I'm guessing that's one of the Harpies that survived the attack on the town. Now it's a Goblin Harpy Lord ruling it's own nest, and once it sees the MC it'll go for payback.

They don't even need testimonies, they literally witnessed the duke threaten and coerce his populace. Why even bother listening at that point? Just take him down.

And as usual, the truth office is useless until the MC and his group come to clean things up. Should just disband their organization already, they do more harm than good.

@icekatze

This is why checks and balances should exist (in theory, anyways). The fact that they're not even allowed to verify each other is extremely suspicious to say the least. I would probably go as far as saying that the creation of the truth office was to exploit their rules to a T, and allow corrupt nobles and others to take advantage of such.

What a dumb plot. If they can literally see the truth and lies, then they don't need testimony. Also as I said last chapter with as little security as there was going into the noble's house, what was keeping the townspeople from going some place else and telling a different truth officer what was going on. If you can trust any truth officers then there is no point to the truth palace in the first place.

They've found the worst human being in existence, and they still let a corrupt institution colluding with the said human being take him off their hands.

Hahaha. They are so powerless.

@gyn2-3 for this arc yes he is. Starting next chapter Katsura Kasuga resumes his writting duties.

@icekatze the children are given 2 choices. Become a tool who only does what its told aka a "lie detector" or find their own path of justice. If they choose to live as tools they are warranted an easy life since they will be protected and will have a safe job forever. If they decide to find their own path of justice like Tilika and the master they will find many, many problems so its their choice what they become.

> it's gotta be one of the most easily corruptible systems of law enforcement imaginable.

Agree, the ones who keep them in check are the nobles who would be the most affected if the truth officers go out of hand.

And they are held accountable of their actions, if a truth officer ever lies his/her eye is removed and his/her title is stripped. They have a rule not to use their eyes against each other unless one part is on trial. This chapter they mentioned that a truth officer was demoted and if Tilika coup had failed she would have literally got beheaded.

I wish we can forcibly make politicians hold accountable like that. I guess that's why fiction exists.

Next is chimera ant arc?

Fate brings forth a new harpy waifu

FTFY (if the trend continues, anyways)

@degenerateafro @broadsword80 The part about requiring testimonies isn't a mechanical need; it's pure politics. It's a roundabout way of saying, "We have the social backing and/or military power to kick your shit in seven ways to saturday if you try to cover this up."

On the flip side, it is a convenient loophole for people attempting to hide the truth. If the author stops dicking around long enough to write a quick backstory, we could get a nice chapter or two showing how such a ridiculous state of affairs came to be.

> Duke : "Oh Wait, that eft eyes of yours"
Tilica: "The is FBI's Criminal Lens.... Your under arrest for being a loli-hunter...."

> Well, Duke Deltro illustration was likeable to Heichi of Tekken Series.
We all want to whooped his back until the game will say "End of Round"

> Tilica -> Magic Eyes > Truth Officer > Justice - Loooooooooooooolllliiii
This is the the perfect requirements for applying the FBI and to be a field officer

> MC: "Tilica, Is there any type of magic would you like to learn?"
My advise to tilica was to learn the Sensor and Siren Skill
Sensor: An Alarm that was needed by any of the FBI officer when someone was targetting aloli
Siren: A law enforcement sound that which is so loud so that every loli will hear it and they would be screaming until the officer hears them for a rescue...

Wasn't that already shown in the previous chapter? It was only a few pages, but it explained that in the old days the Truth Palace had far more powers to investigate nobles. And because this is a feudal setting in which nobles have their own armies, they revolted and killed all Truth Officers. The king rebuilt the Truth Palace, but with new rules that prevented overreach, such as forgiving minor offenses and the need for testimonies before conducting an official investigation.

@Misticsan I might be over-reacting a little, but I was hoping for more than that - which is where "chapter or two" comes in. A quick page-&-a-half blurb of "Yeah, they killed almost all my predecessors and beat them into submission" is rather lazy. If future chapters have this TO/noble tension as a consistent background theme I'm willing to let it slide, but I'm sick of authors introducing a rather serious plot point only to completely forget it after the heroes have retrieved the McMuffin, defeated the evil store manager, saved McDonalds, and fucked off to never return.

The same problem happens a lot whenever "beastkin", "elves", "demihumans", "nobles" or "religion" is introduced. Author wants to race-bait / class-bait / religion-bait the audience for more money, implements a flat-earth-idiot version of "racism / social status / religion is bad mmmmkay", uses it as a cheap trick to prove how morally superior the MC is (despite suffering no noteworthy consequences for bucking a long-established societal trend), then completely abandons it

Shouldn't the MC still be dressed like a girl, though?

thought the comments would be about the introduction of another enemy harem member. instead i saw a discourse over good vs bad writing. guess i know what i think about when reading this if i didn't even consider any of that.

@vessalius Ironically, harems and non-human waifus are so stupidly common in manga it's barely worthy of commentary nowadays. Keep reading and you'll join us in the ranks of the jaded soon enough :p
