Well, it'd be nice if Rori could mess with the dark elf some more until that time comes. Rub a bit more salt to the wound.

Modern Kevlar is notoriously poor against stabbing weapons like knives, or swords that matter. Problem is getting in range of said rifleman. There IS a reason once semi modern firearms (a black powder rifled flintlock) things like pikes were abandoned with unseemly haste. Especially with the advent of the ring bayonet. Swords stuck around with cavalry for a bit longer, but, they went the same way in the end. Look into the Battle of Najaf sometime, it involved some pretty intense hand to hand fighting and the Marines bayonets were used in full force. Especially in between the graves, the marines couldn't see what was around every corner and had to clear it out the hard way.

Granted this IS a manga so Katana tends to trump fighter jet. But the author in this has tried to keep modern weapons capabilities in a pretty approximate ballpark.

I think Rory's both willing AND capable of squeezing as much humilation as she could from their dark elf guest.

Hence, why I refered to hard ballistic inserts into kevlar vests. A crossbow bolt may leave one of those plates damaged, but i doubt it'd penetrate through it.

Or JSDF can just order armor designed to deal with stabbing weapons and arrow. There are light armors for police guarantee protection againt knife stabbing

(and as I said before. So far the JSDF has been willing to kill hundreds of thousands of enemy soldiers who couldn't resist with artillery. While they haven't gone psycho rape and pillage, it's pretty obvious they're not concerned about body count as long as they're good and proper enemy combatants).
I did mention levelling city blocks or individual buildings.
And with cities there will almost certainly be civilians in firing line at some point, which is what i meant by ruthlessness.
Empire forces win only when JSDF lets them, the power disparity is just too great.

Aohige you need to mint more golden hannys!

Than sort of looks like how korean people sell their novels.
But you get the option of either leather or platinum.

Not a lovely fate. And she's not what you expect her to be either.
I'll leave it at that.

keh, yeah I noticed that to and thought it wa a bit of a laugh. Itami isnt the type of commander you bribe with gold and appeal, you bribe him with otaku mercendise! . I am hoping her attempts to bribe him pisses Rori even more off and she messes with the dark elf more.

1. this gonna be hard since there are only 4 book of reprint version, which is equal to 2 books of the old version( there are also subtle change though).you should try Jcafe.
2. Are You seriously gonna ask that question when you see the final book cover of the old version ???.
