Densetsu no Yuusha no Konkatsu

I also went back to check if there were any tells tipping us off that this might be a trap. I couldn't find any.

Perhaps you were not looking hard enough? Allow me.

Okay. The bricks and the direction of the lighting were giveaways. I was too focussed on her due to that misdirect of her touching her hairpin.

I hope someone will finish the 4 remaining chapters.

I think this ended quite decently despite being axed. Since this might not get any more updates, a summary:
 

That is his sister man. 

 

Honestly, I think one of the largest downsides of this manga, is the fact that it is formatted in an episodic fashion. (Super long explanation as to why I think so)

 

Well done if you read all of that. I'm not saying that this is it's only downside, nor am I saying that this manga isn't good at all, but I would actually like to see a sense of continuity throughout these chapters.

naaaniiiiii???
i thought chapter 9 was the climax but i was wrong bout that. hopefully the story will improved, otherwise it will become anticlimatic.

That, on page 11, is clearly our Charlotte (we can read her thoughts, literally).
On page 14 we see trap-Charlotte (in both senses), but everything is the same. She wears the same clothes, the same hairpin etc.

Well, it would be a poor magical disguise without those details.

even the same window is there.

Those windows are not exactly uncommon in that building. On page 15, you see three on an exterior wall alone, and Douka is looking into one of the same design to see into the room. This is a moot point.

The only hint is that this Charlotte doesn't wear a worried express...

Incorrect. Look closely at how she is sitting on page 11:
#1:The cage is dark and the only illumination is from the window.
#2:She is sitting with her back to said window.

Then look on page 14.
Douka checks the room because he notices a light coming through its window, into the hallway he is in. This contradicts 1, as that implies another light source than just the window(s) on an exterior wall.
She is also turned in what would be facing the right in comparison to her pose on page 11, contradicting 2.
The floor bricks also appear to be rectangular, and their layout match a perpendicular alignment to the wall, window, and its light, further lending credence to this observation.

Wait starting from next page, she's perfectly imitating all the emotions Charlotte would feel under these circumstances...

Much like with the dress and pin, it would be a poor disguise if the mage did not also act like a captive about to be rescued would until the moment the trap is sprung.

Yeah, as far as I can tell, there isn't a single bit of foreshadowing about the Charlotte-trap other than the fact that Douka is a powerful mage and can disguise himself and Yuri says that the enemy must have a powerful mage as well, since they had to have used teleportation magic.
Other than that, it's real Charlotte in that cage up until the second Douka aproaches her and then it was a trap all along...
This manga really isn't as good as I originally thought it was.

Look harder next time.

You know, I can see now why the manga was cancelled. Consider this most recent chapter.

Spoiler

The butler could easily have taken the moment where the exiled royalty bro claimed to be royalty to give a bit of a picard speech about why he was unsuitable to be royalty, expounding on the characteristics of a good leader, and royalty bro coming back with some reasonable response about differing theories on how to run a country effectively, making his position seem sympathetic.

Instead the villain is essentially a mustache twirling bad guy with rather poor motivations. A lot of the major failings of this manga actually come back to the characters within. You actually have some great moments of character building, but there is very little which actually makes the characters interesting. So far I'd say only the Village girl really struck me as an interesting character with real motivations and possibly even a growing love of Yuri. 
That aside from Mage waif obviously....

I must admit that keeping the failed-dating-or-marriage trope interesting from chapter to chapter is really hard. The village girl is like the climax of his failure (really, god himself forbid the marriage), so the aftermath chapter will be easily become anti-climax.

This series must be short if it want focus on the marriage hunting. Otherwise, it will become a run-of-the-mill series... or worse. So, what's important is how to place the problem build-up from one girl to another, n then end it with a blast (gathering all characters into some plot is very much preferable).

But it looks like it blasted too early with the Village Girl arc...

honestly, this current girl is a major downgrade to every previous one.

I dunno... she's not bad... However, he totally should have ended up w/ the woman who he was engaged to.

That is his sister man. 

 

Yes, and?

Please no. They are both autistic enough on their own.

Shame they weren't cousins. Then the wincest seekers would have their wish.

Im confused, wasnt there some big discussion about how

that mage girl becomes his bride?

CAN SOMEONE CONFIRM SOME TRUTH?!

nobody comes between a hero and his prospective waifu, and hopes to get out in one piece

Pretty sure that's his sister, mate. Now I know (w)incest is not uncommon in manga, but I don't think this is that type of story.

As long there is a love
AGE DOESNT MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
*the siren sound came closer*

Take a seat.

6 chapters left and last volume cover spoils the ending

this manga was interesting at first, but its boring now after using the same pattern everytime   what a shame

yeah i liked it a lot at first but getting dumb Its like that other isekai manga where the MC gets rejected EVERY ARC for dumb reasons like ‘i cant leave my village’ etc lol

this manga was interesting at first, but its boring now after using the same pattern everytime

 

what a shame

Let me guess: Princess consealed her real age and thus cannot be his mate...
Also bundle of honesty is what Yuri needed...

As long there is a love
AGE DOESNT MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

After that long arc ending in failure I'm almost certain this will be a manga that ends in an extremely unsatisfying fashion.

who dat

Clearly the secret childhood friend out of nowhere that everyone forgot
