Yes! More big titty witch!

Thanks for the double update ♡

 

[Nemo2342]

Thanks for the updates!

 

[AcelJean]

There's too many companions now for another reset to occur. I'm curious how the next one is gonna go if they fail this time

 

[windfang]

another piece to the puzzle, space and time magic

Hope Gina meets Auro again.

Albus gives up on his glitchless attempts and dose a any % glitch run

So the people who were close to Albus during the past loops are starting to retain their memories… this doesn’t explain why a demon is able to do the same, and he remembers everything, not some bribes like the others. I still stand by the fact that he’s related to Albus somehow. Also this beautiful witch deserves happiness with me
Thanks for the translation

the demon seems to be able to retain memory from very first loop,
he just didn't realize it

Wow, fuck that academy!

 

[Shrimperor]

Witches are love
Witches are life

 

[Tds-PdV]

Greedy human organizations are scarier and more annoying to deal with than the demons.

Okay, I think I see where this is going:
So she's studying time travel magic, and the issue is that the hero is trying to kill the demon lord quickly enough to stop the fmc from becoming the next demon lord - I suspect that he literally can't defeat him quickly enough, as she has already been selected as the next vessel (take note of how the brother saved her from being possessed originally).

So the only way to defeat the Demon Lord is have the FMC not get possessed is to go even further back than his own hero magic allows... which the witch just so happens to be studying... hmmm.

That's my guess anyway.

She just continuing her teacher's work. Unless teacher somehow know about FMC and her brother being the cursed child.

MC doesn't know about the conditions of FMC becoming Demon Lord either. Only "faster clear speed" that he thinks he needs to do. Maybe the next loop? So, now we just enjoy the world building.

 

[ARealCoolGuy]

She just continuing her teacher's work.

Yes, but that work is specifically about time magic, which is just too coincidental, y'know?
Also, the teacher doesn't have to specifically know about the FMC... who wouldn't want to know about time travel? She was a heretical witch, of course she's studying cool stuff like that.

MC doesn't know about the conditions of FMC becoming Demon Lord either.

Not specifically, but he does know (thanks to his researcher friend in an earlier chapter) that time is of the essence, and that's why he is trying to beat the demon lord as quickly as possible. However, if she was a chosen vessel that early on, like what was shown when her brother was taken, then it's reasonable to assume she can't be saved no matter how quickly MC goes.

Tbh, I kinda feel like it's more likely that (not spoilers, but tagging anyway in case it's right):


there isn't any real "hero magic", and this isn't a matter of the new witch finishing the old witch's work, it's about her researching it and realizing it already got cast. Albus's whole time loop thing isn't divine in nature, it's the witch's spell and they're already in the time loop created by the witch.

Remember that he didn't get his hero revelation from a shrine/church or whatever, it was just a random mysterious person in a robe, who I wouldn't be surprised if it was the witch herself. Though not the one the new witch knows, maybe her own flavor of the spell is slightly different than the one she used on Albus, being a body time travel thing rather than a memory-time-travel thing.

Plus, the mages in this chapter refer to "Dimensional Magic" as "an ancient forbidden art that disrupts the order of the world". If Albus's ability (which is straight called "Ultimate Dimensional Magic - Change the World") was divine / hero-based it'd be kind of funny how they're accidentally blaspheming it then. But, if it really is just forbidden Bad Magic, which was cast on him by the witch, it all tracks.

Kinda like how the story isn't just about Albus constantly trying new speedrun strats, I feel like the new witch's story arc is gonna be about her defying her teacher with the typical "rewriting history is bad because it erases the experiences that make us Us" speech. They'll probably just succeed in saving the FMC through other means after learning more this time around, since I'd be surprised at this point if we actually do another loop.

(it's also possible that the new witch finishes the work and that she casts it on the MC at some point in this loop or something (thus being the cause of all the loop nonsense), but the specifics of how that would work out would feel substantially messier so I kinda doubt it and I don't really like that as much thematically)

CMIIW, but how can Albus got full control of the spell/skill if it's the witch's?

I'm seeing Magi flashbacks just from the grandmaster's appearance alone lol
