I asked Chatgpt a bunch of questions in this regard. Chatgpt said that while in Chinese, Korean, or Japanese there are ambiguous words equivalent to "celestial body" type meaning that a author might use to sound more grand. All three the average person would know a equivalent to a specific word "planet" and a specific equivalent word to "star" and would never mix them up no matter how poor their education or indifferent to scientific accuracy.

So in short two possibilities as I have come to understand the situation from Chatgpt..

1. A more ambiguous word meaning something equivalent to "celestial body" was used to sound grander and the translator carelessly translated to star ignoring the context.

2. "Planet" was specified but something like Machine Translation was used or a extremely unskilled translator, though chatgpt thought MT without editorial checking made much more sense.

3, The author originally specified "star" in reference to a planet. But chatgpt says extremely unlikely.

Really both strongly point to MT as it requires ignoring context either way.

BTW this comic is indicated by MK to be Chinese based on the front page with the slight cultivation flavor to things.

Well whether it does or not, I still blame a translator for not seeing it is a planet being spoken of and not using that word. If translators are willing to say "chess" when "go" etc is meant, then they can use "planet" when "planet" is clearly meant. You aren't machine translation, use context! Or do these people not know the difference themselves.

"Japanese the word for star and planet is the same, or share a Kanji"
I wonder how Japanese astronomers deal with that. Maybe they use one of the other writing versions or just use a made up specialized term or a English term or something.

passing out just for being told a bunch of stuff you didn't understand....

Looks so much like the main evil in Centaur World, The Nothing King.

Also big bad MC sitting there tied up...

I wonder what the deal is with these asian comics that call planets "stars" I know at least one other comic that regularly does that. Though I do note they use "planet" last chapter but "azure star" this one.

But it does look like different groups translated this.

I wanted to join their Discord to talk about this, but I can't find it.

Well they could come back or stop the enemy before it comes to Earth. I think the point is if your battle to protect earth destroys it in the process that is the very definition of a pyrric victory Not to mention all the battles that have nothing to do with saving the world.

She directly said the bear hug brother was es type.

Shinning gold light behind the eyes? WTF are you taking about MC.

Destroy the roots? Planets grow back from their roots

Playing so bad it breaks the laws of physics and magically travels through the void of space and a massive distance as well

But Leo has no arms....

Who is Lucas?

OR says it wouldn't be either person MC figured wouldn't be the cause anyway. Manager or DS don't make sense for the cause, Occan says they are not the cause. What could be the source, look at the simplest solution, what has changed. I don't think OR is saying for people not to use their head or invent things as explanation when otherwise they wouldn't know.

I think I see what they are going for. Like give MC a break for not being faster. But they could have had a proper scout or couldn't the mage for example do it? Mapping and figuring out directions and best paths should be in a scholars wheelhouse. I still feel this reply doesn't fit though.

Mistranslation or does author not do math, at all?

I guess since the captain's consciousness was part of the disintegrating boss monster it cobbled together enough of it's flesh to create a human heart and them puppeted part of the boss monster to give it to MC? You know shoving lump of monster flesh in someone to replace a missing heart and the operation amounting to shoving it into a chest cavity. I didn't know heart surgeons had it so easy. I am in no way saying that makes sense but it's a explanation.

If it could just make a new core it would have done so for itself but if it's a human heart then it couldn't? But then it sounded like MC would keep the powers, did MC have a monster core before, did MC need a monster core to transform?

I'm actually good with MC living even if the how of it doesn't make much sense. Authors have to plot armor their MC, I think fan history shows that unless your story had changing MC that easily died or something from the start a author can't afford to kill off their MC, they'd loose too much popularity. It is also hella problematic for writing story when you destroy the core of the story, so you have a massive popularity lose and ratchet up writing difficulty to high levels at the same time.

We all know MC lose their plot armor near the end, But I still want a happy story. All sorts of story contrivance annoy me but give me my happy endings! That said there are other ways to give us a happy ending where MC lives without this kind of thing. But I can see what the author was going for.

The kid should have just took the flask of poison (that was way too big) and pretended to follow the order. Smash the flask and run off when you are out of sight. It's such a simple and obvious choice. But this is a world of idiots and crazy people.

Like this Mercia, why the fuck would she be after Sharione. I really should take this off of follows. It's getting back into crazy stupid territory again. Maybe one more chapter, see if the story gives any real justification for this.

Yeah but you couldn't see past the monster dropping a body in the middle of the match as anything but random, but you're convinced by so little of a nefarious plot. Helmut is feeling a bit inconsistent here.
