Shouldn’t the discovery of a genius who can break the “unbreakable” be more than worth the cost of the rock itself? Unless they’re saying that the crystal is one of a kind and impossible to replace, surely knowing that Weiss or Lily is a talented mage beyond compare is more useful than a target kids throw magic at.
Anyways I just don’t get why they have to pay back money when frankly they should be rewarded so that they’ll want to stay.
Trying to find a full color manhwa about a top player who gets stuck in the mobile game he played but it’s someone else’s account. It’s pretty stressful - author is not afraid of sacrificing notable characters to raise the stakes - as he has to play the game from inside the game, where he can easily die but only the real player can make the decisions.
I think the last chapter I read was about him and two other teams having to raid and infiltrate a massive golem. Thanks in advance.
I’m trying to find a complete, full color manhwa about an isekai’d blonde villainess whose smell is so sensitive that everyone’s B.O. makes her sick. One day she meets the clean-freak duke, who doesn’t smell because he takes baths obsessively, and he’s the only person she can actually breathe around so she jumps at the chance to marry him.
It was hilarious, and I’m so mad I can’t remember the name of it. ┗( T﹏T )┛help?
I guess this story doesn’t handle slavery badly per se; it has at least considered a history of slave resistance, though I think they could continue to go further with the worldbuilding. And at least the slave is an old man, and not a sexy beast girl.( ̄へ ̄)
But I just don’t trust Japanese isekai to handle slavery well anymore. Too many harems, too many mind control slave brands, too many men who see this systematic injustice and turn a blind eye because it serves their personal interests to have a laborer who can’t have full autonomy and convince themselves they’re still good guys because they don’t whip or starve their slaves. Like, there’s always a surface level, almost PSA style of “hey slavery is bad, kids!” before the rest of the narrative proves just how useful and convenient slavery is.
I know that this is heavily colored by being an American whose cultural history is specifically with chattel slavery, but even temporary slaves/serfs/indentured servants are illegal and unethical by modern standards. If you’re going to write about this, you ARE stepping into a minefield and you WILL have to give it due respect.
