Hyouken no Majutsushi ga Sekai o Suberu - Vol. 2 Ch. 12 - Mentor

@Sugarbeef
Fatal still works in the context. While the most popular definition is correlated with something dying, the less popular definition is an adjective for a disastrous or devastating thing/event

Death flag?!

Looks like mahouka's sorcery booster

- Organization that nicks talented people brain for their own use
- Mentor is one of the talented people
- Lost the title, but maybe still powerful
- Lost her mobility already
- Signs of Death Flag

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? XD

And here i thought there was a bigger reason as to why he shouldn't use his full power, like a curse or something, not just the Pride of Nobles sht. That "ok, do as you wish" was a bit of a let down.

I was actually pretty refreshing. The series as a whole so far goes really fast time wise, even reading it to this point didn’t take long. Some of the chapter felt wasteful though.

This chapter screams death flag to me

 

[Hoezell]

Mentor best girl no die

 

[steenscp]

[mrmoooose23]

I used to be the iceblade magician like you then I took an arrow in the knee.

 

[KINGwaldo]

If the death flag was any bigger it would illuminate the planet like the sun

 

[shrike]

This is old-school wholesome

 

[KingRift]

That death flag was raised higher than America's covid cases.

 

[Milanin]

Q: Face hugger or brain taking organization...
A: Honestly, I choose neither and skewer them both

White roses, aren't those flowers for a grave?

 

[Bloddrake]

That fucking flag tho... Secret group takes brains of magicians in combination with bring your friends next time, she dead.

 

[Xaintrix]

Real shame, like the character a lot already.

 

[Grerutin]

ummm, do they know what a 'fatal wound' is? because..... she is still alive...

 

[Dulkia]

@Decyphrs Since you started with all the etymology talk, I'm gonna add that "eu" means good/great in Greek, and genes actually meant race/lineage (although as we all know it stands for genetics too). So eugenics stand for "great lineage" or something.

 

[IsseiTheOppaiMaster11]

Thanks for the update, please continue translating this manga really love it. Thank you translators.

@Grerutin The wound story can be understood as a wound that almost was fatal and that would have killed someone was barely less resilient meaning a grave almost lethal wound that the teacher barely survived.

One way to think about is that a bullet to the brain is a fatal wound, but there are a little number of cases of some people barely surviving it. They suffered a fatal wound(or a wound that should have been fatal by any accounts), but haven't died of it, barely surviving.

I know it's not super accurate but it does make some sense in literature if the "fatal wound" is also used as a stylized exaggeration to sell the gravity of the wound and by how close to death the person was without writing a few whole sentences like I did.
