Thanks for the chapter
i'm curious if mc will be able to fight later, he got enlighted in the reaper fight but he doesn't have a leg now, i was kind of expecting some insane magic prosthetic leg but i don't know if it exist in this world and if there's one it should be crazily expensive

I mean, that seems to be the case? It seems like he's a generally decent guy (in addition to being insanely talented with the sword) so that draws people to him to begin with, and now each other character we've met has had some extra reason that this incident pushed their appreciation of him over the edge. For the initial trio it's guilt that they were there but couldn't prevent him losing his leg, for the church group it's the suspicion that something seriously fucky was going on for him to have even been allowed to go in the first place because the dungeon was so much tougher than advertised & they seem to be thinking this was practically an assassination attempt or something, hence the mention of keeping him under watch at the church HQ (or at least that's my charitable read of it to make that line slightly less insanely obsessive, lol)

Well firstly, these people have known Wolca a while and while I don't think they were straight out in love with him there were at least respect and budding feelings that would eventually develop into love.
Secondly, with the attack in the dungeon, Wolca was the only one able to fight the reaper and the only one injured, so the girls are hit with the survivors guilt of both not being able to help Wolca and Wolca being the only one injured. So they feel twice the responsibility as they did not help and did not suffer. This plus the fact that the reaper was infamous and considered nigh unbeatable only adds to this.
Thirdly, Wolca practices Iaijutsu which pretty much doesn't exist in this world and by all accounts should not work, but he made it work through sheer stubborn and hard work. This is one of the reasons the girls and roche are drawn to him, with slight differences. The fact that he lost his eye and leg, makes it so that he can't do Iaijustsu like he could before and the group feel like his future has been cutoff and its their fault as well.
So basically they all feel that wolca, someone they care about, promising and unique future was destroyed because they weren't able to do anything and they feel responsible for it double so, because they were saved hale and whole.
What tipped them over the edge though, is that Wolca seemed to not think anything about it and is just glad that everyone is safe. That all that stuff was trivial and he was just happy that everyone is safe. That basically put the girls into super guilt mode, that Wolca would not even condemn them and would only express happiness at their good fortune.
So they condemn themselves and vow to never leave Wolca's side again. Ever.
The manga should be getting into the Wolca and girls backstory soon, to expand on their relationships.
I'll add a spoiler from a later chapter for context
What if Wolka had not been crippled?
What if Yuritia had not needed to be protected in that moment—if she had instead fought alongside him that day?
What if her support could have prevented him from losing that irreplaceable leg?
There would have been nothing to stop the transcendence of his swordsmanship. His name would have spread far and wide as a master swordsman, at an unbelievable age; he would have gone down in history as a saint of the sword—a practitioner of the blade who brought about the dawn of a new age for the weapon.
He, a swordsman weighed down by an unspeakable past he could not share with anyone else, should have been rewarded in such a way.
But he was not—the bright future that should have awaited him had broken and become an unending path of thorns… because of Yuritia.
Her sin cannot be forgiven. It matters not what kind words Wolka has for her; she cannot ever be forgiven for what she has done.
That day, Wolka had protected Yuritia and the others, and he had been prepared to sacrifice his life to do so.
And after that, even after what had happened to him, he still wished for them to be happy.
What is it, then, that Yuritia wishes for?
(I want to be for you, Senpai, and only for you–all of me, all that I ever will be, forever and forevermore…)
Her deepest desire is to repay Wolka with everything she can and will ever be able to offer.
That, alone, will serve as her atonement. And that, alone, will serve as her happiness.

Lizel is attached to him like a little brother and sleeps on the same bed as him. Lizel actually is an old lonely non-human woman but lived in an empty frontier and doesnt get along with people because of her stubbornness. Its until she met Wolka as a child when he was practicing magic that she took him in as an apprentice. The party name Silver-Gray is based on their hair color and a way to get him to be stuck with her. Lizel has immense guilt for Wolka because she's the team leader that took the quest and felt she took away his future.
Yuritia is a genius swordsman that can copy techniques just by observing but this causes her brothers to shun her due to jealously. After seeing Wolka's technique, she became Wolka's apprentice. She is depressed about Wolka's injuries as she wants his technique to be known to the world. She's the one that accidently activated the trap to call the Reaper. she's originality the most innocent in the group but is now willing to kill for Wolka. She's the one that thinks Wolka has a dark backstory but Wolka doesnt care.
Atri is from a warrior tribe and as a warrior, she suppose to be in the front line. Her panicking from the reaper hurts her pride and injured Wolka. She takes her warrior pride way too literality and as she heard from her chief to take in a mate, she choose Wolka.
Anze is a saint but disguised as a nun. She met Wolka as a child when he was training. Wolka's training baffled her because he told her he choose to be trained until child abused by his grandfather. This open her worldview that the world isnt just sunshine and raindows. When she came back to the Wolka's town, the townfolks told her that Wolka has set off on his own and died but in truth he went off to train. She was overjoyed when she met Wolka again but Wolka doesnt know he has met Anze before because the disguise.
Hart. Not much about him that I know of. So far they are friends that dueled several times and so far its a draw. He's pissed that his friend got injured.

In terms of power, he was competing at the very top level of fighters without any of the support systems that they used to get where they are.
In terms of circumstance, he was thoroughly screwed by an administration that, through their own procedures, would have allowed dozens more competent adventurers die if MC(or the protagonist of the original story) did not intervene. The grim reaper is an opponent that you rally all of a country's elite to fight, not just 1.
In terms of reward, MC cares for neither money nor fame, he really just wanted to swing his sword. So he refused even an early retirement after losing just about the only "belonging" that mattered to him, his ability to fight.
And the worst is his character. He's just too OKAY with what happened. His isekai perspective allows him to blame the author and be done with it, but for everyone else he's had his life turned upside down multiple times throughout his life and he just takes it on the chin without blaming anyone. The closest person he would ever hold a grudge against is god, and coupled with how he's one of the few people who is not religious, him being spiritually at peace makes people question their faith.
This is compounded when later he shows that he's upset less by monsters and more by humans who turn to banditry and kidnapping despite being in a world where there are literal monsters and demons all over the world and humans need to work together. He's more magnanimous than the saints themselves, but they also fear how little MC values himself in the big picture.

She was in charge of his therapy? Like therapy therapy? Is it okay that she's so obbessed with him and her guard is his close friend?
Anyway, this is still frustrating because no, there's nothing cool about refusing help from others when you genuinely need it. The MC talks about wanting to swing a sword again, but he's literally prolonging the recovery process and making it less likely that he'll be able to do that by insisting on not relying on others as if he hasn't just gotten a massive injury and needs to. He was complaining about the prosthetic but refused to go to the capital and cathedral where he was promised that he'd get a better one. That just frustrates me. Dude don't complain and then refuse the literal answer to your prayers. It's not weak or shameful or anything remotely in that ballpark to accept the help you NEED from people that care about you. I feel sorry for those girls too because their guilt is only going to grow.

So... are the new fans going to actually give him a better prosthetic?.
I would think that someone so amazing as the MC (not being sarcastic, the guy is just too good for this world)... would benefit a lot by a bit of freedom. 1 eye and 1 leg less is barely an obstacle in the world of manga fantasy

I'm okay if we remove the girls and only keep the knight-bro lol.
I definitely feel like the MC coincidentally match with all the girls' insecurities.
Lizel is lonely, so she want companion
Yulithia is obsessed with swordmanship, so she definitely could not forgive herself for ruining a potential swordman life
Atri is a warrior, so she could not accept herself just shivering at the back while seeing her savior nearly sacrifice his own life for her
Not much is known from Anze yet
Hart is just grieving over his bro

This series feels so damn good. Like it seems like it could go for a really long stretch and be written super well, a great balance of a lot of things.
But damn, there’s a conspiracy now within the plot line, I’m glad his friends at the citadel are investigating it. I wonder who set them up…? If not just negligence, which would potentially be par for the course in a lot of large organizations.
I’m really excited for this one. Like, it gives the same solid foundation as Mobseka and a lot of other really massive hitters.
Thanks so much for the translation!

Sorry you would, this story has a few clichés but not that one
