Why was this asked?

Where do you see that?

Maybe it's a different translation of the chapter now, this time it's "kind gesture" but still pretty close to "favor", either way stupid.

If slavery is illegal, they are talking about making up for a crime with more crime.

If slavery and bribery are not illegal, then who's to say MC wouldn't criminally prosecute them anyway.

If MC was the type of person who would take slaves, then es a pretty awful person who you wouldn't want to be enslaved to or trust to honor a deal to avoid criminal prosecution.

On the flip side, it's just two people traveling together, how are they suppose to control two other human beings that could just run away or attack you in your sleep? If you chain them up it would even be more problematic and pointless.

Also MC couldn't really prove those charges to go after them anyway. Also if MC had been guilty wouldn't all that stuff still be illegal anyway. Also you presume alot to assume some jail time would be worse than being enslaved for life. What proof do you have that this worlds prison system is so atrocious?

In the end why not offer MC money or equipment or other valuables as a bribe, or tried bribing any theoretical investigator, (if slavery is a thing here then so is massive corruption) not try to enslave two guild members. No matter the angle, this is stupid plot.

The "master" is probably not really a physician at all. Seems more a master of death than of life. Tong is probably a much more skilled physician than Master.

You can physically see differences of brains based on environment. Like someone who is a musician has physical differences in their brain than someone who is not. Or a person involved in physics etc. And sexism can play a role in whether a male or female will do this or that in their life. Even things like women generally suffering more stress and trauma than men ON AVERAGE could probably be seen on effects of brain scans. There is no study that has definitively pointed to some definitive part of the human brain that is sex based totally separate from environment and all of it is based on averages. You can easily find the characteristics of any brain structure on a man or a woman.

no... I've had a decent size spider slide down on a line in front of my face and was fine. Why would I be scared of a caterpillar, sudden or not

I really hate the art of this sometimes

Making someone lighter weight seems like it would be counterproductive in this situation. Your weight would be useful for staying on the back with the wind generated from movement and for either pickax strikes or drills, either way "putting your weight into it" sure would be useful.

The drills just made on the spot from a drawing on the spot at this late stage, really stretching credulity here.

When you're that evil, why not add massive hypocrisy to the pile

I'd like to take a semi-neutral stance on the polygamy business.
Overall I'm against polygyny, that's one man married to multiple women. Especially if polyandry one women married to multiple men is not allowed. Or group marriage for that matter. The biggest issue is power imbalance. Male favoring sexism is based on things like this.

And the story does seem to kind of ham fist the polygamy in. Especially as even if Roxy was pregnant, that is still no excuse to marry Roxy. Roxy could live with them, get support and help child raising all without being in a romantic or sexual relationship with Rudy. And we don't know Roxy is pregnant, story is kind of double speaking like it matters and doesn't matter at the same time. Not that it matters but they are two different species, can there even be half breeds?

Also there is no need to rush to decide something like that and they got the order wrong. First person that should have been asked is Sylphy, no point in even bringing the topic up till Sylphy approves.

On the flip side the story does well establish the relationship with each woman and Rudy's personality is such that he lkely won't let it get to his head, no "head of the household" nonsense.

Does anyone know what that onomatopoeia in the upper right corner is? With the exclamation marks or something.

I usually see them with disposable plastic bag covers which addresses both of your issues and makes it so no disinfecting needed. But that does mean additional cost and waste. If you wait long enough the taste of the rubbing alcohol should be gone completely. But couldn't soap and water do the job....

Via armpit is less accurate, but I suppose sufficient to determine if you are sick or not. You don't want to reduce a fever anyway usually.

I asked chatgpt about your theory that having to aim upwards makes shots, even really old gun shots prerifled, wildly more inaccurate, and it said you were wrong. Don't take chatgpt's word for it, you might say, well it's still more than what you've offered, which is nothing.

"Shooting upwards, it's always much more difficult than shooting downwards"

So you baselessly claim

" vs being on any floor of a building shooting from a window"

I definitely never said cover isn't extremely helpful. Someone attacking you from a hill and you're even just in a house with a window to shoot from in that direction, you have the advantage despite being on lower ground.

A kid says something careless, you let it pass. Hell kids being assholes with words, you generally let that pass. Hopefully this one is only going to use words, for everyone's sake, his included.

All that is stuff outside the gun though. High ground matters if you need to run at your opponent if they are under cover or can't keep using the gun because of limitations in ammo amount and reload time. Whenever the gun stops being a element of the combat high ground matters again. But while gun is a element of battle it generally doesn't matter much. It matters slightly since bullets can technically travel father that way, but at the range where that becomes a factor, accuracy is shit anyway, with old fashion guns especially.

But two sides with lots of ammo, modern guns, no cover and no feeling to need to charge at the other side. One side being half way up a hill on higher ground will not really have any advantage over another side at the base of the hill.

Sniping is a bit different because high ground gives you better field of vision with less obstacles, but still depends on being hidden. A sniper is super exposed if enemy knows where they are, cover aside.

I get the feeling that we aren't really disagreeing that much and some people are just misunderstanding me a bit. So let's not argue this anymore. Though I still flatly disagree with Flashplayer that aiming upwards makes a significant difference in accuracy.

I read pretty far in though.

I guess Tong Fong was Murdering's personal physician.

This reveal makes that character make more sense. I was thinking even at the beginning of the chapter back to where that asshole was pleading to spare the leader of the bandits while everyone else was being murdered in cold blood and acting like it was saintly to do so.
