Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! (LN) Chapter v113 Discussion

The LN is a slight improvement over the WN in delivery. However, the author still has the annoying style of conflating narration with dialogue. for example:

Spoiler

""Well, fighting while wearing this... I wonder about that?" (Wendelin)

Come to think of it, is a circlet something a man would actually wear?

There were no men wearing circlets around me in my previous life. I'm not accustomed to wearing accessories either. I would hate being told that it doesn't suit me by those around me.

Ah, well I guess there are no people who will tell the current me straight to my face that it doesn't suit me.

But, I would hate having rumors about it spread behind my back.

"... That's the reason." (Wendelin) "

should read as

"Well, fighting while wearing this... I wonder about that?... That's the reason." (Wendelin)

With nothing in between the question mark and the ellipses. However, the author wants us to do the work of imagining the internal monologue some how parsed and spoken out loud. This is the author's unique style. The author is truly a master at being lazy and sloppy.
