Well.. She found those super thick drowers that are commonly used to be too restrictive and just went without... ALL THIS TIME.
Hopefully she will find the panties more accommodating to her rigorous lifestyle. Now to teach her a sense of shame!
I don't really want to think about it, but i have to think about it. Girl that age mostly already reached menstrual cycle. I might be wrong because idk her actual age. So, by going commando, she just splattered her menstrual blood everywhere or directly on her pant?! That's so not hygienic!
I guess this won't count as spoilers, but just in case. Ever since this meeting, Gelf has somehow convinced her that undergarments are essential for combat (the only way to get her to wear it). There is a minor gag Gelf had to double check if she is still wearing them. What? Her sense of shame? It's a work in progress.

Though this does make me think, how do female adventures deal with the monthly business in a fantasy setting... Or maybe we aren't supposed to think about it...

Does Gelf doing that gonna be shown in the manga? Lol that gonna be hilarious.

It makes me curious too. My Ma used to tell me that before there is the modern pad, woman used piece of cloth as the pad. Does female adventurer do the same? What about the one wearing stupidly bikini armor? Does the blood leak from the side? Do they change during dungeon delving? Do they throw it away or reuse it? What about the male and their fountain business? So many questions, so little manga that touch the subject.

I have bad news for you, they will reappear in the later arcs (yes plural). They will flesh out their story later, but whether you will like it is a different story.
of course they will psp tell me they die or something

Update: someone from "Nika Toons" said they're going to pick this up and (since it's not mine to begin with) I'll back off like a good bear.

If I recall correctly, she was around 8 years old at the start of the story and it's about a year later, according to her in this chapter, so she's 9 years old. The accelerated aging process from her magic training has probably put her in the 11-13 age range, physically, but these are just estimates.

As for the people discussing menstruation...you know you can just look these things up online and see what people used to use, right?

I know what women used to use back then. I discuss this menstruation topic because it's in fantasy isekai setting where you don't need to take a bath and just 'whooooosh' clean yourself with [clean] magic. Do they clean their menstrual that way or manually if they don't learn daily magic yet? Do they have similar pattern as female of this world? Something like that.

Ah, I missed your later reply on it. Wasn't just you though.

If cleaning magic can clean up bodily fluids, I don't see why blood would be any different. I would wager it's probably not brought up in the light novel this is based on, as the MC is still a bit too young.

I’ve always liked the rugged tomboy look, but the art is good enough that I’m liking her pretty and vengeful look too. Thanks for the chapter, I really like this story. I’d probably buy the offficial translation if it weren’t on one of those online reader platforms with DRM.
I’m not sure if it’s the same for all the series they publish, but everything I’ve ever bought from J-Novel club lets you download the book as a file with no DRM. For the in-progress translations that they release week-to-week you’ll have to wait for a few weeks after they’re done translating for the files to become available and I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work if you just read with their subscription service, you actually have to buy the volumes.

I wish manga about fantasy sword magic and dungeon setting would dig more about the sanitary life of adventures. Not only this manga, but other manga as well. I remember in Dungeon Meshi, the group taking dump by making hole in dungeon floor in specific place of the dungeon. How the clean themselves as far as i remember never being mentioned, but it stated that the female mage in their group
used silence magic to mask her 'business'

Aria not wearing panties is one of the most obvious "this is only part of the story because it's the author's fetish" things I've ever seen, and I've read Made in Abyss

We never see characters in fantasy isekai poo either. Do you think they go around shitting their pants? It's honestly kinda pointless to think about. They probably deal with menstruation, pooing and peeing, washing up just like everyone else. Just no point in wasting panels for that stuff in a manga thats not about daily life anyway.
