I guess there isn't a repelling stone then because otherwise those monsters wouldn't have attacked.

@starburst98 I believe the MC was thinking the repelling stone works inside the castle walls.
Anyone know what chapter this is on the novel?
edit: the end of vol2 ch14 is exactly when they reach the fortress.

Was it the defense team or the search team that suddenly raped and pillaged their camp way back at the start?

Something isn't sitting right with this whole situation.
1, why are the knights initially surrounding the "honored guests" who are sitting on the ground?
2, why is she withholding information, and asking people she just met to blindly follow the group? It is implied they are there to protect/rescue them, but it isn't really established confidently given how the "honored guests" reacted to the monsters. It is like the knights never proved they even could protect them yet. And who would say no to following a group of knights who are so quick to show aggression?
3, this is possibly a TL error, or an overlooked detail, but she knew his name somehow when he never actually gave it. Could be that creature, but nothing is shown for sure why.
4, what is that creature? The knight was super quick to end the conversation so it was never explained or verbally questioned but couldn't they have talked while walking? And why does only she have one? Is it because she is the leader? What is its purpose besides being a questionably reliable, half-assed monster detector?
4.1, does the anti-monster barrier count towards that creature? Or is it something like "tames" don't get blocked?
5, she talks as if it is already expected to find them. It somewhat seems like the castle is waiting for them, like they knew they would find them, or that this isn't as uncommon as it seems.
6, her unit looks to be only made up of heavily armored melee knights. No archers, scouts, mages, healers, etc. Kind of odd given that this "should" be a patrol squad in a forest. It seems more like a squad of bodyguards, expected to defend VIPs than a monster hunting unit.
7, going back to the knights surrounding the "honored Guests", if they are so honored, why are you all facing them with weapons drawn? If you're protecting them from dangers, wouldn't facing outward be more effective?
8, are these "cheat using" students allied with the knights or are just there by coincidence? And if by coincidence, why are they in the area in the first place?
All of this seems too suspicious/convenient. It seems like the knights are not as much protecting people, as they are defending hostages. They not only expected them to be there, but came prepared enough to escort them with a custom outfitted unit. Maybe they expect it because they are responsible for bringing them there in the first place, and are now just collecting them?

@icarushector Its the defense team or just the people left behind afaik.
All if not most of the cheat user go into search team as they have the combat abilities if I remember correctly.

@JavelinJoe
at this point in time
1) They are in the middle of hostile territoy and have a perimeter, the less spaced out you are the better
2) because its easier to inform a group then 1 at a time
3) its possible they were given a description of everyone, and they are just that good with memory, or possibly they have an 'appraisal' style skill that gives them at the very least limited info
4-4.1)
5) they likely found a few before and know there are alot more potentially in there
6)100% depends on if they see scouts as useful in this situation, as for mage or healer, outside of bullshit class reasons, a healer who uses magic to heal and a mage would likely still wear the same armor and train sword/weapons because they need to buy time for help to help them.
7) partially due to being in hostile grounds, partially to keep any of the guests who may think of starting shit to prevent them from starting shit
8) the cheat using kids, if they were at the fort, were there because they discovered it and decided working with them was better then not. this would also explain every of the above points, like they weren't on patrol, they were search and rescue, and they are honored guests because of the power of their cheat weilding friends.
and my opinions based on the raws

I honestly cant say, I have seen the raws passed this point but I had no idea there was a barrier in the first place so that should tell you its either not effective at keeping monsters out or it just does the work of a scout doing their job and warning.

the next few chapters are going to be a slog, they seem to be world building chapters but they were fairly boreing to see even in raw form. and if memory servers this is going to be till chapter 18-22 I forget where the raw was at when I looked ahead. but more or less it looks like we will get info on the world soon

@JavelinJoe don't forget, this fort isn't too far from the old base the kids made. Certainly not far enough to explain why the expedition group took so long to come back. It feels like the people of this fort or their superiors had a hand in summoning the bunch. Might even know why the nonexpedition cheat users all snapped.
I bet the critter identifies people with cheats.

Looking at the raws, and not being able to read them, it seems like near nothing happens, then shit hits the fan hard, if I could read it I would guess its an exposition dump for the world they are in, mixed with who they can and cant trust, its not bad, but it does make for a rather bland few chapters to just look at.

wonder when the whole raping and murdering of the other students is gonna come up.
@alidan
exposition dump, character interactions or just random nonsense?
@starburst98
probably has a range limit.

@boag
Really hard to tell without knowing the language, I believe some characters were introduced, just going by what looked to happen, setting up who are the good guys and bad guys and ending with a thorough shit hits the fan to make up for lost time.
compared to the prior chapters, where if I looked at raws, I would have some clue whats happening, and it would still be interesting to look at, the next few are probably what akagi would be like without a translation, you know things are happening but no idea what.

Next few chapters will have quite a bit of world building and a lot of information and catching up with the situation. Many things become clear and a lot of questions will be brought up, I don't like the art all that much but I'm liking the way the story is being treated and giving almost the same feeling that the novel did.
Thanks for the chapter
