Feeling uneasy is not something without cause in this situation.

Oh, and aren't you a friend of the current Demon Lord (recluse extraordinaire)

This does not bode well for a peaceful slow life if word gets out.
"Teach my kid!"
"What do you know concerning X individual?"
"Got any neat plants to spare?"
"What do you know concerning..."
"...You owe back taxes..."

Dye me in your colors!

How lewd!

Both the chapters not being listed, and the forum link have been corrected.

Noel sure is a bundle of energy. Seems weird seeing it spelled Noel though because I always think of that as a man's name. The women's version of that name is Noelle. I guess it's easier to fit in the manga speech bubbles though. JNC did use Noel in the LN, too, so it's consistent at least.

OK now!

We've got a competent claimant to the throne, if one doesn't mind a succession struggle or two.
Good to know.
...Or at least rumors paint him as competent... Well, if in comparison to the current Crown Prince, what's that phrase? "The bars kinda low?"

Mr. Matcha!

The Warrions are nuts.

"The scent of lady Sophelia's magic"?
kinky

The classic method of letting someone else do the hard, tiring work, and then try to steal the treasure from them.

I'm pretty sure I didn't miss anything, but

THEY ARE SO MARRIED

Thank you to those who reported corrections. All have been fixed in QA and are now reflected on the website and ebook.

@aZaphos

Hello, please refresh. The issue has been fixed.

Ah, Zarish, it was nice knowing you.

Ah nevermind, no it wasn't. Karma's a b****. :-)

Dig the domino, man.
Elton John would approve.
The animators of the ending credits of Ojisan would also approve.

Wow, even given a clear path forward and shown how rushing into a solution backfired, the Prince just doubles down on his foolishness.

I love that even when being confronted with the Prince's stupidity and facing arrest, Seika aims for as peaceful solution as possible until the Prince doubles down on trying to take Yifa. It's nice to see him verbally berate the Prince and finally call him out on all the shit he's done.

Lize also finally takes a stand and calls out the Prince. She even shows reason by both agreeing with Seika's requests about the Dragon and offering Yifa a gift of elementals to aid her.

I'm glad it seems we're finally done this arc. It kind of sucked that these last few chapters were spent mostly with the Prince being scummy and dragging things down.

@schuburner said in Bibliophile Princess (Manga) Vol 9 Discussion:

@pcj Did you mean volume 9, chapter 2? If so, we'll ensure this is fixed in QA and updated on the website prior to the book's release.

Oops, indeed I did. It was for volume 9, I typoed.

It's been a while since I read the earlier manga volumes but it sorta makes me want to look back and see where things went wrong... I did not have day-drunk Ai Fa on my bingo card.

Yuki realized that he can use his newfound villian status to work out some of his rage by calling out the head of those that caused it. If this isn't proper anger management, I don't know what is.

And now that conflict with the Empire apparently reared it's ugly head at the end of today's release.

Some pages looked like memes before it was fixed.

Hello,

This issue with renting has now been corrected.

Thank you for reporting it!

If seekers have only one chance to open the door of truth and if there is a tendency for seekers who reach that point to take the easy way out, then the number of seekers who not only open the door of truth and survive the trial that lies beyond must be vanishingly rare.
