Tensei Shitara Ken deshita - Vol. 20 Ch. 98 - Dias

[Banana_Splits]

i quite like Dias so far, he's an interesting character

 

[Eloyas]

So, what are the odds the guildmaster is actually the dungeon master's human disguise?

 

[Sennalove]

I mean, she's not a defensive-type. =/ But yeah, getting some armor and whatnot couldn't hurt.

I assume its more mental attack stuff. If he can read their minds and it isn't a unique skills who's to say others can't.

So the secret isn't really much of one and if someone could read their thoughts like that, they have no real mental protection.

 

[Weesaw]

Or he could mean protected from skills that can cause negative status effects or impact the mind.

This dude fully had them staring at a plant and if he had been an enemy, he could’ve taken them out before they even realize what was going on

probably both tbh, info is also something worth protecting and as was discussed in-chapter, some people aren't good murder targets even if they're a pain - and you won't always know what others have found out before consequences get put into motion.

 

[Kaarme]

I like this guild master. He's a good heart and key to Fran getting stronger.

Who knows. We don't know much about him. All we know is that the dungeon master is using him to avoid his dungeons from getting destroyed and to get resources. Like Eloyas said, the guild master could actually be the dungeon master, or maybe he's a thrall. Or maybe the dungeon master is actually evil but needs a lot of time for his plans and the guild master is buying that time willingly, being equally evil. In that case, the guild master would be a con man who would maintain a careful balance of appearing both strong and harmless, occasionally benevolent, to keep things going smoothly for decades, without anyone suspecting a thing. Fran and Master could actually be "resources" he's planning to send straight to the dungeon master.

 

[galaxia9]

He's no doubt an annoying person but he does seem to be genuinely helpful. Although we should always be suspicious of helpful strangers in these things and we'll probably find out he didn't make a deal with the dungeon master but is the dungeon master with some nefarious plot sword dad and cat daughter will be caught up in.

Oh.... I was just being purposefully vague and obfuscating. I have read spoilers on TV Tropes. I know a bit more than the manga has shown.

 

[REMasher]

I like this guy!

 

[Me]

If anyone needs to be more guarded, it's the guild master. One day, he'll try his little trick on someone smarter and faster, and he'll look down to see a blade sticking out of his chest. No deal with the Dungeon Master can protect him from that, and the deal breaks when it happens. After that, goodbye town. You chose the wrong representative, no matter what his intentions with his tests are.

Guildmaster's not some wet-behind-the-ears rookie. He knows how to judge 'em, and also how to dodge 'em. Look at Fran's fists of fury flying right past him.

 

[dojoron]

Yeah like Fran's too unprotected vs sword.

That's the ultimate dream right there

 

[LordTartaros]

Old man has a point, they’re too easy to read.

 

[alexandergc]

I assure you, dear reader...the little bit of sideboob in Pg3 is absolutely essential to the plot.

 

[Kaito57]

How to become instantly trusted/liked by Fran :

Step 1 : Compliment her sword "Master".

(That's it... that's literally it lol)​

Both can be true. She doesn't have great mental defenses, and relies too much on master for evasion of physical attacks. We all know certain enemies have 100% accuracy moves, what happens then? =/

 

[LordZero]

Indeed, they are incredibly defenseless against mental attacks. Anyone that could use skills that would allow them to learn secrets of their opponents could take advantage of them.
If they learn how to conceal their skills, titles and telepathy from others, it would make them a lot stronger against all threats and certainly Shishou would be the most interested in doing things that would help keep Fran safe.

 

[Mandobard]

He’s right you know

 

[NatoBoram]

You're just... way too [unprotected], you know...

Fran is going to learn about using protection

 

[fight2live]

time to get some shield then

 

[TheKillrCraftr]

I, too, enjoy talking [Like This]

 

[PhycoKrusk]

Yeah like Fran's too unprotected vs sword.
