I could just imagine that the various minders meeting up:

Housekeeper: "Alright, Alec is staying at my place right now but if we could get him to move..."
Manager: "I've kept the top floor apartment open, let's give him a few recommendations that won't fit. Then he'll check my place out and surely will take it."
Housekeeper: "You sure this is going to work?"
Manager: "Oh absolutely, if he's that close it's just a matter of time before Shiori's apartment is free too. Plus, we'd need one less minder for the two of them for now."
Housekeeper: "Thanks for this, I really need a break from monitoring Alec to spend time with my daughter and future grandchild."

A few days later.
Manager: "I don't know how it worked that quickly, Shiori was asked to move in immediately!"
Housekeeper: "that's great, been wanting to see those two make a commitment. Have you informed the network? Word sent up the chain?"
Manager: "Yep, they should already gotten word of Alec moving and shortly they'll get the word on the rest of the housing changes. Your grandbaby come yet?"
Housekeeper: "not yet, I got moved in fully though, so I'll be there to help."

Anyways, some secrets are being found out and confirmed to some degree... relationship is charging forward. Alec already giving her the wedding gown and moving it together... It's too bad that formality will make the official wedding take a lot longer to get to.

Also, I just noticed this thread doesn't have the housekeeping tag on it.

OK Shiro's sisters are really starting to piss me off.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Lloyd has picked up a slave minion. Now let's see if he applies the Allen Rovene training techniques in order to get him to the optimal peak of perfection.

The LN is so far ahead of the manga that I'd forgotten a lot of this, so it's refreshing to reread it in manga format. Plus the mangaka's illustrations are really good.

You have to love the duality of Amelia's intelligence:

On the one hand, as we're reminded of in this chapter, she's the top ranked student in the Special Course for the best of the brightest. It's also been previously stated that she had the best test scores of her year before becoming the only first year to enter the Special Course. On the other hand, "I used to wander alone in the sticks all the time, I'll be fine. Never mind that I was explicitly warned about potential foreign agents making a move during the event. What? You think I should be careful because I could be valuable either as Sarge's assistant or a hostage? I'll be fine".

so hard to follow the action here. if not for the descriptions in the dialogue I'd be totally lost.

@Darkchaser Yeah, she's a member of the "Fairy Maid Corps"...

Sometimes the best way to learn something new is to teach someone else.

One page was MAXIMUM EFFORT.

I don't b lame Ange for looking so upset on the cover. Nobody looks good in pale barf green, and the dress doesn't look comfortable either.

@arghc said in Fushi no Kami (Manga) Vol 9 Discussion:

I forget who the disgruntled angled bob haircut kid in the crowd was....

Isn't it the kid that was bullying Hermes when they first met him?

Mary has the right idea. "Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

I've commented concerning the good choice of mangaka before, no?
Let me reiterate...
