Ore no Shibou Flag ga Todomaru Tokoro wo Shiranai - Ch. 75 - Something More Important Than Life.

I am wondering what the manga will do when it reaches the point the novel stopped at, will they just say it's going on hiatus or admit it's been dropped?

Normally hiatus, or manga finishes at certain arc, or in some rare cases, the manga continues with the original writer writing for the story

Thanks for the translation!

Good lord are we still in hiatus? I remember loving the Manga, reading the Ln fan translation years ago, and then being told the author just stopped writing and to go praise the story on Twitter to maybe encourage him (I didn't have Twitter at the time so I just had to move on). I figured by now, it'd be finished.

yeah there is absolutely no shot that the draining sword has this severe an effect on him. i'm willing to bet he probably hasn't even been using the sword much aside from that one time in front of the girls to ensure justus doesn't find out about it, he's a monster even without the sword and he has pretty much unlimited potential due to inhabiting harold's body especially given his knowledge of the game. typically life draining items in fiction aren't a danger so long as you use them sparingly, maybe that's the case here. regardless chances are he's convinced justus that he's only as powerful as he is due to the sword so that justus underestimates him and allows him more free reign as a result

Seems like hes only using it to quickly one hit some troublesome enemies and thats it
No way that has much of a noticeable effect

Hi again, time to jump on to mizuki-senpai no koi uranai and then try to sleep.

If this is what's possible haphazardly on a phone on your own, then I really need to up my game as an editor.

I have no idea what Harold is cooking since the timeskip, like the story was about avoiding death flags but suddenly he has a sword that will make him die before turning 20 ok bro

also surely spending 5 years under the main villain would allow him to already have an entire operation set up to kill him, but for some reason he is trying to make the hero party and stuff, while also acting like he doesnt know the villain's intentions, like surely this was in the game right? he knows what the villain is cooking right? why does he need the informant investigating the villain?

I have said it before, but I don't believe that for a moment. Like you said, it makes no sense Harold would kill himself when the whole idea was to avoid death flags. Plus he was so powerful to begin with, and would naturally grow more powerful growing up, that why would he even need the vitality-eating sword, except for very special circumstances? It was actually smart to use it once in the presence of the girls, so that if Justus talked with them, they would confirm that his using it, making Justus happy.

Of course the worse alternative is that the story that became witless and Harold has actually been killing himself with the sword. It would then be up to Leafa and Erica to somehow restore his vitality. I really hope this isn't the case.

The previous chapter already seemed to reveal Justus, at this point, isn't even the main active villain. He ought to grow into the biggest evil later, but perhaps the other villains play a much bigger role than the simple game plot would have indicated. Like the army general. So, Harold might still be in the process of trying to figure out how much needs to be done and how many people are involved. Besides, I don't believe Justus is weak. He should have his own, solid defences. Not to mention the whole kingdom would try to save him, should something happen.

1) He's not actually using the sword, Justus is throwing Harold at situations where he thinks he's forced to use the sword to accomplish them but he's been minmax grinding so much that he doesn't need the sword, though Justus doesn't know that.

2) "Kill the main villain" isn't the sole objective here, that's not the only thing the hero party does and they need to solve other problems around the world, and there's specific events that still need to happen. Reaching the main game's true ending is the only way to be sure to solve everything and make no mistakes Justus is the big bad with zero morals or remorse no matter his sugar coated retelling of events in the previous chapter, but simply killing him (even if he was killable without an entire party of people), wouldn't magically solve everything and would only serve to massively derail things away from the game's true ending.

Eh?

I'm saying your editing, while not superb, would be pretty damn good for somebody on PC who's taking their time a bit.

In the end, Justus is, funnily enough, why most people I know dropped the WN, because he's like some "heroes" in party exile stories, who just refuse to bloody die and wear out their welcome extremely quickly.

I hate Justus. The writer has done a very good job of making me hate Justus. And it's precisely because he's still not dead that a lotta folks drop out of frustration (plus, y'know, hiatus, so we may never know)

Is that bad storytelling? Not really. It's eliciting the same feelings that the protagonist's side are feeling, and that's a success.

But holy hell does it succeed too well for me.

Im assuming Harold has some kind of counter to the sword's negative effects and his lifespan is just fine.

My crazy theory is that the sword has just been using up OG harold’s (the story character) life energy while the reincarnated guy is bing chilling

 

[AlaAlba]

It’s time to do the ol have his child before he dies in battle trope. You must keep the bloodline going.

 

[CrimsonNanashi]

Anything is possible as long as I sacrifice my sanity sleep and time

Just a heads up, it hasn’t been established that El is a girl or not. Might want to use they instead of she for the future chapters

 

[TheProtectorOfPureHeartedGirls]

LEAFA? NEW HEROINE? I LIKE HER VERY MUCH... I ALREADY SHIPPED HER WITH THE MC.

That's how I feel anyway.

 

[Shinigamisama]

All because he showed some abs a few chapters ago.

 

[haoxin]

Yeah with that look on page 14, I'm convinced the last chapter was Justus retelling his "story" and not a flashback or we would have the black pages.

 

[Pumpki]

Ty ty for translations but ya doin't sac sleep for this lmao

Much appreciated tho!

 

[Odious1]

So, does it make it clear later on? Why did he wear the uniform to begin with? It seems really out of place as is, and I kinda expected to see an answer by now.

I don't know, I think he already deviated from his original purpose to just avoid the death flag since he decided to save frieri team, that arc have so many characters dev from Harold. Also I like kaarme explanation
