Lunatica is so cute 😂
"Cute" has a weird range for some people (maybe some nations). Lunatic is Hot AF (but a hotness best appreciated from somewhere far away from her melee range), but she is not "cute".

Wait...were they sisters?

I thought they were lovers, even the past selves flashback a couple chapters ago looked more like a lovers suicide (wishing to be together again) than a sibling suicide (which just seems...far less likely) when they were shown about to jump off the building.

Did I miss something or are the other comments wrong?
From Japan? Siblings AND lovers is an obvious possibility.

Also it's possible that they're sisters in this life even if they weren't in the previous life. Though, it seems like they were reincarnated in their current forms, so... ?

I'm guessing she's going to use great resonance to get both the daughter and another hero killed.

I'm personally leaving the name as it is, because it's not wrong imo, especially in French, because the word serial Killer doesn't exist in my language and if I wanted to have the pun I'd have to adapt the name in French like: Tuerri,Tuetis,Tuerie,"That's why I've included a translation note" if I wanted to have the pun for Serial Killer perfectly in English I could use Seriaki (serial killer) if people wants. I hope I've been understood
It is just a bit awkward is all. The original kanji for her name is シルキィ (Shirukii), the "yi" at the end doesn't really make much sense. It looks like "Shirukyi" was a translation mistake made by the original first chapter poster, who I believe MTL'd it, and everyone who came after them just kept it in. Personally if it were me I would either use Silky, Serki (for the serial killer pun, though that's a little too on the nose), or Shirukii.

I would definitely not translate it as Seriaki, it isn't in the original JP and wouldn't fit at all. I'm a native English speaker, and I also translate Japanese, so I would definitely take this advice from one translator to another, since English isn't your first language.

I can anticipate the plot twist where only Silsil's head is required for Great Resonance or someone uses magic to bring back Silsil in some capacity so Milmil is a big threat again.
(Possibly got the two names mixed up).

unless the author gives an official romanization, that's a matter of interpretation, but hey, I'm not going to debate on a subject like this, everyone does what they want o/

I would have mercy killed her as well. At this point she's suffering a fate worse than death. She now has to live with the pain of losing her loved one (lover or sister or whatever), just like the relatives of the people they killed. But still, I'd just off her.

I interpreted the promise that if both of them are killed, Lunatica is free. The promise (and her low wisdom stat) keeps her "employed".
