Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi - Vol. 4 Ch. 21 - Lambert-San's Store

[Nojay]

@Izaya_Onisai :

Mukouda-san doesn't want to fight or level up, he doesn't want a kingdom, he doesn't want adventures and thrills. He's a 27-year-old salaryman, not a testosterone-poisoned teenager. He wants a quiet life, a bath, the chance to do some sightseeing, wander around and see this new world he's been dumped in and that's all. He's only an Adventurer because the Guild can disassemble monsters for him to provide Fer with meat and as a source of income. If he had a choice he wouldn't bother.

The incredibly dangerous world he's now in is not a game, he doesn't have multiple lives and save points. If he gets killed it's game over for him, no return, dead dead dead. Sure he's got a Fenrir at his side but relying on Fer to keep him safe in dangerous situations 100% of the time is, well, a risk and he doesn't want to take risks. Even Fer's Barrier can be broken by strong enough monsters, even Fer can be defeated in a fight.

Safety first" is a phrase that crops up again and again in the LN translation, for good reason. Reading forward in the LN we get to see what happens to the teenage Heroes that arrived in this world with him, the ones who learned magic and swordsmanship and went out and levelled up and faced danger, treating this world like it was a game.

Spoiler

it's not pretty.

@Izaya_Onisai

Neither Mukouda protected by Feru or Feru himself are immortal, but the ones capable of either defeating Feru, or keeping him busy long enough for something else to get through the barrier and kill Mukouda are very few, so the odds of that are so miniscule they're not really worth considering at this time.

And frankly, he doesn't even want to be there, but he is, so he might as well try and do the best of the situation, which was definately made easier by Feru joining, and he chose to effectively go on a gourmet trip.

And well, the actual heroes who do believe and behave like it's a game and hormone-rich teenagers ? Yeah....Don't suppose calling them seriously naive & tricked would be spoiling anything at this time.

 

[Nekocchi]

It's an update yey
Fun.. fun..can't wait for more fight food and adventure
Thank you for the hard work

 

[Crombs]

@Robbini You say he 'might as well make the most of the situation', and he is. He's doing precisely what he wants to do - which is earning a living, cooking some food and not dying

He's got no goal of trying to defeat a demon king or becoming stronger in general - power leveling is very low on his priority list

 

[Serkket]

Kinda of a snorefest but it's fine I guess...

 

[Yatsuki]

@Izaya_Onisai That's part of this series' charm. You know what, yeah he's a bit timid, but that's how most people are. What do you expect from your normal every-day single office worker, who comes from Japan. Which, if you don't know, is quite safe and convenient. He wants to live away from conflict, just enjoying food with his familiars and that's what he's doing, and a mighty good job of it if I might say.

And you know what, there are thousands of other isekai series where the MC train "like a normal person" because the isekai world has game elements and MC has "cheat/fun/convenient" ability... guess where those series are? Apparently not as famous and popular as this one :v

 

[Akuzuma]

Sui is God's gift. And I enjoy this manga still. If you want some fights, I suggest you look for another manga to read

 

[vannn]

@nojay so what happens to the other summons?

 

[collagen]

Sui is so adorable as always! It's no wonder Mukouda-san adores Sui so muchhhh~ the most precious, soul healing bby slime. 😊

 

[Shakur]

SUI IS SO PRECIOUS OMG IF THE AUTHOR DECIDES TO MAKE A SERIES JUST ABOUT SUI I WOULD READ IT ALWAYS !
I like how this series go, he don't need or want to be a super strong dude, he is a 27 yo dude, he just want to live well and good, make friends along the way, maybe someday fall in love and marry with someone and mostly do whatever he wants to do It, that's what I like the most about this series, even with adult mc's most of them puts them like if they were teens and that is not always nice.

@vannn

Spoiler

as far as translated LN chapters go the last we saw of them the knights that were assigned to them were given the mission to put magic tools on the heroes that makes them slaves. Each knight feigned romantic interest with their hero and tricked them into thinking magic tool was a present.

 

[welcome2atlantis]

This metal lizard sounds very ROCK-ish.

 

[Doopington]

Sui is cute, best isekai mascot creature.

 

[Robbini]

@Crombs

That's exactly my point.

 

[Nojay]

@Shakur

Actually there's a spin-off manga series, subtitled "Sui's Big Adventure" with episodes interleaved with the regular story and manga which focusses on Sui. No-one seems to be scanlating it though.

[brokenglish]

I ALSO WANT A SUIIIIIIIIIIII

 

[arcsalvo]

This is a fun series. Wouldn't mind seeing an anime or even a game.

 

[TrueGoddessReincarnation]

Sui is gonna get a humanoid form like Suu from Monster Musume isn't she?

 

[Shakur]

Thank ya @Nojay for giving me the ultimate reason to learn how to read japanese <3
@TrueGoddessReincarnation not this kind of isekai, Sui is perfect as he is.

 

[Psychronia]

Sui is a cutie, as usual. Lambert was strangely fun to watch as well though.
