A VERDANT VACATION!

Mia's safe return to the elves of Bolenan Forest is cause for celebration! Satou and crew are showered with hospitality, including elegant music, lavish feasts, and an exclusive look at some of the most advanced technology in the world. But all these luxuries pale in comparison to the true object of Satou's desire: the beautiful high elf Aaze. As the seeds of a summer romance take root in his heart, his peaceful days in Bolenan Forest are tragically cut short by the threat of an invasive species! Can Satou quell this disaster and land a date with the demi-goddess…?

Elf Village

Satou lends his aid to Mia’s Hometown. The World Tree City of the Bolenan Clan is the central location covered in this book. Rather than being fantasy based, the Elves of the story are more Science-Fiction based. The Elves picked up some weird habits from one of the previous heroes.

Anyway, the World Tree is like a spaceship, but it acts as a control center for a mana vein. Lady Aaze is the leader of Mia’s tribe. She is millions of years old, and acts coquettish towards Satou.

Eventually, Satou reveals all of his secrets to Lady Aaze, but due to her position, she can’t return his feelings or act on hers at all. We finally leave the Elf Village at the end of the book.

Stories are starting to get slow.

Didn’t quite like this one, I just can’t put a finger on why, it could be because there wasn’t very much action in the story or it could be that the author took multiple pages to describe one scene that could’ve easily been skipped or summarized. It’s just came cross as a feeling that this was a very short story and a lot of additional stuff was added to it just to make it into a novel.

The parts I remember is they stay in the elf village. They make curry for like 400 elves + the main party. Satou does not get the new girl as he is not a god or does not think he is a god. Satou gets tricked into marring Mai, the elf girl with him since volume 1. At the end they go off in a boat to sail to a labyrinth city.

Good book hopefully volume 9 will not take what seems like a year to come out.

An improvement from the original web novel

A lot of new content and reworking went into this volume that changes the pacing of the original source web novel into a solid volume. It serves as a decent training arc, better introduces a romantic interest, and keeps some of levity you expect from the prior volumes. Can’t wait for the next one.

Really enjoyed it. Super easy read to just sit back and relax with. There was a lot of world building/exploration here, which was quite entertaining to read through.

Author has a great imagination.

Emotional

This series usually makes me laugh and I still did quite a few times while reading this book. But this one had a wee tear jerker moment as well. Honestly the story just gets better and better

Volume 8 continues the story with all of the same pros and cons of precious volumes.

If you're still reading this series at this point then you know what sort of thing to expect.

4 out of 5.

Rather boring to read through because absolutely nothing happens. Just a story of the main characters enjoying themselves in the land of the elves.

This one was probably the most uninteresting so far. It is also quite annoying that many of these isekai novels there is a huge part of making mc's home country's food. Like fishing for cheap ways to readers to relate. I have hard time understanding why MC group filled with little girls and teenagers and pointing or hinting how mc wants adult company. Mc is not very interesting, but then again when OP MC are? I found it odd/annoying why MC couldn't respect Mia the elf dietary choices even though she was over a hundred. It was okay before when he though it was a cultural thing. It was also weird that Azue had super bashful and shy with male personality despite being older than millenia..as if her personality would have been set in stone like one note character in high school dating sim.
All in all not much change since the previous, just less interesting chapter in the chill OPMC story.

Satou doing chill stuff

This chapter is very comfy, a nice slice of life story about the elven village. I really like the sub-plot about Satou getting in love in the first time in the new world.

เล่ม 8 นี่สีชมพูลอยตลบอบอวลเลยจริงๆ แต่เนื้อหาของเล่มนี้ยังคงเหมือนเดิมอยู่เรื่องนึง คือ “อ่านแล้วหิวจริงๆ” ต้องไปหาแกงกะหรี่กินแล้ววันนี้ ถึงเนื้อหาจะเข้มข้นในเรื่องการกำจัดศัตรูพืชของต้นไม้โลกแต่ก็ยังไม่วายใส่เรื่องอาหารเข้ามาจนคิดตามให้หิวตามได้เหมือนเคย อาจารย์ไอนานะคะ นอกจากเป็นนักเขียนนิยายแล้ว ไปเป็นนักชิมกับเขียนวิจารณ์อาหารอีกอย่างเถอะค่ะ หิว!

Finally! A character that Satou doesn't think of as too young young or daughter material. I love that he doesn't let himself fall for just anyone, but he is way too stubborn about thinking of everyone as kids. Arisa had a past life too. For all he knows she is older than him. I'm really glad he let himself be attracted to Aaze.
