>>291663912Eating Marcille
>>291663956He wants to get inside Marci
>>291664057She's super cute with that messy hairThe lion must have gotten a taste already right?
>>291663983Good for Misyl that they didn't get out of the bird through her butt. Bad for us though.
>>291664173>A thousand years at least!
>>291664143>>291664173She looks like an insane person with her hair like that, but also cute
>>291664037>Less than a day on the job and she's already making chimeras.
>>291664249you can't convince me he's not an enemy stand
>>291663983>Bowel peristalsis>>291664218>AtavisticHe’s so smart bros
>>291664300I can't believe Laios is the desginated dungeon husband.
>>291664300>dude, she cannot DM for shit. please help us
>>291664249The lion is infinitely sexual
>>291664341>and the cat is here too
>>291664379Man this shit is going to make twitter people pop a vein
>>291664341> and Izutsumi's uhhhh... Izutsumi
>>291664379I couldn't say no to those puppy eyes
>>291664379God she's cute!
end of chapter
>>291664503>resembles her fatherThis poor fucking man
>>291664517
>>291664300I mean this is obviously catastrophic, even if you don't know what the lion is really aftermaking the whole world like this?
dungeon... bad?
>>291664517Le murderous monster dungeon... is le evil!?
>>291664517>From my POV, it's the canaries who are evil!
>>291664420>murderhobo's remorse
>>291663912what a beautiful Italian elf
>>291664037>cockatiels damn she replaced Pipi
>>291664440I do like the whole "everything is a clunky food analogy" bit that persists in this series
Does anyone have that one short comic where Marcille summon the demon after everyone die of old age?
>>291664572Needs a Laios edit.
>>291663902ctrl+f meshi>no resultsI won't say fuck you, but I'm not happy about it
>>291664300I love how Kui continues the theme of the demon coming in from outside the panels, but this time in a funny and benign way
>>291664057She does own the place>>291664249Extremely necessary >>291664198Cute blush of frustration>>291664402Look at Senshi sitting all politely, Chilchuck and Izutsumi just leaning on stuff>>291664517What? No!Thanks OP
>>291664316Kui plays all the indie chart toppers huh
>>291664341>your curiosity>senshi's inquisitiveness I'm curious what the original Japanese is because this seems like a clumsy translation, those are synonyms
>>291663935Probably obvious but I think the lion is really trying his best to kill the party to isolate Marcille. Sending out fucking mushrooms to look for them and now this, there's no way it's a coincidence.
>>291663912Tied with Pattadol for best wife material.
>>291665021Someone posted one of her translated blogs where she talks about games she plays, a lot of cult stuff, she's the japanese version of a fa/tg/uy. Pic very related.
>>291663956i don't know, this whole thing feels like a metaphor for being inside marcille's asshole
>>291664671Only the weak will die
>>291664037>>291664904Yep, female mangaka. Girls love cockatiels (I don't, they're assholes, my wife's cockatiel still hates my guts. You lost, buddy, deal with it).
>>291664455Where’s the bottom left Marcille face in panel 1 from? I find it hard to believe that Laios ever saw her make that face
>>291664173>>291664198>>291664218I want to live 1000 years with Marcille.
>>291664341>I like Izutsumi's... I like Izutsumi.
>>291664379She's going to make me cry with those eyes.
>>291664420>food analogy
>>291665051I'm an ESL but no not really. Curiosity is wanting to learn new things. Inquisitiveness is more about delving into the details. The former is more about naivety and broad knowledge gain than the other. As I understand it.
>>291664455If Laios wasn't Laios, this would be a confession.
>>291664503>tfw you meet your father-in-law and he looks just like youa story as old as time.i can see why people think there's actual shipping here. no reason to add that bit so randomly
>>291664517Chilchuck and Izutsumi being on the same wavelength is always great.
>>291664926>tallman explaining humility and consent>"so imagine a burger"
>>291665289No they are synonyms, if you're inquisitive you're curious, if you're curious you're inquisitive. One's just usually used more in a mature context, like a little boy is curious but a man is inquisitive.
>>291664503This is just Izutsumi being racist against white guys
>>291665099>pic relatedwow, she really is on the spectrum. is she into factorio and dwarf fortress by any chance, or more like stardew valley and minecraft? because that's where i draw the line. even i'm not autistic enough for those, i mostly stick to terraria and such
>>291664440I think "curing everyone of aging is bad somehow" is just not the best reason against letting this entity of unknown origin and motivations envelop the planet, Laios
>>291665422>One's just usually used more in a mature context, like a little boy is curious but a man is inquisitive.Yeah, that's because of the differences I described. They're not synonyms if they hold a different meaning and in this context the difference in Senshi and Laios in learning new things was clearly meant to be described by the different meanings.
>>291665438Well, she did make a comic about harassing Tarn Adams, so I'll count her in that group.
>>291665446It's not "curing everyone of aging", it's forcing everyone to have lives twice as long as the longest-lived race, a race which is currently suffering from population collapse (leading to short-lived races to take over more and more territory). Elves still age, just not as fast. So far we've only seen elves at the right age to go do heavy combat duty, but they have oldsters hanging around back home.
>>291665021Laios would be so disappointed with the underground. You can't eat any of the monsters because they just turn to dust after you kill them...
>>291665509They are factually synonyms, on top of being ESL you can't look up the definitions of English words? Saying "I'm famished" sounds more severe than "I'm hungry", that does not mean they aren't synonyms. Whether you are starving or peckish, you are hungry. Whether you are inquisitive or just mildly interested, you are curious. Also Laius gets way more into details than Senshi, especially when it comes to monsters. He solved the hippogriff mystery, Senshi couldn't solve Chilchuck's age.
>>291664503Marcille is really living up to those half-elf stereotypes.
>>291665509Synonyms don't have to mean exactly the same thing, there's quite a lot of wiggle room.
>>291665308What a dick move to do after Kabru built up the courage the confess to him. Be considerate of others Laios!
forcing everyone to have a nearly unaging body, oh no! imagine doing something so evil.
>>291664517Half an hour as dungeon lord and it already went to her head
>>291664081my tsukkomi can't be this cute
>>291664198You're fucking fifty, and equivalent to a 14-20 yo human accounting for fucky wucky half-elf growth patterns.Just fucking cut your own lifespan by 60% and wish for fertility ya fucking daft cunt.
>>291664249Nice perspectives (artistically speaking).Nice legs (full homo speaking).
>>291664455>I don't want you looking like SisselI dunno man I think she looks pretty cute like that >>291664143
>>291664276A JOJOLIONAS A LIVE AND FUCKING BREATHE
>>291664379>>291664402>pls affirm my foid desires>noProps to Laius. That makes him the goat.
>>291664517The demon is evil? What the fuck?
>>291664143Fucking dipshit elfThis is one of the dumbest sequences in the manga and that's saying a lot
>>291664503>daddy issuesOF FUCKING COURSEDADDY DIED TO YOUNGNEW DADDY WON'T PLAY ALONGWAAH LION TASUKETE
>>291665976Anon doing that would mean expanding the entire dungeon to encompass the whole world Not even accounting for the Lion, one dungeon is dangerous enough for seasoned veteran adventures like Laios's party or the Canaries. Marcille can't possibly momitor the entire world, she was struggling with the wall eyes Thistle set up on just one island and ultimately just chose to shut them off and said fuck the consequences of my changes. It would be a total, unmitigated disaster, billions of civilians would die to walking mushrooms
>>291666201Imagine developing a dad-lust over a man 30 years your junior. This is one mixed up elf.
>>291666135>Would you make me a sandwich, Senshi?
>>291663983>>291664011>Vore>Defecation
>>291665446the point is that she's trying to force it on everyone instead of giving them a choice
I'm gonna miss these threads when the dump is over
>>291666299Just wait another 5 years and they'll happen again. Then again I doubt 4chan'll last that long.
>>291666213Bro some species appreciate cooming hard at 13yo look at Chill heck look at out local /ss/ enthusiasts Marcille would have them be eunuchs until they're 40 fuck that shite mate fuck off
>>291666322mate I don't know if *I* am gonna last that long
>>291666322it won't with that attitude. By then I assume 90% of threads will be dailies and the other 10% the yuri schizo
>>291666213now that's a good reason>>291666272insert an appropriate sneer, I feel unimaginative right now
>>291666358"The yuri schizo"? Is one guy making all the yuri generals?
>>291664173Elfs already get kinda listless at 200, I feel like this isn't a good idea to make everyone so unending in that way Marcille...How about you bring everyone to like 200 instead, much more of an easier sell, elfs and dwarfs don't use their age well anyway.
>>291664276He just can't himself. He HAS to break the panel boundaries. Even if it's just a finger, he gotta establish he don't play by common manga rules, he's otherworldly.
This chapter made me notice that the art has gotten really clean. It could be that there's also less backgrounds during important conversations in this chapter, but there's also something with the shading that makes the characters look more like a big weekly serialization. Not sure I like it
>>291664379The second part of the anime is going to kill the /u/tards in Dungeon Meshi threads.
>>291666491I can only hope cooler heads prevail and we get more elf sandwich art.
I like how in Ryoko Kui's worldbuilding in Dungeon Meshi, normal humans (tallmen), elves, halffoots, ogres, gnomes, and dwarves are all considered human despite some biological differences like lifespan, height, magical abilities, and birth rates. I find it ridiculous that elves and gnomes, just to name a few examples, in both Western and Eastern works of fiction are not considered human just because they use magic, live longer, and have pointy ears.
>>291665740plus they're all weak as shit and job to children, let alone his 26 year old, 6ft 2in horse-tackling ass.
>>291663983I like how polite Laios is in the second panel. The group really gets along so well that he's actually pretty confused.
>>291666358With generous overlap of course
marcille in brat mode and needs to be punished
>>291666517I guess it goes back to Tolkien. His elves are spiritually completely different being than humans.
>>291664455I like this one
>>291665073The lion isn't trying to kill anybody
>>291665169I think it might be one of the earlier chapters
>>291663912oh god those braids with ribbons are adorable as fuck
>>291664455Cute, but man that 7Cha (-2) with zero diplomacy/seduction skills is fucking murdering you bro.
>>291663912Why is Marcille offering me a meal made from PS5 games?
>>291666696If you can't handle him at his worst you don't deserve his 18/14/16/20/10/7
>>291664341And Itzutzumi..... yeah
>>291666720More like 17/11/16/16/12/7He's a right proper unit and his ability in combined sorcery/healing puts him up there, but it's mainly because he's invested his human starter bonus feat and all level up feats into skill focus lore/knowledge dungeoneering/monsters
>>291666782Dude had strength high enough to down a dragon in a single undefended crit. He's also got the raw dex to manage some complex maneuvers.
>>291666814Nat 20 lucky coincidences. Looking at his average performance, my spread is closer. Unless you're accounting for level up stat bonuses and are slapping on 3 (i.e. level 12+), which I vehemently disagree with.
>>291666840Fighters get extra feats.
>>291664420In a way, Kabru finally managed to communicate with Laios, but not in the way he expected.
>>291664503>He looks just like you!!Why include this detail?
>>291664503is Izutsumi not saying that Marcillle is that one that has her dad's hair and eyes
>>291666880Yes. He spent his normal feats on skill focus (shite) and his fighter feats on Weapon Focus (longsword), Shield Focus (Heavy) and that general nonsense stuff, not actually useful feats, half of which are not applicable because poor when they started diving on this journey.
>>291666956Arr rook same
>>291664420>autist discovering different people like different types of ice cream>with a literal food analogy to bootKui will NEVER escape the neurodivergent protag accusation. She's just wrong, Laius IS on the spectrum.
>>291666956possibly kui mocking her own designs.>>291666994I feel like if Izu was mocking Marcille, Marcille would be in frame, or Izu would be looking in a different direction.But mocking Marcille for looking like her father is sort of an odd joke, I feel like mocking Laios for looking like Marcille's father is more joke-worthy.
>>291664249What Lion? SEXY? Sexy lion?
>>291666956It's a japanese thing, for some reason. Making fun of children for looking like their parents.No, Izutsumi is not speaking about Laios, take the shipping goggles off
>>291667136>It's a japanese thing, for some reason. Making fun of children for looking like their parents.that's disturbing
>>291666720>>291666782We do get his canon stats, but they're not on a 1:1 scale with D&D stats and they're on a scale of 1 to 5 rather than 1 to 20.His stats are noted to all be good, with the only exception being social skills.
>>291666956So we know for sure Marcille is in love with Laios.
>>291667005He's not a master swordsman or pulling crazy shit with shields, and he got access to those at level 1. With 3 feats (level 8) he could easily take two advances for a +4 and have a flex feat.
They look completely different.
>>291667136>>291667153NTR country
>>291663935https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-gD9PYqSps
>>291666956>Why include this detail?for no reason at all
>>291663935Someone please stop the vorefags before they see this
>>291663983Kui what the FUCK
>>291665154What's the fucking score?
>>291666880Laios strikes me as more of a Ranger.He has a favored terrain (dungeons), favored enemy (monsters), and Cure Wounds, Water Walk, and Greater Restoration (to cure petrification) are all on the Ranger spell list.On a meta level, Laios is also way stronger than everyone gives him credit for, just like how the Ranger has a reputation for being the weakest class in D&D despite that really not being true.
Okay, I take canaryfags over this.
>>291664143>when you make your gf mad and you don't know why
>>291664420>>291664440I always like this chapter. At first, I thought Laios is just an eccentric, but as you read along you realise Laios is in fact an immature teenager trapped into a grown man's body. To see him grow and reach this point where he can impart his lessons on Marcille is a great pay off
>>291664173OH NO SHE'S CRAZY!
>>291666717The implication is that she's the meal.
>>291664249Ok but why the stylish leg HUH?
>>291664517hantan lyë avestaina
>>291664300Marcille catching strays
>>291664341WE need Itzutzumi
>>291664420Man Laios really grew up as a character huh?
>>291664503AROUND ELVES>>291664517Thanks OP
>>291664517what a maidenly pose
>>291664503Izutsumi is just grabbing all of Senshi’s ass.
>>291664173>Bizarro Venat
>>291667031She can't dodge those accusations because retards will expand the definition of autism to envelope damn near everything.
>>291664225Chimera? Where?
>>291664057Did she already lose her desire to comb her hair here? Looks much more sexo tho
>>291664455I can't blame him, Marcille is extremely adorable.
>>291667212FUCK OCTUPUS
>>291664316For some reason I still think they're not literally the same being. Just lots of offshoots that still share stories between them. But still have individual will.It also ties into my theory that the reason that eating desires make them stronger is because it strengthen this particular demon's ego, making them manifest more in this world. If this avatar is defeated, the demon has to restart all over again. The reason this lion is very "powerful" is that he just ate a 1000-year old exquisite meal so his ego is through the roof.
>>291663912Why is this pot in the form of a clam? Does Marcille want me to eat her bivalve?
>>291664517>The dungeon is evilBros. It can’t be…>>291664517
>>291664517Lmao poor Senshi getting clawed instead of the father
>>291666491Are the /u/tards in the room with us?
>>291667889>AROUND ELVESSex.
>>291664249It isn't even a question.He IS trying to seduce them. And not just with power.
>>291663912Snapping Marcille's choker!
>>291664420Getting stabbed by a frying pan is fucking brutal.
>>291668254I found one (you)
>>291664572>>291664967>>291664680
>>291668394I ship Marcille with Laios. Of all the pairs it's the one that makes the most sense. But trying to trigger non-existing yuritards every time the two have a cute moment reeks of insecurity on your part and it's fucking cringe.
>>291664341The demon put up with the whole charade to consume victim's desires. But it can still freely use its power? Unlike typical genie, can only grant wishes.
>>291664341>Let's take ibuprofen...together
>>291664517Thanks for the dump. Chil and Kot on the same wavelength is funny
>>291666213the dungeon is only dangerous because (ignoring the whole demon breakout thing) the lord of the dungeon goes insane and makes the monsters attack everyone and traps to kill intruders and stuff. When Mithrun was lord he started out fully nonlethal and only progressed to monsters eating people and deadly traps after they wouldn't leave him and his waifu alone, and Thistle prevents monsters from hurting his people. Obviously it would never actually work long term but if you ignore the stuff Marcille either doesn't know or is being willfully ignorant about, "I'm the lord I'll just make it safe" is a viable solution. If you have enough power to make everyone on the planet live a thousand years, making monsters no more dangerous than normal animals would be trivial.
>>291668563Shut up Elf
>>291664379Would you fall to the dark side for this half-elf, /a/?
Meanwhile, Thistle is soiling the sheets while staring at the ceiling...
>>291668594Template for anyone who wants to play around.
>>291668563>the dungeon is only dangerous because (ignoring the whole demon breakout thing) the lord of the dungeon goes insane and makes the monsters attack everyone and traps to kill intruders and stuff.A dungeon is a massive magical environment saturated with massive amounts of mana. There are natural forming dungeons all over the DM world, along with the dungeons spawned by the Demon. Monsters are merely wildlife that have evolved to live in mana saturated environments. If Marcille would turn the entire world in to a dungeon, she would be covering everything in massive amounts of mana, and natural monsters that aren't made by her own intents would spawn, like changelings and nightmares and of course really big fuck off dragons. Things would get insanely dangerous, it'd be like a town getting overrun by wilb boars but × 1 million
>>291668594I love her!
>>291664198Honestly, just kill yourself if you feel that living that long is oh such a horrible burden. Many people would love long life.
>>291664218>elf blood gets diluted by the inferior races and they lose their longevity
>>291668705its not a couple of decades or maybe a century more, its fucking over 10 times a human natural lifespan, do you not understand how fucked that is?
>>291664517A reminder that a good portion of /a/ were also bedeviled by the Lion and thought he was a good guy when chapters were being released.
>>291665651>>291666272Literally just kill yourself if you hate your longevity. Meanwhile for the other, normal people it's a boon.
>>291668767Normal people don't get this buttmad.
>>291668749No, I really do not. Again, fucking kill yourself if you're such a pussy that a long life scares you. There's fucking magic everyhwere, healing/resurrection magic already can do incredible things, painless suicide would be easy.
>>291668640Sure, but she'd still be lord of itit's not like Thistle is making every monster in this dungeon personally, but they're still bound to his will because he's in charge of the mana or however it works, and aren't allowed to harm the villagersIf the whole planet is a dungeon and Marcille is lord of it it's reasonable to expect that the monsters would be beholden to her as well. It wouldn't actually work because the lion is lying and would eat everything instead, but if he wasn't lying and "I can do anything inside the dungeon as long as you desire it" is true, then making the whole world into a dungeon would mean you can do anything anywhere, and obviously "anything" includes preventing monsters from killing everyone.
>>291668793I get mad because there is this disgustingly pervasive belief in western stories that immortality sucks somehow. Not even the "you are literally being tortured for eternity" kind, but often even just infinite longevity without any drawbacks. And none of the arguments ever make a lick of sense. I very much prefer the chinese attitude towards it - that immortality is fucking awesome and should be strived for.
>>291668760The writing is that good
>>291668831Anon every third chinese story is about how the quest for immortality fucked everything up forever. All those kings that overdosed on mercury and died did not ingratiate the folklore.
>>291668831actual immortality does suck, because by definition you eventually spend 1000x more time drifting through entropic void soup or trapped in a block hole or whatever than you ever spent "living"But the "infinite lifespan but you can kill yourself whenever" kind has no personal downsides, yeah. It would be catastrophic for civilization though.
>>291668863I'm talking about modern xianxia. >>291668884>actual immortality does suck, because by definition you eventually spend 1000x more time drifting through entropic void soup or trapped in a block hole or whatever than you ever spent "living"Are you unable to read you fucking retard? I specifically mentioned this. >It would be catastrophic for civilization though.People already stop having kids just because their standard of living gets decently high. We'd be fine.
>>291668902We would not be fine. When every last birth is here forever, sex would become a global liability.
>>291668831You can already see old people living that lived for a long time without any illness or trouble that go insane or depressed.
>>291664037The consequences of having a girlly girl as a DM
>>291664379cute
>>291664057She kind of does, Chilchuk...
>>291664198so cute>>291668705if I could live that long and maintain my youth, that would be great. I don't want to live that long riddled with arhritis, dementia, failing hearing/vision etc
>>291664517don't trust evil women
>>291664503>fell for a man that looks like her fatherMany such cases...
>>291669007>I don't want to live that long riddled with arhritis, dementia, failing hearing/vision etcObviously. Nobody means that form of immortality, unless they're talking about some retarded "gotcha" trpa.
>>291666956to explain why Laois is her husband
>>291664379How do you expect me not to ship this?
>>291668705Many people would also come to resent such a long life and become violent bitter faggots; instead of the passive aggressive bitter faggots we deal with.
>>291664455>has a literal 'do it for her' collage in his head made up of Marcille's smilesThe dense motherfucker probably thinks this is normal and platonic.
>>291666491>Nooooo she's supposed to be gay this is queer erasurei can almost taste their tears
>>291668831holy autism
>>291664455>all he wants is to protect her smile
>>291668749It depends on the state you live those years in. Unless youre stuck as a child for ages and/or stuck as an old person for a sizeable chunk of it its a massive boon. Especially given the average assumption is you live most of it in the state of a 20-40 year old with most of that even being the 20-30 part. Plus you can achieve more longterm goals and build wealth more and for societies in that stage of tech youll have enough time to take up research/hobbies or read all available books etc.
>>291666358I'm actually surprised /ag/ isn't a thing yet. I don't know if it should be tbdesu.

>>291669219Who would be Casca in this? Laios, Falin, or Kabru?
>>291668831I like 17776's take on immortality. It's very optimistic over all even if it does get melancholic at times.

If you look at it like the Winged Lion is "3D" and the rest of the group is "2D", it feels like he's lowering himself from a higher dimension to a lower one so the party can communicate with this piece of an extradimentional being.
>>291664503Come on, Kui is definitely teasing the ship
>>291664517Thanks, anonsito.
>>291669557I think it's more so that the closeness of Laios and Marcille is important to highlight so that Marcille not following what Laios wants to do hits harder

>>291668831Things die for a reason. Aging is a planned process, and there's a reason it accelerates in high stress conditions. If the old don't die and get out of the way of the younger generations, they'll suck up resources and decrease the fitness of their children and grandchildren and so on. On an individual level immortality rocks, on a group/evolutionary level, there's a reason why very few animals have extreme lifespans.
>>291668633Unfortunately I'm a black hole of creativity.
>>291664081lol
>>291669668Yeah but they've been physically and emotionally close for the entire back half of the manga so far. Marcille needs to rest her head? It's on Laios's chest. We need to learn magic? Caress Marcille's face. They don't feel like simply comrades, just like how Fleki and Lycion feel closer than comrades.
>>291669007>>291669152The "and maintain my youth" bit is the killer. We already know from Mr and Mrs Tansu that the long-lifed races still have the normal human stages of life, they're just stretched out longer.So yes, you have longer as a 20-40 year old. You also have longer as a child, as an adolescent, and as an old person. Imagine 250 years of your body falling apart. That's an elf.
>>291666193Her goal is stupid but her distrust of the elves is completely valid given the circumstances. If anything Laios is still being way too naive after how he's been treated, even if he doesn't remember being genjustu'd.
>>291663912Yummers
>>291663912dumpy half elf
>>291669892> Imagine 250 years of your body falling apart.Eh, the gilf queen is around 370 and still looks pretty together.
>>291669892Idk the implication for an elf is that you stop at around ~60ish and even thats like 40s or 20s compared to some races and you just wither and die at a very fast part right at the end and even thats unlikely. Itd be more like the odd person you see die in their 50s rather suddenly from a heart attack who is otherwise healthy/biologically young for their age.
>>291669323Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Like if it was Marcille raping Laios, then Falin would be annoyed instead of traumatized.>>291669555Nice catch
>>291668760what works about the demon is that it's not wholly malevolent because it's all about 'grooming' dms into being the tastiest. It's not evil in the way most people think evil is, but in a very classic Satan archetype way. It's an alluring tempter, not just something out to kill everyone and everything.
>Marcille and Laios's relationship is built on the foundation of Laios making Marcille do something she doesn't like for her own good>...Like a father making his daughter eat her broccoli God damn it.
>>291669958You sure?

>>291665740The ut monsters falls in the sentient category like orcs
>>291668767> bro just kill yourselfthat itself is an abhorrent idea to a lot of people, either due to religious reasons or just because they don't want to go through the pain and fear of intentionally ending their own lives. Point is, as Laios says, there's no way to satisfy everyone in this scenario. A lot of people wouldn't want to live as long as 1000 years, some wouldn't even want to live to 500, and Marcilles fear of others dying before her isn't really a good enough excuse to justify radically changing everyones lives like that.
>>291667683Disagree. Laios always has a weird sense of resolution to him. He gets there, but not with logic that people would understand or accept, whether because it's strange and risky or something considered entirely taboo. Laios' growth has little to do with maturity and more just realizing that he does have to live in the world and understand it. He can't just choose to keep exploring and doing just what he needs to, taking his losses where they are. He has to accept a place in the ecosystem and better connect to those around them. Falin's death tethers him, Senshi's dungeon experience expands his understanding and application of the nature of life, the Orcs and Yaad give him purpose beyond his current goal, and his encounter with Thistle hammers in the final lessons about desires and such. It's all things that change him from being a detached drifter to someone who takes charge of everything

smile outthistle grimace in
>>291668633
>>291670869That's...what maturity is even when you say it's not. As you said, Laios started the story with a narrow view of the world. He slowly came to accept that no individual is an island until he ultimately comes to take on responsibilities and shoulder expectations like a man. Which is how I observe a lot of young people as they mentally and emotionally mature
>>291664680dungeon....meshi.
>>291664517They aren't aware of the demon's favorite dish at this point, right?Thanks OP.

>>291671266>That's...what maturity is even when you say it's not.Thank you for using the ellipses so I know that it's not worth putting the time in with replying to this post.
>>291663983
>>291664173I genuinely wouldn't mind to live 1000 years desu
>>291667683>Laios is in fact an immature teenager trapped into a grown man's body.now that is an INSANE overstatement
>>291667683>>291671558Yeah, I wouldn't say teenager. There's a lot about Laios that is relatively mature, especially when contrasted with Marcille and Izutsumi (as we've seen many times), but he's clearly doesn't have a handle on other people and how he can't impose himself constantly, and needs to have some sense of responsibility and thinking ahead. Which is what his core development has been, owning up and taking action in his life starting with going after Falin and that responsibility grew.But before that he was still a mostly functional adult (he was ostensibly the leader of his adventuring party for like two years), although he did need Falin around to not let himself commit a slow suicide.
I really wouldn't want to live 1000 years, either. Even if we ignore the obvious issues such as having to work to get by for centuries, we just aren't built for that. We cannot even conceive how the world would be 50 years from now, and many don't even think there will be a world by then. Even if I was economically set and had what seems to be literally all the time in the world, I really wonder how much would it take for someone to crack. Can our brains even exist for that long? Would we really remember our first 50 years when we're 600?It's actually an interesting philosophical question, we are so bound by mortality that we don't wonder what would it be. Is there a novel or something that deals with this? Because most stories that span ages do massive skips or don't go deep with this implication. It usually just goes from nothing to eternity, but 1000 years is both a seemingly impossible time for the human mind and yet more conceivable
>>291667683>>291671558>>291671624It's less so that he's immature, and moreso that his brain is wired so differently from everyone else's that it's hard to gauge maturity.Sometimes he's a capable leader who can understand people better than most and dole out sagely advice, and other times you can't leave him alone with raw meat or he'll eat it and give himself an intestinal parasite.In that sense, he actually parallels Marcille, whose aging is a complete gacha because of her mixed heritage.
>>291671708As we get older, our perception of time gets faster. The subjective midpoint of our lives is 18. Marcille is only 50, meaning she's only 5% of the way through her estimated lifespan.From her perspective, it's hard to imagine how much easier it gets as she gets older and time goes by faster. She's just thinking of her entire life and imagining herself repeating it 19 times.
>>291663935IT'S OVER AAAAAAAA

>>291664173>>291664198If it wasn't through the magic of an eldritch demon, her plan sounds kind of comfy.
>>291664173>>291664198What I want to know is HOW Marcille intends to extend the lifespans of the races to 1000.Because she's a freakish edge case.Tall-men and Ogres reach maturity at ~26% of their lifespan. Half-foots at ~28%. Dwarves at ~20%. Elves and Gnomes at ~16%.Marcille is already an adult and is only at ~5% of her lifespan.So is she going to have the races all reach maturity at the same age they already do, and then only experience old age at 1000, like she did? Or is she going to slow down their maturity to be more proportional to their total lifespans? What about people who are already alive? A tallman at 30 is middle aged, so will he live another 500 years as is proportional, or will he live another 970 and just be middle aged throughout them?Or worst of all, did she not even think that far ahead?

>>291665868What would be "Oxford Study" but for elves
>>291671920Once you reach maturity "aging" is just decay, so Marcille is probably just going to slow that decaying process. The alternative would be disastrous for either long or short-lived parenting.
>>291664440>Thistle traumatized Laios enough with his terrible "infinite food" strat that it gave Laios the necessary character growth to cut off Marcille's planHurray for bad DMs saving the day!
>>291664503>daddy issuesThis explains so fucking much.
>>291664517>the dungeon powered by an enigmatic cosmic entity is actually evil?!Oh Laios...Thanks OP.
I think people including the author have been unfair to Laios as if they expect him to solve every problem imaginable as party leader. Internal problems within a group are a (you) and (they) issue not a (his) problem. It’s like wanting a mentally handicap baby person to suddenly express above average leadership skills and finesse when dealing with other people it can’t be done.
>>291664402>>291664420>>291664440>>291664517>>291664455The lightning kinda makes Laios's hair to appear like he has half black hair
>>291666370Almost. There are a couple unrelated stray dudes shitposting for the (you)s but it's 99% the same guy.
>>291671721I think Marcille is really the one who is mentally immature, as implied by her nightmares.
>>291672093Over the course of the comic, the most biting criticism of Laios comes from people outside the core group dynamic. Laios is quite strong in his element with people who understand him well enough, but what's going on concerns more folks than just his immediate group. And that's where his personal development needed the most work, and to the credit of his maturity, Laios took this hits on the chin really well and did alter his behavior around the criticism he received. >>291672116Kui started shading the back of Laios's hair solid black a while ago
>>291668831This. Anyone who complains over consequence-free immortality is full on sour grapes.The problem is most settings have no concept of consequence-free immortality and this ESPECIALLY applies to Dungeon Meshi.>>291668863He's obviously referring to xianxia stories.
>>291668964there are no old people that live for a long time without illness or trouble
>>291672164They're both immature because they didn't integrate with their peers during childhood, with Marcille's aging discrepancy distancing her and Laios just failing to fit in with others. This is why Marcille's deepest wish is to force humanity closer to her while Laios divorces himself entirely.
>>291664218>in antiquity, the long-lived races all lived to that age>since the ancient war, their lifespans keep getting shorter, but when their blood is mixed with others, it reverts>Some say the Disaster happened at the beginning of the history of our people, before any had yet died. The Voice had spoken to us, and we had listened. The Voice said: 'Ye are my children. I have sent you to dwell here. In time ye will inherit all this Earth, but first ye must be children and learn. Call on me and I shall hear; for I am watching over you.'>We understood the Voice in our hearts, though we had no words yet. Then the desire for words awoke in us, and we began to make them. But we were few, and the world was wide and strange. Though we greatly desired to understand, learning was difficult, and the making of words was slow.>In that time we called often and the Voice answered. But it seldom answered our questions, saying only: 'First seek to find the answer for yourselves. For ye will have joy in the finding, and so grow from childhood and become wise. Do not seek to leave childhood before your time.'>But we were in haste, and we desired to order things to our will; and the shapes of many things that we wished to make awoke in our minds. Therefore we spoke less and less to the Voice.>Then one appeared among us, in our own form visible, but greater and more beautiful; and he said that he had come out of pity. 'Ye should not have been left alone and uninstructed,' he said. 'The world is full of marvellous riches which knowledge can unlock. Ye could have food more abundant and more delicious than the poor things that ye now eat. Ye could have dwellings of ease, in which ye could keep light and shut out the night. Ye could be clad even as I.'
>>291664218>>291672299>Then we looked and lo! he was clad in raiment that shone like silver and gold, and he had a crown on his head, and gems in his hair. 'If ye wish to be like me,' he said, 'I will teach you.' Then we took him as teacher.>He was less swift than we had hoped to teach us how to find, or to make for ourselves, the things that we desired, though he had awakened many desires in our hearts. But if any doubted or were impatient, he would bring and set before us all that we wished for. 'I am the Giver of Gifts,' he said; 'and the gifts shall never fail as long as ye trust me.'>Therefore we revered him, and we were enthralled by him; and we depended upon his gifts, fearing to return to a life without them that now seemed poor and hard. And we believed all that he taught. For we were eager to know about the world and its being: about the beasts and birds, and the plants that grew in the Earth; about our own making; and about the lights of heaven, and the countless stars, and the Dark in which they are set.>All that he taught seemed good, for he had great knowledge. But ever more and more he would speak of the Dark. 'Greatest of all is the Dark,' he said, 'for It has no bounds. I came out of the Dark, but I am Its master. For I have made Light. I made the Sun and the Moon and the countless stars. I will protect you from the Dark, which else would devour you.'>Then we spoke of the Voice. But his face became terrible; for he was angry. 'Fools!' he said. 'That was the Voice of the Dark. It wishes to keep you from me; for It is hungry for you.'>Then he went away, and we did not see him for a long time, and without his gifts we were poor. And there came a day when suddenly the Sun's light began to fail, until it was blotted out and a great shadow fell on the world; and all the beasts and birds were afraid. Then he came again, walking through the shadow like a bright fire.
>>291672093it kinda is his job as the leader, it's not like they have an HR lady. He's a legit great leader in combat and life or death situations, but even in the dungeon you're only fighting for your life a small fraction of the time, the rest is simple day to day shit, if he's the one making the final decisions he needs to be thinking about stuff like how to keep all the party members happy while staying fair between them, and stuff like how to invest or divvy up their earnings, and he's just really not good at that kind of thing.And a lot of his party's previous problems were at least partly his fault anyway, he spent most of his time on the island up until now getting taken advantage of and misreading people, part of the leader's job is absolutely to be smart enough to not hire the obvious crook that is going to try to rob you the first night out, or spend half the loot on magic beans. There's a reason by the time the story starts the only people willing to work with him are his sister, a weird foreigner that wants to bang his sister, his sister's elf GF and that one sus dwarf that probably scams people or something, and Chilchuk.
>>291664218>>291672305>We fell upon our faces. 'There are some among you who are still listening to the Voice of the Dark,' he said, 'and therefore It is drawing nearer. Choose now! Ye may have the Dark as Lord, or ye may have Me. But unless ye take Me for Lord and swear to serve Me, I shall depart and leave you; for I have other realms and dwelling places, and I do not need the Earth, nor you.'>Then in fear we spoke as he commanded, saying: 'Thou art the Lord; Thee only we will serve. The Voice we abjure and will not hearken to it again.'>'So be it!' he said. 'Now build Me a house upon a high place, and call it the House of the Lord. Thither I will come when I will. There ye shall call on Me and make your petitions to Me.' And when we had built a great house, he came and stood before the high seat, and the house was lit as with fire. 'Now,' he said, 'come forth any who still listen to the Voice!'>There were some, but for fear they remained still and said naught. 'Then bow before Me and acknowledge Me!' he said. And all bowed to the ground before him, saying: 'Thou art the One Great, and we are Thine.'>Thereupon he went up as in a great flame and smoke, and we were scorched by the heat. But suddenly he was gone, and it was darker than night; and we fled from the House.>Ever after we went in great dread of the Dark; but he seldom appeared among us again in fair form, and he brought few gifts. If at great need we dared to go to the House and pray to him to help us, we heard his voice, and received his commands. But now he would always command us to do some deed, or to give him some gift, before he would listen to our prayer; and ever the deeds became worse, and the gifts harder to give up.
>>291664218>>291672317>The first Voice we never heard again, save once. In the stillness of the night It spoke, saying: 'Ye have abjured Me, but ye remain Mine. I gave you life. Now it shall be shortened, and each of you in a little while shall come to Me, to learn who is your Lord: the one ye worship, or I who made him.'>Then our terror of the Dark was increased; for we believed at the Voice was of the Darkness behind the stars. And some of us began to die in horror and anguish, fearing to go out into the Dark. Then we called on our Master to save us from death, and he did not answer. But when we went to the House and all bowed down there, at last he came, great and majestic, but his face was cruel and proud.>'Now ye are Mine and must do My will,' he said. 'I do not trouble that some of you die and go to appease the hunger of the Dark; for otherwise there would soon be too many of you, crawling like lice on the Earth. But if ye do not do My will, ye will feel My anger, and ye will die sooner, for I will slay you.'>Thereafter we were grievously afflicted, by weariness, and hunger, and sickness; and the Earth and all things in it were turned against us. Fire and Water rebelled against us. The birds and beasts shunned us, or if they were strong they assailed us. Plants gave us poison; and we feared the shadows under trees.
>>291672166My issue is that the criticisms are unearned. There is literally no examples were Laios’s actions/inactions played such a role where he deserves part of the blame for whoever has a falling out. We just don’t really see it. Anything that might have hinted at it like the former party members who left before chapter 1 are apparently a nothingburger according to Marcille. The only thing he is guilty of is attempting to sexually harass and molest a cat nonsexually not being an inept leader.
>>291664218>>291672328>Then we yearned for our life as it was before our Master came; and we hated him, but feared him no less than the Dark. And we did his bidding, and more than his bidding; for anything that we thought would please him, however evil, we did, in the hope that he would lighten our afflictions, and at the least would not slay us.>For most of us this was in vain. But to some he began to show favour: to the strongest and cruellest, and to those who went most often to the House. He gave gifts to them, and knowledge that they kept secret; and they became powerful and proud, and they enslaved us, so that we had no rest from labour amidst our afflictions.>Then there arose some among us who said openly in their despair: 'Now we know at last who lied, and who desired to devour us. Not the first Voice. It is the Master that we have taken who is the Darkness; and he did not come forth from it, as he said, but he dwells in it. We will serve him no longer! He is our Enemy.'>Then in fear lest he should hear them and punish us all, we slew them, if we could; and those that fled we hunted; and if any were caught, our masters, his friends, commanded that they should be taken to the House and there done to death by fire. That pleased him greatly, his friends said; and indeed for a while it seemed that our afflictions were lightened. But it is told that there were a few that escaped us, and went away into far countries, fleeing from the shadow. Yet they did not escape from the anger of the Voice; for they had built the House and bowed down in it. And they came at last to the land's end and the shores of the impassable water; and behold! the Enemy was there before them.
The fastest, easiest, and most effective solution here is the same for any problem caused by an elf. What is the solution, you might ask? I'll give you a couple of hints: it starts with the letter "R" and rhymes with Ape.

>>291665740I don't think he'd want to eat them considering they're all people. He'd be able to talk/ACT them out of attacking considering he's fascinated by monster behavior.

>>291665976The issue is that it's gonna happen in the way the lion wants, if you know what's coming it's kind of a bad idea to do it his way, If the lion wasn't a factor I can see it working out eventually
>>291666213I agree, but that's not their sticking point. They're against the very concept of a longer lifespan, not just the fact that it's done with suspicious probably evil magic.

>>291664300if the lion breaks the panels because he is from a different dimension why is Laios doing it too?

>>291676585I went drinking last night and my head is killing me. Glad to know I can always count on Lion to give you good sensible advice
>>291676955I figured it's meant to represent distance from something, and the lion is the most extreme with it.
One thing Kabru underestimated is Laios’s love for Marcille. Her smile is the only reason he’s even thinking of doing what everybody else wants else he might have had to take up the dungeon lord position himself.

>>291679966>>291679990>>291680010Its really funny that Itzutzumi has the biggest collection of neurons in the group when she is not being a cat
>>291679783Didn't know Chilchuck liked to eat stacks of paper
>>291680112>This is the evil dungeon lord that's on the cusp of destroying the worldWhere did it all go wrong?
>>291680132My sister used to make "potions" for me to drink made from whatever she could find, so some salty pasta is nothing.
>>291680160Damn. That's what you get for race mixing, whore elf.

>>291676930It's okay, but the rng is a bitch when your opponents get explores 40% and you only get shitty 10%.
>>291680261Is this just fucking ramen?
>>291680353You know things really progressed when Chilchuck actually trusts Laios to handle a CHA check.

>>291680491Izutsumi lost all the competence she built that during this chapter, she just can't help herself.
>>291680079It's funny that for dozens of chapters, we only see her brooding. Then turns out normally, she's goofy af
>>291680501IN THIS HOUSE, MARCILLE DONATO IS AN ITALIAN HERO. END OF STORY.
What is Marcille's mom doing right now anyway?
>>291680261The straight cat
>>291679861I can't believe the Lion made Marcille's dad into an AI chatbot
>>291680667Cant remember if it's said in the story or extras but she's married to a gnome
>>291679966Chillchuck...
>>291679942What are those birds?
>>291680160Yeah it sucks having older parentsDon't have kids past 40, for all sorts of reasons
>>291680501>Marcille DONATO>anything but Italian
>>291680112ITALIAN WIFE
>>291680062In the EH version Chilchuck was relating to Papa Donato's dealing with a lively daughter
>>291680261I fucking love this manga
>>291680183He hates mondays.
>>291680079She remarried with a gnome
>>291679309LAOIS YOU MASSIVE HOMO!
>>291680039Laios needs to fill Marcille's dark soul with light
>>291680509>eyesFUCK
>>291680540
>>291680261I think Senshi over-folded that pasta
>>291680468Ah yes, Octodad
>>291680134I love that they made chashu based off a description of porchetta
>>291680540Waiting for the Mo edit
>>291680491>Kot is now using chopsticksShe's come so far since the start, I'm so proud of her
>>291680324Kot sippy
>>291680762I don't know. It doesn't appear in the bible, and Laios doesn't mention it when thinking of bird-type monsters.
>>291680062>>291680890Mistanslation from yen press most likely.Chuck was calling Marcille lively and not "he"
>>291681123Yen press and the infinite abyss of mistranslations.
>>291680112CUTE
>>291681122>>291680762That's Phoenix
>>291680187>>291680300Kind of another odd wording from yen
>>291680509>what lack of tallman dick does to an elf
>>291680112>Half Elf Half ItalianJesus Christ she never had any chance
>>291680261I think there's a layer to this in I think Senshi himself is somehow the equivalent of Dwarf-Japanese.
>>291679966Kot is the straight man now, just like her notdad Chilchuck
>>291680324cute cat properly holding her spoon
>>291680112How do you fuck up pasta? Unless by a little salt he meant like, the whole bag.
>>291680010Too real,. happens at my work too
>>291681205Aren't their necks much shorter? I don't remember them looking like cranes, they were more pheasant-like
>>291680062Man that guy was plowing that prime elf ass for years
>>291681296Unseasoned pasta is not a tasty dish. She basically just boiled the pasta in salty water and served.
>>291681205I thought that at first but they don't look like phoenixes.
>>291680112Why do elves have a feeder fetish?
>Bump limit alreadyDamnit OP not again
>>291681347I guess I'm just a weirdo then, becuase freshly boiled, unseasoned, and even unsalted, pasta tastes great to me.
>>291681123>>291681186Is it really a mistranslation though? The original wording might've been ambiguous.
>>291680160>my little sister's in hereHaha she called him fatAlso CUTE ELF MOM
>>291681385Is Gawain doing this dump as well?Curse you Gawain!
>>291680160Momcille is extra cute
>>291681396Yes, you are.
>>291679912>Izutsumi thinking about others and not abandoning the partyGrowth...
>>291681347>Pasta with some salt on itKid me would have eaten that no problemI don't know how or why but I liked to eat plain pasta then, probably autism
>>291680261I dont get it
>>291680625I really do like how Momcille is just as big of a goofball as Marcille is.
>>291680286>disheveled marcille UNNNFF
>>291680509Typical hippie terroristthanks OP
>>291664114>1st panel>top 500 anime betrayals
>>291681296It was sauceless pasta that was lightly seasoned. Looking at the plate, at least 3 pounds of it.
>>291681347I eat pasta with a bit of salt and just add Veggies and meat, I agree with >>291681396
>>291680540Is the russian tiger edit of this?
>>291681396You can eat an entire pot of salted pasta in a sitting? Damn man.>>291681598Well then it isn't just a pot of salted pasta is it?
>>291681474The joke is every culture has a different perception of what "pasta" is. Senshi heard a story about an italian family eating pasta and porchetta and misinterpreted it as a bowl of udon ramn with chashu (which is a japanese pork dish very similar to Porchetta in appearance but entirely different)This is made further ironic by the actual japanese person in the room instantly recognizing this isn't a dish from Marcille's hometown at all
>>291679966NIKO STYLE REDIRECTION KATA CHANGE OF SCENEREY

>>291680447>>291680468its an octopus????I mean, thats pretty clever, considered that in real life they can pull off some crazy examples of mimicry, but thats not what I was expecting at all
>>291682045Ah yes the strong scandinavian name Donato
>>291680126>>291680704Mate weighs like a third of Senshi's or Laios's weight and has the strength of a wet noodle, he's not gonna be doing anything against Octodad anyway
>>291682045>ScandavianMamma mia
>>291682045That'sthejoke.jpg
>>291682099>Marcille might be ItalianNo.I simply refuse to entertain that, Marcille is either Swedish or Norwegian
>>291681672It's just plain pasta with some salt, not really that different.
>>291680112I HOPE SHE MADE LOTSA SPAGHETTI
>>291682045Donato is an Italian name so.....
>>291682160Swiss Italian
>>291682160northern italy, honestly. Right nestled into the swiss/austria borders
>>291682045Ah yes, the famous Scandinavian Tuscany like fields where Pasta and Pork are common dishes
>>291680210Wait, so did Marcille's idea of using ancient magic to fix life-spans come from that one dream?I thought that was her goal from the start.
>>291682045She clearly French
>>291664198Rejecting it outright like this was asshole posturing.Dudes, the problem is the demonic end of the world behind it, not her wish as much.
>>291680112>Italian That explains her current authoritarian behavior
>>291682195She likes seafood, so she's a terrone. Sorry you had to find out this way.
Think about it, Tone... the sudden goat eyes...
>>291676585I prefer tylenol
>>291682266
>>291664218>>291668717Yeah, I don't like this bit. Don't do this to erufu, Kui-sensei!
>>291682320she's not brown though
Marcille is albanian
>>291682164Yeah, but it's a side dish where your palette is refreshed by other flavors than a bowl of starchy salted pasta, presumably without butter and with no other flavors in the meal.
>>291664276>"stay hungry" is a devil's whisper
>>291682256It was her goal from the start. Laios shouldn't blame himself for what happened in the dream, although Marcille's first death in the dungeon should have been a red flag.
>>291680062Now that she likes the group and is not a seething slave her personality is even better and she's even cuter
>>291679966>second panelfingers split in a way to show the limitations of tentacles mimicking hands and fingersother arm gets a little boneless
>Marcille left alone for a few hours>AAAAA WHAT IF I NEVER SEE MY FRIENDS AGAIN I'M GOING INSAAAAANE
>>291679809dwarf panties shot>>291680300During the nightmare chapter, aging and death were represented by getting tired and falling behind to get consumed by the monster. I think "run faster" works.
>>291680904>>291680314Someone post the Garfield pipe edit
>>291681037Should we consider this a coincidence or an actual reference?
>>291682427Well, I just fry the meat (ground beef or chicken) with salt, not exactly the most flavor
>>291682492Same with his hand in the second panel here too >>291680426 You can see in the last one >>291680447 how it makes hands so you're probably right about the fingers as well
>picky about food>wears sandals>loves bathing>loud and emotional, common outbursts at her male friends.She's obviously Italian / Mediterranean. How can anyone think she's from Scandinavia is beyond me.
>>291682648She is no where near hairy enough to be an Italian girl
>>291682632I think it must be a coincidence.
>>291682320Is her mother from NotTerrone?
>>291682667Where the fuck did you get this from? away you go
>>291680010This is honestly a bit of a plot point given how chatty Marcille is and how there's fuck all to do on dungeon evenings
Every page is good, every character is interesting. This manga is so fucking good. Kui is a blessing
>>291682674Her mother is from New Jersey.
>>291682734HOBOKEN?OOOOHHHH I'M DYIN' AGAIN
>>291682674Anons before likened the elves to the Meshi equivalent of Americans, and I can't shake impressionAnyway since her surname is Donato it's pretty likely she got it from her dad, which would make him the Italian
>>291682701Pretty eyes
>>291680491What a refined and well-mannered young lady
>>291682692NTA but Italian women are notoriously hairy.
>>291681037what does a game about playing a perfectly normal father getting attacked by a crazy chef for no reason have to do with this?
>>291680609No she didn't
>>291682940We've never seen her bush and we know she shaves.
>>291682667Her elven genetics suppress her hair
>>291683051I've seen (fan)art that shows she has a small bush
>>291679861>>291679885I don't fully get why he has to be a monster? Why wouldn't the demon be able to just create a "doll" and give it some limited intelligence
>>291682940Being an elf female, Marcille is naturally quite hairless. Her legs in every panel they are shown look baby smooth
>>291683110There's actually a bit about that in one of the omakesKui has truly thought of everything, not a drop of blood is left in this stone
>>291679966shit.. he knows aikido
>>291682940Overwritten by elven genes
>>291683101Because this manga is about dungeons and monsters
>>291683169Plus he has a ponytail. It's over for them
>>291664420NUDE FALIN UOOOOH
>>291683101The demon acts through monsters. It's not explained why, but monsters also subsist on magic and he's made of magic so it's presumably easy to just shape a monster rather than make a magic powered human body. Mithrun had a monster lover after all.
>>291664440aww, Marcilol's face
>>291683236
