What a “cheesy” character

I still find it strange that the church felt so threatened by blacksmiths that they simply made the populace so prejudiced against blacksmiths. I also though blacksmiths were rare, compared to heroes. It makes much more sense to get them on your side rather than further alienating them and making them your enemy.

Their religion is based on the sanctity of people's skills and the equipment that comes with them, Blacksmiths being able to freely create on par with or even better than the divine arms people were granted end up threatening that. It isn't an uncommon story in humanity's history either, religious groups attack anything that threatens their beliefs even today.

Going back to earlier chapters though, it seems that the pope at the top of the church never advocated for the discrimination and that all the discrimination was a misunderstanding by the clergy that led to the demonization of Blacksmiths. According to the pope when they first met, there was a standing order that the Blacksmith must be brought in, which was misunderstood as a dead-or-alive bounty for a criminal.

The reason why the church ostracized blacksmiths is because a blacksmith in the past killed one of the heroes, this in turn caused a major calamity and as such blacksmiths haven't been trusted since, the pope seeing that blacksmiths aren't bound by the rules sof fate that a class normally entails, probably saw both the good and bad potential of blacksmiths and wanted to get relius on his side as relius can essentially change the fate of the world for good or bad.

Oh and no this isn't a spoiler, the pope told this to relius directly in a previous chapter.

Blacksmiths being the weakest occupation has been abolished quite some time ago. So I was wondering, what they do to advance the story. Introducing another babe in hotpants. That's a classic.

Yeah I agree with the first part, religion can be pretty messed up. I had just thought blacksmiths were rarer than heroes and the only other notable and powerful blacksmith was Argo at least so far mentioned. So it seemed weird how people could assume blacksmiths were these feared entities, but then some of the populace thought that blacksmiths had a weak and useless skill as shown this chapter.

Well we still don't know the cause of the blue stone monsters (though consider the first blue stone boss and the recent implied one, i'm expecting the previous evil blacksmith to be the creator of the blue stones themselves and thus the one behind all of this, as well as blue stone monsters not being necessarily monstrous in origin), so there's that at least..

I mean I thought it was obvious that blue stone monsters are people. (insert soylent green reference here). I mean when you think about it, all of the big bad truly threatening blue stone monsters were previous heroes who seemingly fell into some sort of despair. So my theory is that blacksmiths are meant to prevent the downfall of other divine artifacts.

Weird jokes like those construction workers kills the mood.

I stopped reading after Vol 7, is there actually any romance in this story? or is it just waifu collector?

 

[TetraSky]

How convenient! Someone who just so happen to know Argo showed up.

There's next to no romance thus far. But they did admit their feelings to him a handful of chapters ago.
