This is cute. Not great art, not great plot, not great character development...but it's still fun.
It's always fun to see genuinely nice characters show up in manga. Usually, there's at least one edgelord, bastard, grump, or contrarian sonuvabitch somewhere to bring the mood down, but seeing the MC being a genuinely gentle person who expects nothing from anyone but who pushes himself to help others because he knows no other way to be is...well, not unique, but it rarely carries such a degree of sincerity. Usually, that sort of characterization results in a soulless, smiling automaton who struggles only superficially and who powerlevels themselves into godhood. Comagirl Whatsername is pretty bland, but not in an offensive way, just a generic manga good-girl. I'm really interested in the 'now-she's-young' landlady, and that was something of a surprise - she already has more backstory than Comagirl. Mu might be interesting later, but for now, she's just 'adorable urchin #1'.
It really is unusual for me to be enjoying something so obviously light on substance, but again - it's the force of sincerity that is conveyed that is carrying a lot of that load.
It ain't a great contribution to artistic culture, but it's a lot of fun anyway. Call it a 6.5/10, but I still like it.

This series is a good one. I already read up to chapter 45, and I need more!!!
The elf is the best girl after that point... And she's still a virgin.

The writing is all over the place. We start with the MC trying to level up his skill to save her CF for 25 years, after she was fix he gives her the very underwhelming reunion and treats her like just a new comer stranger and the wth in the long run just keeps going.

I hope this series gets continued soon. I like all the characters and want to see them keep developing. I also want to see what the rest of the world looks like. I'm even looking forward to seeing future romance develop.
I can't say it's particularly good in any area, but as a whole... the sum of those parts really does add up to more than the individual elements.
It's the best average fantasy story I can think of with a vibe that's better than average.
