Ah, yes! It's not an Isekai without being an orphan. Though, the way they integrated this trope is honestly genius.

I don't know what it is, but I feel like there must be a German word for appreciating that sweet-sweet comeuppance that Sonya dished out just by washing her face.

Honestly though
I did not suspect the fact that everyone is a mandatory orphan

Along with the whole, striving to be anti racist but gives special treatments

So i guess this only applies to the prisoners right

This is just a theory but I think Observer and Swordmaiden both live in different countries. (Either that or the cities just each have insanely different cultures.)

Swordmaiden is in the city of Galaxis within (what I'm assuming to be) the country of Stellaris. Meanwhile Observer is being held in Shattered Lake Prison in the country of Blood Moon. Which would maybe(?) explain why Swordmaiden has a known mother which isn't something allowed in Blood Moon.

........I'm sorry, but what the fuck.

From silly stuff to sucky "forced anti racism" and now a crazy ass lore drop of how much that world is truly a twist smoke and mirrors illusion that battling to the death seems more free

This entire isekai is trying to subvert a bunch of isekai / fantasy tropes, and it's honestly working well in its favor. Even though there's not a whole lot of plot, the overall worldbuilding is pretty solid and fresh.

I’ve read the novel up to chapter 700+. I’ll keep the spoilers to a minimum, but the characters are separated by different worlds or realms (with different rules and laws yes), and you can only travel between them on special occasions.

Also this novel world view is a heavy mix of Utopia and Dystopia lol just be prepared on how messed up the Blood Moon Kingdom really is.

Don't forget: All races are equal, but some are more equal then others.
Also, even a perfect system is run by people.

 

[letmereadmangas]

that's one heck of a dystopia....at least for me.
