Kouritsu-Chuu Madoushi, Daini no Jinsei de Madou wo Kiwameru - Vol. 6 Ch. 39 - Hunting

[Pester]

@devolth In the earlier chapters that was his plan. He was doing low risk, medium reward strategies based on farming mobs that would normally be too high level for him, but his knowledge of them made it easy. It was one of the major plot points earlier because he was thinking about why he even came back to the past in the first place if it was just to be really strong. What makes him do such really high risk stuff is because he decided to form a party with the others. He now has the goal of making the guild that he formed the best one, and the only realistic way to do so is to do extremely risky stuff because the other guilds are basically leagues ahead of them.

TLDR: He knows how to level at a fast rate and has already done so, but improving the guild overall is taking priority.

@devolth Not really paying attention to details much, but ain't the fact that they're suicidal is because he is powerleveling them with his "cheat knowledge"? It's just that this author likes traditional shounen battles where the MC is always the underdog but wins out in the end through deus ex machina, rather than the usual isekai route where the MC just bust through everything with conveniences of power fantasy wet dreams.
Consistent choreographed power struggles is just too high a level for manga, imo.

Also the guy they should have killed will be a guy that will bite their ass for not being killed.

 

[Qelix]

So the new girl is strong? Well, until the next fight or the fight after. She has to be meek to be a perfect harem addition, like the other girls too. So her powers are big to get a favorable introduction and get axe later. But I'm just guessing.

Yupp. A**hole turning up again in the manga means, that he'll cause drama. My guess is, that a power hungry association member will set him free.

 

[Kaarme]

Zeff fought amazingly poorly here. He's in no position to call Cirush inexperienced after his own lousy performance. He basically let the monkeys outsmart himself.

 

[introvertchild]

Plot Debuff. Zeff is suddenly a powerless noob because the author wants him to be in danger 😂

 

[mahtan]

Why should Zeff hurry?
Let stupid people reap the consequences of their stupid decisions...

 

[mahtan]

@Kaarme
Well yes but fighting while protecting someone that has no capacity to defend themselves or while the oponent has a hostage is hard and limiting so it is hard to say is Zeff fought badly or did the best he could in the situation.
Alas it is my opnion that he should have forget about the girl and just fought like she was not there and let her die if it gets to that but...

 

[mismarca]

At the same time.. your master is doing other shit and have no time for your help XD

 

[jokerxhisoka]

she can do that as a lvl2 but the beastmen race declined? contradicting much?

 

[Liquidxlax]

@jokerxhisoka probably mean the average strength of beastmen has gone down. Even said purebreeds are strong which the red hair and eyes show or something like that

 

[Kaarme]

@mahtan He's supposed to be an old man's soul in a young body, yet he was getting distracted and hesitating all the time during the fight. Forget about the big ape, he even the let the small fries surprise himself. Then he failed to lose them despite being able to teleport. That suggests he was teleporting only in a straight line. Afterwards he didn't even notice when that hulking, wounded thing caught up. I'd be able to forgive this if he was a genuine teenager as well, but he's in fact a decades old battle scarred veteran.

 

[mahtan]

@Kaarme
Yeah, I put the blame more on the authors of isekai/reincarnation type stories than in the character itself.
They more than often forget that the character is suposed to be an adult and has the character acting stupid because "it is how a child would act", I have that problem in a lot of other stories and just didn't thought much of it here because at least the Author gave Zeff an acceptable excuse to his stupidity in this situation, that being having to protect someone that is already a hostage while being tired of teleporting all the way to the forest.
You are correct that he should have dealt with it better but at least there is an acceptable reason for it to have gonne so poor. It's different from his past failures so far that happened because he was stupid without any excuse for it like the fiasco at the training point with the demons.

 

[Lanfear]

sexy beast woman, attack me savagely oh ho ho ho.

 

[Ironclad]

Feels rushed

 

[Eviltwinq]

>MC doesn't act like a veteran old man
yeah and Donald Trump is a 73 y/o president,
forget the fact that he's a 73 y/o,he doesn't even act like a president.
so what's your point?

 

[breizh]

I’m surprised that they found the giant ape so close to the edge of the forest

 

[sketches]

She needs SSJ2

 

[OsoJr]

@Eviltwinq it's really just a common person's stereotype of an old man being a sort of sage or something. As if he's suppose to be void of emotions or something because of his old age, and hold all the wisdow the world can provide, despite the reason for his reincarnation is because of a mistake he made. Those people need to forget the idea of him being old somehow being related to the way he should act or how his personality works.

Yes, he more than likely has a ton of experience in battle from his past life, but how the fuck do you want him to apply that in a weaker and younger body? Also, just because he has ton of experience, doesn't mean he can just somehow recreate any or all possible solutions for any problem he faces in battle. The giant, physically superior ape, and 3 of its henchmen are holding his friend hostage. There's literally nothing of what we know he can do that can resolve this situation. It's like expecting a senior war veteran to somehow be the best soldier because he's been in the army for so long. No, he just survived for that long. He's been in countless battles, but it doesn't mean he has the answer to every battle scenario, just that he's used to certain scenarios.

 

[bradek]

This fight make it look like they are the same size. Dammit, another cockroach.

 

[gaigous]

Finally a beast girl with a mature sexy design, there's been too much cutesy moeblob in the harem for my tastes.
