The Former Hero Wants To Live Peacefully - Ch. 19 - The Hero Takes Care Of The Conviction

[DaDingo]

Its so odd how this manga is going!

so a lot of stuff happened so fast in the previous chapters just for it to slow down to basicly a halt in this chapter

fight with resserected evil god?: one panel slaying.
Rebellion?: happens all offscreen in a 2ish chapters.
arresting and confronting the saintess and first prince who pretended to be the hero?: a few pages.


Bringing the dethrowned king to court and merely try to prove he did something wrong to begin with?: Entire chapter of "we got evidence!" "no you don't!", then Mc walks in and king pee's himself.

 

[DaDingo]

Pretty much. Plus the king is all "lololol you have nothing" and then the moment Noel walks in he shouts out "THE REAL HERO IS ALIVE!" like an idiot. If he kept his trap shut he could've tried to wiggle out of that and claim Noel's a traitor and the order is a forgery or something, but he just suddenly drops like 80 IQ points and pretty much incriminates himself unprompted.

Whoever's scripting this adaptation is absolute ass. It's like they're just picking scenes and bits at random and then letting the pacing around that be all over the place. I have no idea what the novel this is based on is actually like, but I have hard time believing that it's this shoddy.

Which sucks because I enjoyed the initial slower slice-of-life bits with Noel in his village. And then it all goes to shit as if the author wants to speed-run all the important drama bits to... whatever end they're working towards.

The script writer probably just wanted to get the story done and over with asap.

Every character in this manga is so dumb....
It's hard to read this cause no character feels "alive". They feel too dumb to be real.

Mb next chapter

What a shitty trial, imagine doing trial but prosecutor didnt bother to build their case.

 

[Araikari]

seriously all of the court mage higher up needs to be changed. even all the member need to be disciplined.
what the hell dude. Aina need to carry their ass in the civil war and they still have the audacity to look down on her. Bruh

honestly i think this trial should be done in one chapter. but Author make it longer for no reason. what's the point of making it longer when he make the civil war part is really short and mostly done behind the scene

 

[Haezer]

This whole chapter is a mess. A dumpster fire, if you'd like. There's so much stuff that are way beyond stupid that even if you're not using your brain when reading this you can still feel how stupid that was.

Thank you

author needs to play ace attorney

 

[deadrabbits]

The fuck you need evidence for in a coup, or a court case for that matter? Just execute the king and flat out state why he's being executed, you don't need actual evidence in that case. The only reason I can see a court case making sense is if somone on your side committed a war crime and is being tried after the conflict.

 

[JustSomeAlien]

This, ladies and gents, is why you BURN documents like these

 

[tekkenshu7]

This is kind of a childish play for a court trial but then again, this is set in a medieval-like setting and also in a WN/LN/Manga, so I should not expect too much logic or rationale here But they are pretty democratic about it, I mean having a coup or putsch like that and still have the defendants have a fair moment in court, that's pretty noble (but they still pretty much fumbled on presenting evidences)

well, they don't want to tarnish their kingdom name since the objective here is to stop another kingdom greed, not conquest. Still, this chapter is so stupid because of the useless banter and the trial end with hero cracking the evidence seal.

 

[xr900]

What is the meaning of the coup if you still held a court where defendants can still defend themselves from any charge and without any made up evidence from the coup party.

author writing skill arent that good.

 

[warm_panties]

That is a great reaction face that I will be using, should the need arise.

"That was no fart"

When you're getting chewed out by your teacher and your seat mate gives you this look

 

[Plain3r]

The royal court mages trio be like:

That one royal court mage girl: Haha is stupidly clueless*
The other girl: looks at her like "I can't believe this shit, what the hell"
The guy: Heh, no way is it possible to break-

next later

The proof:
That one royal court mage girl: NANI, FOR REAL?!
The other girl: This fucking bitch, really?
The guy: (PFFFFTIGKARLGARE)

 

[Plain3r]

Also, regarding the new character i.e the nun, Cynthia

Spoiler

From Ch.22 from the raws (rawkuma), her

 

[jhs_reika]

I just wonder about one thing. Why did the MC suddenly care enough and decided to help? He let all the injustice go earlier, and even blatantly refused to show himself to help the rebel even though it'd stop the war much easier and earlier. He even didn't care of the casualties when the coup army got defeated.

 

[Wolvenworks]

Lmao the encryption is just a tuesday for the MC

 

[Areos]

A bit of a messy chapter, this manga feels like its on a speed run from the author either to a weird end or whatever. Started great, now…
Thanks for the TL
