What do you mean Murder Hobo?

That term has been coined to represent RPG protagonists. They roam around the world homeless killing thousands and stealing from all sorts of places.

Aria isn't a proper Murder Hobo, but she does carry some of the traits. She works in places for months at a time afterall.

Murderhobo isnt Synonymous with Mercenary, it specifically refers to someone with no attachment to home or other people whose primary occupation are forms of mercenary and wetwork.

She is a revenge oriented psychopath, but that doesnt stop her from having emotions, a home, or people she cares about. As ive said, Alicia loves Elena (and i mean actual love, not lust or infatuation based attraction.), she considers Surjura her mom and Surjura's Refuge her home. she lacks the interpersonal detachment critical in the definition of Murderhobo. Alicia is a Femme Fatale who decided Kratos is the ideal role model

if anyone is a murderhobo in this story, its Colette.

Thanks for the chapter!
So dark type magic can create expanded spaces too huh? Or did we already know that? I need to reread this arc.

I know i will be bashed for saying this but.
So many pages wasted on trying to explain an unorigal fcking magic system that will never mean anything in the story. Authors you will never be Togashi. Just dropp the isekai magic system exposition. Magic does magic. I dont give a shit :bleh:

Yeah. Because what you're saying is stupid.

The fights in the series are based around it, so it's important we know what it might do.

Explaining that a MC has learned a new ability is good, actually. And the fact that it's something she developed herself after interacting with the magic system is the opposite of "isekai magic system" where it would just be handed to her randomly after a level-up. (although there is a little bit of that in this world, I guess, but you picked a really bad spot to complain about it, since this chapter isn't that at all.)

Also the exposition was 3 pages out of 36 wtf do you mean "so many pages"

This is how you show you dont read or perform literary analysis.

Alicia ISNT Educated, and the entire series is written from that point of view. Shes running on The Bitch's college education and Surjura's notes. the Magical System, while the first examination is completely omitted from the manga, is appropriately introduced and constructed in the novels for the limitations Alicia has, and shes still a fucking technical genius as far as magic is concerned.

Thats 3 pages of nothing but "my magic X does magic X". Its wasted. There is nothing original with this magic system, i am sorry if this is the first fantasy story you have read but its the truth.

And? Just because the protagonist is uneducated doesnt mean i as a reader have to sit through "unoriginal bogstandard magic system class 101". Keep that stuff for the novel or extra appendages, manga is a visual medium. Show, dont tell me.

it was literally cut, because it literally happens with Alicia living in a tree for 3 days hunting mice. And the explanation of the groundwork for later spells was only touched on otherwise.

its not bog standard. Theres literally no asspulling in the books beyond later spells just being introduced once their base theory had been introduced

Its ok if its one of your fantasy story, and its ok if you enjoy it. It doesnt make it original though.
