DanMachi: Cheat? What's a Cheat?

Chapter 40.5 – Author's Note: "When Was the Last Time You Used Your Brain While Reading?"

Welcome to the Intermission chapter, or as you might need it: A Beginner's Guide to Reading Stories.

Before you scroll to Chapter 41 and write comments with your brain half-dead, asking, "Why's he being paranoid now?"

"Huh, why's Kaen changing so fast?"

"Feels like the MC's getting weaker tbh."

...stop right there.

Take a breath.

Grab some water.

And turn your brain on first.

I'm gonna explain this short, sweet, and crystal clear here.

I don't wanna waste time explaining this stuff.

So I'll just make a quick story so it's easy to get.

So here's the deal: there's this Level 1 adventurer who just got robbed, then a bit later gets jumped and beaten unconscious by a Level 4 hero without being able to fight back at all, in a place that's supposed to be safe(Orario)

He wakes up the next day, doesn't know who helped him, and his money's still gone.

Weird if he gets a little cautious after that, right?

He should just go back to being cheerful immediately, maybe buy some ice cream and take a stroll while greeting everyone, right?

You get it so far? If you don't understand, read it a few times.

That's it, author's signing off for now

Hope your brain comes back online before you write any comments
