Well....finally someone made a thread for this. I really enjoy this LN and currently waiting for PROzess translation of the next chapter ( actually prefer this more than wordmaster)
I am reading the WN version of this and I am in the part where one of Aura's husband candidate send his little sister to be Zenjirou's concubine.

There is a chance of Zenjirou getting a harem but he seems uninterested and focuses his attention to Aura only as I have read in spoilers. I doubt it does turn harem(though I am okay if it does) and I am okay with him being devoted only to Aura and their child

Aura is ok with the Harem at the start because it is beneficial for politics. So Zenjirou got a harem without his knowledge. However down the line Aura wants to monopolize him.

So does Zenjirou get a harem or not? I thought Aura wanted monopolize Zenjirou the more she started liking him and that harem was only planned and not actually executed. I'm wasn't sure if harem does indeed happen

Read the Chinese translation for this series a bit ago... That's currently up to V4, Ch 3 (only a little of the chapter though).
The most interesting thing, I've found, is Zenjirou's own character development, from a guy who really just wants to take advantage of Aura's own political desires to relax and slack off, to someone who genuinely loves his wife and wants to work hard to help her out as much as possible. I'm somewhat of a sucker for romance, so this bit really hits me where I live.
This series, in my opinion, is fairly slice of life. The few conflicts that arose tend to be political, and those are generally handled fairly smoothly by Zenjirou and Aura. The various materials Zenjirou brings from Earth tend to mostly just help make things comfortable for Zenjirou, Aura, and the inner palace staff rather than change the world. For example, the most often used pieces of technology tend to be stuff like his cooler (the maids love the cold towels and ice cubes, what with them being in a fairly tropical setting). Zenjirou just wants to take it easy, and the lack of a technological revolution brought by his presence reflects that and keeps to the theme.
So does Zenjirou get a harem or not? I thought Aura wanted monopolize Zenjirou when she started liking him.
No he doesn't. In fact, his (and Aura's) desire to not have a harem actually ends up being one of those political conflicts I mentioned, where Zenjirou has to start making appearances in court in order to preemptively establish that certain things pertaining to him (his lack of a harem and his lack of political ambition) is due to his personal desire and not Aura oppressing him.
In fact, he and Aura has multiple planning sessions on how to do this. Man loves his wife.

I think this is great. I see no need for harem in this story anyway but I do need to see more children from the couple

Has this story been purely political conflicts no wars?
The war just ended and the only royalty left is Aura and many nobles and aristocrat died in that war before the start of the story. That is the reason why Aura needs to produce an heir as soon as possible to ease the mind of the masses.

Yeah, they're waiting on that. After the first child, Carlos (I think that's his name?), they ended up deciding to wait a bit. Aura was so busy that I think they decided to wait for things to calm down a bit before they go for another (with the side effect of them putting their sex life on hold too, given the lack of contraceptives)
It is the chinese translation of the LN right? Do you happen to have a link to it?The Chinese version of the name is 理想的小白脸生活. Being unable to read Japanese, I'm obviously not able to vouch for the accuracy of the translation, but I do tend to trust translations posted on such widespread hosting sides such as sfacg and lightnovel.cn...
I thought in volume 2 one of his harem candidate the little sister of the general started living in the castle and his magic tutor is also one of the harem candidates.
Aha, no... The sister does not get any attention outside of official functions, and the Octavia the magic tutor is married. They (Aura, her adviser, and Zenjirou) actually wondered if Octavia was there to try to seduce Zenjirou (even to the point of wondering if her husband has an NTR fetish). In fact, when it comes to hiring a magic tutor, most of the candidates suggested were young, pretty women, making it obvious what the ones who made the suggestions were hoping for. In fact, it's because Aura and her adviser concluded that such a thing was unlikely for Octavia that they ended up choosing her as the tutor in the end.
There's actually a short bit where it's mentioned that Zenjirou's faithfulness (and cultural differences in part) is damaging for the inner palace's maids' confidence. He basically treats them like the staff at high class places (hotels/restaurants/etc), I.E. - limiting his interactions with them as much as possible, treating them politely and professionally, etc. He doesn't touch them, doesn't look excessively, doesn't call them at all unless he needs something. In fact, when they come in to clean, he'd leave the room until they're done. Cultural differences ahoy.
As an additional service, have a brief quote, regarding the maids:
确实，作为王国的一个国民，虽然会对女王和她丈夫的和睦感到高兴，但对于这些对自己的美貌很有自信的年轻侍 女来说，多少会抱有复杂的心情。
Truthfully, as the citizen of a kingdom, although they're happy that the Queen and her husband gets along, but for these young maids who are quite confident in their appearance, they'd at least have some complicated feelings.
现在她们所穿的嘉帕王国的侍女服装，跟发源地北大陆的相比，已经很薄了。
Right now their Carpa Kingdom's maid uniform, compared to the north where they were originally invented, is already very thin.
蓝色的短裙才到膝盖附近，手臂则是完全的无袖装。虽然不至于把胸围什么的明显凸显出来，但年轻侍女们的服装 已经很有诱惑力了。
Blue short skirt reaching only to about the knee, arms are left without sleeves. Although it's not to the point where their bras or anything would obviously show, but the young maids' uniforms already has quite a bit of charm.
但是，侍女们的主人，至今为止还是没有碰过她们一根手指。
But, the maids' master, up until now still hasn't so much as laid one finger on them.
如果原本就是对女人很冷淡类型的话也还能理解，但跟女王陛下的夜间交合明明是这么积极，每天早上的卧室里还 有这么些“物证”存在。
If it's that he's uninterested in women from the start it'd be understandable, but his nightly intercourse with the queen is obvious this energetic, and every morning the bedroom still has that much "evidence" left.
当然，侍女们倒也并非特别希望女王的夫婿能够“有所表示”，但这样毫不关心的话，多少会伤及作为女人的自尊 心。
Of course, the maids don't especially hope the Queen's husband would "express interest', but if he's this uncaring, at the very least it will hurt their self confidence as women.

The child will be born, the pics are clear, from the spoilers is a reverse couple, working wife, stay home husband.
I hope it get a manga soon, it would help make it popular and probably people would join the translation team.

Do whatever you want, while I would like to see more done, I'd rather find something else to do and check back in a few weeks than sit around pestering the few people willing to invest their valuable time and energy doing translations for absolutely nothing in return.

We are fine with you PROzezz, don't mind the leechers rushing you . I understand how they feel but they should start reading the mood a little.
I made a thread of "what to bring with you if you are moving to a fantasy world (and won't be able to return for at least 30 years)" on 4chan and unintentionally spoiled myself on future events in this novel, which made me drop it. :(
BTW, leading suggestions were "antibiotics", "guns/bullets" and "lots of manuals".

I wonder how he fared as a parent should the kid be born tho.Not much of one actually.
Pretty much everything related to childcare is done by the maids, leaving him without much to do. In fact, he's actually not allowed to interact much with little Carlos (think that's the name).
The reason is because of the nature of Language. We all sort of suspended our disbelieve when Zenjirou, who is Japanese, could communicate perfectly with the people of Carpa, which I think is a somewhat Hispanic-like country in another world. However, there actually is a real reason behind it. There's something of a universal translation spell on that world, the details of which Zenjirou learned about early on when he tried recording Aura's lecture on magic for later review, but when he tried replaying it it just all came out as gibberish to him.
The problem that arises after Carlos is born is that, basically, due to how the translation spell actually works, Carlos needs to learn a single language properly for it to work right in the future, and a bilingual environment could hamper that process and lead to confusion in his language development that might adversely affect how the translation spell will apply to him later in life.
Thus, until Carlos himself learns to talk, Zenjirou is pretty much forbidden from speaking Japanese to him. At this point, all Zenjirou is allowed to do is silent interaction and the one phrase that Zenjirou can properly speak in the "south continent western language" without any pronunciation mistakes (as vetted by Aura): "It's daddy".
That is cruel, but at least he can be a father with him, he just have to shut up for 4-5 years.
now i seriously will wait pantiancely for the translation.
from the spoiler make me think this story will light and enjoyable.
gambate prosezz.

Contrary to what we might think, Zenjirou actually has a certain amount of "scheduled work time", although most of it isn't actually literally work. He also brought a ton of stuff like DVDs to watch or games to play for when he's alone and isn't working on a personal project.
As for work, other than his regularly scheduled magic lessons with Octavia, he actually does have a bit of involvement when it comes to politics, in that he basically has to.
Although both he and Aura would prefer for him to not get involved, it is necessary for him to make appearances. Otherwise, it's possible that rumors of "the Queen is oppressing her husband" will get started, so he needs to actively appear every now and again in court, and treat with nobles by himself (separate from Aura), to counter any possible rumors of Aura forcibly controlling him or anything.
Keep in mind that from the point of view of Carpa culture, what's expected is for Zenjirou to take the reigns in governmental affairs, as well as keep a harem. What Zenjirou and Aura wants is contrary to that expectation though, so they need to do PR stuff to actively give the impression that the contrariness to expectation isn't due to Aura forcing Zenjirou down, but what Zenjirou wants himself. That means making appearances in court and stuff like that...
Building on that, it also means before Zenjirou could make appearances and stuff, he needs to study up on various stuff like courtly protocol, the who's who of nobility, general etiquette, etc...
Generally, he tends to support Aura from outside the spotlight. He also sometimes work on his own personal projects, like making alcohol, soap, or reinventing other little bits of Earth knowledge/technolog. Aura also appreciate them, as they tend to end up pretty enjoyable for her at least or end up raising the royal revenue at best.

thanks Mechatrill, that clears things up quite a bit.
Hmm although i would prefer this to be harem, but the description sounds enjoyable and to be truthful i also like the idea of MC being monogamist since in many WN the characters seems to get girls for free (and second since queen is has quite mature body so i'm not afraid that author add to harem some loli - too much lolis i've seen in last WN)
A nice change to the trend, the motive the MC is summoned is for sticking to a single girl, maybe people will try to force a harem on him but at least is not the usual guy who can't decide and in the end is implied he go with the undeserving tsundere.
According to baka-updates the last chapter translated was chapter 1 released by Unlimited Novel Failures 30 days ago? Is the translation still going or was it dropped?

Just finished reading the translated chapters. It has an interesting premise, thanks PROzess for working on this, it's quite entertaining.
Although for me, I felt that the author overdid it a bit on his preparation stages for going back. things like the stuff on his work place & the generator stuff could have been summarized better or shorter, I felt that it "overstayed its welcome" of sorts.

Haha, and as far as I've read in the web novel version, the whole thing seems to go like that. It feels very similar to Spice and Wolf or Maoyu where the main focus is more on their normal everyday lives rather than the other world fantasy elements. The real draws of the story are Aura's politicking, her evolving relationship with Zenjirou, and how Zenjirou's common knowledge of modern day Earth influences the development of Aura's world.

Hopefully the next chapter will have some actual story, and not just be about Zenjirou setting up his appliances in Aura's Palace.
Somehow I seriously doubt that much will happen though.

It will SURELY have him setting it up... what we can hope is that the process doesn't take more than half the chapter ^^'
the concept of this LN is surely refreshing... up to chapter 2 I was totally drawn in... but that chapter full of redundant explanation really killed the momentum a lot...
Still pretty interesting and I'm eager to see if that was only a slip on the author side or will be the trend every time something from our world is introduced... (just to be clear... giving an explanation of what and why it is being introduced is good... going in depth on how it can change things is also REALLY good... but this time it was just a redudant description... he thinking... he thinking... he thinking again... that he getting it... and he explaining once again why he chose that...)

Well, it was bad in the beginning since that "reality" isn't what we wanted or expected. Even if it happens later it will at least be in the new world & it's part of the world building as we the readers also learn alongside the MC (hopefully).
Also while such elements were in Spice & Wolf, at least there the constant witty remarks & flirting between Horo & Laurence in between the expositions were nicely done that you were absorbing it at a nice pace as well as getting amused at the interactions between the two.
Yes, I did enjoy Spice & Wolf, and yes I loved the ending as well. For me, it was a fun journey & a satisfying end).

The Queen certainly won't marry someone else. The very reason why she looked for her husband in a different world is because if she had married someone from her own due to the patriarchic nature of her kingdom she would have ended as a mere ornament on his arm without any real power. Moreover while people expect a powerful man to have a concubine or two a woman certainly can't do the same.
A queen with a harem is totally normal in certain countries but thankfully is not in this one.
This is a country with a tradition of kings commanding and seems like the previous queens never done anything too great or too little, they simple toke the baton and then passed it.
Aura is not like them, she wants to reorganize the country after the war, she rightly thinks a husband from her world would take all the power and screw up the country in its already weak state, but she was forced to take one and in desperation decided to bet on the runaway ancestors.

a) politician
b) hero
c) wise king
d) scientiest
e) engineer
f) magician/wizard
g) god
h) royal breeder
i) good husband
j) hikikomori king
One strange thing about that world is that royalty seems to be monogamous - if the more magicians you have the stronger the country, and magic is originating from bloodlines, you don't want to turn into Hapsburgs - you want harems.
It's the same problem that bothered me in Mahouka.

That actually isn't true. The Inner Sanctum that Zenjirou lives in was built to house the previous kings' concubines (Normally other men older than the age of five aren't even allowed in), so harems for royalty are perfectly normal in this world.

He starts learning magic for the sake of using his bloodline's space-time power after he's lived there for a little while, but don't expect results anytime soon. It usually takes about three years for a person to be able to use magic freely after they start training and Zenjirou isn't the cheat type of character that levels up abnormally fast.
so does he get to learn any powers? would love to see what he does with them

AFAIK, he uses it to
repair his broken things. Although it works best on what is accidentally broken and not on things that suffer from wear&tear, since the power is not that strong.

I think that the right conditions reduce mana expense by a lot so it is best to do at these times. You can still try other times but it will be way harder.
They might have more worlds to summon from, with only a few being close to their plane at a time.
This might also be the way to overcome the constellation limit - instead of moving directly to Earth, they can jump to another world that is closer, and move to Earth from there.

unless the traslator have made some huge mistake (and don't really seem so from the context)... NO... they could only use the summoning magic during that specific time frame... if it was only a matter of "being economic" than the 30 year thing wouldn't have been presented as such a huge problem... neither would she have said that he only had that limited time (till the following day) for his decision...

I do not read ahead in projects that I translate, so I cannot give any information about what is going to happen in the future, but I consider my translation to be rather accurate. I didn't take classes specialized in translating for nothing. As a human being, I still make mistakes from time to time, but from my expierence of over 2000 translated manga chapters, I have yet to mistranslate a major plot development.
To begin with, there was not much take about "mana" yet. Aura only once mentioned that Zenjirou has a rather large amount of magical power, nothing more. She also seems to be able to alter the magic in the way that it summons someone with the inherited royal blood, but nothing more is explained as of now about the magic. I assume it will come when Zenjirou starts to study magic himself.
It is but a fact that the summoning magic, which is but a kind of the "Space-Time magic", can only be used with the right constellations. Zenjirou could only be summoned twice and send back once with the current constellation and the same condition will only be met again in thirty years. That much is a given.
On the other hand, it is mere speculation at this point (translated chapter, don't read ahead), if these constellation only refer to Zenjirou's world or if it is possible to summon other people from other worlds with different constellation.
To be honest, I don't want any more summonings happen, nor is there any need to. The author can add all the common cliche developements, like more love interests or rivals, with people from the other world.
To begin with, Aura only chose to do the summoning as she wanted a docile husband and all candidates from her world were no good. Now that she has obtained said docile husband, there is no more reason for her to use summoning magic. She is the only survivor of the royal family and sole practicer of the Space-Time magic, so no one else should be able to summon someone anyway.
Is even possible the contestellation thing can be used in other places and the royal palace summon chamber simply had it at that time.
Maybe a temple or a similar place of power could be used in the same way.
And from what I undestand Aura is the most direct descendant of the family and should have the purest blood, but as in every royal family there are branches, maybe someone else have potential for the space-time magic but don't know royal techniques or have low mana for the blood losing effect.

it may be that the character is actualy dreaming and in reality is in a coma after being run over by a car... (read as sarcastic)
but based on what we know...:
1) the royal family has been exterminated except for Aura
2) closest relative come from at least 4 generation gap and are part of other family with their distinctive magic
3) constellation alignament is NECESSARY for using the sammoning spell
4) location is not influent (at least is not being mentioned that they had to use it THERE... so there should be no reason for different location to affect it)
so.... if we only go by what we have in the translated part and not by what our own fantasy can come up with)... there will be no other summoning for at least 30 years...
I wouldn't be surprised if Zenjiro can use not only space-time, but some other Royal magic, too - origin myth about his ancestor did say that that prince eloped with a foreign princess.
That is true, there is even the chance of something new being unlocked from another dimension (ours) blood

yes zenjirou is really loyal to his wife, but this might turn into a harem though, cause at the latest chapter zenjirou:
might be force to marry another girls, right now the new girl haven't show up yet and he might still be able to get out of it, but it's highly unlikely. Oh yeah aura is pretty much the one who cause this to happen though so I don't know whether zenjirou is lucky or unlucky

Of course an anime or movie can never adopt the book 1:1, way too pricey as it would turn into two or more cours per volume.
Still, I felt pretty satisfied with the DxD anime. No face-palms like with other adaptions.
We're getting a bit off-topic here, though xD

2014-12-16, 01:17
I never watch the DxD anime. I got like halfway through the novel series before it got way too ridiculous.
Plus I hate when the author gives the mc like a 1000 year life span or foreshadows events really faraway then takes his time getting there. Issei is involved in life and death situations like every other month with beings that live crazy long. It's unrealistic that everyone all of a sudden starts plotting the destruction or domination of the world or whatever.
At that point I lose faith in the author; whether he or she can even maintain the series up to the point they foreshadow without creating a shitty ending. Time skips need to be utilized more.

Yeah you must be talking about the secret contract. The problem is that it's a secret so no noble know about it plus the country royalty only have two people not counting you know who so Zen have to increase the members plus no one really believe even the other kingdom's prince that zenjirou will follow it. This happen later which is one of aura's plot that went wrong,basically her dead brother screw her over. Zenjirou can still get himself out if he said she is too old she is 25 I believe but this excuse doesn't really work right now cause of what zenjirou did, he can still reject but if he do it will be very bad for his reputation and can cause harm with the noble and the girl since he basically screw up her life by following aura plan.
Ps. This novel is very interesting, basically everyone is trying to shove Zen down the harem route but he is avoiding it like the plague, spending time se**** up his wife and doing random invention instead.

Well, videos more like, but yeah.
According to the narrative (and tutorial videos Zenjirou brought) though, it's not that easy. Supposedly, to make it, you need a forge capable of reaching a certain temperature, and Carpa does not have that technology, so they'd first need to make the tool to make the tool, so to speak...
Plus, due to PLOT, they also need it to be a certain quality, so again, not easy.

2014-12-16, 13:27
I don't know I think the author did it on purpose because if zen bring a bunch of book with him it indeed could help advance aura's country but it could also cause alot of problem for them with other nation, plus they won't be much tension if when ever a problem came up, all zen have to do is pull out a book and everything is solve. Imagine him bringing back a book on how to generate electricity or create a generator or make firework, it would cause a lot of cause if other people find out. For example he is not even allow to let over people know that he prefer woman in their mid twenty like aura otherwise he could ruin a lot of people's lives.
About DxD: Wasn't that series mostly about "that kind of plot"? Tried watching it but had to stop after an adult woman (MC's mother I believe) ran out of the room shouting "Oppai!" Guess I didn't even last 5 minutes....
About bringing books:
Even if other people learn about it, the books are still written in japanese and unless you have a 20th century eductation you won't be able to understand most of the words and concepts behind them.
Kinda like translating a book from egyptian to chinese without being able to speak both.

Problem is that if he introduce a bunch of new stuff there people will be after his butt cause it would pretty obvious that he was the one who come up with all those thing plus as long as they have him they can force him to translate for them.
True, but on the other hand he IS the king of a country. It should be difficult to get their hands on him in the first place and even if they get away, hiw wife will probably do all she can to find him again...

I mean he has no power right?Well, I don't think he ever got a title like "king". You know, I'm not actually sure what his royal title is, officially...
On the power front, that's what they (Aura and Zenjirou) try for. They certainly put enough work into it, and it does pay off.
Not that they entirely succeed either, but they'll take what they can get...
actualy... he is the "king" (that world doesn't have the concept of the "royal consort"... so as the queen's husband he is a fullfledged king) he have the power of the king but he don't want to use it (actualy he have the power of the husband that have right to comand both his own and his wife's power and that is the reason why the queen went to all those effort to find a husband outside of nobility in order to not get turned into a wife subjected to her husband will) they even had to go trough the trouble of demostrate that he is willingly leaving all the royal matter to Aura (and is not forced to do so by her) because otherwise it would be normal for HIM to excercise the royal power and Aura should sit back and produce children like a good queen is supposed to (yes... this is extremily sexist... but is how it worked in the past... the king had the power... the queen was just the wife of the most important person in the country but had no personal power aside from that derivated by the respect and fear of going against someone that have some leverage on the king ^^' there are a few exception but as the name imply... they were EXCEPTION)

Yep.
There was a point in the LN where Zenjirou had to go to court as Aura's representative on a matter and The herald mistakenly announced him as royalty and Zenjirou corrected him that he was here as a "representative of the Royal Family", not as the royalty himself, and that Aura still has final word over what is decided.
Later, when Zenjirou and Aura were in private and were discussing the matter, they both spoke up at he same time:
Aura: It'd be bad if it was on purpose.
Zenjirou: It'd be bad if it wasn't on purpose.
Aura's reasoning is that the herald might be on someone payroll and was making a power play on behalf of his benefactor, trying to establish Zenjirou's position and authority as equal to or higher than Aura's.
Zenjirou, however, thought that if it wasn't on purpose, then it means that the unconscious court opinion already has established Zenjirou's position to be on par with Aura's, which is something neither of them want, and the couple would now have to redouble their efforts to overturn that.

We'll if you search up the image for vol.2 or 3 you will know whether she get pregnant or not. I did said zen spend alot of his time "with" her at night, but you are right when aura
Was pregnant, zen did try to help ease her work load for her and that how it led to the event mechatrill talk about where they call him royalty by "mistake". But this pretty much show aura that she can't really get pregnant all that much though cause it could undermine her power, she was planning to give birth like crazy but change her view on this after the first birth.

Not quite. Compared to the other chapters, the prologue is short, but with 30 pages it's longer than your usual prologues, at least by standards of what I've read.
Just finished chapter 3, kind of weird how they pretty much just skip how he puts the generator together again, seeing as that was the topic for most of chapter 2.

I enjoyed your "rant" on your announcement but I must say, even though I enjoy your translations much much much more then the machine translated editions of others, they are better than having nothing.. Other than that, I agree with everything else..
Now... I would like to rant myself.. I haven't finished the 4th chapter yet, but something tells me it's going to be like this throughout the series... Please if anyone has read further correct me, seriously it's been bugging me for weeks :
I'm feeling that the MC is one of the stupidest MCs of the LNs I've read yet.. I mean, who, WHO in their right mind would choose to take along TV series and stuff, air cons and shit when his strongest card is knowledge. Freaking knowledge! Come on, MC, rip the freaking Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_download), download all sorts of technical manuals for crafting and metallurgy, instead of thinking "I should have brought a glass window", bring the textbook of glassmaking you freaking tard! Bring the human body atlas. Bring the world history encyclopedia, the world battles reference, video tutorials on doing anything and everything...
No.. Instead he brought bloody cake recipes and complains about sugar quality. Yeah you dimwit, you should have brought the reference on making and refining sugar. He brought a hydrogenerator.. Ok I can understand that, but how about BRINGING GENERATOR MOTORS to attach to water mills that have been around for HUNDREDS OF YEARS? The people over there could certainly be taught to use copper to create wires.. And how about gun powder, dynamite and other stuff that would give the absolute edge to his own country and perhaps protect his own people? psychology books on "guiding" the masses (see what I did there?).. why, why WHYYYYYY?????
I'm really pissed off. I wanna punch him really hard.. He could have been a messiah! He could have created airplanes, speedboats, trains, cars, public health and education, the most powerful army of the world, and instead.. HE BROUGHT TV SERIES!!! FU MC!
But since I'm an M, I'll continue to read the translations.. Aura is way to good of a character to give up...
I can be wrong, if so, please, PLEASE correct me!

1. Just having books on metallurgy and stuff is not going to help when it comes to making electronics, they are the product of decades of research and testing by multitudes of people who specialise in different fields of study. There is no way one man can do that much in one lifetime.
2. There is no guarantee of access to the correct minerals such as copper.
He is on a world that may not necessarily have the same composition as Earth.
3. He only wanted to make himself more comfortable for the short term until he could acclimatise himself to the new living environment. He has no interest in power or conquest, that's why he has no problem just being Aura's Baby Daddy.

Wow, you make it sound like with a book, anyone can start inventing stuff or something. If that is the case who need school. Also aura want an husband that don't do much, not one who actively involve with politic. But I do agree he should have download so manual on glass and maybe electricity. But I will said this gen did try to teach them to make copper wire but it fail short to normal standard I believe, can't remember. Also if he bring back all those knowledge would be bad for him since people will start to notice and go after him which is opposite of what he want. Some of his video are helpful though, it does have so simple tutorial on how to make thing.

That's something I forgot to list with the other three points I made, the fact that he wants to avoid doing anything to make people pay attention to him, or jeopardize Aura's influence as a monarch.
1. Just having books on metallurgy and stuff is not going to help when it comes to making electronics, they are the product of decades of research and testing by multitudes of people who specialise in different fields of study. There is no way one man can do that much in one lifetime.
2. There is no guarantee of access to the correct minerals such as copper.
He is on a world that may not necessarily have the same composition as Earth.
3. He only wanted to make himself more comfortable for the short term until he could acclimatise himself to the new living environment. He has no interest in power or conquest, that's why he has no problem just being Aura's Baby Daddy.
1. I didn't talk about electronics.. don't care about electronics. there are so, so many other things he could do. He could teach others to do. Japanese sword making technics. Agriculture. Architecture. And as I said, planes, trains and boats. Steam if you like. But still... Just with glassmaking he could make a fortune for his kingdom..
2. Seeing as they are genetically compatible to earthlings, their world composition must be extremely close to earth. If not identical. FYI, copper is much easier to acquire and process than iron. Thus, weapons made of copper preceded those made of iron.
3. As a King, a husband and a future father, he should do everything in his power to strengthen his nation even if only for the protection of his family. He should make his nation wealthy and independent. He should have brought the knowledge and use it as he saw fit in the long run. He could make himself a useful husband and king, instead of a NEET. I'm not saying that he is gonna be one, but he should have thought to at least arm himself for the worst possible scenario (tha point is valid for the other 2 answers as well.

yes with a book you can build a plane.. a 1900's plane but you can. It only requires fabric, wood and cords. It's pretty easy actually, like building a kite. Steam trains can also be built rather quickly (a few years time at most) especially if you have the blueprints. Steam turbines are the easiest to build (the primitive type, but who cares..). And I repeat:
he should have thought to at least arm himself for the worst possible scenario

Electronics was just an example.
Steam engines are still very complex, any defect with the construction of components can result in catastrophic explosions and high temperature water vapour causing horrific burns and death to anyone caught in it.
Technology develops in stages, by the time he could spread enough education to develop the techniques necessary to develop more advanced technology, he'd have died from old age. Zenjirou is not some super genius.
Their world has magic and is thus a fantasy world, no guarantee that real world physics apply.
Making himself stand out too much would cause a factional split that Aura doesn't want, possibly resulting in civil war.

He needs to why? Common sense? Pft
Aura explicitly told him that she doesn't want a husband that meddles with national affairs. You think she would just take it when he introduces new technologies left and right?
He only has to make a child with her, otherwise he can live relaxed for the rest of his life. Seriously, his child would be born into royalty, I'm pretty sure they can defend it just fine without him. Why go all through these tedious efforts...

You do realize that the condition to be able to bang aura every night is not to stand out right? Also I did said he did bring back some tutorial video, plus building a steam engine or primitive plane is like telling people to notice him which is not what he want. Later when aura try implementing some of the thing gen suggest, some of the low level workers become aware that gen was the one who came up with them which is dangerous for aura and her authority if a noble caught on.
He knew his place before he got sent back to that world, he is a puppet king and he acknowledged it.
I do agree that he should've brought some weapons, tazer/firearm. Not sure how easy/hard it is getting one of these things in Japan. He did have some thoughts about the windows (or lack thereof), mentioning that he should've brought over some glass.
I'm not really sure what other things he downloaded (recipes for cakes, pizza, meth)

You got me there! point taken! hahahahaha you couldn't have made it clearer! Thanks for pointing it out! and let's not forget all the possible concumbine action! hahahahaha
Electronics was just an example.
Steam engines are still very complex, any defect with the construction of components can result in catastrophic explosions and high temperature water vapour causing horrific burns and death to anyone caught in it. (1)
Technology develops in stages, by the time he could spread enough education to develop the techniques necessary to develop more advanced technology, he'd have died from old age. (2) Zenjirou is not some super genius (3).
Their world has magic and is thus a fantasy world, no guarantee that real world physics apply.
Making himself stand out too much would cause a factional split that Aura doesn't want, possibly resulting in civil war.
(1) not even close.. ancient Greeks have successfully built steam engines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_of_Alexandria)..
(2) still not even close. A child is a tabula rasa or a blank book if you will and by the time it gets 22-23 years old he has learnt to build moderately sophisticated constructions from buildings to ships. If you strip worthless (for the craft) knowledge like literature and history, the same could be achieved at a younger age. When not inventing everything from scratch (like your technology development suggests) all it takes is a generation or 2 max, to achieve a development level that would take 20 generations to "invent from scratch" (knowledge-wise and on a smaller scale).
(3) you are 101% correct. I couldn't agree more! no genius here.. moving along...
The rest are valid points,thank you.

Yeap, again you are right.. It must be the giant M inside me torturing me by saying "i would have done this and that...". Childish and immature of me..
Anyways, as you guys said, I just have to accept it.. I still would have gone over to the US and get some legal firearms (for protection of course) along with IR movement detectors and alarm systems, all the other stuff I mentioned, and some medicine. But it's not gonna bother me from now on.. Thanks.

All of this discussion is outright useless.
Look at the damn title: Risou no HIMO Seikatsu.
In case you don't know, himo means sponger, a literal leecher.
I stress this again, Aura explicitly asked him to do NOTHING. Okay, he will do some stuff in the future to kill time, but he IS trying to keep it to a minimum.
If you want some novel, where the MC revolutionize some different world with all the brilliant inventions of the modern age, then you are WRONG here. Find something else.
This IS a novel about a guy lazing around in the inner palace, watching anime all day and fucking his wife at night. Period. :)
Edit: Are you aware that he had only a fucking month to prepare? I guess he doesn't have a passport yet and would need to issue one if he wanted to go to the states. Takes too much time. And wasting money on the flight? His savings aren't that big. He was after all just an ordinary salaryman.
I'm not so familiar with the gun laws in the state, but can any foreigner just walk in and purchase a bunch of weapons? I expect he would need to go through some kind of tests. In that case, the one month is probably too short again.

well himo was in katakana so I didn't make the connection initially.. and tbh the cover was what attracted me initially.. I mean come on, that's one hell of a cover!
I guess I'm getting enough dosages of badassdom from arifureta and overlord..
And let me paraphrase you, "It's a fantasy setting so the hell with common sense!" hahahahaha!

Another issue is that he lacks any ability for maintenance, so everything he brought with him will have been consumed/broken down from use within a few years.
As for Ancient Greek steam engines, they would have been simplistic and lacking in power for anything that couldn't be done by using manpower or beasts of burden.
Also even with books that explain everything, he would in effect have to develop everything from scratch. Hardly anything in the modern world is made without automated machines controlled by computer programs that ensure that the finished product is uniform and usable. I dare you to try and craft metal pipes and gears out of metal by hand and see how perfect you can get the shape without the aid of a laser cutter to craft a mold to cast metal into shape.

oh yeah, I should give you a head up about something too, I am not sure you will like this about zen or not, but about the second wife/harem part, will let just said everyone try to push him toward getting one but he is all "no too busy banging my hot wife, not banging anyone else". I don't know if this is a turn off for you or not but i figure i should tell you ahead in time, of course at the latest wn chapter it look like he will finally be "force", and yes i mean force to get another wife.

Risou 4 is out and it's beautiful~
Quite a nice & interesting chapter. We get to see the start of his daily life as NEET royalty as well as get some nice details about their world like that fascinating talk with the "Soul of Words" and its implications.
And it also had just the right amount of politics I think, not too much info since if leaves the reader enough time to digest it. Though reading 'Secretary Fabio" just made visualize him as the known long haired blond guy.
Kudos again to PROzess, translating the details to be properly conveyed must have been..."interesting" in a way. (though it ended with a Math lesson...my brain instantly wanted to ignore it)

Also, back up at the argument above:
If he has the money to go to US to buy guns, he can use that money to buy weapons in Japan. Japan is the second biggest economy in the world and a major freight node. He can buy shits. Provided he got money.
Never forget that Japan has US bases down south. US army bases = illegal military markets.
But, as Prozzess succintly put it: ordinary salaryman = little money.
And why buy guns when you can buy more anime and ln and manga~
Thx for the chapt Prozz. Can't even begin to imagine a world without numerals; how weird o.O Bravo to the author for coming up with that idea as part of the setting, quite creative.

It would be extremely hard for your average person to get a firearm in Japan within a month, whether legally or illegally.

Also, I think the thing about the MC is that he doesn't really want to release huge inventions and have people stroke his knowledge-peen. He just wants to spend his life lazing about and hang out with his wife. Why would he do something like inventing airplanes?
And yes, I know, hope for the best, prepare for the worst. But honestly, even if he had downloaded wikipedia, it'll still be hard to create things from scratch. Although there are may be rough descriptions on how to create things, detailed knowledge on how to make things like glass, steel, etc. using medieval (or before) technology has probably been lost. Judging by the fact that the ceremonial sword the MC used for the wedding was copper and that they haven't invented glass, the world's technology level probably ranges from that of the Copper Age, aka 4000 BC to the Greek Era, around 100 AD (although factors like the existence of magic or the lack of some mineral resources could result in a skewed development of science and society where some areas have grown a lot while others have stagnated). The only thing that seems fairly developed is their clothing, their hygeine and perhaps the architecture but I'm going to chalk that up to the author not wanting everybody and everything to look as ugly as shit than any knowledge stagnation. Regardless, this means that everything will have to be done from the very, very scratch with methods that have been lost through the passage of time.
See http://gizmodo.com/5794368/why-its-harder-than-you-think-to-make-a-simple-toaster for just a tiny fraction of the difficulty of even remotely approaching something like creating a steam engine.
tl;dr It's a lot harder than you would think to build something from scratch. Would also go against the essence of the story.
He wouldn't need to build things from scratch, or even do much besides introducing minimum knowledge - they already have their own smiths.
Some tools from our world (namely, contact-less thermometers to control smelting temperature) and minimum geology/chemistry know-how could've instantly brought things like steel to that world.
Although there are may be rough descriptions on how to create things, detailed knowledge on how to make things like glass, steel, etc. using medieval (or before) technology has probably been lost.
I doubt it - even a copy of "The Mysterious Island" by Jules Vernes should already bring anyone willing to invest some time up to early 20th century technology.
You're all forgetting one more important point: This world has magic.
We haven't been introduced well into the magic yet, we only know of some bloodline magic, but as Aura said about the Twin Kingdom, they have a lot of magic tools, like for warming or cooling the palace. I can imagine they create and trade some tools that are used for manufacturing.

I remember reading somewhere that he is not allowed to meet his son? Can I get some details on that matter?
something to do with they want the son to learn the native language and not japanese, the baby can't learn properly if they try raise him in two different languages. He has to wait till a certain age or something.

No, he could meet his son, he could touch him too. He can basically do everything a father do with their son except he couldn't talk in front of his son, that's all. It have something to do with what was touch up on in the newly release awesome chapter 4. Thank for the chapter by the way prozess.

He couldn't talk in front of him? Is it because he speaks Japanese or is it just so that he doesn't put any ideas in his head?

well of course he is a foreigner that speaks japanese, so pretty much waiting until the child is old enough and then the automatic convenient magic translator. lol
since you can just go back to vol1 ch4 for how it works.

Have not read chapter 4 yet so I'm pretty much excited.
Seems like if he talk in japanese and the son listen to him it could impair his learning of the country language and the power of the "soul of words", therefore until the child haven't reached a certain age he can't talk.

Well, technically, he can talk to his son. Only caveat is that he has to do it in the native language to of Carpa, and everything he says needs to be pre-vetted by Aura for pronunciation.
Thus, we have him shouting one phrase over and over in front of his son like an idiot. That phrase being the only one that he can pronounce accurately enough for Aura to allow...

Thank you PROzess for the new chapter!
Aah with the winter and such at where i live i wanna go to carpa kingdom; going back to mc, looks like he only bring one piece of ero clothing and it's a good thing that he is not into cosplay lol
oh yeah, I should give you a head up about something too, I am not sure you will like this about zen or not, but about the second wife/harem part, will let just said everyone try to push him toward getting one but he is all "no too busy banging my hot wife, not banging anyone else". I don't know if this is a turn off for you or not but i figure i should tell you ahead in time, of course at the latest wn chapter it look like he will finally be "force", and yes i mean force to get another wife.Why is he being forced to get another wife?
^ it's politic
moreover, they wanted his gen(power in his blood) for the female's family and weakening royality power . . .
if me, right

if me, rightSorry I phrased my question wrong, what I mean't to say was how can they force him isn't he the 'King' can't he just say "no " or are they holding something over him were he has no choice but to obey?
And who exactly are the ones forcing him to do so?

Well he doesn't really have any power, and he is force to take a second wife because one of aura plan goes wrong and basically he ruin this girl chance to get married, she is 25 I believe so he is sort of being push into a corner to take responsibility, he can sort of reject but it will be really hard and it will cause some trouble with the girl's family, well unless something happen to the girl, chances are high zen will have to marry her. Either her or someone else, it's his role he can't escape it cause he have to repopulate the royal family and like aura said in chapter 4 there is a limit to how many time she can give birth since she is the queen. The latest wn have her coming to the capital so the next chapter should be about zen meeting her for the first time then we will know what he will do.

Answer is yes to first question, and it doesn't cause a big problem so far, only secret agreement and the fact that it have to be kept a secret from other noble or they will really force him to get a harem no matter what he said.
Is the ruined plan girl the albino we seen on the cover some weeks ago?
If yes it would be like water and fire in contrast with Aura.

No, it's not but zen is weak/lower his guard against that girl I believe, he also screw up once and give her some idea from his world.
1. Thx for the translations
2. From most LN I have learned that if you want a docile MC go for Japanese. I mean siriusly, either they have ambition but are sexually inept or they are sexually active but have no ambition....
3. To that copying Wikipedia part, although he might not be able to do anything significant in his lifetime, he could still secure knowledge for his descendants. So what if that country has magical tools, our tech trumps that. Some might say that they have magic, but don't forget, it's thanks to our lack of magic that we developed the way we have. Here's a short story I found on pastebin concerning discovering something like anti-gravity before gunpowder and how that great invention crippled alien scientific research. http://pastebin.com/aJQfubrK
4. This novel further increased my attraction to redheads.

It seems the Japanese really like red heads:
Claire Rouge/Elstein, Rias Gremory, Stella Vermillion, Yatorishino (Tenkyou no Alderamin), Mio from Shinmai Maou no Testament.
That's just the primary heroines, there's also ones like Rebecca Randall as well.

Woa, a master in Japanese is 3 years, that long? Is it particular to the language (Japanese), your subfield (translator), or that's just how Masters in language are in general?

No, usually it's just 2 years, and the bachelor is usually just 3 years too, but there aren't enough Japanese classes to fill all credits, so I have to pick some random crap to get the remaining credits, which is a pain. In short, I'm running extra laps.

Sigh, these new waves of leechers are really obnoxious and so entitled. Maybe because manga scanlations and anime fansubs are so easy to get these days, while the LN translations remains scarce (understandable, LN is much longer and sometimes are harder to translate than manga and anime), that the leechers instantly demanded the same thing from LN translators?
I remember there was a time when manga scanlation groups have an understanding with each other that for every leecher asking for release date, they'll postpone their scanlation release by one day/week, even though they already finished doing the translation.
People, the translators are doing this for fun; constantly nagging him/her for more releases would make the translations feel like work instead of fun, and this would piss the translators off! Stop being such whiners, would you?

Guys,
Has anyone here heard about the book series called 1632(by Eric Flint)?
It's about a town in the USA that gets transported to the 17th century in Germany, in the middle of the 30 years war. It shows how they had to adapt in a world at war and how their technology made the difference. It has some 11+ books released and some 50+ novels.
I think it is a good way to spend time while we patiently wait for PROzess to release new chapters. Another good side is that those books shows how difficulty would be for Zen to create anything from just books and videos.
PS: Try to find the part where they need to replace their Thermoeletric turbine with some Steam turbines. They had a hell of a time and even so, they needed several tries to get it right.

Just to make a quickly addendo:
In the initial novel books, they had a roundtable explaining how they could do something(i.e Automatic Guns), how difficult it was and their acceptable alternatives. This roundtables covered several things, like medication, photografy, computers and other appliances.

The low cost, easily applicable stuffs that I can think of.
1. Rotation Crops. It's pretty much logical chain of thought, and almost anyone know it, so it's no stretch to think he know about it. But for him to think of it to say it out, it require him going out to the fields. Possibly later volumes...
2. Windmill. it depend on whether they have windmills or not, but if they dont, he certainly can think of it. Primitive woodenwheel? The required tech can be derived from waterwheel, which they may have already considering they have at least one river.
3. File Keeping System. As a member of working adult group, he certainly had something to do with file keeping system, from actual paper files to electronic library. It will be a boon to the bureaucratic staff of kingdom. even with the work of adapting it for kingdom's alphabet.
...............
5. Abacus. This is a cheap device easily come to a Japanese mind. Because they have televised contest of using this device for school children, you see. Even in Vietnam we dont have that kind of widespread usage we still know of abacus. With Japanese, I would think it would jump to their mind. Abacus can be a very cheap simile to primitive computer, and a humongous boon to the palace's bureaucratic staff if used in combination with the numerals.

I think you can also include the following:
1 - Double entry book-keeping - It could lower the possibility of corruption in government's tax books and provide more security with handling money.
2 - Water Mills - Historically speaking, water mills are easier to implement and the power/effort ratio is higher. But I don't know how many rivers they have, with the necessary conditions.
3 - Basic sanitary notions - Washing hands, boiling water before drinking, kill lice and mice, etc...
4 - Since he comes from a pretty rural town, it may be possible that he is aware of the use of fertilizers, like black moss and night soil.

1. Double entry book keeping. It depend on his works and his inclination. If he doesnt like accounting, and his work doesnt involve that aspect, he might forget what he learned in college.
Accounting is dry stuff so who know?
2. Watermill. I actually think this one might already be known to locals already. It's an easily inventable stuffs that you can find everywhere on Earth, so there's no reason to think it's not inventable on that world as well. Windmill is different.
3. Basic sanitary. This depend on magic application on their everyday life. Also, didnt the first chapter contain something to that aspect already~. A tropical climate create a heavy pressure on basic hygiene.
4. Night soil is same as watermill, inventable. It's the logical application of dealing with human/cattle droppings, after all.

They are turning out to be one of my favorite couples of all time. This is one of the very few series that I hope would never have a harem.
Definitely an entertaining chapter, those two can really be adorable together, get a roo...oh right.
The chapter had a good & balanced amount of info from the politics to how that world's magic works. The maids remarks & observations were amusing & informative as well.
Overall, quite a nice chapter, thanks once again to PROzess. Also learned a new english word as well, so that's what "malapropos" means.
Don't know if you guys already notice this...

Yeah, she is really crafty. And it would not be strange if she decides to use Zen as her Tax office, since he can do the work of several people in less time.

you can just read the jp synopsis
and from it... yes she is a princess from another kingdom.
her name, the kingdom, why she appeared, just go read the synopsis...

Also, please read my request on the release post.
I would be grateful if there are any volunteers.
Thank you for the new chapter PROzess, much appreciated. Anyway, please correct me if I'm wrong but you would prefer that someone scanned the remaining volumes and give you the files instead of sending the books directly to you so that you could work on the translation by having the physical volume in your hand?
