Death penalty for copyright infringement is kind of... almost reasonable. The tomes are basically instruction books of how to build inexhaustible weapons, utility and power/reputation all into one. They need to be expensive so not any random power-hungry pleb can start a town fire. Though how this is even enforced or if it's worth enforcing is one big question I don't know if we'll ever get an answer for.

a bit of a small thing but I always appreciated how this one doesn't do the whole "1 copper = 1 yen" conversion BS. I mean, mc society doesn't use yen so that helps, but the real point is that there is no exchange rate for currencies that have no exchange. More so, how things are priced relative to eachother varies a lot based on many things such as popularity, it's current utility(weapon prices going up during war), or availability(how good the last harvest was). So trying to use the price of bread, for example, wouldn't be useful for understanding anything other than the current price of bread.

@bladestorm91 as opposed to some random power-hungry pleb with access to anything flammable, right? There's never a lack of ways to make the world burn. It's also why banning firearms to stop terrorists and crazy people is pointless, you can kill ten times more people with an assault truck and a few bags of fertilizer.

So this world is under D*sn*y's rule I see

How does mc know the discount he will get before she even calculated it?

 

[Hell_Satan]

@feha He has a built in calculator remember those nanomachines.

@Kaarme @duylinh @TrapCard113 @Ainzell I'm getting tired of people complaining why is it always Japanese food or rice on manga the author is Japanese o course they would put Japanese food their familiar with it they know the taste and the ingredients and they have tasted it same reason why most western food found in isekai manga is either fried chicken pizza and spaghetti, if the author will put in other food from other culture that they have not tasted or they don't even know the ingredients then they have to look it up and they don't even know if they would like the taste and most of the readers of this manga are Japanese who are actually familiar with the food and will be able relate to it.

 

[feha]

@Hell_Satan No matter how good your calculator is, if you don't know what to calculate you should be unable to calculate it. He gets a price (500+750 per day), asks for a discount as he wants to stay 14 days ("ok!"), then somehow he calculates the discount himself (1400/14=1000; 1250-1000=250; A discount of 250) before she figured it out herself. There is no way he could have calculated that before being told that the discount would be 250 per day.

 

[Hell_Satan]

@feha Didn't the girl already me mentioned if he becomes a member he get a 20% discount. oops my mistake I was referring to the magic girl I have not read it properly yet just got out of work. But I guess its weird here since in the novel it was properly calculated.

 

[feha]

Do you mean the magic-guild girl? She is a different person, its a different business entirely, and the discount is caused by another thing (membership as opposed to staying for an extended time with payment upfront).

The inn girls convo also took place before they even entered the magic guild, so no, the magic guild girl did not already mention the discount on magic guild services before he got the discount from the inn girl on inn services.

edit: though it is a bit funny that the discount is actually the same. I had not considered how it is a 20% of discount for both.
edit2: and yeah, I also remember that in the novel things went properly. As in, she said she could bring the price down to 2 1-person rooms (or something along that line, the gist would be that she could bring the price to 1k per day) before starting to calculate the full price.

 

[Hell_Satan]

@feha Yeah I guess the novel skips some parts, I don't even remember how his detection magic was created in this manga but in the novel it was explain that he had the nanom make him some mapping thing.

 

[feha]

@Hell_Satan In the manga he basically just asked the nanom to do some shiz iirc.
But yeah, in the novel it was expounded on way more, including iirc that ppl could notice the scan if they were too close when he did a long-range pulse.

 

[Hell_Satan]

@feha well I just read the manga to at least have an image from what happen in the novel I kinda more of a novel reader anyway. Im just waiting for the

Twin clones.

 

[feha]

@Hell_Satan Fun fact is that when they showed up in the manga in an earlier chapter, I did not even remember that happening in the novel. Though I havent read the latest chapter-part, as I prefer waiting til a chapter is complete before reading it, so might be something happening there (doubt it tho) and the manga simply decided to tease it early.

 

[Hell_Satan]

@feha Another fun fact their actually named

base on the real Iris Conrad children

that was mentioned in previous chapter. Man the WN is so slow on the update, it takes two months to update the WN.

 

[bladestorm91]

@jorgeDS while all you say is true, the key difference in this world is that their 'weapons' are inexhaustible, you can refuel them anywhere just by waiting. Any weapon on Earth eventually runs out of ammo, fuel or just breaks down and the terrorist or maniac is SOL.

 

[Kaarme]

@Hell_Satan By your logic we shouldn't ever be seeing the typical Western looking fantasy setting either, only Japanese shogunate looking ones (or Sengoku if they want it super wild) because that's what the Japanese authors intimately know, and the Japanese readers know better old Japanese architecture, clothing styles, weaponry, etc than European ones.

 

[Salfaro]

He sold the pudding recipe for less than the cost of a single person renting a room for two weeks? Damn, the going rate of Earth Cuisine in this is a lot lower than most isekai.

 

[captain_crunch]

The forearm and hand is about 2.1% and the lower leg and foot is 6.7% of total body mass in women. Let's estimate she needs to eat 8.8%x3 =26.4% more food if the author meant 4x as fast. If he meant 4x faster then it's 35.2%

 

[jorgeDS]

@bladestorm91 refueling by waiting but who is gonna let them to refuel? Terrorists and crazies don't stop killing because they run out of bullets or truck fuel, and by the same logic they can just escape and get more, they stop because they get caught.

Now for the realistic reason to keep magic (and firearms) unacessible: makes it harder for the population to ever go against the government.
