Continuing the story of cute Roman architects doing cute things, NTR, and the Emperor that lusts after his sweet, sweet sculpted body.
It takes 20 hours to dump this entire thing. How long can I keep it going? Stay tuned.

The emperor has fallen ill. But first, an anecdote.
I might take a nap while I post this, so don't expect a reply.
If it suddenly stops posting, then something terribly wrong has happened and it's up to you believers to keep it afloat until I return.
keep going OP
this manga able to make me smart
My college degree tells me that this thread will take just over 4 hours, so I will nap for 3.5

Fucking Japs.
Has the volume 2 been released in USA yet?
I own the first volume but i haven't seen new ones.
k-keep going anon!!

ARE YOU NOTFEELING RELAXED AND REFRESHED???
>>112052241
Money well spent.
>>112052311
They're all out now.
This thread will continue right into the next volume.
>>112052311
All three are out, but bookstores might not carry them anymore unless you request them.
Is there a torrent?

Get a degree, post storytime threads on /a/ for a year and work every now and then. Living the dream.
>>112052299
It wasn't the whole are more then it was probably that specific bath, and it was specifically sailors. They probably don't have any laws discriminating people from using/entering their services.
I say probably because it's big fuck all assumption especially since I've been in a hotel that prohibited japs from renting rooms. It even had a floor segregated that only women can rent.
>>112052418
just google kitty blog + manga name

>>112052471
>>>common policy of "no foreign sailors allowed" in that area
>>112052418
Yes, try the usual places.
>>112052587
I would also say to try giving Vita Arcana a shot, but I don't even know if that's still being published. I think it transferred magazines, but I don't know its publication schedule. Must be irregular, since a new tank still hasn't come out.
>>112052574
>anon in charge of not reading
>that anon is me
I'm gonna blame how late it is, my point is still partially true in that it probably wasn't that big of a deal, they just needed to go further to find a hot spring, which sucks.
but yeah I fucked up.
In other news, I would like to scan the deluxe versions of Ravages of Time, but YesAsia (the only place I can find that sells it reliably and overseas) charges $25 per volume.
I can't even remember the last time i had a good soak in a bathtub
>>112052782
Been about 2 years for meBlog: don't know if you can call it a good soak though.
4 AM, decide to soak and stay up since no bath at home and often travel, bubbles, bubbles everywhere, to the ceiling, bubbles, have to evacuate bubbles to the shower to wash them away, for about 30minutes+, bubbles.
It popped the luxury bubble I was trying to live in.
Bathtubs.
Not even once.

Is it normal for Japs to just lump all foreigners into one category or something?
>>112053376
The way they stand is absolutely adorable.
>>112053651
Yes.
>>112053724
Yes it is.
>>112053651
Too be fair, egypt during roman times was ruled by greeks, so they were fairly white
All right, for real this time, taking a brief nap. Enjoy. 219 images left for this dump, otherwise it would end in the middle of a chapter.
Going to have to go buy some caffeine gum or something.
>started out as a comedy about Roman's being thieving bastards
>turned into a self-insert Roman culture circlejerk
Why
>>112053798
Even if that's true, how is that relevant to modern day Japan?
>>112053798
She's not in Roman times.
>>112053889
Alright, sleep well. Remember people, no images in storytime threads, especially not one that's cutting this close to the image limit.
>>112053926
The hell are you talking about?
>>112053926
The author took the saying; 'when in Rome, do as the Romans do', too literally.
Too much immersion.
>>112053962
>saying it
You'll only attract the wrong crowds, even not saying it would've only led to 1-2 reactions at most.

>>112053958
Could just be that he's a foreigner and he's wearing clothing one could mistake for Egyptian clothes if you didn't know much of Egypt and since he's in an Egyptian crocodile den. Also Romans had olive skin, Egyptians can have light-ish skin. It's not that much of a stretch to assume he's one.
>>112054043
if that isn't moe, then i don't know what is
>>112053651
Probably watched too many Steve Irwins, so she must have thought that crocs + caucasian = that person is a croc expert --> + zoo = zookeeper
>>112054094
That doesn't look entirely safe.

Ceionius, stop destroying the future of the Empire with your libido!
>>112054276
>>112054160
But she specifically says the crocodile came from Egypt right before that.
Stripped 20~ pages of anecdotes, so if you want those I can either dump them at the end, or you can download the volumes yourself.
>>112053948
>Even if that's true,
it's a p liberal interpretation
afak Egypt was ruled by remnants of Alexander the Greats empire (Ptolemaic Kingdom) then it was made a Roman Province by Octavian and entered the direct jurisdiction of the Emperor, so it was ruled by the Emperor directly and not by the senat
so you could argue it was ruled by 'Greeks' but Ptolemy the I was Macedonian and the kingdom was a Hellenistic kingdom, which means it builds on the tradition of Alexander to merge 'western' (greek/macedonian) and 'eastern(persian) traditions of military, philosophy and government together
>>112054333
Excuse the image, didn't pay attention.
>>112054380
Go to bed already.
>>112054488
Just ensuring the safety of this dump. Until the next thread.
>>112054488Jeffis that you
>>112054522
>that qt Luscious boypussy
>>112054387
addendum: and since during Hadrian's period it had been and imperial province for a good 100 years it was ruled by Romans if anything (then again that is a stretchy term too since it means people who had roman citizenship and is not an ethnic term)
>>112053619
Do crocs actually like warm water?
>>112054387
>greek/macedonian
Why say the same thing twice?
>>112054921
They're cold-blooded animals that live around the equator, what do you think?
>>112054921
I'm assuming they do, tropical zones being their natural habitat and all.
I have never seen Crocs being depicted as the cold bloody monsters of the northpole.
Has anyone scanned volume 3 yet?
>>112055074
Yes.It's pretty bad. The author even admitted she didn't want to write it anymore but was forced to by her publisher.
>>112055074
Yes
>>112054960
because it's not
it may be from our modern perspective, but they were different at the time, Greece was basically a patchwork of city states with different forms of governance but a common cultural and religious ground while Macedonia was a kingdom at the peripherie of the classical greek world, only in the hellenistic period the two sort of merged, but it's not the same
sort of like you wouldn't say that Canada is US-american
>>112055189
Probably why the ending felt like shit compared to everything else.
>>112055189She should have drawn 80 pages of hot roman thermae gay orgies
I'm almost done with the other thread. Sure are a lot of phalluses in this chapter. Are they going to slip into a hot spring and surface in a seedy Japanese porn store?
>>112055337
Close enough
>>112055007
>>112054971
They sunbathe to regulate their temperature. I would think they would get in the water to cool off and hunt.
The terror of waterslides
>>112055392
A tropical river is still going to be much warmer than anything naturally found in a temperate climate. Besides, they get lethargic if they cool off too much, not the best state for trying to find prey.
>>112055392
Still don't think they like cold water.
Of course they would recreate their natural habitat when putting them in Zoos and the like.
No one said they were in the water all day either.
This is getting sillyI love it
>>112055696
Those corners look lethal.

>>112056283
Pay FOR slaves.
There
>>112056335
Maybe rented?

Yes. He's just calling a spade a spade.
>>112056359
He must have an inner ear problem.

Worst joke all thread.
At least the Cream of the crop one was good
>>112056458
Its clumsy-moe anon.
He gets a love interest right? Is the love interest Roman or Japanese?
>>112056493
just be patient, part of that is scanned already
>>112055204
If you want to look at it that way, Greece as a concept didn't exist back then, it was a sort of mini-Europe.
>>112056493
Japanese, of course.
>>112056536
All of it is scanned.
>>112056536
All of it is scanned.
>>112056493
Japanese, and it's very clearly the author's self-insert.
>>112056537
well, they did have stuff like the oracle or the games, but it was certainly not the same understanding we have today
>>112056945
That face though
>>112056945
>>112056699
>It's clearly blablabla something I don't know about even though it was mentioned in the last thread I wasn't in either
>>112056335
Roman slavery is different from most other types. From wikipedia:
Roman slaves could hold property which, despite the fact that it belonged to their masters, they were allowed to use as if it were their own. Skilled or educated slaves were allowed to earn their own money, and might hope to save enough to buy their freedom. Such slaves were often freed by the terms of their master's will, or for services rendered. A notable example of a high-status slave was Tiro, the secretary of Cicero. Tiro was freed before his master's death, and was successful enough to retire on his own country estate, where he died at the age of 99.

I'd watch it
>>112057231
their property was not only their master's it was also his decision whether they were allowed to hold one
and slaves who were in charge of heating eater were most certainly not paid
what this article is talking about mostly pertains to slaves who were educated vernae who recieved a good education from their masters and would work skilled labour or finance and not be water heaters
but whatever, they probably meant paying for the slaves' living costs anyway
