed" vibe which is pretty funny. :haa:

She's a beastperson, they mature faster (by magic nonsense), so at her current age she should be a lot older looking, but isn't due to malnutrition.

Edit: Beastkin are like monsters, they Poké evolve, when conditions are met.

Then in that case the line should read "She looks too young for her age." The point is that the translation feels very awkward.

In fact, the translation looks like a poor interpretation of the adjective 幼すぎる which can mean either "too young" (which we got in the translation) or "too immature" (which is more appropriate given the context; "She is too immature for her age").

In line with this, I've also noticed other really wonky lines (it doesn't help that the bubbles are really confusing).
Page 25: "What do you want to do with them?" - Not really incorrect, but awkward. "What do you want to do?"
Page 25: "If their master desires it." - Should be "If master desires it."

Page 28: "We don't have very expensive clothes" - Really awkward. The original line is also ended by "は..." and literally reads "with regards to expensive clothes..." This is therefore most likely Takeru indirectly/politely saying "we can't afford very expensive clothes."

Page 30: "How about on the condition that we prioritize supplying soap to you?" - This is really strange since Cricket is negotiating for Takeru to supply soap to them, not the other way around. The raws also appear to support this.
Please consider rechecking, @AP3P.
