Maou ni Natta node, Dungeon Tsukutte Jingai Musume to Honobono suru - Vol. 10 Ch. 68.2

This point is brought up in the novel by Yuki himself. He’s really annoyed that his DEX only seems to positively affect his crafting, but does nothing when handling weapons.
It comes up at least twice before and even in this arc and the manga either glossed over it or didn’t show it at all.

Yeah I am aware as I pulled that info from the novel in the first place.

Oh, okay. Then let’s just continue rambling on how this adaption skimps a lot of backstory/world building.

Yeah it skips a lot, but nothing particularly important, it does kind of gloss over Yuki's reasoning of why he picked this fight, though based on the comments it was still plenty obvious by reading between the lines. Though they think he knows that factions leader was directly responsible for the attack, vs that he just knows that faction was involved so is holding him accountable as the leader, though if I remember right he has no clue that the birdman village attack even happened.
But yeah its understandable that they skip a lot, hell there is the daydreams and holiday specials, they will really need to skip those, they would need a spin off manga to cover all those. But in general there is some pacing issues with the novel, its jump from very very chill slice of life, to explosion espionage and politics, and then he just puts a pin in that and is back to chill slice of life while waiting on the next step in the span of three chapters, its whiplash inducing.

World building wise, this is still at the point Yuki barley cares about the outside world, and doesn't really bother to learn much. So its less skipped and just not yet relevant.

En is way too cute. She's always stealing the show.

Spoiler

On the contrary, he's weaker than yuki, hence why he had to use that sword, what i said was that yuki isn't the one who kills him, he dies to a legendary disaster class dragon monster that a arc villain revived in later chapters, by that point if he fought yuki, it would be like when yuki faced the slavers who kidnapped illuna, a complete massacre, basically yuki at that point is strong enough to take on a legendary disaster class monster, while he easily dies to it.
Before you ask yes, yuki is still much weaker than lefi at that point.

Ok I see, and yeah I think we all know Waifu is stronger than him

"Handle this girl here" ayoooooooo

Ngl i thought nell was dead

Nope.

Gojim's monologue (and his fight against Yuki) was very suddenly interrupted on the next page by a group of demon warriors seemingly trying to arrest Yuki (that was actually a clue for Yuki to flee and let his “Ypsilon” identity to be disqualified). Behind the curtains we see that Gojim's aide opposed the very idea of his master using Tortund Ruin to fight because that'll shorten Gojim's life (and the demons around Gojim see him as their future king and thus wish his reign to be long and prosperous and so on).

In the first place, I'm so confused why Yuki even attacked him. I mean, I can assume he learned that Gojim was the mastermind who attacked Nell, but I feel like something got skipped.

Also, I'm confused why Gojim even came down and fight Yuki. Is that just because he accepted Yuki's provocation? It's kinda weird he didn't even ask why he got attacked.

Actually, who is Gojim even? Is he the leader of the other demon faction? The one that attacked the human kingdom?

Yuki attacked Gojim because Yuki was angry and thus not very rational after seeing what happened.

Gojim, as the leader of the demon faction opposing King Finar, based his faction around the idea that demons need a mighty king (Gojim) instead of a wise king (Finar) and thus dethrone the latter. Hence the necessity for Gojim to prove his might in public by letting himself be provoked into a fight against Yuki, especially a fight that Gojim knew is winnable because of the cursed sword.

Despite his political agenda of might above wisdom, behind the curtains Gojim is not without his own share of political wisdom, but he is not the only mastermind behind the attack against the human kingdom. That attack was a joint effort between demons and necromancers (that's not a spoiler at this point because we have already seen that the dead prince was controlled by a tool enchanted by necromancy and operated by a demon). At this point of the story we have more or less seen the demons' chain of command up to Gojim, but almost none of the necromancers'. As they say, stay tuned for the next chapters.
