Mahoutsukai no Konyakusha - Vol. 1 Ch. 2.4

this is cute and all but can the MC just stop being useless already, so far she's been more of a side character while the love interest has more of an MC feel.
 
@Uncle_hitler As far as I know that's kinda the point, with the love interest getting all the cheats and abilities while she acts like his most precious person; we're seeing an OP-MC story from the point of view of the heroine.
 
a 7 year timeskip huh?? I hope we do get the reason for that in the future chapters.
 
Eh? But I ask people to wait all the time. Does this mean I am engaged to many people?
Rargh, what a load of bull.
 
never visited once in 7 years?? is that school on the other side of the earth or whats going on here
 
That, @Kisato, probably means that Snake is a hunk. Just look at how he usually dies: because too many people can't wait and start looking (and shooting) at him.
 
Asking someone to wait for you - when you intended to leave for a long time but eventually return, like war or travel - was a common old-timey shorthand for "Will you marry me." Like it says on the tin, it's asking someone whether they'll wait and not get married to someone else while you're gone.
 
Thanks for the chapter!
LN has more detail. Basically since she was scarred by a spirit the wound will never fully heal, other spirits won't go near her due to the wound so she can't be healed or harmed by spirit magic, and because injured by a spirit and rejected by spirits in a culture heavily involved in using and respecting spirits consider her a contemptible person based on their own prejudices without bothering to learn about circumstances or how and why it happened. Kind of like becoming tone deaf in a city of musicians with every aspect of life revolving around music.
Seems odd the adults consider two kids engaged with a childhood promise of her waiting for him. Reminds me of some of those stories in fantasy novels where traveler gets caught in a weird local tradition of doing x with a young woman of marriageable age means they're married with x being something like walking around the fields together at night, one of them receiving and wearing a flower from the other, kiss on the lips, etc.
Looks like he's going to grow up head over heels in love with her while being as prickly as a cactus with everyone else. She seems to like being with him, isn't afraid of his black hair, but does she just like him or love him too?

@feha Scar doesn't have blessings. Basically residual magic or essence from the fire spirit in the wound is informing other spirits she pissed off a major fire spirit and to stay away, similar to how a bee sting releases a scent informing other bees the one who got stung is an enemy and to attack. Since most magic is done through spirits (demon magic is an exception but will find out more about that later,) she can't cast magic because the spirits won't listen to her. Strangely enough this means she won't be targeted by attack magic as the spirits won't use any magic, good or bad, on or towards her. Btw, where's the Kuruuruus version you mentioned, is it in novelupdates.com or some other site?
 
@mathiason at least she was given the ability to cast magic from that scar. Or at least she did in this version. Kuruuruus version says she received a stigma and nothing about receiving its blessing.

@mathiason it is here on mangadex. If you check the list of chapters, you see there are doubles for almost all of them. If you read a chapter, then the different versions are listed in the sidebar for easy switching. The difference between the versions I pointed out is that in this version she receives a blessing in that text-bubble, while the other version translated same bubble as her being given a stigma just like you said.
