Irene’s snark is even sharper than her limbs.

The staff is but a key to a lock he didn’t know he had built, or a bit of straw used to flick the nose of the sleeping dragon.

But… it’s a steeck!

“Say what now? What exhaustion? Let me talk to you all night about this topic!”

Too late to fix isn’t a thing if you have magic that can regenerate lost limbs in the first place.

Because that would only mean at most that it’s too late to fix without cutting a bit more of the limb off first.

Alas, in manga universes, “hero” is often used in the ollllld sense of “famous person who does big, difficult things, regardless of whether those things are good, bad, neither, or even actually worth doing in the first place.”

Herakles’ famous labors were penance for murdering his family, Odysseus got lost on a relatively tiny sea for several years and made up a ton of tall tales about monsters that don’t exist, Paris got horny for someone else’s wife and started a massive regional war to get her for himself (and a bunch of other “heroes” showed up to join in the war crimes good times!) and this is just off the top of my head without going to look up more.

Haha, I knew it. Magic princess is waifu.

Precisely. And the financiers that funded the studio and will actually reap the profits are the owners of the whaling ships.

Guessing it’s Magic Princess?

Clever lad, turning the alchemist who made the poison that killed you in your previous timeline into your step brother in this one!

Oh, Gold-kun is looking… woof!

No, MC had to buy some expensive materials to get the mystical beast armor made. That’s where his IRL money went.

So his brother is unknowingly hired to be his cybersecurity guardian, and his not-a-girlfriend is now his inside agent at his chief antagonist’s organization. Nice developments!

Which itself was a reference to whalers on the high seas getting rich by profiting off the corpse of said whales…

Eh, Gold did surpass Lucky briefly, but he peaked as werewolf boss and went downhill from there. Silver is way ahead of Gold now and working hard to revive goodboy Lucky!

Nah, it was actually kinda predictable. Ironic enough that it didn’t fall flat, but far from the peak humor expected from this!

Would smash either way. 😎

Yall have to remember, he’s playing World of Whalecraft, where even the stream viewers throw cash around like cake at a 1 year old’s birthday party.

And now the sponsorship cyclone begins to spin up. MC is gonna move out of that shitty apartment soon!

CEO-kun must be psychic.
