Mezametara Saikyou Soubi to Uchuusen-mochi datta node, Ikkodate Mezashite Youhei Toshite Jiyuu ni Ikitai - Ch. 53.2

[Tamult]

Is there anything in the WN (or LN) about Elmas ship? Way back in chapters 5-8, we know it was wrecked when it crashed into the military ship, and she ended up owing 3 million Enel but couldn't pay it back in time cause her ship was being repaired. In chapter 8, Hiro says he paid what she owed in full, and after that there no mention of her ship ever again (at least so far). So what happened to her ship? Was it used/sold off as part of the payment? Is it in storage after it was repaired?

It's like the ship just disappears with no explanation why. I thought from the crash that the ship was totalled beyond repair as it seemed like the only thing left was the cockpit since it was made extra strong. But she does say later the ship was being repaired, and then poof, no more ship in the story.

The ship was basically totaled, and was a flying deathtrap. It isn't in storage, the Krishna wasn't large enough. I'm pretty sure it was sold off as parts to decrease her debt, but it was a very small chunk. Elma does end up getting a new ship, but it won't be for a while yet.

In the Light novel Elma says that consolidating all of her assets which is (obviously money and) the crashed ship combined with all her cargo including even the booze she had there stored she's short the amount that Hiro paid off.
Which means that she owed more than what Hiro paid and how deep in the red she was with it.
She also said that she could've paid it off if only she had more time than they've given her, since she couldn't even have repaired her ship before the deadline finished.
There's also more details about it but I won't mention it since we'll probably see it in the next arc anyway. Or the one after.

So the scene of Serena as an Admiral from the beginning of this manga likely isn't going to happen anymore? That sucks.

Spoiler

It's specifically mentioned that being a noble high-ranking officer (at the time she joins Hiro's crew she's only one-two ranks off being an Admiral already), she can be called back to duty at any time if it's considered necessary.

And there's intimations that there might be another major war with the Vereverim (or however you spell it) federation, because the incidents with them keep escalating.

 

[frostmonolith]

She kinda gave up when he mentioned about her nobility. She knows that she’s in a bind of responsibility and can’t co-op with him that much unless it’s an urgent need.

The wording would have helped greatly. Not sure if it's there in the original Japanese of the manga, but in the English translation it leaves it up in the air.

It's Hiro that asks her how much she's short by, and then Elma that states "even if I use all my funds and savings", with no mention of the ship (or booze or cargo, etc). Her next sentence, "I can't even make any money because my ship won't be ready for another two weeks", makes it seem as if her ship is already in the process of being repaired.

Hence why I wondered where her ship disappeared to. Thanks for that info from the LN!

 

[Seraphus]

It's nice to be able to work together like that; you know where you stand, that way.

 

[Foreverkidd]

Kinda sucks they never get together

Lemme tell you something from the Web Novel.

Spoiler: Serena and Hiro

They actually do, hell they even get it on even though it took a while.

 

[Llangion]

You can find probably all the links in here.
You can find them in the google play store as well.

Thank you!

 

[PabloRoshi]

Her being able to have kids with him was mentioned in passing just don't remember when. I think it was a casual convo during one of their breaks between or during a job of when Hiro would eventually settle down.

I was loooking for Elma's ship fate and I came across this other one in Vol7 Ch5...

Spoiler: Part of the conversation

“Yes. Machine intelligence is recognized as having human rights, after all. If you so desire, I am even able to bear your child.”

“…Seriously?”

“Seriously. However, it is a complicated process, and there are quite a few fees involved.”

“Technology is amazing…”

 

[megaguil]

Everything I want to say has already been said I’m this thread. This series is so goddamn good. I’m always hyped for a new chapter.

Thanks so much for the translation!

 

[Snuffy.Flicks]

Spoiler

That full story comes later, but her debt was really high and she sold it and her cargo off, Hiro only paid a little bit of her fine, that she couldn't cover.

 

[Snuffy.Flicks]

She's going to be the main wife, and they are all going to live on a new habitable planet together re-populating it.

Spoiler

Second main wife

 

[Lenasien]

Kinda sucks they never get together

Spoiler: Apparently

they have time go together....but not on ideal situation. Atleast, we know that two nobles are pinning on him

I can't wait when she's official part of a harem. She's by far my favorite girl the moment we saw her.

My favorite still two girl as his early partner. Elma can be reliable as senior + Mimi as trader

 

[Lenasien]

She's going to be the main wife, and they are all going to live on a new habitable planet together re-populating it.

Spoiler: Selena?

Nah, she is 2nd main wives. Sadly Elma and Mini can't be number one or two wife thanks to noble hierarchy

 

[Duck-]

NO! I caught up 😭

 

[SanKaVLD]

Well... this will be a great expedition right? Im looking forward to this Expedition Arc

 

[Firemorfox]

Not yet, she's gotta sweeten the deal further, or get in a situation where he's forced to ignore her massive red flags and pull her into the harem.

at some point he's gonna outrank her in nobility and no longer have an excuse, yep.

 

[Lyncoris]

Spoiler: Selena?

Nah, she is 2nd main wives. Sadly Elma and Mini can't be number one or two wife thanks to noble hierarchy

Spoiler: Spoiler

Eh tehnically mimi can be first wive, cause of her bloodline. Iirc even the emperor dont have a problem if she want to become a princess. It is just that mimi want a civilian life and with hiro.
