She never could have won without gourd, and she would have died had he not blocked the curse for her. Plus other prep as well.
Big dudes entire contribution this fight fight was hitting some stragglers and taking care of the dwarf
This entire battle works on the fact that every person in the guild is a conceited idiot, even though we were only ever told its the opposite
I don’t think you understand how the poison works. It’s a slow acting poison (it had to be because poison resistance would’ve reacted to a stronger poison and alerted them) that’s been building up in their system for several days, whereas she’s been coming and going so she’s not as exposed. Also, and probably more importantly, she has light magic which lets her nullify any poison that she knows the structure of.

heck, she literally killed that First party of adventurers a dozen chapters ago by poisoning herself and them at the same time. But she was fine because she used light magic to negate it.

this was also spelled out when the princess treated her injury after the assassin cut her. She had to explain the poison and its ingredients to the princess for her to negate the poison.

The most historically accurate thing that can be compared to an assassin guild are the ninjas.
And while they were well trained, they were absolutely not made to go 1vs1 against a samurai. They were supposed to be unnoticed, their victims were supposed to notice them only after being stabbed or poisoned. And after doing what they did, they were supposed to run away unnoticed as they came.
But is the surprise factor that made Aria able to pull off this plan. And is a very powerfull factor.
Ok maybe is not completely realistic, but come on... what is realistic about this manga? Is about a loli with magic powers that is the protagonist of an hentai visual novel for fujoshi, but decided to become an assassin. Some exageration here and there is expected.
And considering that 99% of the other manga would have their protagonist smashing through the door, spout some nonsense about friendship, and just punch in the face everyone, i really have no major complaint about this outcome.
Your premise is incorrect. Ninjas didn't work like this assassins guild at all. There used to be villages with people sharing this "ninja culture" which worked basically as a big family of mercenaries for a specific warlord in the region. Having a separate branches across the country and working independently is completely unheard of for ninjas. Not to mention, they were espionage/reconnaissance units, not assassins.

This assassins guild operates way closer to how gangs or mafias in europe have worked for centuries and that should make it much easier for you to see the comparison with soldiers.

Also, keep in mind I never questioned realism here. I was just making fun of a previous poster who was making silly stereotypes

Only a person who do not fear death will attempt such a lethal trap that does not have a guaranteed escape. Aria's instincts are very animalistic I like how it grows stronger.

This chapter inspired me to read ahead in the LNs to see how lethal she ends up.

God damn. She's stone cold.
