I believe the main issue is that it was stated earlier in the story is that the empire practices collective punishment, so if she punished the duke her brother would also have to face the same punishment.

Yay new update

So that is Arc Mage's sister, neat.

I like this continues the tradition of Goblin Slayer media by making references to other works, in this case predator.

I like that this referenced the other side manga chapter where the guys went on their own adventure, nice continuity.

I like that they got a new party member, hopefully their group will grow with time. Also according to the wiki she is in the novels, so that is good that she is a canon character.

I had a feeling that the teachers would not allow Iruma to rank up, I think they believe Iruma is not ready yet. I mean having a student the same rank as the teachers is kind of ridiculous when you stop and think about it.

I am glad the translator explained the deal with the spider girl, I like when translators take time to explain the quirks of the Japanese language and the challenges of translating it to English.

So wait is the brother also not his son? I am confused.

That is one the most blatant ass pulls I have ever seen. I kinda like how shameless it is.

Well that explains what they have been plotting this whole time. One might wonder if all these cloak and dagger shenanigans are truly necessary. I mean it would just be easier to openly explain what your concerns are to your neighboring nations, I can't see why anyone would not understand the gravity of the threat posed by the northern continent, in light of how much more technologically advanced they are relative to the south. But I can understand why you would not want to risk your own nations security on the altruism of your neighbors.

I guess that mask must have had lenses because otherwise how the hell did he see without eyeholes.

Can't wait for season 3. These last few chapters make me want a Korean series based on South Korea's participation in the Vietnam War. The South Korean troops were some of the best who fought in that war and I think it would be the perfect setting for a manhwa.

Ha the emperor became a masked fighter at his son's request. I guess Theore thinks it will make his mom fall in love with him just like the story the emperor read to him.

Those fucking faces are just the best, I love this artist.

I think it is extremely obvious that the Duke is not her Father, so I hope that gets revealed soon. Because him having gotten cucked is only a start of all the bad things that bastard deserves.

Holy crap that is an awesome picture thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for that explanation. This is the first Murim story I have read and I am not familiar with a lot of the recurring themes and names.

I genuinely feel bad for Lucas, being stuck in a time loop without having a way out must be hell.
