man... I remember my punishments back then. Hallway cleaning with nothing but a rag and a coconut husk scrubber. :kek:

at least that Sister is not malicious with administering said punishments.

Nice, I love me some cute and happy manga like that. Hopefully it doesn't start trying some weird evil plot with an organisation or whatever, or at the very least not over many chapters.

I feel like punishing someone for performing a miracle (even if she technically left dorms after hours) is a bad standard to set for a young child. She may not try to perform miracles where she could anymore.
It's the carrot and stick approach, but she's only stick.

Wait, it isn't?... Did I read this somewhere else or did I read the raws so much that I forgot it wasn't being translated...
There hasn’t been an update on NU for like 1½ year after volume 2 was translated. The translator did say it was the latest release at that time, so it might just be that the novel releases are slow.

The kakuyomu raws stopped at volume 2 chapter 37 just like the translator. So either the author stopped completely or they published it as a novel.

Rule says don't enter the hallway. Don't touch patients "while in training".
Elderly person is choking on mochi and dying in the hallway.
Saintess goes out into the hallway to do the heimlich maneuver to save the dying person.
Elderly person survives.
Saintess is punished.

How much sense does that make?
Only difference in above is (a) immediacy, acute vs chronic condition (b) person vs plant.
In reality, you wouldn't punish a trainee saintess for demonstrating they are a great saintess.
The rules simply don't line up to their capabilities.

The Aesop's fable in this chapter is a warped isekai corruption, caused by "rules following Japan" author.
(Which has led to some terrible "culturally unique" incidents; like nuclear waste disposal, forced work drinking, etc.)
I sort of wish the author went "hard sci-fi" and whiteboarded out cultural differences.

Western cultures would at least try to suss out the "why" of an action that broke the rules.
And maybe factor in politically-motivated biases. Like "zero tolerance" laziness in public education.

Maybe the fact there's zero contextual awareness is what gets me.
(They literally just said only a great saintess could do this. Yet pretended it didn't exist.)

I get the feeling this is how they are using Saintesses as "slave-labor" by mentally cornering them.
(See: "A Tale of the Secret Saint" / "Tensei Shita Daiseijo wa, Seijo dearu Koto wo Hitakakusu")

I think that conversation at the hospital was supposed to be "I want to die" instead of "I don't want to die"? It might just be me but the conversation didn't make sense because his mom said "don't be silly"

You got it flipped, the mom is saying she doesnt want to die and Hirune is saying “dont be silly” (as in dont be silly you arent going to die sorta)
