      Hylebos

      v4p4 ~80%:

      It was the first time she had ever held a katana, so she was entranced by its lethal beauty.

      Now it's entirely possible that this is simply the result of honoring the source material with an accurate translation, but I figured I'd double check all the same: technically speaking, Melty held a katana in just the previous chapter when the protagonists were trying to convince her that Lutz was a reputable Blacksmith, so shouldn't this be perhaps this katana rather than a katana ?

      They are called tablets elsewhere in the chapter.

      "Epilogue: The Most Frightening Guard (The Pope)"
      This line looks like it should be a heading, with paragraph spaces before and after it.
      Same with "Afterword", 83%

      74%
      "However, I’d had no idea that, through my magic, demonic charm power had accumulated within the priests themselves."
      It works as is, but unless 'charm' is specified it might work better simply as 'demonic power'

      V13P2 ~8%
      "...it wasn't the done thing for a duke to get their hands dirty..."
      This is less a 'correction' and more a general question: I'd never actually heard this phrasing before and did some checking and it looks like it's more common in all other forms of English except American English, I guess? Is this something that, while thinking to himself, Dias would use?
      I'm more curious than anything else about if the translator(s) keep a kind of speaking style in mind when choosing expression/idiom usage on a per-character basis.

      Q

      Part 1 (p123/776: Outside the Barrier)

      The greater boar used earth magic to launch throwing stones as ranged attacks and the pace at which with which it charged its target was close to the speed of sound.

      i feel like the translator intended to replace one of these 'whiches' and forgot to finish. probably the the latter.
      it happens, but i'm surprised nobody caught it during the prepubs?

      @JustWaiting said in Zilbagias the Demon Prince - Corrections Topic:

      V6 P13 ~21%

      "Then she opened her mouth wide, and sank her fangs into his neck." There shouldn't be a comma after 'wide'. "sank her fangs into his neck" is not an independent clause.

      V6 P13 ~19%

      "His desperation was earnest, but at the same time depressingly comical, like a child throwing a tantrum." Same situation as above. The comma after 'earnest' shouldn't be there.

      Thanks, should be fixed now.

      The mages flew into a range and aimed their staffs at me.

      The mages flew into a rage and aimed their staffs at me.
      The mages flew into range and aimed their staffs at me.

      Have to check the raws to determine which.
      Unless, of course, it's a lovely play on words and quite deliberate.
