Nou Aru Ogre ga Tsuno wo Kakusu - Ch. 12.1

Ngl the horn doesn’t look that big. I wonder if Rama could just have bangs cover it

She needs a hairpin that covers it, just attach the pin to both the horn and hair.

The only thing I can think of here is how she managed to throw a piece of cloth at a piece of magic hurtling at the guy. That'd have to be a pretty heavy cloth to not just instantly stop in the air after being thrown.

The horn is too small for anyone to care about. It's just a forehead pimple.

no size shaming please

It's interesting that the sword rejected the vampire. To be fair, demon lord candidates were supposed to gather a decision would be made on who would become the next demon lord. I was under the impression there would be a tournament and the winner would be chosen. I guess the vampire was thinking that recovering the demon lord's sword was a sufficient achievement to be recognised, but he's really just bypassing the process of making all other demons recognise him as the demon lord and apparently the sword can sense that and reject him.

watch her pick up reve like it's nothing next ch hahaha

Will she? She has healing magic but no innate recovery ability like a vampire and it doesn't seem like she thinks that she needs extra power to defeat the vampire, so why would she risk getting burned by the sword in the middle of the fight? The vampire isn't going to stand there and let her pick it up either if she somehow decides to try.

Also, re-reading previous chapters, the hero had a dream of the goddess and then Krau showed up by his side. If Reve is anything like that, then there are no signs that any demon has been chosen yet.

Even after the fight has ended, I don't think she'll be all that interested in wielding the demon lord's sword, nor of trying to bring it back to the demons and empower the next demon lord. She hasn't really stated what he own goals were; she's just traveling to present herself as a demon lord candidate but it's not like she herself wants to become the demon lord. She's more interested in finding out the location of the hero sword actually.

Who knows, maybe she'll dual wield the hero and demon lord's sword. XD

I honestly would prefer if she wielded the hero's sword again since it would force her to reveal her past life but the story will prob have her wield reve

she absolutely bodied the first vampire and prevented him from further destruction. if the humans shun her at this point, theyre not worthy of rescue anyway.

True, but that's from our perspective since we know her story. And it's not always so simple. I mean, granted she saved their butts but if Rama actually beats up two Vampires, picks up the Demon Lord's sword and then show herself as a non-human, right away she could be seen as the lesser of two evils.

The foe of my enemy is not always my friend.

And that's the tip of the iceberg. Right now no one knows, that she is not just any demon but a bonafide Demon Lord Candidate. And her wielding that sword would make her not just some candidate but the most likely successor. That's a whole different story altogether. In a world like that, where demons kill humans and Demon Lords are èssentially living calamities? It would be better to hide her identity from the normal folks. It's good Al knows now. He should be able to make a decision without prejudice here. And from there on, we'll see how it goes.
