The Spring 2024 Light Novel Guide

Somebody seems to have deleted my last post so perhaps I shall rephrase.

Quote:

There is a real effort made to show that the demons aren't just another race, too – they keep slaves, whereas humans don't appear to.

I hope that the reviewer isn't implying that the practice of slavery, abhorrent and evil as it is, I'm and of itself makes one group inherently less of a people than another. I think that would miss the point entirely, when we learn in that very volume that even something as terrible as the night elves' fanatical hatred towards and love of torturing the forest elves is a learned behavior taught to their children, not a natural characteristic making them not "another race".
