Ryuu to Yuusha to Haitatsunin Shikaban - Ch. 3.3 - An Old Tale of Senpai I

Thanks for the chapter.

 

[hanfeizi]

I was expecting that there would be a plot twist, that the elder was the grandmaster of the fish-hearted Order.

 

[cryum]

Not surprised at all.

Hope sigurd can keep the elf company for a long time

Couldn't expect different background for Sigurd. Thanks for the translation!

Honestly, Sigurd was in the right. The best fighter in the group isn't necessarily going to be a good leader. It's the Peter Principle: an employee who's good at their job will get promoted to a new job requiring new skills, and they'll keep getting promoted until they reach a position where they don't have the required skills.

Also, the knightess looks like this member of the organization, so maybe we're also seeing the backstory of an unexplored character.

No Sigurd, hit her! Hit on Yoshida!

When the grandmaster is alive, Sigurd can probably learn management from him. It's not like the grandmaster himself just know how to do management from birth, people need learn and experience it first, so just plain out refusing is probably not good since I assume he'll get better pay and privilege.

It gets complicated after the grandmaster is dead, but Sigurd accepted the position before running away, so eh.

I wonder if the grandmaster is secretly an orc. He definitely has the physique.

 

[Meijin]

Agree with Sigurd here. It's classic Peter principle if he were to be moved up to management. Why take an S class attacker just to turn him into a D class pseudo-supporter?

 

[VINT64]

Yay! Finally Sigurd's backstory! I kinda had the general image, and it happened to be just like that.
But man, his responsibility-evading skills are through the roof! He even abandoned his order and led to its dissolve. Wow. Not even I can compare to that.
And yeah, his big-eared squire in love on last page is so cute. Love her

 

[xpuc]

Unless the knightess rapidly leveled up after Sigurd blinded her, it's pretty impressive that he could actually defeat someone who was at last 20 levels higher than him.

 

[Emanon0]

Glad this isn't one of the extra that was uploaded in the main serie.
Now I really wonder if one day they will finally explore all the other high leveled discarded knights and hero hinted.
That would be so cool!

 

[Don_Gusto]

I'm glad we all agree that senpai is in the right here lmao

 

[AxeBurningfire]

I get you, sigurd. I get you...

 

[ThrystaVindr]

Huh I thought there would be more long-term injury involved in his backstory, considering he was supposed to be doing rehab for like years and years

(Also that's an insane epithet for the grandmaster)
