dam u Fer I wanted to finish that sentence >:C

Six and a half.... is the half the penguin? :B

I think that's money from getting them freed without injury, so add another 6.5 million to the total reward.

No... she's talking about how many slaves were freed. She's counting the penguin as half because while he was not TRULY a slave, he was basically as stuck as any of the slaves were at that point.

He's also a smol.

And those two girls will have him buried in snu snu and calling for water even before3 the report started!
So one foot in the grave! ^.~

Smol? He's darn near pocket sized!

Or because pingus are so short.

one point five million??? holy shit... that's a lot of dough...

i mean, yeah, most of it goes to the freed slaves but still... 500.000 for the temple? dayum... not bad... not bad at all...

Depends on the exchange rate… or the base value of the Runei…
How much does an average loaf of bread cost in Runei?

one million /s

About three Runei.

Then yeah, I’d say that 500,000 is a lot of dough. I mean, even at three Runei, at that price you could buy an awful lot of bread…

a decent loaf of bread here costs $7 here.
so that's about 1 million for the temple in USD.
not bad for a girls night out

And that’s why I asked for bread… not as a pun on ‘dough’, but because it was a common item to compare.

Cheers.
That gives a good comparison based on the price of bread.
So a Runei would be between $1.50 and & $2.00 $AUD.

About tree fiddy? ^.^

I consider myself valuable. XD

Omg...

yup. It's fun to have a laugh that a name I've been using since before like 2008 for internet things... is cash money in Feretta's comic. XD

You are very valuable my friend, don't let people compare you to bread.

haha XD

Make no mistake: Bread is very valuable.

Hmmm
Wonder what will happen next with the dragon lady...
O.o
Let's find out

Let the scolding commence! (and with scolding i mean spanking of red panda butt!)

She'd like that. The worst punishment?

She'd be forced into celibacy!

Bring forth the chastity belt of punishment!

is it an everlast?

I get it...

And the biggest question: WHO HAS THE KEY!?

... call the locksmith!

Common misconception, but casualty includes both injured and dead, not just dead.

I don't think she counts the slavers as casualties. Usually in these sorts of situations, it applies to the friendlies or freed.

She said "no injured or casualties"

It's redundant; if there are no casualties, then there can't be any injured, because casualties includes injured..

Technically you are correct. However in modern reporting of this type, they regard the term casualty as strictly referring to fatalities, or life threatening injuries.

It is a common misconception, yes.

That's what I said.

I think she's only referring to the status of the freed victims, not her own burned shoulder (ugly, but it definitely did not put her out of the fight)

She said "no injuries or casualties"

ie, "no one was injured and no one was injured or killed"

Oof, Mis looks..less than amused

Hoping for a forgiving hug or a tearful "I was so worried", fearful of a "You're hereby exiled from the temple".

Seriously doubt it's the latter. Between the fact that there was a mention that "they have a procedure" for this stuff in earlier pages which implies she did this before, plus the fact she sort of says she's not going to do this again/anymore (the "it's done, he was the last" comment) I think there's a sort of vague/shaky understanding between the two that Lamb needed to do this, and as much as Mis might not approve and wishes her student would deal with their trauma in a less violent and dangerous way, she strikes me as a very understanding sort.

I hope you're right! I don't 'think' she's gonna exile Morgan, I'm just afraid of it, haha.

She's not. She's just going to punish Lamb for not listening and going off on her own.

So a chastity belt.

So they were planning to deal with the Slavers anyway?

Well, naturally. But with a plan, not one person going off half-cocked.

No injuries or casualties? Lamb… are you not including yourself? Pretty sure you were injured.

No. She's only talking about the freed slaves. And they were minor injuries for Lamb.

I think Mis is mostly angry that Morgan ran off -- again -- without telling anybody. I mean, she's justifiably angry at slaving in general and that specific slaver in particular, but there was no plan of attack. Just one plan: attack. If those slavers were any more prepared or vigilant or just not so amazingly arrogant that they thought they could take on one person that took out half their soldiers before they knew what was going on, then Morgan would have been history. But she keeps getting results.

When you think about it, even without the slavers being more prepared, if Fen wasn't sent after Morgan, the slavers would've been at a standstill with hostages inside that cave and Lamb outside of it until something happened, probably resulting casualties. So yeah she did put those slaves lives at risk by going in alone without a plan.

I think her plan was just 'kill them all before they can do anything'.

And you know what they say about plans upon first contact with the enemy.

Dont underestimate the deeply traumatized, best example is, Bruce Wayne.

ah, the man who calls himself batman when he's talking to himself in his head.

In one episode of Batman Beyond, we find out he calls himself Bruce Wayne in his head.

Because Bruce is the mask, not Batman.

I didn't say she wasn't capable, I just said that she didn't plan. She's lucky Fen was available for backup, Tamusa was unprepared/thought he could take her through sheer numbers (even as he saw her take down two of his men in front of him), and that her very thorough elimination of any previous slavers prevented them from generating stories about her.

TBH, it ended up being much easier for her than I figured it would be. I didn't think Tamusa would be so clueless and weak.

I suppose preying on the vulnerable and never facing anybody he couldn't successfully bully will do that. I think Fer said elsewhere that but for Morgan, nobody's ever stood up to him or caused him any kind of loss.

Yeah, she pretty much made it up on the fly, while Batman...
When Batman's plan A fails, he still has B, C, D, E, F, G and so on.

I'd guess we're dealing with a non-fractional currency like yen (ie it only has the main currency no cent or other part curreny) so for easier math let's drop 2 zeros since currency like that tens to be to the nearest hundred so 15000 in bounties, set aside 3000 for reasons I'll outline in a sec that's 1000 a head per slaver with and the ringleader being 4000. Yeah that seems to fit into what you'd think of when seeing a bounty out for people like that.

I love how she corrects herself from 6 to 6.5 due to Penguin. <3

With that stance in the fourth panel… plus, “report”? This seems to be almost like a commanding officer getting an update from a subordinate solider, fresh back from a sanctioned mission… oh. Could this have been planned by Miss?

Read down. Mis had a plan to get the slavers... but lamb just ran off.

I still feel like this is too early to close on the slavers...are they really the last? Or is she implying this is the last time she pulls a stunt like that?

The last of her named targets.

So you are telling me her book of grudges is now empty?

Yep.

Out of curiosity, would have Mis have done something about the slavers in her territory if Morgan had given her the time? If she had Fen deal with the bandits, then her dealing with the slavers would seem to be especially important to Mis?

She would've sent out a team to ambush them on the road once they started moving again. Lamb jumped the gun.

I know Mis is the farthest person ever from Gunnery Sergeant Hartman... And yet, this page make me think so much to the first half of Full Metal Jacket!

That's...a high volume for a bounty. Most hunters don't get even six figures like that.

Most hunters don't take out twelve slavers in one go.

Touche, esteemed artist

given the slavers in question, i suspect the prices on their heads were high because they had been operating for a very long time without being caught.

She's quite efficient and thorough...

She's just standing there....MENACINGLY!

I do love how Tildriel has a look in the 2nd panel that says “please go easy on her”

Dragon boobs get larger with rage?

Well, she can shape shift. So rage has got to be held somewhere :p

"Rage is stored in the boobs."

"Jesus, why are you a ZZ cup?"

"It was just an illusion! Like push-up bras or stilettos!"

I think i know where this is going....
She's getting a angry warning but also headpets because she freed the other girls and herself finally.

Eleven... wait... there wasn't that many, was there? Is she tallying past, uh "encounters"?

when Fen met up with her she'd attacked them and they'd retreated into the cave, creating a standoff. i'd guess that Lamb picked off half the slaver group one at a time before they retreated. the slavers probably didn't realize they were only facing one person at first.

Oh, right. I... kind of remember something about that.

Mis is so mad, she is the most clothed we have ever seen.

Love how the "sex at home" still looks so cute and sweet at this point.

Soooooooo

Should I panic

I have to say 1.5 million, damn that a lot of monies. with money like that. who need a normal job when you can just take down some bad guys and you are all set lol.

Lamb saying, "I just made the temple 500k, killed a few slavers, and saved half a dozen people. You're welcome," would probably get her ass yeeted through a wall or an imprint of her face molded into the temple floor.

Naughty lamb go to your room -pretty sure this is the only punishment lamb will get

With Til trundling along behind.

The wind makes this scene chilly. And I mean the whole situation, not only under Mis' skirt.

jup they have done that before.

"It's...done"

until some wandering necromancer says "hey, lets make some zombies!"

You screwed up and done good! Sometimes personal vendettas pay off for everyone.

Well, she did deal with a problem that Mis was already apparently planning on dealing with. Morgan just jumped the gun and charged in before Mis was ready. So there's a bit of "well, at least I don't have to deal witb that anymore." But also, "I had a plan for this, and your insubordinate ass just charged in without bothering to consult me."

I now understand: Mis has that big tail to counterbalance that titanic rack. Or is it the other way 'round...

We can just skip out the gory details 😓

Hmmmmmmmm.

❤️❤️❤️

Wow Misalia has a profile.
