Tensei Shite High Elf ni Narimashitaga, Slow Life wa 120-nen de Akimashita - Ch. 34

Felt really rushed, that one. And I guess this is one way to avoid the whole dilemma of having to somehow give the other side of the story. The author just avoided the Oni altogether, probably because he had no idea how to make the reader sympathetic to them given their "proclivities", as I suspected.

quite likely frankly i don't see any way you can make invaders, who plunder and rape woman, sympathetic. so rather than try mental gymnastics that frankly few would believe they decided to just cut their losses and move on instead.

Wait, we're not even going to see any of the Oni? I liked learning about the "god" or whatever the giant was, but I was hoping we could get a direct look at the Oni to see both sides of the story.

Kidnaping lolis and not even using them right, truly they are pure evil.

 

[Kathartes]

The main goal of his trip is about searching for the origin of Yosogi School, and he already learned enough: where the school used to be, what kind of achievements they had, why did they leave the country to travel westward. He also acquired the technique to forge katana so that the school's students can revive some old skills if they wish for it. The secondary task is to visit the Fusou tree and find more clues about the Giants, which might lead him to the "white lake" that Irena wishes to see. In retrospect, he's doing all of those for women.

On another note, the oni is just a sideline gossip he heard along the way, there's no personal reason for him to involve too deeply.

When does he go back to his original country (not the elf one). Its very nice but its been a while since weve seen the characters all the way back there.

Ig hes going to make a trip around the world in ancient elf slowmo style?

 

[Grikath]

I feel people are misunderstanding Aesir here.....
Yes, the situation is not ideal, and faeries and......

But.... his ..sentiments are with humans, and honestly... the only way to resolve the current situation would be to engage in an act of pure genocide. By sinking/quick-dunking the entire island. And yes, he can......
The fruit will aid the fairies to an extent, but they'll either die out or find a way to co-exist with his favourite race, the humans. Something which isn't happening elsewhere.

This is a very subtle hint that he can afford to check up on this after a century or two to see how things are ...developing...
And nuke the place if it didn't work out...

I swear our long-lived elf bro just caught a bad case of ADD...

No onis, then a drive-by with the sprites. He's used to hanging out somewhere for decades and then this.
