  Spoiler:  
But Rozemyne had laynoble mana capacity initially. This fact suggests you aren’t born with all your element affinities but can develop more of them but only if you increase your mana capacity significantly like Rozemyne has.
I'm not sure that's necessarily true. If mana production and ultimate capacity can differ with genetics then I don't see why maximum possible affinities couldn't either, and by itself it doesn't suggest one's collection of affinities increase in number over a lifetime, but maybe I'm forgetting something. Was she measured to have fewer previously?

So there's only one image from the Grun attack but unfortunately it doesn't show what the Grun looks like. The Manga I'm sure will show what the Grun looks like. It is described though.

4.4 Spoilers
  Spoiler:  
This first image is of Judithe being upset that she was thrown into Lessy during the Grun attack. Damiel threw her in so she could protect Rozemyne since she's so good at throwing attacks. Judithe thought she had been tossed in because Damiel thought she was useless as a Knight. So she was quite upset and actually didn't perform her duties as a Knight as a result, luckily she didn't need to do so. It is required that one Knight must be with Rozemyne at all times in her High Beast if others are traveling with her, which is often the case. Judithe wass chosen for this task by Damiel and was the only Knight in Lessy when they fled. Bonifatius was there too and defeated the Grun with other Knights. He did order that all Apprentice Knights were to retreat, which would include Judithe so I could see her misunderstanding rooting from that. But the image is great, see it below. Angelica did state simply that she was expected to be the lone guardian Knight but not why.

It was quite informative, true. Interesting how PoVs of the same events are so different.

It was a good wrap up for the book.

lol

The new part released last week suggests a battle or something bad might occur soon.

A new character introduced as well. If you don’t know who is who. Matthias is the smaller one in the image.

The big book that requires to enlist help just to open it is a bit funny. Well for the MC anyways

Hartmut probably prepared that bone in advance. When did he go from cultist to flawless manager of the problem idol?

Part 2, Vol 3; -Punishment for the Knight's Order and my Future. [Page 99 Print edition]
  Spoiler:  
- .. the High Priest shut his eyes tightly, knitting his eyebrows.
It was clear by the look on his face that he was enduring a Myne-induced headache, which made me feel just a little guilty.

GREAT! this second chapter was so good too.  <3 <3

  Spoiler:  
Incidentally, I sent a letter asking Ferdinand what "Please dye me in your colors" meant.
His reply was three pages long and tightly bound in packaging that market it as confidential.
I see... so it's a rather direct way of inviting someone to your bedroom for you-know-what. lewd indeed. :dance: :smoke:
Hirschur told me to use it for my actual proposal, but I don't think I will.[spoiler]
