Even Though I’m a Former Noble and a Single Mother, My Daughters Are Too Cute and Working as an Adventurer Isn’t Too Much of a Hassle

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

The noble class that treats those born with white hair or heterochromia as treacherous snakes, Shirley was born into the family of the most powerful duke in the land adorned with stunning hair the colour of snow, and non-matching red and blue eyes.

Hated by her own family, and having the only man who she ever loved snatched away by a jealous younger sister on her wedding night, she is imprisoned on false charges.

Enduring torture and humiliation, she vowed to take revenge against those who wronged her. But, even though she escaped, in her belly there was the child of her former fiancée.

Even if the man himself is hateful, an unborn child is without sin. After giving birth to healthy twins, she thought to leave them at an orphanage for safekeeping, but…

“Ah, what to do, my daughters are just too cute.”

Shirley was floored by the feelings she held for the two girls she had brought into the world. Choosing motherhood over revenge, she fled the Empire and settled in a remote town in the neighbouring Kingdom. In order to support her children, she found herself entering through the doors of the Adventurers Guild. It would be nice if they could live a nice quiet life out here, where the empire won’t think to look for them…

“Miss Shirley! Calamity-class monsters are appearing in the Kingdom! Can you help us!?”

“I’m very sorry, but I have to decline. I’m helping my daughters with their homework today.”

After ten years, she had somehow become known around the world over as “The Demonic White Sword”.

I love this series. The setting is pretty interesting, nothing special, and pretty simple, and its real appeal is the characters. The MC’s OP to the max, dense as a black hole and as dotting a mother as there ever was. To see her manipulated through or by her daughters is hilarious, especially when it’s The Golden Witch leading her around. The daughters are quite sweet and also quite funny, especially in the 2nd half of the series as they play a larger roll with their spirits and Demon King’s... more>> daughter. The villains are ridiculous and quite hateful. They’re also very arrogant and s*upid so they are constantly decimated by protagonists. There’s enough real violence, cruelty and brutality in this world and its characters that it doesn’t come off as fluff or hopelessly optimistic. There is no making friends or winning over your enemies, as no one is not that nice or foolish. But a lot of fun. <<less

I would give this story a higher rating if Canary stopped sexually harassing the Shirley. I understand that the author has repressed desires and all that, but it’s getting ridiculous. Not only that, but then Shirley just goes along with it, even though she’s embarrassed to the point of tears, all because she’s an “overly-doting mother, ” which im calling bull on. Overall, these situations that continuously pop up have ruined the story for me, so two star rating.

First of all there are a lot of idiots shipping Kyle with the MC do not expect that to happen this is a novel about a woman taking care of her children it’ll never happen. This is about a extremely broken overprotective protagonist taking care of her children it is filled with sweet fluffy moments after the beginning again no romance don’t expect any. There will be face slapping and it’ll be funny you will be disgusted by her sisters behavior try not to be too grossed out by how... more>> many men have been inside her. <<less

The story is cliche, a foolish man cheats with the protagonists' little sister, dies, Tada, boom, the protagonist awakens with a mysterious power. She pledges revenge to the man when suddenly, she gives birth to two beautiful daughters and they lived happily for 10 years. That's where the plot starts, and when the protagonist reveals herself to the very world everyone says 'WOW!' for her limitless power and charm, just like the title implies.

People say that a story without flaws is a good one. I say this is one of... more>> the kind.

Not so original, but readable.

You want the type of story where there's strong female lead with no romance in it? Guess this story is for you. <<less

The idea had potential, but the actual story suffers from the author rushing the plot forward and inconsistent world building. Which is a shame because you gets the hints in the story of what it could have been.

Pretty fun story. Not elite by any means, but definitely better than your average story. Pretty wholesome most of the time. There are moments where the plot/writing is a little klunky, but overall it's not much of a detriment to the story as a whole.

I'm honestly rather befuddled by some of the bad reviews here - a lot of them seem like extremely pointed reviews rather than an evaluation of the story as a whole, and even then they misconstrue a lot.

Anyways - It's worth a read.

Many of the negative reviews often blow the problems or would be problems of the story out of proportion. Like the one where someone is all up in arms over the guild master making the MC dress up like a maid in public. She's not sexually harassed and even the comments are kept to a minimum, and the thing as a whole passed by clearly enough that there was no real problem, and the guild master even gets punished by it from her family for having her fun which is... more>> part of her character, while it also being clear that she's not heartless or anything. Plus, the other adventurers absolutely are not that horrible to the MC, and it's stated that part of the bad relations between them is the fact that she's basically a terrifying bit*h to them for no reason, what with the way she sends out killing intent.

The younger side character who admires the MC is also not that bad, and in fact serves a good contrast to many characters the MC, and also the people who betrayed her, as he's both younger and less experienced. Not only that, but his age isn't all that much of a problem as you look at the setting and personalities (really, if you have read Mushoku Tensei, this is much less scandalizing). Plus the MC has much less reason to interact with an older character.

This is most certainly not Goblin Slayer 2.0, though like many non isekai Fantasy stories they share certain elements. However, both stories are so wildly different that you'd only assume this if you read the first ten chapters and never read any further. Even so, it should be clear from the start that this is still a much lighter story. Some people want to see the "normal" problems of a struggling mother in need for money, but that isn't this one and it didn't really build up to be that kind of story given the Fantasy setting <<less

It was hard to tell from the outset whether this was going to be adventure with adorable family shenanigans or adorable family shenanigans with adventure, and even at the end of volume one I wasn't really sure which was the intended focus. Which is good if you enjoy both, but the adventuring didn't really land for me, so I ended up only being able to enjoy it around half the time.

I give it as an average story because their is some good ideas but burned by a s*upid begging and a the worse fantasy world which doesn't make sense in many ways.

The begging which remained me with "Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter", where one woman (i.e. The MC sister here) can swap the heart's of men and make them her followers by using an angelic look and behaviour. In this story is much worse since the MC didn't harsh her sister like the other story but did all her... more>> may for the people with work that all admire and know which makes her a saint compared to her sister that slept with all the men and they knew that. So how do they think a sl*t woman is an angel in a world of nobles ?! Plus they have a magic to find lies why didn't they use it ?

More over if they live in a world with different creatures like elves and demons, why they harsh her of her looks and why the idea of strong women in such a fantasy world is strange in her country ? It feels like two world combined together with the worst scenario. Like mixing the Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter with globin slayer. <<less

I don't know why there are so many hateful comments for this story... the first ones I read were all 0 or 2 star ratings with rather scathing words and spoilers... I didn't read the comments until catching up so the spoilers were or no consequence. I genuinely enjoyed it, and although there are parts I don't agree with... more>>

(as mentioned with the deceitful acquisition of labor in a previous comment)

[collapse]
please remember it is a fictional world, and the author probably meant nothing by it other than to develop characters and provide some levity. The newer comments are more positive, which I found refreshing. I hope the author and a translator pick this up again soon, as it's been a few years now with no news... <<less

This is a good story, a little different from what I expected, but fun nonetheless.

It's great that the story isn't overly reliand on cringe humor or repeat jokes. sure the MC is a little overly doting, but often in new and entertaining ways.

I also like how the author wrote a character that is just made to be hated without it being a villain. It makes you feel sympathy for the fact that the MC has to put up with this.

Great that the characters are not mary sue's, each of them... more>> has their flaws and insecurities that make them human.

Its just anoying how the story goes on hiatus halfway in an arc...

I hope someday this story is continued. <<less

It seems enjoyable. I think I'd prefer the manga over the LN. Yes, FL is OP and ML? ... more>>
Spoiler

at this point he's just 15.. so idk if he'll really be the one

[collapse]

I like reading through the advebture and the guild "slice of life" but after finishing the 2nd volume I can't feel the enthusiasm to continue reading it because there's a lot of arcs that don't necessarily tether off to ONE main plot.. So at this point, it looks like the story is going nowhere..

It has the usual elements of an ecchi manga with a supposedly strong FL but blushes when teased...

But, it's readable and fun so go on and enjoy. Btw TL did a great job!! Thanks!! <<less

It’s a plot trap. Dont let the synopsis of this novel fool you. Its actually more story for the boring adventurers, of course the OP mother you can only see her in the story just like 20% if total write-up at the end chapter of each arc.
