Disliker of war, lazy, admirer of women.

No one predicted that that kind of Ikta would later on become a soldier referred to even as a great commander…

Ikta, the one who survived a world embroiled in war with his superior genius. The curtain is raised at last on a splendid fantasy military history illustrating his stormy, dramatic life!

i have been reading this since the prologue was translated and i love it. i really hope that it gets more attention and people help with the translations so it will go faster. i am normally patient, but the three or four months that i will have to wait to get the next chapter is going to kill me.

This is a fairly interesting series. I love Ikta's character the most. The magic system is a little strange, not as imaginative as I think it could've been. Then again, it's only been translated to the 2nd chapter of the novel.

Yeah, if only some group would translate the manga. But I haven't seen anyone interested in it yet, sadly.

Anyway, the "magic" system, if you could call it that, is really weird in this series ^^ ...and cute at the same time

No, the translation did not stop. It's still on going, the translator just posted chapter 2 this week. He even said he's already working on chapter 3.

Setsuna is already translating 3 different LNs and has one more on hold, that he plans on translating after he's up to date with the current volumes of the ones he's already working with. So I really doubt that he'll pick this up.

Moe... the only one that fits that description would be the princess. But I guess you're talking about a character that hasn't appeared in the first 2 chapters of the first volume yet, right? Killing the princess would be...

I almost wanted to say that's too bad. Hopefully, her character becomes a little more redeemable; there's definitely potential there. While I'm somewhat sympathetic to her character, the way she treated Ikta kinda ticked me off. Actually, aside from Ikta and Haro my mind is looking at the other characters with a negative light. That light will probably disappear once their characters are expanded and developed, but for now, I'm just feeling "ugh..." towards this feudalistic society - the idiot king and his advisers and the nobles that follow them. I almost want Ikta to start a revolution - almost, because I know next to nothing about the other country aside from they're winning.

I'm sure other people may feel differently.

I have to agree that I'm enjoying this more than I thought I would be. I'll have to read ahead on my own if it doesn't look too bad.
