Even just 1 step ahead that people aren't thinking about is that
1 of the largest granaries will start to amass stock.
This makes them a huge target for a nation during a time of famine.
Especially so since that nation has already proved to invade to relieve famine issues.

Some people seem to think that Yuri is a spy of the enemy nation but I think she was a plant by the Empress Dowager.
It's the only plausible reason the cousin would say Iris' life is at risk if her attendant keeps looking into it.

For a crucial pawn to gain awareness of who they are being used by is not a good outlook for the person who still needs to use them. It'd create grudges, opposition, and unwillingness for future cooperation. This is disastrous if a family who trains the imperial soldiers, holds a high authority, and substantial wealth becomes the pivotal figure to oppose imperial authority.

Though it seems rushed, if you look at the timeline it isn't.
At current, MC has been away from the capital for 4+ years.
Of the 4 years, Dean has become a close aid for 4+ months.

This means they've had a very close relationship where not only is he dependable, but also intellectually supportive. He's also nobility who happens to be handsome. With the stress of being "rejected used goods", a "perfect" man who also gets along with her family has become entangled with her daily life.

Though I would agree from a chapters standpoint, the interactions of 4 months would usually take up 20+ chapters. Because it would be too repetitive to see the same tasks done just to include a "buildup" of attraction, they opted to time-skip.

what a dumb ending. She wants to inherit the family, and this was the greatest chance. If they truly wanted, they could overthrow the imperial family with cash alone. Why bother with the rank disputes. If it really came to it, they could turn to a different country for help. Or even hire assassins. That'd probably be easier than throwing money at knights, soldiers, mercs, and smithies.

feel like everyone missed the main point. The duke family is using him as a trojan horse to another family.

Basically, whoever he is getting engaged to, he has the full support of a Ducal family. They need to trap another family to reap profits. Of course, they will push to annul the previous engagement with everything they have.

PAW

Honestly, the rant is biased. Tags are literally the worst indicator of a story. Unless they start including sub-genre tags to sites, its hard to judge a story from tags alone.

Action - focuses on fighting
Sub-action contains fights
Comedy - heavily emphasizes funny things
Sub-comedy has comedic relief

But even then, tags like comedy are too vague since raunchy humor is different to intellectual humor. Not everyone will find either or both funny.
Just like this story has a delinquent, it heavily changes the story if it's the MC, MC party member, minor antagonist, or major antagonist. The tag itself isn't a good indicator of what the story is about.

Anyways,
Just justifying that no trans-dimensional (or foresight) knowledge is mentioned is enough to shrug off isekai (reincarnation/time travel) tag missing.

it did say that they could sustain their wealth even with 3 generations of bad decisions

No, it's not.
Self interest is doing things that benefit SELF.

In this case, it's concern for the lord. They don't want others to take advantage of him leaving himself with nothing.

me hoping i can become fooly

I figured it had to do with being a magic swordsman. When we saw others, he had seen the wendigo which had already made me suspicious of him being one, or a descendant on the tribe that worshipped them.

They've hinted many times but isn't it weird that the demon king keeps giving his soldiers the WORST commands. It's like he is purposely losing.

I don't think it's war heroes aren't respected.
It feels closer to a soldier's broken mentality. Killing people leads to 3 various personality deviations.
• view themselves as killers
• view themselves as defenders
• lose feeling towards life/death

MC was disrespected bc he was viewed as a tool. This guy uniquely forsakes his past as a killer. The soldier girl idolizes him, where he himself despises what he has done.

The more I think about it, the more the crown prince seems to be suspicious.

The crown prince is super suspicious since he's the "declared heir" who will lose his title. Using slaves to make the oldest prince rampage thereby disqualifying him from throne since he will kill the "4th in line", Juliana is already married off to "a great nation". If it's the Empire (the faction hiding in the school), then it would make sense since the crown prince would be in charge of foreign affairs since the father is bedridden. The father being bedridden is a great way to stop the deposition of the crown prince to name Diana with a dying will, so killing her before would also discredit the will, thus ascending to thrown. And the oldest brother is being very overt so he wouldn't make a great spy. It feels more like he's a pawn than a proper chess piece.

The only person more suspicious would be the brother who shows no interest since he could rise after the fights are finished with an untouched army. His justification would be to pin the blame on the most suspicious for orchestration everything.

Assassins are usually taught to be disposable pawns. Much like suicide bombers, they believe dying for their lord is the most honorable life.

Given the circumstances, being a guard and the princess dying is already grounds for execution, if not worse, execution by torture. It's far better to die in this situation.

Although long winded, 100%.

A stink was raised just to emphasize the fact that MC cannot use magic weapons. It was literally a good portion of the chapter in an attempt to make the reader aware of this fact.

Based on this logic, even if he received a magic item capable of KILLING ANYTHING, it'd still be useless since he can't use it.

Higher tier streamers often make highlight reels ~30sec to 1:30. Highlighting different factors like comedy (5 musketeers), or pure skill (oh sheet shot w/ bow) helps streamers connect with more viewers. Especially since most viewers don't want to cycle through 40min matches to get to a gunfight, only to watch them lose AND not be funny.

Since with a live stream there is the chance to be noticed, it becomes more immersive. But if you can't interact, there becomes no attachment.
People want to be wow'd or amused through non-live streams. If they don't know the streamer, they won't stick around unless they see something worth their time.

Basically, highlights are ads put out by the streamer to draw in more customers.

depends on distance

if gravity, wind, curvature, barrel heat, and humidity (formless forces) can affect a sniper round, a physical object will for sure alter its path.

again, depends on the [distance fired vs impact angle] vs [impact point vs intended target]. FYI most of the variables listed are for shooting 500+ meters (~ 0.4 mi). So, at some point, it can deflect. In this case it's unrealistic since a 50cal will go through 5+ walls before tumbling at close range.

some battle royal start on the ground in a "pre-game lobby" until it gathers all participants

call of duty
fortnite
PUBG

idk what they do now but IR some of them doing it

Dude made a friend out of a shoe-in
when he got fired, he quit his high paying job to manage his friend
worked on setting up his friend's career for free
cut off his own family support just to keep helping his friend

if his friend fails, he's literally screwed. This is faith.
