Kaiten no Albus - Vol. 3 Ch. 26 - Friends

[MondSemmel]

Auro's time-locked body being in the tower makes the Academy burning it down so much worse...

Does it? If she's frozen in time, shouldn't she be entirely immune to any outside influence?

That was the biggest foreshadow for me. IMO Albus has probably been doing this song and dance for so much longer than what is being implied to the reader. Hes probably speedrun the demon king in some obscenely short time like a couple days or weeks and has come to terms that there is no way to kill the demon king fast enough to save Fiona. So now hes looking for an alternative win condition, probably planning to borrow Gina's magic and lock Fiona in time so that when they kill the current demon king the soul can't move to her. That way they could destroy the demon king's soul without having to kill Fiona.

The headmaster's reasoning is stupid - if we're going to take that biscuit comparison seriously, and say that the ingredients to biscuits can only be; flour, water, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, then the biscuits he gave the hero were heretical.
He is stunting biscuit making, and not allowing for such innovations as chocolate chips, or jam filled, etc.

Likewise to magic. If they're so concerned about possible damage done by unique magic, then they should be EVEN MORE involved in those magical innovations, and be secretive about them, not destroy them.

So when they burned her castle in the past, they burned her too huh

I bookmarked this a while ago and started to read recently, now i'm up to date, i've been missing out on good stuff, i'll look forward to new chapters and ty for tl

 

[chaonightmare]

Oh boy, that freezing one's body in time gave me the good old vibe of...

Spoiler

Dragon quest: the adventure of Dai

and perhaps a foreshadowing for things to come.

I wonder just how many companions Albus will eventually end up with.

I suspect he'll need the full team after all, just finetuned for speed and efficiency (and happy endings all around) like a ME2 run.

This fucking manga again. Why must you do me like this

 

[Firemorfox]

Oh it's the same type of magic as Albus's rewind magic.

So I guess in the original first timeline, Gina trying to learn dimensional magic involving time to revive her master, is what lead to Albus learning "Change the World" down the line?

 

[sakurabonx3]

Since Gina is trying to learn about her master's Dimensional Magic, does this mean that it could possibly help with Albus's case in preventing Fiona's possession? Possibly? Especially with this current timeline, the tower is saved so Gina has all the records, and even finally has a chance to save her master!

Oh it's the same type of magic as Albus's rewind magic.

A crazy twist would be if the teacher is currently outside of the timeline, meaning she has seen all the loops.

No yeah I'm annoyed that Albus didn't counter that analogy.

I also feel like, Gina is apparently more powerful than anyone at the academy, this whole demon king expedition will have a huge impact on the world, can the academy adapt to all these changes?

Or should Albus and co. put developing a replacement on their to-do list?
