I legit think she hasn't been mentioned or shown even once before now. Already a fan of her, though.

It'd probably be closer to "was his face always so radiant?" Using light-related terms for attractiveness isn't absent in English, it's just not "shiny".

I'll be right there with you if he does something like that, though this touches on something important. In literature there's something known as the "moral event horizon", where a character does something so heinous they can no longer be redeemed in a narrative sense. It's a bit of a meta analysis, but this story has been rather lighthearted and largely avoided serious topics or thought, with the latest chapter being a prime example of that—a more gritty or serious mafia story could have had her poisoned or similar, but she passed out after just a little bit of alcohol, turning the seriousness into comedy instead. It's hard for me to imagine the author pushing the male lead beyond the moral event horizon after all the effort they've gone into establishing him as sympathetic and misunderstood. I could be wrong, but this author just doesn't seem the type, so there's probably not much to worry about.

Her being related to murderers is actually a strong reason why this makes sense. How many people has her father killed in his lifetime as the mafia family head? What about her bodyguard whom she is close to, who can casually say he's trained to kill people? And yet, despite being part of the mafia and doing bad things, they're still good people and people she cares about.

It's been shown there's a lot of uncertainty about whether Leonardo is the actual villain—this isn't a matter of "letting the Joker live". It's worth pointing out Batman himself is a criminal who runs around as a vigilante beating the crap out of people, and yet he's typically not portrayed as a villain for the readers.

Looks like the solution to the floor's problem is going to be an egg hunt.

These censors, man. And of course, I always end up reading it as worse than the original actually was....

That's not the case. Although Krampus has to fall back into a defensive fight now, that's only because she'd lied to him, causing him to overextend his forces towards the fortress. If he'd found out about her loss and knew things were so disadvantaged, he could have easily called off his march, withdrawn, and started assaulting Runda's territory with the troops instead. Krampus could have even contacted Nebula and come to some manner of truce before or after he initiated hostilities with Runda; Nebula hadn't made any overt attacks towards his territory despite the persistent sabotage, so it's not beyond the possibility Nebula simply has other things he wants to focus on rather than actually marching on Krampus's land.

Runda is in a terrible position right now, and it would not surprise me in the slightest if Nebula used it against her. The fact she withheld such important information for her own sake means the alliance isn't that strong, and she's also willing to betray for her own gain (or to prevent her own loss).

It's a bit annoying how many liberties the author takes with the MC's power level, raising it up or pushing it down whenever it's convenient for the plot. Why is he performing so much better here than in the test against his "rival"? He's dodging multiple magic attacks with ease without even being able to move his feet and casually cutting people down from multiple angles, but it wasn't even eight chapters ago he was struggling to overcome a single student combatant. It's hard to feel invested in this great and terrible faction when there's probably a dozen and a half characters in the academy alone who could single-handedly stomp it down, at least according to comparative power scaling.

Hell yeah. I was worried it got axed or dropped or something.

aFFi is correct here. Incel is Involuntary Celibate, meaning someone who wants to have sex but is unable to do so for whatever reason; this is distinct from someone who doesn't want to actually deal with it. You're probably looking for "misogynist", which means someone who hates women. "Incel" is often conflated with "misogynist", but definitionally they're not the same; not all incels hate women, and not all misogynists are incels.

End of Chapter 51 into beginning of Chapter 52. There was a kissing scene, candles went out, and it was stated Kalli only returned to his own room at dawn.

How many times has it been now? It feels damned forced, like a way to shoehorn drama and desperation to fight despite Kalli being basically addicted to fighting. It's obvious what's going to happen. Kalli's going to fight to make money, and go to increasingly more and more dangerous stuff... but he would have done that even without the impetus of paying back Azalea's debts, because he isekai'd in order to be a fighter.

I know it's probably just a typo, but Kali throwing 4k in someone's face when they ask for 35k and telling them to keep the change is such a gangster move. Things are about to get super spicy if that wasn't a typo, though. xD

Liquor wouldn't kick in that quickly for only that much. It's almost certainly poison, imo.

Looks like I'm going to drop yet another series due to abrupt drop in art quality. So much for the binge...

Maybe. I definitely think she could have argued down the severity at the bare minimum—especially in states that are incredibly intolerant of domestic abuse—but it's harder to gauge if she could argue self-defense legitimately, especially since what happened in the store itself is a bit glossed over. I actually wanted to look up if there were some cases similar to this that could show whether it could or could not come to pass, but damned if it's not a pain to actually find and search for this stuff.

Was a fun discussion though.

The danger doesn't have to be real as long as the belief was credible. You're right, stalking probably wouldn't make it a proper defense on its own, but the man has a history of repeated physical violence against his family—a past history of assault against the client in this case—and entered the store drunk, which through his stalking behavior can be presumed due to seeking her out specifically rather than just accidental. If she didn't say anything about protecting the store and instead focused on how she was trying to protect herself, I'd assume it would either lessen or remove any punishment she received. The question is whether she used excessive force, but it seems like a single blow to the head with a hammer, and her using a weapon will likely be waved away because she's a younger female against an older male who has already been successfully physically abusive in the past.

Really? Some rando who's barely in the story at all caught up to the MC who's pretty blatantly overpowered, and has been shown to be overbearingly so in every major conflict he comes into, including in this very arc when he casually went up against a bunch of his own classmates who couldn't do a thing to him? Uh huh. Uh huh. Suuuuuuure. I totally believe this guy—a near literal who?—is managing to keep up with the MC who has more combat experience through his past life than probably the entire first, second, and third year classes combined, on top of every other boon he's gotten during the series. This is just dumb.
