Discussion Guidelines

  • Please blur/hide any major events in the current week’s pages (however early they occur), like so: text here (that’s [spoiler]text here[/spoiler]).
  • If you have a question about grammar, vocab, the story, cultural things or literally anything else related to the book — ask! There is really no need to be hesitant. If it’s something you are wondering about, chances are someone else will be thankful you asked first, lots of people enjoy answering questions, you learn something new, and the thread gets more lively. It’s a win-win on all fronts!
  • Don’t forget to put on your club-supplied cat ears for a more immersive experience while reading. You will find them under your seat.

Thoughts while reading

固めた空気の強度を上げるには、前世の記憶にある高圧プレスをイメージしている。
高圧プレスなど存在しない世界では、高圧縮のイメージができないから空気を実用強度に固められず、空属性は役立たずな属性というレッテルができあがったのかもしれない。

Ah, finally some insight into that matter! I… guess I can live with that explanation?

みんな村の仕来りみたいないものに従って、黙々と毎日を過ごしている

What’s the みたいないもの there? Is that supposed to be みたいなもの?

「要するに俺は、ゼオルさんの退屈しのぎってことですね？」

Nyango can really be a bit blunt. (Another thing that I don’t remember feeling while reading the manga.)

身体強化魔法は、人から人へと受け継がれていくので『人の魔法』と呼ばれているそうだ。

Sounds like he’s really lucky to have found a mentor there!

朝起きたら、家の近くの草地に行って棒術の練習を行い、薬草摘みやモリネズミの捕獲を終えた夕方から身体強化魔法の手ほどきを受ける。

Nyango’s days have really grown quite long, huh.

門前払いにしてくれれば良いのにと思っていたのだが、ミゲルは二回目の素振りの指導で飽きたらしく、三回目には現れなかった。

Aw. I actually thought that maybe him being jealous of Nyango would lead to him bettering himself, but… so much for that.

I’m getting a bit bored reading about his staff/body strengthening training. It doesn’t help that it feels a harder to read.

「じゃあ、次は身体強化して走ってみろ。最初は二割程度の力で試せ」

Haha. “Please run, but very very slowly.”

二割の力で普段の全力に相当する力が出せるなら、四割で普段の倍、六割なら普段の三倍、全力なら普段の五倍ぐらいの力が出せるかもしれない。

What happened to poor 八割?!

Anyway, looks like he got a good deal here - even if he can’t actually use it to get 500% strength/speed, I guess it’ll make physical movement much easier for him as long as he has enough magical energy left.

And now, the training arc is finally over, right? Right? We can start actually using all this knowledge to something practical with it?
