I'm not sure if I'm the only one feeling this, but the story is going all over the place. The story at first was just him doing things so that he can buy newer and bigger ships. I want it to go back to that, more simple life, less of this hiding and political sh*t.
Don't worry. It'll happen.

Wataru is bringing them in a ton of money and supplies. And you do not mess with your golden goose. The Guild master knows this.
Also, the guild master already did wataru a MASSIVE solid by helping him go against the shady merchant and his noble cronies

What's there even to test the durability of? Can't MC just deny the spear permission to hit? Did the author already forget that?

I'm guessing that publically showing off an indestructible ship can gain a lot of investment. It's still dangerously close to messing with his goose and a lot can go wrong. What if it gets out that Wataru is the Mage? That could be enough for Wataru to say "Can't trust you, see you never." What if the boat is destroyed? It won't, but the guild master doesn't know it won't with 100% certainty.

It's a high-risk high-reward move.
Actually, I see that as a High-Risk No-Reward.
Wataru knows who has an inkling that he's the mage: Girasole and suspects the guild knows as well. If the cat's out, he knows that Girasole wouldn't do him that dirty so he, by elimination, would blame the guild, end all deals with them and leave. There are more nations and guilds elsewhere, so he only has to pick one (and I think he already considered that).

So, the girls know he won't even get touched by anything while he's on the ship... why are they acting like he can actually get hurt?
During the war ark, didn't his ship block the "magic that can't be blocked?"

Thanks for the TL
Probably a (all too common) case of the author forgetting the details of his own setup... Even if they let the guy board, one of the stipulations is that no one on board a ship can harm anyone else.

If the MC had any brains he'd have bailed on the guild master leaving a note saying something along the lines of "You forced my hand, I'll no longer be trading with you. Any goodwill that has been built between us is gone. Goodbye and good luck." I mean it's not like he couldn't just fuck off and trade with literally any other nation.

But he's a pushover with no real business nor ethical understanding.

NGL, I agree with those above who say he should have said No to the testing. He has nothing to prove and gains nothing from the test. In fact he looses quite a lot. The author might hand wave this farce away, but in participating it raises the awareness of the lords and leadership of his peeson.

FFS there are two guildmasters and a knight from the southern Duke acting as observers and an S Rank fuckboi conducting the test. This exactly the kind of attention Wataru wanted to avoid. And after the test is completed there will be another Nation of idiots that will think they can give Wataru quests and Missions as if he was one of their servents.

Grammar and translations are iffy, generally readable, but on page 6 how did you even get "Oh, so this is what the famous Lucca pavilion can do?" from "ルッカ防衛の報酬か"? It makes no sense in context and even MTL translates it correctly to "Rewards for the defence of Lucca", the whole reason they've come to visit him.

I know it won't happen, but I kind of want Wataru to let his boat get damaged/destroyed by the S-rank guy. That way Wataru can turn to the guild master and ask for compensation or whatever.

It won't happen though, because Wataru is a spineless wet sock.
Better yet, "You destroyed one of the mages boats, holy shit is he going to be pissed. He literally just defeated a whole empire. I'm out of here, you guys are on your own. I'll let him know that it was you chucklefucks though~"

Thanks for the translation... I feel like there is still problem with the translation specially with the "i, my, you" nouns...
