Honzuki no Gekokujou

[Kraco]

I imagine the rotten knight actually wanted her to go berserk, giving him ample justification to strike her down. It's hard to say if Main could have brought down the knight first with her raw mana power, devoid of any spells. The knight might posses some defences against such simple attacks. In that sense it's good Main is slowly learning to behave, even if it's frustrating to watch scenes like this. If she ever gets powerful and influential enough, she doesn't anymore need to bow her head, but right now she's neither.

How far ahead is the manga?

The manga is quite a bit behind now.

I would assume he'd be interested in how the Light Novels are going.
