Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku - Vol. 11 Ch. 70 - The Hometown of Dwarves

@tigerstar186 Satou realized from a single swing that the ingot he had been given was bad, and the master smith saw that he noticed, and then checked it himself to confirm.

That says more for Satou's skill as a blacksmith than any sword he could ever make. Which checks out, since Satou literally maxed out his blacksmithing skill. The most skilled blacksmith to ever exist would at best merely be his equal. He cannot be surpassed, it is mathematically impossible by the rules the world operates under. Quite frankly, even if the ingot hadn't been bad, the master smith recognizing his skill after a single swing of the hammer would be valid and make sense, for the same reason that any master swordsman should only need to see someone with maxed out swordsmanship swing a blade once before saying "I've seen enough, he's a true expert."
 
It's so refreshing that we have dwarves now instead of Lady Noble of the Impossible Tits.

Well, there are still a few ways to improve as there are some things the skill level can´t fix.
Its explained in the novel that Skills instinctually guides you towards the correct action, but if you have no idea what that action is you can still have different results.
So "experience" in the craft is also a factor and not just the skill level.
That said being maxed level makes it so that almost anything he would do is going to result in a product that almost no one can match even when he has no idea what he is doing...
 
What stubborn? Dude didn't even need to make the sword, just hit an ingot once. That's like the opposite of stubborn. It's like the big boss dwarf merely needed an excuse to satisfy a tradition, and that's it.

This is a greatly shortened chapter. In the webnovel the guy who gave him the hammer gave him a shitty hammer. He was actually working on the sword for a bit with perfect movements, but the sword wasn't coming out well. Then the dwarf leader took the hammer and tried himself knowing the hammer was tampered with.

Why give him a shitty hammer? I don't remember off the top of my head as this is still VERY VERY early in the story. Had something to do with that guy not liking him because he was too close to the dwarf lady even though he had no interest in the dwarf lady.
 
@Goldenzeal @Lord-Raine
Right, there were a couple of things written into the novel obviously just to point out that skills aren’t the be all and end all - his failures at sewing (due to lacking basic knowledge) and singing (due to being tone deaf) that a maxed out skill does nothing to correct for.
 
@TitanAnteus that is way more detail than this, but I wonder what its like in the LN. I don't think there would be a reason to shorten it that much
 
The ingot was also a defective product marked for recycling. The guy was envious of MC so he tried to sabotage him in whatever way possible. Something about it being an honor for this and that and it not being fair for MC, a human, to do it.

When MC paused and was trying to figure out the anomaly he was experiencing (as he was unsure of the feeling he was getting). The boss came in to inspect it. He was furious about it. I believe he also punished the culprit too but they were still allowed to come with MC and boss dwarf

This chapter was completely cut far too short and is rather confusing in some sections as a result of the missing context
 
@GrimGriefer
Thanks for clearing that up!
I've seen rather a LOT of blacksmithing (thought I've done almost none), and that's not how it works! LOL...
 
Isekai guy: Travels around with a harem full of girls but is too much of a pussy to do anything, even gets offered a busty princess hand as a reward but declines.

Also Isekai guy: When a talk about spirits breaks out and he hears that they are a fluffy ball of light his minds, out of nowhere, goes to "I'll keep my hopes up for a big tiddy onee sama"

I like manga and I know well that I should expect cringe from isekai but my God sometimes a panel just really makes me lose braincells.
Like they literarly stated it's a ball of light, how after hearing that you suddenly get the idea that maybe it's not. And even if it wasn't, what is he gonna do, certainly not make any move on the spirirt. It just makes no sense to put that part in there, so fucking random.

Let's see...4 children, a human girl with androphobia, a lizard girl who is his slave and a less than 1 year old homunculous girl. Does that sound like a Harem to you? Sounds more like a babysitting job to me, or maybe a special ed bus driver. Why don't you use your head and think about it a little, why "Isekai guy" should or shouldn't fornicate with his female traveling companions. Get an idea of what adult accountability looks like.

@Beregorn
Agreed. Also he rejected the balloon monster, so what is with that mental image now?
"Balloon monster" was really annoying. The MC saw that despite her "charms" and she wasn't invited into the group. Do you typically invite annoying characters into the group just because they has big tiddies? Are you perhaps misinterpreting what the MC's mental image was? A common JRPG representation of certain spirits rather than MC laying out his preferences?
