Mushoku Tensei Joblesse Oblige Ch 4 came out 4 months ago... pretty hard to keep track of when these things come out.

Good chapter, and it shows Pax Jr. (Pax had a son that Rudolph was tasked to protect. Totally forgot about him, but it makes sense that he's around Sieg's age) and Sieg as friends. And Sieg is not a strength miko contrary to some speculation. He just trained really really hard lmao. There are a few Zanoba references in comparison.

Oh snap, there's what I love about MT... the world building. The magic academy and the areas around it are some of the most developed places in the story, but this chapter has a bunch of information about the slums around the area, which never got a mention in the main series, and the entire chapter is just 2 friends from a completely different background discussing an illegal slave market, why one hates it and the others simply find it fascinating. Expositions told by description, dialogue, history, and action but also in an engaging way. Seems like such a basic thing, but the author does it so much better than his competitors. And readers already know Pax Jr's, origins, so his personality is built to make so much sense, and the questions that Sieg has about Pax's motivations become much more meaningful, despite being the first chapter of his appearance in the entire series

Even if you don't know the whole story, it's still worth reading, but there are a lot of spoilers lols. Especially a spoiler to the ending of one of the bigger arcs

Ch. 5 of Joblesse is in editing, so pretty good timing. I'll probably check back in a week. EDIT: Nvm, it came out lols. It's about one of Sieg's little sisters, Lily. I forget err... who she's from let's say

Meanwhile, Volume 14 of the LN got its cover released, and wow... Atofe looks a lot better than I thought she would. I wonder if they'll have an illustration of her err... getting the top half of her blown away by Rudeus :P
