When you sacrifice your life to a God for a loved one and the God says "I rather give you eternal life and return your girl tbh..." bruh

Anri is savage. Her true colors about how she sees Shamiko finally came out!... I want to say, but she never hides it anyway lol
Gosenzo was bullied magnificently this chapter and I am all for it. She finally gets to enjoy life outside the seal and got an occuptation as a public service trash collector. This suits her far better than being some evil overlord~

So as I mentioned... Momo is most likely mountain buster level at least. The way she and Lilith talked it seems very likely that she meant it. She would have literally razed that mountain to ground level for Shamiko. Is that love? 😏

I definitely see why Mizuchi was sealed. Even if the humans poluted the river, to rampage around is not appropiate response and clearly she has no regards for anyone. Self-centered snek.
The part where she talks about "omnipotent being" I was under the impression that the raws were plural. As in "divine beings". Either way, the Light Clan is just an autonomous system long since abandoned by its creator. The guides(angels) are pretty much doing whatever they want by this point. Though there clearly is still a need for Mahou Shoujos either way, considering really evil Dark Clan members would otherwise go unchecked.

Still think lifting all the seals in the world is a goal too big for Shamiko, either way it's good Momo doesn't hold back how much she cares about Shamiko when she is in danger and Lilith prolonged her lifespan.

I guessed wrong, the snake was not a goddess, rather a powerful but whimsical spirit ... If it gets it's strength from people's faith you would think it would not go on a rampage on them so easily... It's likely on par with Lilith in wisdom.

The end result is great for Lilith. Conditional freedom for community service beats (eternal) life sentence any day.

Anyway, I thought it was very nice for the extremely selfish Lilith to be willing to sacrifice herself for her dear descendant. It's not just Momo who cares that much for Shamiko.

10,000 yen a month? I thought you were supposed to be an economical devil!

Shamiko is OP she just doesn't know it yet... and doesn't know how to use it yet... and she lacks the endurance/mana.
Well, honestly, I think Lilith wants to do the community service and enjoys it, or at least thinks it is worth having a body even if a weak one. She has nothing to fear by quiting and letting the body burn up, thats what she was effectivwly expecting to happen anyway.
Also, Momo is dangerous levels obssessed with Shamiko, I don't think love covers it.

Ah, I've been waiting months for this chapter.

So yeah, this changes a lot. Lilith is (mostly) free, walking the world as flesh and blood again, no longer just a funny talking statue. Though that freedom comes at a high cost of demeaning labor every day—she still does it, though, because after getting a taste of freedom and finally just relaxing for a bit with friends, getting to experience the outside world again with all five senses after being sealed away so long , she doesn't want to go back to her sealed space. She'll put up with it. Things are never going to be the same again.

Not to mention the sacrifice she was prepared to make to save Shamiko; her friend, her family, the one person who respects her. We get to see a whole other side to Lilith; not petty and scheming, but caring, terrified that the most precious person in the world to her is dying and she's willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to save her beloved descendant.

The first time I read it, even barely understanding the raws, I gained a whole new respect for her.

Not even big snek wants Lilith around.

But now she has immortal body. Ganbare Lilith, pick up that 9kg trash everyday!

Why is this thing a 4-koma? is getting harder and harder to read in that format, it should just become a normal manga.

It seems to me that Anri and Mikan are rarely more than a few feet apart from each other.

Shamiko is the kind of person who yells into a phone speaker because her conversation partner is far away. What are you, a senior citizen?!

@AhoBoy
Remember, Shamiko got ripped off when she made her phone contract, because she was too prideful to accept Momo's help.

@shaeli
I'm pretty sure her main reason for not defying the snek is that she doesn't want to be burned alive. Especially now that she can sense pain again XD

Everyone else said it much better than I could've, so I'll just parrot that this was really great development for Lilith. Momo literally threatening to raze the mountain to recover Shamiko is.. something. Interesting bit on page 5 "The omnipotent being blended into humankind and vanished" so God is possibly still walking around the world? Page 11 Ugallu snoozing on Shamiko, poor baby just has no endurance, does she? I'm not against the apparent Anri/Mikan ship, but I'd like to see more of the two actually interacting, yknow? I just want to see more of cute girls being cute at each other, is that so much to ask.
