Welp, this is the chapter where I drop out. Hope those that stay and those that come after enjoy this series despite it's flaws.

Started skipping pages because I literally didn't care what that page said.

 

[mahtan]

I don't understand what is the problem here.
The chimera affects beastmen with a mental attack so beastman should not attack it from up close, that is obvious and not a "disgrace" like they are trying to make it...

 

[VincentYamato]

I know that usually in novel adventurers are depicted as not really smart, but there should ve a limit as to how dumb yoi can be. Dont anyone there think that there ia something fishy with that woman? She is literally a newbie that just got there and seem to know a shit ton more about the chimera than the guild, and its obvious that shes got a thing against beat ppl, how can they not see that?!!

 

[Wolvenworks]

@VincentYamato have to agree with you, it does sound super fishy as fuck. can't wait will the crazy chick gets retribution

 

[Med1um]

@VincentYamato
Yeah, i'm facepalmed myself so many times through that chapter, that my face already bleeding...
For better or for worse, NOBODY ever will hear opinion of the newcomer of several days. In most novels it's negative factor for ours MCs, and it's quite logical. But where it's negative factor for evil mastermind, it's been ignored in such unsightly way... Shame on the autor

And together with that, not only she newcomer, she spit out information that she can't know, she appeared pretty much at the same time as chimera, and trying to intervene without real motive or any evidence...

I have no words about how awful that chapter was, so awful that i'm gonna to puke.

@mahtan

It's actually the other way around. Beastmen affect the chimera. It's hatred, it's aggressiveness and it's primal instincts. Don't let the evil mastermind lure you in, she doesn't make one sound argument except for the "the chimera and the beastmen are linked in some way".

 

[mahtan]

@GerryCerryBerry

Don't the chimera cause mental debuff on beastmen that are close to it? We saw it can use mental attacks when it used the illusion on the guy that lost the wife.

 

[GerryCerryBerry]

@mahtan

IIRC the guy who saw his wife was a human. I think the thing with the resurfacing heads is a power of the chimera. It being able to shape its chimeric form to anybody it preyed on before.

These are just my assumptions based on the current chapters so far, so I could be wrong.?

I'll keep reading but I kind of disliked this chapter.

@VincentYamato & @Med1um
I have to say that the guild doesn't seem so dumb than that. The guild masters don't seem to trust the new girl and they point out how fishy it is that she talks now in front of everyone while she didn't say anything before. ( @mahtan )That's why the armored guy says "you must not insult dead comrade", because he doubts the testimony of Ryuk who's on the stranger's side. (and saying that beastmen can be mentally controlled would make beastmen weak and unreliable in the future)

The rest of the guild didn't take any side for the moment, they just let her speak. We will see how the story develops itself in the next chapter.

@Clad95150
that "let her speak" is already bad enough. I mean she is fishy enough to be taken in custody and be interrogated.
She refused to tell anything before, when it was actually matter, that discussion wasn't for presenting new information, but for discuss already known information.
If she kept that info for herself before that discussion, it's her rights... but in that case she isn't in position to present unpublished info on conference, when she can say whatever the f her sick head can produce.

Yeah, guild master "don't trust" her, but on that case, they have more than enough evidence to accuse her for treason. Take in custody, or atleast kick out of conference is least that they should have done.
There is no way that they can survive as huge organisation, if they deal with that bullshit with such a meek attitude.

I will repeat, it's just usual "evil mastermind shouldn't be stopped just by mob-characters. It's the work for main character" and this is quite disapointing, because the more obvious that made, the more it hurt the quality of the story. Ans in that situation, it just hit rock-bottom, on the level of retardeness.

P.S. I'm telling all of this, mostly because autor could easily escape from those points. Not made her "be silent" before conference for example. It would be much more convincing, and will not hinder progression of the story at all. The problem with this that autor don't see any problem in the first place with how he give us that bullshit story (or else he would have changed it by single sentence), and this show his capability as autor.
Well, it's not like i expected much from him, story wasn't that highclass in the first place, but i considered it as at least something as average and "can be read". Now i actually don't even want to read that, and it make me sad.

@Ghede
I feel your pain and there are so many isekai like this one that it lose any appeal it could have otherwise.

 

[jokerxhisoka]

dumb development, if I were told beastmen were the chimera' prey and way of strengthening , first thing I would do is to prohibit all of them of going out instead of expelling them and making them easy prey.
