I look at it again, and seeing he can manipulate a massive amount of sand alone and still got exiled feels like weak setting.

Someone might can only create and manipulate fart, but if he can control and manipulate massive amounts of farts, that's still scarily powerful.
Probably still makes more sense in this setting if this person get exiled, as a royalty that controls fart would be deemed as disgraceful.

Man this one had me at the start cause imma sucker for kingdom building stuff but idk it just feels kinda half assed. Like it feels like a bubbly yay fun adventure trying to claim it's a kingdom building story. Like I'd think that at this point in the story I'd be reading about creative uses of sand abilities to create the infrastructure for long term living. Instead he runs off to help a humanoid ant and somehow knows the other ant has a demon and just removes it and now he has a naked ant lady and man that are now his somehow? Not to mention the zero explanation for his magic stuff he just found out his element is sand before being kicked out where are all these spells from? I may be nitpicking but wouldn't it have been better to have him learning interesting ways he can use this magic he just found out about rather than just already somehow knowing these pre-determined spells for everything?

From page "112" the translation became quite messy with many errors, might be good to go over it another time.

Also you seem to need better raws... I sadly could also find none in better quality on free raw sites...

Sorry for not being able to help with that... still thanks for the chapter~

No probably not we will fix it later maybe it's the cleaner also about the dialogue is it really that small? I think it's alright
Hey, just to be clear, I really appreciate the work you and your group are doing on this manga. It's great that someone is taking the time to translate it. I don’t mean this in a negative way at all, and I’m definitely not trying to say my way is better, but I tried typesetting it a bit differently, slightly bigger. Just wanted to share it so you can see the difference for yourself.

Left is mine and right is yours.

Of course, it had to cross the generic japanese-fantasy bingo card.
Human-form monsters, and only the female one is naked.


It could be seen another way: it can basically manipulate small particles of solid material in bulk, regardless of the actual material.

Note that some people here have compared Horus to an isekai'ed Gaara, who can also manipulate some gold dust at some point. So it's far from unprecedented.
Sand is basically tiny pieces of minerals. So it would be a form of specialized earth magic.

Also: go go gadget sand golem!

ants in deserts can be rather aggressive after all they are protecting their resources. so the white ants should have a form of protection too.
but hey a naked woman! :huh:

Now i am curious. What kind of sand that no longer considered sand? Does mythril grinds to small particles considered sand? What about gold sand just like from Rasa The Fourth Kazekage? Or any metal, crystal, gemstones as long as it turned to sand like it's also controllable? What about bone dust?

Oh, i can see the author weaseling out the MC skill to make him stupidly overpowered.
sand= gaara, iron sand = Third kazekage, next is gold sand like Rasa that would be funny.

sand basically small earth/rock. why not make earth element? ahh but that too boring and already claimed.

Sand basically just subclass of earth magic. By that logic, he should be able to do earth magic.

The little ant characters are so cute. So I bet one of the honey ants gets attached to him and becomes human like the queen.


It’s probably one of the queen’s million ant daughters who gets a name down the line.
I thought it’d be the new daughter of queen and king

Even as a gooner, waifu-only, and inject-fanservice-into-my-veins person like me, if the author chooses to make the queen naked, then the author should make the king naked too. Please be consistent!

But 3 chapters in, and... Yeah, there isn't much here. I expected the MC's sand power to be quite OP, but not in this instant too. Shallow characters and rushed plot development everywhere.

Hmm... Added to reading list and wait for 3 more chapters before further assessment.
