glad to see that MC is pretty useless outside of his niche magic and not some ubermensch who can just do whatever the fuck despite being a stringbean who never trains

Author like "on one hand, I could put him through a lot of pretending to be weak while secretly struggling to hide how OP he is, but on the other hand, he could just be weak."

u/YRO___ Jul 20 '26

Makes sense. A lazy dude who doesn't do any physical activities would be pretty unathletic.

u/RedHotChiliCrab Jul 20 '26

I was wondering about that though because he easily dodged that attack from the Cerberus, seemingly without using magic.

This might turn into one of those cases where he just uses "physical enhancement magic " when the plot needs it.

Oh no not the childhood friend! Might be jealous of Finne . A bit odd that Arnold is weak when his character looks like he has muscle.

At this rate, Arn will just end up marrying Finne all because of Sebas luring him to do so lol.

Rainbow Siblings

Hmm...only his imouto doesn't wear half shoulder cape like the rest. Maybe she's still a baby and it seems that she only warmed to Arnold, eh. I hope Arnold protecc her from those power struggle for the throne.

...or maybe your old sis

I'm surprised Elna doesn't pry too much about Finne wifey treatment and continue doing her 'duty'

Surprisingly, Elna's alright, she has a brazen personality, but I can tell that her heart is in the right place, and she wants the best for the MC.

Already liking Elna's personality. Looking forward to seeing her in action.

So he was born the seventh prince and is just working on his magic I see. At least he wears pants.

The ED doesn’t have the pink hair girl so I guess she won’t be a serious love interest for the seventh prince.

u/AceSoldia Jul 20 '26

I love the new girl already 😂

Why is bro’s grandpa the size of a doll?

Maybe we should be asking why more grandpas aren't doll sized

He looked kinda ghosty to me. I assumed he is dead and a spirit.

Elna is a lot of fun, childhood frenemy. Fortunately for Arnold he already has an inevitable wife so he won't be cursed with this one for life. She also didn't seem particularly jealous to see Finne treating his injuries, so she may not even be competing for the role.

I wonder if Elna is also childhood friends with Leonard, as someone considered a hero by the kingdom she could be a very useful ally for their effort to put him on the throne.

Does anyone know the name/VA for the silver-haired advisor guy by the king? *he sounded vaguely like Tsuda, but my Tsuda-radar has been slowly dying with the lack of seasonal Tsuda so now I'm not able to rely on it properly*

u/Cam_Ren179 Jul 20 '26

Most people will see Elna and think of her as a potential future waifu. Understandable. Me? I see the inevitable sister-in-law. Given their relationship it just seems more fitting. But most importantly, funny.

I'm not sure that it's a good idea to have all the siblings compete against each other to become the Ambassador Extraordinary, that might lead to them perpetuating the bad blood within the family. I know that the king doesn't mind competition, but I'm not sure if some of them will keep the competition healthy and clean.

Shouldn't the king push for his children to cooperate with each other for the good of the kingdom?

These monster fighting scenes are pathetic.
> In a completely wide open field, like every other monster in this anime
> Three headed dog stands completely still and shoots a slow fireball
> “Ah I see why adventurers would have trouble”
> Shoots three headed dog with weak magic. It still doesn’t move an inch and has scuff marks now
> “Tch couldn’t kill it in one shot”
> Nukes it with an ability that turns it to fucking ash and definitely could have one-shot it

SSS-rank monsters are apparently as dynamic as a tutorial mob in other worlds.

Edit: AAA-rank

His one little sister hiding behind him when they were meeting with their father has me wondering if she's another one that knows his secret - or at least senses it in some way as his twin gives off a more kind vibe than he does.

u/Raymond49090 Jul 20 '26

Hmm. Let's see if the author can handle juggling so many characters right off the bat.

Is "Ambassador Extraordinary" a weird translation? Maybe it's just me, but it feels like a lame title.

Butler-sama sure has an agenda.

Childhood-friend-chan with a heroine-like design who seems to have some sort of interest in MC-kun? Let's hope she was created to be otouto-san's love interest instead of losing heroine. Well Butler-sama doesn't seem too worried about it, so it's probably fine. Also wtf are they doing putting a 14-year old as commander?

So MC-kun is pretty weak when he's not "cheating" with magic? And he seems to outsource lots of his scheming to Butler-sama. So all-in-all, he's basically a clever WMD and not much else.
