@Koshin I agree it looks stupid (though no worse than every other anime female "armor" that has a gaping boob window or boob plate), but from the way the fire magic didn't affect her at all, it probably projects an anti-magic barrier or something similar. If so, its looks don't really matter at all; you could make lingerie out of it and it'd still be effective.

I don't know if this covers it, but on pg 18 it stated "the material enhances the wearers magical defenses". So maybe it is like a stat boost, or item effect through magic or game-like system. Maybe the effect directly enhances the users natural magical defenses rather than physicaly.

Like if you wore a bracelet of +10 armor. The bracelet itself doesn't apply the armor via surface area but instead makes your natural skin tougher/harder.

I have seen the raised in an orphanage because of passed away parents thing so many times now that it almost disgusts me. It's a lot more bearable if the passed away parents part isn't the reason.

If so then that makes the whole idea of making it a whole bodysuit even dumber, especially the male version. Just cut a hole in the male version too. Or better yet, make a smaller/skimpier unisex design for practical use. When I thought I didn't dislike this chapter enough for the illogical annoying elf swordsman/swordswoman, sigh

That bitch is so...Just because she has father issues, she decides to take it out on random guy she meets. Her reasoning: I test his strength to see if he is trustworthy, but in reality I just want to beat him up, because I'm already convinced, that I'm stronger than him anyway.

In MC's shoes, the moment she would have pointed that sword at me, I'd give her a stern warning, tell her, that I hate battle junkies and that I give no f*cks about her reasons. Then I give her a chance to stand down. (I know, I'm naive and too kind. Most people would have engaged her in mortal combat the moment she tried to point that sword tip at their throat.) And if she doesn't I'd brutalize her, to set her head straight about attacking your allies, no matter what that sister of hers might think about me. And if she is stronger than me, I'd use unhanded tricks or run. And if she still defeats me, I'd refuse to work with her again(, if I'm still alive). I'd refuse to work with her ever again, no matter which case. No matter if I look like a sour loser or a brutal thug. No way in hell, I'd make up with her. Damn dangerous freak.

It's sad that the story went this way. This behaviour of the MC only works, because it is "That kind of story". You know: All girls are stupid bimbos and he as a male has to be nice to them, so that they have the chance to ultimately fall for him. It breaks any immersion, if any was left. Bad story telling. Immersive stories, yield more likeable/relatable characters, which in turn are more alluring/sexy, if that is, what the author was going for.

That mithril suite for girls is a bit sparse on the material. Why do males enjoy better protection. If that suite would be a thing, most females would buy the male version. Again something, that breaks immersion for bland fanservice.

BTW: Isn't it too Obvious, that her father has been framed? I know she was a child and it is a trauma, but now she is an adult. You'd think she'd call her memories and the whole story into question, before threatening unknown people.

@qelix Also for some damn reason they show these random guys how to make this expensive mythril thread. For no reason what so ever. Keep it a trade secret for themselves? Nah. There is no reason to show your production area to a bunch of outsiders. I'm guessing the author thought that his idea of how to make mythril thread was super cool and just wanted to show it off.

@AmericanJedi: Actually I thought, that the author at least put a little bit effort into thinking about a creative way to make mythril into some form of cloth. (Though I thought about how much of that precious metal gets lost this way.) But yes, you are right. That went under my radar, because I started to skip through the rest of the chapter, as I was furious about the first half of the plot. Those farmers are stupid to give away their technique, which should be a trade secret.

I get that she's meant to be the tsundere harem member and has some trust issues but her treatment of the MC seems completely unmotivated.

@Yuruginaii
But it grants protection through magical means.
Besides this universe already goes by game logic in multiple ways, if a chest piece offers 5 DR and 20% fire resistance my expectation is that it'll help mitigate all relevant damage types no matter where I'm struck.

Ok so apparently you just need to equip it to have the magic resist bonus, the parts uncovered are also affected by this. So why not make only the underwear to hide it completely?

This started off much funnier, now it’s just generic. The elf girl’s grudge doesn’t make any sense either, MC doesn’t have anything to do with her father unless her distrust extends to all men, but the author doesn’t even establish that, somehow MC “reminds her of her father”. “My father ran out on me so I hate you, specifically, man I just met!”

Get rid of the backstory and just make her a girl that likes to fight.

Typical tsundere bitch: causes trouble with zero provocation, gets her ass kicked, refuses to admit her failure.

"Isn't it better to try it once and regret it than not try it at all?" Not at the cost of 300k! Why go through this entire quest just to end up with buyer's remorse?!
