Those was actually pretty deep thoughts at the end. Even if we assumed the world was more normal otherwise, an assassins' guild obviously wouldn't have average citizens as its members. There needs to be something wrong about you or your background if you make a living as a hired murderer. So, it would be a delicate balance between being professional (not attracting extra trouble and securing your back among other murderers) and then being honest about your desires/goals and raison d'être. If you ignore the former for the sake of the latter, you will end up as a corpse, seeing how it's an extremely dangerous job and you will be surrounded by equally dangerous people all the time.

....Can someone remind me why she is going against the entire guild? I only recall some members trying to haze her / being needlessly hostile towards her. But that's a member-by-member basis, not the entire organization.
And by lord almighty, I also don't recall the MC being blackmailed by anything.

I need an arc summary.. :v

Edit: summary given:
TLDR: guild master extorted MC's master/benefactor/whatever to take his jobs (or he'll use the guild to kill her, basically), who's a demon she trusts cuz of game memories, so the MC took on those jobs in her stead, whilst marking the entire guild for destruction.

Now it's time for our little blood stained princess to massacre an entire guild.

Thanks for the scanlation!

Iirc, her master (the dark elf) was being blackmailed into returning as an assassin by the guild, as well as by eliminating the guild she’s removing a potential danger from reaching the princess she befriended

I don't quite remember myself all that well, but wasn't it about her master? Her master doesn't want to kill anymore and wants to retire, but the other disciple was making her do jobs. I remember something like that

Head of guild threatened to harm MC's teacher. That pretty much all it took for her to go mass murder on the group.

I love this series so much: it feels so "real" in a way that really sets it apart from other isekai stories.

But good lord it's difficult to read sometimes. She's a child turned murder hobo, and is about to upgrade to serial killer.

It does make me giggle every time she throws out that absolute villain line, become nourishment for my growth, etc. Reminds me of Shishio Makto from Kenshin.

Too bad Goth-lolita will never learn how much she screwed everyone over by failing to learn the lesson of "don't dish it out if you can't take if"
Not really. The moment Dino threatened Aria's master, Aria saw the whole guild as her enemy and planned to eliminate them.

The silly thing about Keela is that she could never take it; in her first meeting with Aria, her sneak attack got countered even though she was stronger than Aria then - basically, despite her better stats she had always been careless. She also sent Gai and Rhada after Aria, both had greater prowess than her and both disappeared - so she's a moron.

And then there's Dino, who failed to rein Keela in; despite the rules of the guild clearly stating that aggression against another member isn't tolerated and Keela showing that aggression right in front of him, he let it go without any punishment and instead told Aria to stop responding to Keela's aggression (so, "just take it and do nothing"). Considering that Gai and Rhada both went to kill Aria, that rule is clearly not one they ever cared to enforce.

So the one who really screwed everyone over is Dino; though to be fair to him, it's not like anyone would expect Aria to be that dangerous. He's been trying to monitor her, and even in this chapter he's showing he is considering how strong she's getting, but honestly, he should have gotten the memo from that very first person he sent to monitor Aria and her master's movements never coming back to report. Unfortunately, he really wanted to have something on Serjura, Aria's master, so he's been keeping Aria while he still thinks he could control her. He miscalculated.

Not sure how the goth chick has survived up until now.


You'd think after the first person she sent going missing (followed by the cat girl) would be a massive clue to not mess with the MC. Or at least take the MC seriously.

Nope, just continue to try to bully the MC. All while acting like the MC wont retaliate.

Judging by the behavior of the sage, dwarf berserker, and chained guy, each one of them would have killed the goth chick if she tried her bratty behavior towards them.
