Good read, can't wait for the next. Hayato saying if they still can go home hurts. Also damn it Zaimokuza giving ideas to Hubert.

These 3 really needs each other but why do I have a feeling that they're going to be separated or at least one of them.

Really interesting, hope to see more!

Keeping the sides of someone born to a peaceful world where killing isn't something you'd ever consider a normal part of life, and then putting them in a fantasy world where it is, that is something not normally seen in most isekai. So many times you see stuff where the MC or MCs have no issue at all, and easily justify this stuff too.
Here that isn't the case, and that's right. One's mental state doesn't change so easily. These three are normal high school students. They want to return to that life too. But to get a chance of that, they are forced to kill when given no other choice. And it's taking massive toil on them. That is good to see. It's realistic to see. So great job with that, since it makes their struggles here feel so much more real.

Ayo I see that hachi already making some moves on the board of rom-com now this is really like a persona game set in magic medieval...Europe? I feel that's the main inspiration for 3 houses setting is.
Social links, fighting god and marrying the waifu is all part of the ride and this is the right one for me.

I do like the isekai with 3 people and actually have all of them matter.

Zamizoku is here for the weeb inside of everybody and hiw most of the would react to a classic media trope

Hayama is here the genric main isekai protagonist who in reality would hate to be in another world forced to kill and kidnapped from all he loves. Tho this could apply to all three it is a reasonable reaction to these kind of circumstances.

Hachi is here as the guy that is in the middle of these two like out of Ebina's smut tho maybe Zamizoku would be more skinny if written by her...or replaced by tobe.

Their interactions with each and the students are very well done.
I like how some characters act as mirrors to some of the cast back home like byleth/shizuka, edelgard/Yukio,Hachiman/Lindthart,Lindthart/totsuka.

Those are all I can tell for now.
The eventual first kill and real 1st battle was well done and the scene with Hachi healing an enemy than immediately paying for that was good to see.

A good reminder of the world he's in and the situation he's force to participate in.

Good stuff so far

I love it! This is one of the most realistic take on a summoning. Will be watching this story

An interesting event, I'm looking forward to the future

Don't know anything about Edelgard's character but a bit surprising how fixated she is on Hachiman's group. I can't help but wonder what her agenda is. Did she see potential allies? Does she think they can lead her to something amazing with their differences and potentials? Does she enjoy the back and forth barbs between herself and Hachiman? I suppose i will have to wait and see.

A year. let's see how they push on in this before they have to consider other options.

So 8man can now use magic cancer powers? He better get some practice in, just in case he accidentally does it while trying to heal someone.

Now I'm really shipping edelgard and hachiman

Will Hachiman tell stories of his land. Like Buddha, the God Hachiman, and other stories like that.

Okay, so Hachiman can apparently pull the same stunt as the bad guy from Drifters by using his healing spells to create Cancerous tumors.

Wonder if he replicate any of the other abilities...

Hahaha, fucking ouch. This was traumatizing as shit. Loved the little detail of Byleth trying to give them an out, unaware of the fact there is no out. They have nowhere to go, nothing to their name. They are going to be knights, wether they want to or not, because they literaly have no other option. It's just so sad.

I wonder who else noticed how the three REALLY dont belong here, not suitable for being knights.

Hence the title: to reach their hands? Cool

It's always weird yet thrilling to read/see the first time someone kills. How will they react? How do they come to terms with that sin? How will they move forward?

Please update soon.
