[Razz7]

Is this big burly knight a good person or nah? I'm kind of hoping he'll at least be reasonable compared to their father

Well... considering the conversation that we saw, i don't think he's "nice"

Thinking out loud here, but what are the chances that Maglev could be anglicized as Maghreb as well? Is it the same in katakana?

You know what? You might be onto something. The thing is, the author does not necessarily give us the actual spelling of any made-up loanwords, including in this case. Pair that with the reality that Latin–katakana conversion does not have a hard-and-fast rule, and what limits our translation effort is the knowledge of the author and/or the translator.

FYI :
Maghreb (a region in North Africa) is spelled as マグリブ (Maguribu)
The one in the manga is マグレブ (Magurebu)

There’s a non-zero chance that the author is referencing the Maghreb region and simply changed a syllable to make it sound different. I picked Maglev because that’s the closest match based on my own knowledge. Another translation group in the past (FableFrame) used Magref, which is also quite close.

There’s a lot of opinion involved in the scanlation landscape, but Maghreb is actually very, very close. I’d argue that using Maghrib (which is another accepted spelling for the same region) is also correct.

Pg 8 I would like to request some milk.

Some men drown, while other die of thirst.

Mr. Sandman, sand me a man

 

[DrarRV]

Is that MC's mother calling him trash? If so that fckd up.

 

[Heika]

I'm annoyed by how weak the mc is in the middle of a desert. He doesn't even need to be creative. Just the mass sand can kill his enemies. He can swirl diamond sand around to grind his enemies to paste. Swirling iron sand around in a massive tornado would create an electromagnetic field strong enough to rip weapons from hands. If he can make golems then why not make a massive one from gold, coated in iron sand armor; one the size of that giant they met would weigh as much as a small mountain and crush any enemies. There is just no imagination or effective use of powers.

 

[BigPoppaEffy]

He named the sand spirit who kept saying "Sandy"....Sandy. BRILLIANT 🤣 That's some pokemon level ish right there

 

[SpicyBeans]

god the MC's creativity with names, Jesus.

Deidara's made his explosives into birds, and fighting a flying enemy is different. As long as they are close to the ground, he can pile mountains of sand on top to crush anything

Captain got NTR'd by* Onii-chan.

Captain has no chance I wonder what he will make when he finds out I'm honestly surprised she hasn't got a shrine or something in her room back in the empire

 

[legendaryswordsman]

"i better think of a clever name. well it only says sandy so how about that?"

very creative

A lot of MC's they make jokes about them having bad naming sense

 

[legendaryswordsman]

I do wonder if he will be have to be taken out or when he sees how much the sister is into the MC he won't want anything to do with the situation

"i better think of a clever name. well it only says sandy so how about that?"

very creative

Y'know I actually thought about it, and if it was a girl, he could've named it Sandra.

The Sand Kingdom. Population, um, what do we have maybe 20-odd now with the new lot.

 

[MikaJinya]

The new kingdom is founded with the creation of new guild and trading company. Meanwhile, the trashy emperor of Maglev are infuriated his daughter escaped of the castle. The thing who's bothers me the most in that shitty family, they only care about the prestige, nothing else, not even have an consideration towards Horus because he had an unique "Sand" skill whom are deemed worthless and useless. And now the captain of 5th division wants to marry Morgia for political reasons. But someday, that shitty family will regret the day they throwing away Horus. Their own downfall will be just the matter of time.

 

[Waterfallx4]

Ah, so this is the founding of Tostarena!
