We're moving towards the end of the Church's arc and things has gotten dangerous. I like Kondo and Aresh progression in their relationship. Kondo is finally getting there... (about time). And the translation is, as always, an absolute delight. This manga has given me some of the best sentence translation into Spanish. I can't wait to get the next one.

Ach, es war sehr schön, dass es endlich mal wieder romantisch wurde! Auch wenn ich die ganzen Charaktere nicht mehr auf die Kette kriege und diese ganzen verschiedenen Ämter unnötig kompliziert sind.

The Church reform project is coming to an end. Kondou is down to his last scraps of magic barrier that Aresh created before he went to fight miasma, and he’s starting to suffer from the effects of magic. Nonetheless, he joins a prayer ceremony that sucks out extra magic energy. Something goes wrong, and a magic explosion almost incapacitates Kondou. Good thing that Aresh arrives in time.
Aresh is able to save Kondou the usual way, but he’s now spent all his magical energy and needs to recuperate. He doesn’t want to worry Kondou with it, which leads to the latter worrying for their relationship instead. But in the end, it brings them closer, but only because Aresh’s butler reveals the truth to Kondou. Others are starting to pay attention to their relationship too. Especially since Aresh is jealous when Father Sigvold and the prime minister pay attention to Kondou.
But the Church project isn’t quite over. Because someone deliberately targeted Kondou with the explosion. The volume ends before we find out who.
Great volume. There was good progress in Kondou and Aresh’s relationship, shown much better in manga form than the light novel, which tends to skip the important bits. Looking forward to reading more.

The worldbuilding is lacking a little… it’s a bit conventional. However, Seiichirou is still an ICON so I still think it goes hard

Since it's been more than a year between manga volumes, I've finished the whole light novel series, and the manga has instead become a refresher and alternate perspective. (The anime's also reached this point in the manga, too.) That changes a bit how I view things, but I continue to hope that the manga adaptation covers the entire series, because there is a lot I seem to prefer in this format.
For instance, the scenes with Aresh hit a lot harder because you're able to actually see the unspoken expressions on both Kondou's and Aresh's faces. Written descriptions can accomplish that...but the light novels kind of don't, so it was really, really lovely to have some of Kondou's massive realizations playing out with more visual impact.
I'm still not particularly fond of the prime minister and priest trying to pull tug-of-war with Kondou's affections, but I did like how clearly he brushes them off in favor of Aresh. It's not something Aresh can really see a lot of the time: he's still heartsick with what continues to feel like a mostly one-sided love. The roughest part is that it doesn't really matter to him. He would quite literally die to save Kondou's life, knowing full well that while Kondou would appreciate the gesture, he might never love him the way Aresh desperately needs.
The line about Kondou never sending him a single letter while he was away felt like a knife straight into the chest. Aresh has some issues with possessiveness and jealousy, largely stemming from his insecurity about Kondou's feelings and his protectiveness over his well-being - but his genuine, self-sacrificing love is so fully on display in this volume.
Loved the conversation with Aresh's butler. Kondou needed that practical assessment of their situation, and he definitely needed to be told that while it's bad enough for him to be endangering his own health, he's also actively putting Aresh in danger. He's...trying to do better. It's not something he can fix overnight. But he's at least aware now.
And I did love that heart-clenching moment when Aresh looked up at him with so much hopeful longing, and Kondou finally realized that he can't keep putting his feelings on the back burner forever. He does have incredibly deep feelings for Aresh, and he's going to have to address them.
The church conspiracy storyline is continuing...I can't remember how much longer it takes to wrap up, but maybe by the next volume? I assume that will be the conclusion of the anime, since there are only a couple episodes left. But the stuff with Sigma getting recruited for the royal sorcery department is really fun, and shows the impact Kondou is making on people.
I also like the prince more in the manga...he feels more human and more truly devoted to the Holy Maiden. Rough on him, because she seems a lot more interested in knight captains and handsome priests and in going back home...
...something Aresh's staff is really worried about when it comes to Kondou, but all they can do is wait and watch over the household, and their lost-in-love young master.

J’ai bien aimé ce tome 6, notamment pour les retrouvailles entre les personnages, que j’ai trouvées très réussies et franchement satisfaisantes. On est clairement dans un bon BL, avec cette rivalité entre plusieurs hommes autour d’un même personnage, et ça fonctionne très bien. Les tensions, les regards, les non-dits… tout est là.
L’arrivée de l’assassin, qui cible directement le comptable, apporte une dose d’action bienvenue. C’était sympa, dynamique, et surtout très efficace pour montrer à quel point le capitaine est inquiet pour lui. On sent que ses sentiments sont profonds et sincères, et ça rend certaines scènes particulièrement touchantes.
L’intrigue autour du royaume continue aussi de s’épaissir. Le trafic de mana apparaît désormais comme une véritable magouille à grande échelle, ce qui donne encore plus de poids à l’aspect politique de l’histoire et renforce l’intérêt global du récit.
La fin du tome a un petit goût de “fin d’arc”, presque de conclusion temporaire, avec ce côté à suivre. Personnellement, ça ne m’a pas dérangée : j’aime toujours autant l’univers et la direction que prend l’histoire.
Mon seul vrai bémol, c’est le comptable lui-même : j’aimerais vraiment qu’il assume enfin ses sentiments pour le capitaine et qu’il arrête de le repousser pour des raisons un peu futiles. Tout est là, il ne manque plus que ça.
Un tome 6 plaisant, équilibré entre action, romance et intrigue politique, qui confirme que la série reste très solide et toujours aussi agréable à suivre.

And so the accidental harem grows. Such is the way of anime mcs.
Loving the progress in this one. The more Seiichirou learns about the church and how it handles magic the more questions he has cuz the math ain't matching. They're being weird about the magic they're collecting. But the church wasn't a fan of him snooping so he wound up in danger as usual but this time it wasn't just him who wound up bed ridden. Thanks to that he had to consider that maybe working to the bone isn't good work if someone else needs to clean up after him in the end. For like a whole two minutes lol he still goes right back to workaholic mode but now slightly less so. My traumatized son is learning u_u I'm so glad that he's finally somewhat admitting outloud that he likes Aresh. Still not crazy about him. I've never liked jealous characters but I guess he's justifiably angry in this volume.
Side tangent for thoughts on the anime. I like that it's there but it's bare bones by comparison because entire conversations are missing that add more to different characters relationships. The art is very simplified. It's not awful, its still perfectly watchable, but there isn't as much depth as I would like. It is moving pretty quickly though because it got to this volume in like 11 episodes

It cracks me up that Kondou's slow realization he's falling for Aresh makes him wonder whether something is wrong with his heart. I also love how clear Aresh is that this one is mine, I claimed him, he will be fine because *I will make him fine.*
We have the Nefarious Dealings at the church continuing here and gosh do I love Father Siegvold and his awkward kind-of crush on Kondou. (Looking forward to seeing what's going to happen with the casually-mentioned connection to Aresh.) The multiple storylines are starting to come together a bit, which is neat to see, as we the readers get more glimpses of how the people around him see Kondou and his internal narrative (so often reinforced in his world) of being nothing more than a drone gets dismantled and reshaped. The weird triangle of the holy maiden and the prince and the priest continues apace and Siegvold has no idea, bless him.
The aside with the butler was such a beautiful scene, honestly, very Alfred and Bruce Wayne in its way. Definitely ready for volume seven's promised Big Reveal of Conspiracies.

welcome to volume 6 of sei being reckless with his body and health, this time featuring aresh, also being reckless with his body and health. I know love makes you stupid, but aresh doing the same shit he's been nagging sei about for 4 volumes has to be a new low 😭
though I do get its meant to be a turning point for sei, to see the consequences of his actions, so I can forgive it.
what i can't quite forgive is whatever is going on with the plot. I expected the miasma to play a bigger role here. for obvious reasons, but its just not. instead we have nobles abusing a religious system, a church cover-up, and an assassination??? and it wouldn't feel so abrupt if the plot didn’t seem like just set-dressing for the characters to go through their arcs.
I think having a work that is more character focused than plot focused is fine. I just think this manga series is trying to balance both, and it isn't really doing a good job of it.
sei and aresh are adorable though, and reading this is worth it for them alone.

The extra, as usual, is very cute. Vol. 7, I'm waiting for you to deliver that part!!!
I have to say, the reason I gave this four stars out of five is probably because I read this in Japanese, and before that I've already read the original novel in English so it was a bit tedious for someone who's already read it. The manga itself is very well-paced and well-drawn and I have no actual criticism about the one star I docked. I'm just personally a little miffed that the church plot is still on going since I've already read that part. But reading the manga... it truly is inevitable. If you don't want to take away anything from Seiichirou and Aresh's developing relationship, you truly have to just draw the manga the way it is. So the book two of the light novel will be wrapped up in Vol. 7, I guess. I can't wait to see how that goes.

It's been a few years since I read volume 5 so it took me a moment to remember what was going on with the church. Actual plot aside, I do love how the romance is progressing. It's really sweet that Aresh wanted to go informal with Kondou. I'm uncertain how I feel about this random "love triangle" vibe with the religious dude, but I can't say I blame a man of the cloth wanting some "holy sex." I mean... sex in the name of saving a life is admissible. Right?! Right?! (lol) Outside of the spice content, I absolutely love the boy (Sigma, I think). He's so smart, and I'm glad Ist and Kondou are trying to help him growing educationally and professionally.

I liked this volume but I think the conflict is just okay, I want to know the church stuff... I guess. I mostly like it cause our Knight is a jealous man. But then our Bean Counter annoys me again. He finally acknowledges that he needs to take better care of himself because it drains our knight, and then he goes and IMMEDIATELY "forgets" to eat lunch again... just le sigh dude. But we got more cute moments between them. I wish there was more dialogue to build a real relationship between the two of them. Its hard for me want their success when I am not sure why they actually like each other.

November 14, 2025Je ne me lasse pas de cette petite histoire, pas mal ficelée du tout!
Franchement, je ne m'attendais pas du tout à ça quand j'ai ouvert le premier tome de la série, mais je suis bien accrochée à ce petit BL guimauve mais pas niais.
J'adore Seichiro alors que j'ai horreur des bourreaux de travail dans son genre, mais son abnégation, sa logique et son pragmatisme ont eu raison de moi.
Sur le papier ce manga n'était pas fait pour moi, mais j'adore.

I don't think I can begin to express how much I love this couple! Pair the sweetness of their interactions with a solid story and you get quite a winner! The pacing is just right and there's always something worthwhile added to the story with each volume!
Another life and death situation brings the pair together for their 3 time. When kondou wakes up though, the sweet wuvvies in his eyes as he faces at aresh.... Squee!! 🥰

While investigating accounting issues within the Church, Kondou is attacked with magic and Aresh must save him (which, of course, involves sex).
This is a very good example of the hurt/heal trope with m/m and isekai thrown in. The best part is that this volume includes Kondou realizing that there are emotions other than lust involved. His wide-eyed wonder as he starts to think 'what if?' is great.

Wszyscy, cały świat i religia sprzymierzyli się, by ubić Seiichiro. Ale przynajmniej mamy gołe przytulasy z Areshem - tak się zastanawiam, czy panowie ruszyli coś dalej z cielesnością, czy to nadal takie przyjacielskie mizianie się parówkami? Bo to już szósty tom, można by ustalić, na czym stoimy (okej, ciut ustalili, ale to tylko pod publiczkę).
