it started as a really casual slice of life and i was okay with that but now it's turning into a common hero party vs demon king manga and its even better.

Awesome run here, it's done in a much more straightforward manner than is typical but lots and lots of happy intelligence from various players that somehow makes it feel a bit more special. The humans were not in fact entirely fooled by the demons at all, they actually gave the entire situation a bit of thought and put two and two together to get four for once, though they still underestimated their opponents (or at least it appears to be that way but maybe that too will turn out to just be a front). The demons in turn didn't hesitate for a second to change tacks.

Fern and Stark though are still showing their relatively lack of experience. Both have dealt with fairly strong foes by this point, but aren't battle hardened yet either. They discerned correct that the lead demon's attention was entirely on Frieren, but incorrectly assumed that was because he was so skilled/powerful he considered them not worth considering rather than that it's simply Frieren has history and reacted in a unique way, and he was reacting to that not a sense of power.

Already can't wait for the next chapter!

Edit: Also, I'd forgotten Chapter 2 Page 10 from back when Frieren first met Fern:

She truly is near undetectable to mana sensory
I don't think it's really come up again since then has it? But that could be a huge advantage vs demons if they depend heavily on magic sensing to determine threat level. Or for that matter even if they depend on reactions because Fern is such a poker face overall.

More like a genocide. She'll just cast lv. 10 elfsplosion from somewhere the demon army cannot see and be done with it. No speeches.

I believe that demons are strong in comparison with normal human beings, because they know how to use magic and they have no ethics or respect for life, apart from their own (even the death of their companions doesn't seem to worry them the least), so they can be seen as fearsome opponents since there is no empathy that could be found with any other opponent (even a monster could stop fighting to defend their cubs, which the demons certainly wouldn't do).

But against wizards or warriors prepared for their Modus operandi they're probably not that dangerous. Of course, the girl named Aura seems to be a powerful necromancer... nothing that would bother a thousand-year-old elf sorceress who's already fought - and win - against the demon lord, anyway.

@KeiosKod
Those behind Aura are not demons, but beheaded bodies that the demon moves with its necromantic power (from her nickname “the guillotine” and from how they fight her subjects it is understood how she love to decapitate her opponents)

Frieren is not just a great mage but also a great teacher! Leaving those 2 demons for her students to get experience while she finish the boss off.

@Lucrecia I think its more like that demon is individualist, they just care for their own life and work for someone more powerful to save their own life.

This manga have a pretty good drama, the action scenes suck though.

@Chrana what do you mean? A demon is a demon, the sentinel was the human guard who got beheaded. Sentinel is just a title, like "guard"
