Scholek said: I was a little taken aback by Zenjiro's complete lack of ambition. I know he's a super sponger, but man is he ever fucking lazy. LOL He said it himself, "Spend the rest of his life sloppily in the inner palace".
His choice of items was a little weird too. It all fits his sponger character just fine, but I wouldn't say that Zenjiro's choice of items was "great". Since his ambition meter is zero, he wouldn't have done the same as me. However, one thing just screams at me in the face every time I think about it. Why didn't he bring a few textbooks from Earth? He could have helped the Carpa Kingdom advance their technology like 300 fucking years simply by translating a few fucking books or teaching some guys a little Japanese. Yes, the reason he didn't do so is because he's a sponger who seriously doesn't give a fuck about the kingdom he "could" rule. As a king he is closer to the type of leader to get hung from being useless to his people like the French Revolution.
Other than that I look forward to reading more about the adventures of Zenjiro the prince consort as he bones Aura and lives his life sloppily. He was promised by Aura that he could do f all for the rest of his life after all so I don't see any real problems. It's fun to read, especially the chapter with the gamer maids. They felt like failures as woman because they were not sexually harassed by their master, but definitely gave me the most "feels" and laughter from the entire story thusfar. Those busty young maids got pwned by Zenjiro the gaming sponger.
Just a few books could have started a technology revolution and empowered his entire national with just a tiny bit of effort... but noooo Zenjiro needed a mini fridge with his fancy shaved ice and snow cones. I'll never get over it. Metal working, Glass manufacturing, firearms, engineering books, agriculture, medicine, mathematics, biology, chemistry, electrical engineering, ... unbelievable value and knowledge he could have brought to their world for miniscule cost in comparison.
In addition he could have brought small things like plant seeds for new crops and produce for his kingdom. There are so many bargaining chips for foreign affairs when you have access to another world. It's completely cheating to get summoned and have the option to return to your world, get what you need, and then return... but Zenjiro don't care, Zenjiro ain't playing no game, Zenjiro sits on couch until Aura comes for bedtime.
I still can't believe that he continued to work for so many days after returning to Earth? I thought he was supposed to be a sloppy, lazyass, sponger? He diligently let me down there.
With a few gold coins on loan from Aura he could have brought back rare items from Earth and sold them in the other world for BILLIONS. Apparently Silver is worth 1/5 the price of Gold in the other world. He could have taken a large amount of gold exchanged it for EXTREMELY pure silver on Earth, then returned and exchanged the new silver for five times more gold than he started with... There are countless cheats that I'll forgive him for not thinking of since he must have been quite flustered and confused by the summoning, but he really doesn't give a shit about anything except for his woman's vagina and
He's just a penis for Aura. That almost sums up his entire worth to the kingdom.
Completely agree with you, i cant believe he used to live in village and he cant live without electricity and modern tech, he's completely depend on them. This whole volume MC only saying electrical-applicant electrical-applicant....fucking idiot you can build better stuff there with earth modern knowledge and magic. Knowledge is always best weapon in any situation only idiot will ignore this high-tech knowledge |
