Like watching paint dry.

Master class.

This is a master class on how any harem or isekai world should be arranged.

This almost feels like some shitty fanfic put in by bad translators.....

This entire sidetrack is off rails. He's told her plenty of times she's cute in the past. It's just forced BS to move this slave trader plot along. Just as how Kurshe forgot the maximum length of their telepathy, how she has a wolf in her shadow that can make short work of most mobs, how she can hide people in her shadow, can teleport THROUGH shadows, etc.

More to your point, Lucas treated Kurche absolutely fine until this point. Calling her cute, admiring her in a dress—the works. It's just the author having everyone holding the idiot ball for the duration of the side trip.

Yup. Shitty and sloppy. This is entirely out of character and hardly worth the read.
- Lucas has complemented Kurshe on her looks before
- We know damn-well she pulls off the tomboy beauty role—again, Lucas has said this much
- EDIT: I forgot Kuu. Who would absolutely intervene on her master's behalf if she were drugged and rendered unconscious

None of this proceeding makes any sense, and it's painfully-obvious the author bent his characters to fit in this shitty side plot.

This is getting sloppy.

1. They have a plot device called a shadow wolf. It tracks scents great distances. Sniff around the girls room, then boom—bandits found.
2. Krushe's boob complex is very obviously out of left field specifically to set up this asinine "use the girls as bait" thread. They shouldn't have bothered.
3. Runa can fly. Scouting for signs of human population in wilderness shouldn't be any kind of issue.

This is just getting worse & worse.

If this doesn't get an actual antagonistic force, soon, there'll be no reason to continue.

Fuck the author for sticking with that shitty Christmas Cake trope.

The funniest part is he doesn't even have to love or covet them. Just make a contract that makes them princesses, and then leave them to run their land. The sword's ability is designed to build an empire based on satellite personas (The Princesses). But alas, he's an idiot.

Yuri is a degenerate disease.

Suddenly the guy trying to unify the land is "evil". Feh.

So we're not to take this even slightly seriously? Guess I'll be departing soon, then.

There's no average to be found, here. It's just junk food doing its best to be junk food. No plot to chase, no endearing characters, no good jokes or stand-out details about the setting. It's just going nowhere, fast. There's plenty of others that can take its place.

Forgotten how awful this group's translations skills were

Something something bad Shadow knockoff something something Shadow is superior

Liberal wonderland sophistry, as always with these builder simulation fantasies.

If there truly is one thing about Japanese authors I can't stand, its their incessant need to tease with what they genuinely dislike. Don't give us maid service if she's not getting her shouta, Christ.

They'd be sickened to the core. The ones who approved would be women.

And of course shouta never gets the maid.
