Please spoil me. I want to know, why did Lucius betray and kill Rio’s parents? Was it for money, revenge or just to piss someone off like Rio?
He was like an uncle to Rio and supported him & his mother. Until he kicked Rio, drugged him and stabs Karasuki Ayame. And Rio mentioned in season 2 that Lucius killed his father as well.
This is truly a suicide mission, but it proves Christina is a genius. Who else could come up with such a perfect plan, even sacrificing herself? She even forces herself to put her feelings aside to fulfill her duty.
To be honest, when I first saw this illustration, I thought Hiroaki did something unexpected that made Roana blush, and I think that would be cute. But here we go again another girl fall in love with the perfect guy Rio.
What makes this moment so annoying is the conversation
Rio & Ex Bully Girl 1
Ex Bully Girl 1: “Do you remember me… from our time at the academy?”
Rio: “Of course. Even when we greeted each other at the Galarc party, I recognized you immediately. Once I learned your name, I knew you were Ex Bully Girl 1.”
Ex Bully Girl 1: “S-So you recognized me at the party…? But I… I was so embarrassed. I didn't realize it was you…”. ( Blushing)
Ex Bully Girl 2 & Rio
Ex Bully Girl 2: “……”
She stares at Rio as if saying, “I was there too.”
Rio: “I also greeted Ex Bully Girl 2 that time, didn't I?”
Ex Bully Girl 2: “Yes! So you remembered me too!” ( Blushing)
Roanna spills her tea
Roanna: “—!”
The teacup rattles and some tea spills.
Flora: “R-Roanna?!”
Roanna: “I-I'm terribly sorry! How could I be so careless…”
Rio: “Are you burned? Does it feel hot or painful?”
Roanna: “I-I'm fine. I only spilled a little into the small dish…”
Rio: “May I see your hand?”
Roanna: “...Huh?”
Roanna: “Ah… y-yes…”
She places her hand on Rio's hand.
Roanna's internal reaction
Roanna: “Why is my face so hot?!”
Roanna: “His face is way too perfect! His eyelashes are so long! What is happening to me?!”
Roanna: “Is this what it feels like to fall in love?!”
Roanna: “Is he naturally this seductive?!”
Roanna: “This is dangerous…!”
the scene totally gives Rio a “womanizer” impression
I feel like the author wants to make this a comedy relief from politic tension in this vol . But to be honest this scene actually annoying for me. I hate the girl talk in this story because
The girl talk = Rio glazing moment
That why the story progress so slow meanwhile Tensura with more complex world building and more character already end with 23 vol in 10 years .
Instead of this scene, I want to see the character's expression about Latifa
Conversation about what happened with Latifa and Rio and their real identities. First, giving Latifa some comfort and worrying about her . There might also be talk about what to call them now that more people, if not just inside the mansion, know their real names. Maybe they'll even talk a bit about what Rio was like at the academy. And since the secret of Latifa's true race is also out, she might decide to expose it in front of everyone, maybe even, now that they're with people they trust, Sara, Orphia and Alma might decide to do the same.
Takahisa is without a doubt a piece of shit , but I also dislike Julia because she thinks that Miharu is at fault. Moreover, she thinks that Miharu cannot properly recognize a person. What do you think about Julia? Will Julia badly react with Miharu after she meets Miharu?
1.Lucius sword
To be honest giving him that sword was dumb. I know he doesn't want to keep anything that reminds him of Lucius but the sword is dangerous with the ability of teleportation.can he just burrow deep into a mountain and bury it. Something that dangerous and bro just gives it to an enemy ...or hand this sword over to a trusted ally, such as King François or the Spirit People. Because of this sword Alma get stabbed.
2.Not allow Gouki to follow him
If Gouki's group had never traveled to the Strahl region, Volume 19 would have ended in an absolute massacre and a total victory for the Heavenly Lion.Alma would die, Celia and Miharu become hostage.Fortunately, in Volume 17, the harem members convinced Rio to allow Gouki and the others follow him to Strahl.
When thinking back save Christina also become a big mistake,
Did you guys see this profile for rio, aishia, Erika and renji?
https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Rio

first big respect to the people who did it and i don't mean any offence but i'm just saying my opinion. I don't know if there are people who powerscale here but if you are interested you can read this as it will be a long message. the real issue i see her is rio's base form which is highly misunderstimated, it says at least large building lvl superior to renji but in renji's profile he is city lvl without holding back(it was stated he can destroy the city) and rio is far superior to him so rio at least here should be city lvl going by this logic. put that aside and let's go back to volume 18 the fight against the beast of the land, first the beast was stated to be the size of a mountain(in vol 20), the beast fired a beam of destructive energy that was stated like this "energy that could disintegrate every material it touched, leaving not even dust behind"
and then rio fired a beam with the same destructive energy on par with the beast to the point that they were "evenly matched", after that when aishia fired her beam which was also on par with them, rio's side instantly won and the beast's beam was repelled and aishia's beam enveloped and swallowed the entire body of the beast. when i searched for the statement of "disintegrate every material it touched, leaving not even dust behind" it was either atomization or sub-atomic destruction and when i looked for the tier of atmoziation and subatomic destruction of a mountain it was like this:
atmoization -> island lvl
subatomic destruction -> multi-continental lvl
and yes it's that large as the energy required to atmozie 1cm^3 is 30852.2 J/cc and for subatomic it's 5.4 x 10^13 J/cc so rio, aishia and the beast all should be island lvl at minimum and multi-contenintal lvl at best. not to mention how many times rio damaged the beast and was able to behead it twice completely going past its durability. also if you count the beast as part of Erika's power then large building lvl is also wrong for her and plus to what i said before the beast roar alone was able to shake the entire nation, that will be small country lvl tier feat for the beast roar alone as i searched about that.
Now for rio's speed, i agree with reaction & combat speed being massively hypersonic+ given him reacting to lightning-fast attacks against Alfred but that was in volume 5 but what about his feats in vol 14? Lucius has both the ability to teleport himself and the ability to wrap his sword and manifest it directly at the target he is looking at, rio was reacting and parrying both relentlessly from every direction and 360 degree around him all while protecting the two princesses, isn't that a big deal? and even against the beast, its speed was stated to be on par with rio and rio was having real trouble against it but at maximum speed he was able to outspeed the beast, so i'm sure MH+ is quite bad here he should be in the range of relativistic (reaction & combat speed)
Add to that they gave his assimilation form also MH+, but possessed Erika outspeed base rio and aishia so badly and when he got assimilation he completely blitzed her with ease + in volume 25 he was also blitzing the golems that was on par with possessed Erika and when he gone over 100% assimilation rio started to perceive everything around him in slow motion and his travelling speed alone became MH+ since he moved like a "lightning bolt" so at this point his reaction & combat speed should be vastly superior than before.
Also his stamina isn't limitless, just because you have infinte mana and odo doesn't mean youe stamina is limitless, rio was feeling tired against the beast and possessed erika, he is still human he can suffer from mental burnout and his body being destroyed since he is still bound by human biology, sure his control of mana is near perfect and his stamina is very high compared to the others but he is still human at the end he has limits but he do get the limitless stamina only in assmilation which he isn't bound by human biology and limited output.
and this is the end, sorry for it being a long message but i made sure to mention what i see wrong, and i will be glad if you shared your opinion here.
