@kamishiniyari that was the interesting part to me, not only was MC auctioned off (and failed bid haha) but the whole class was auctioned off like cattle regardless of what skills they had.
The way of bucking the trend here would be to have all the class secretly (or openly) plot their escape...
Think it's the first time I've seen a bug out bag in action in manga, haha, and was prepared enough to be given to the person needing it before they left. XD
This would have been a good place to end the manga if it was an advertisement manga for the light novel... hoping this doesn't come back to bite me in the ass haha
Problem with using the word "shit" in this context along with protagonist's face is the ambiguity of it haha.
Might need to look for alternative word to get the meaning across better
@jak that was the goal set last chapter, to make kane stronger so he won't feel unworthy of joining their party (he was adamant about it because he is low ranking and he sees himself as that way, regardless of what achievements he has accomplished). The demon king is just a stepping stone. :D
@Homelander to be fair she didn't really have a choice in the matter
She does hate her half-brother due to social norms in this world but not to the point of wanting him dead
Saw the raws a while ago and figured nobody would pick this up since it's a bit slow-paced and middle aged ossan protagonist, so pleasantly surprised someone picked it up, looking forward to translations. :D
