So, a question of UTMOST IMPORTANCE... will we get to have Ard on our combat team? >_>
See, it occurs to me that my the main character's seduction skills leave much to be desired. Currently his only option seems to be one he picked up from watching a Madonna music video (Vogue!) Sure, standing there and posing like a (sexy?) fool might work for Aunt Jessica (Ooooh, my little man! *excited parental clapping* You're all grown up now. So sexy! You'll be beating the ladies off with a stick! "Yeah, with my big sti-" Don't be vulgar, dear. "Sorry, Aunt Jessica."), but the other ladies will probably laugh at us. A lot. Hurtfully.
I figure a sexy beast like Ard has GOT to have some amazing seduction skills. Sure, we'll probably only be able to use him in battle once. The moment he uses a seduction skill every woman in the entire district will succumb to his charm, including the boss. Afterwards, all four sides of the conflict will unanimously agree to ban the use of Ard as a Weapon of Mass Seduction. He'll be declared a walking sexological disaster. Those present at the battle will begin referring to him as the Humanoid Pheromone Typhoon.
We'll probably have to forbid him from winking or talking in the manor whenever women are around. But at least the MC will be able to learn a couple new seduction skills. Of course, the skills will only be a fraction as powerful as when Ard used them. Robin lacks the concentrated manliness that Ard possesses.
Hehe, I keep playing the scene in my head, and every time I imagine Ard's and Robin's reactions to Ard using seduction it makes me giggle.
Yes, I am being needlessly silly, but it is a real question. So far we've only seen new physical skills, and Robin is desperately in need of something more than striking a pose.
