"Why is my heart thumping ? Is this... the satisfaction of a job worth doing ?"

Okay, that's a new one.

Really looking forward to how this develops. Lapis' past, her relationship with Natori, and the direction Diana will take are all intriguing to me.

Natori getting hit with the good old ludonarrative dissonance. Next you'll tell me the evil dragon king doesn't actually fight in a match 3 game.

oh boy you are going to cause SO much trauma for these people by being a squishy hooman.
i wonder how the heroine will react now that shes harmed a harmless bean.

Interesting, Diana chan is strong, smart and an agressive fighter.
Her fighting style is different than Lapis so I can see how she could overpower an over confident Lapis.
Now that Natori has been hurt, that single event already changed the course of both Diana and Lapis's future.
This story looks promising even though we have the same cliche of noble vs. commoners.

This chapter gives me so much more faith in the manga. I had not expected Lapis to be a straight-up awful person who was manipulating Diana from the start (complete with a literal chess board lmao). Natori is still not a particularly compelling protagonist but Lapis plus the amazing art have rocketed this manga to the top tier of my ongoing manga list already.

First isekai I see the protag acknowledges the real fantasy world doesn't have a gacha gameplay.

Yay chapter 2 finally! Also i can't tell if Lapis is actively trying to seduce the MC or not

Traumatizing both the protag and the villainess by almost dying in the tutorial? That's one way to change the course of events. Kudos to OL for such a bold move.

I mean at least she knows that commoners act "barbaric" because they're uneducated. I think she's smart enough that if someone she respected pointed out it was due to lack of access to said education and suggested a viable implementation of public schooling she wouldn't be too against it - it'd make for competent dogs, at the very least...?

thanks for the translation. I currently like their silly little dynamic going on, though I feel very weird about Diana's reaction at the end, maybe something potentially bad.

Also since I was bored the chess opening you see in pg 59 is the ruy lopez morphy defense columbus variation.

tbh, every office worker should have the chance to be summoned by a villainess

this is fun enough, even if it's an entry in a well-established genre, but damned if its action scenes aren't hard to follow

It's probably fine between people and beasts with magic, and probably fine if the completely unprotected office lady doesn't leave her protection circle

It's like tanks shooting at each other with light machine gun tracers but some idiot running between the tanks

Lapis Tenembrae one seems half-and-half. The villainess, Claire, in "My choice is the villainess" is about 75% good and 25% bad, and her badness is her ignorance and how she was raised. In "Doom Flags" Katarina Claes is basically just spoiled and her only real evil is that when things fall apart around her she loses control and attacks the heroine with a knife - either she's stopped by Geordo killing her with his sword or she manages to wound the heroine, but then Keith kills her with magic. Her relationship with Keith is bad, too, but she's right about her fiance, Geordo. And if she were a generic genuinely evil villainess, then Katarina would fight the heroine for Alan or Nicol, and she doesn't even bother them. So all in all, Lapis is at least evil-er than most of the popular villainesses.

omg didn't expect this is made by neko tarou, is this an original manga? I thought this came from a novel base from the title itself. damn I'm liking the story so far.

Satisfaction of a job worth doing, sure... :D

And sure is fun reading all the comments of the first chapter now that the villainess has been revealed as a proper villainess indeed.
