Kouritsu-Chuu Madoushi, Daini no Jinsei de Madou wo Kiwameru - Vol. 8 Ch. 46 - The Title Usurpation Battles Begin

[Kyujyu]

@RigobertoParedes All the 5 mages appear last chapter to seal that battleship 😅

 

[Cendacyl]

Ngl last page kinda sexy

 

[Redoutlaw]

*See the first page* dang it this is the reason why you don't leave loose ends !

 

[Redice]

So how many people predicted the recycling of that asshole villain because he wasn't killed? lol.

 

[savris]

Ahh, good to see the girls out in the town with zeff... But first page is really the reason why I say if I see an example villian like that, rather than trap him in a overly complicated prison the he might break out of ala James bond (or Austin Powers) I rather hand out three shots of lead in the chest and two to the head and be done with it

"Only good guy take the power" Too much optimism
It's just a flag for evil bad guy return.

 

[mage_goo]

>the white world allows writing instead of immediately erasing it the same way it restores wound
good job spider-chan, now the possibility of him returning as the same boring villain is a tad more plausible

even tho an overpowered dementia-impaired villain seems more interesting

@BestBoy
He may look like a 14 year old boy but he's a stubborn old man who had his life's work and ambition denied to him at the last moment. He wants to have his moment and enjoy it for a while, even if he ends up not keeping it forever.

 

[Spoonikle]

No casualties... beyond the millions of lives lost in the half-decade long winter that followed. All the ejected material from the vaporized mountain blocked out the sun and blanketed the ground debris.

Or if the blast totally annihilated every atom of the mountain and there was almost no debris... the whole planets orbit has been altered slightly and the climate will change forever.

 

[Koremitsu_Arita]

wtf was the point of all that

 

[BestBoy]

@Amplify I just don't get why he doesn't become the greatest magician in whatever he's got the most potential for.

 

[Amplify]

@BestBoy
Becoming the best Red Mage doesn't prevent him doing that afterwards as well. He spent his entire life training to be the best Red Mage on the planet, and damnit he's going to take that title even if only for a bit.

 

[BestBoy]

@Amplify I guess "stubborn old man" is gonna have to be a good enough explanation for me.

 

[Rin2k]

Ha, this was doing somewhat okay without the Nihongo twist. Hopefully this doesn't go full Gate.

 

[Amplify]

@BestBoy
Simplest way I could put it into perspective, I guess:
Imagine for a moment that you're completely infatuated with racing, you spend your entire life training to become the best possible Formula 1 racer on the planet, memorizing every possible trick and tip to squeeze out a little more speed and race better, it is all you ever think about.
Then the time comes, you're an old man in your 70s now and finally after working your entire life for this you manage to win the biggest race in the world! You walk up to the podium to get your trophy...
and then somebody tells you that they've measured your racing skill with a device that was only just invented and found out that your racing skill is maxed out, so they're stripping you of your title and giving the trophy to second place because he has a higher potential skill ceiling than you.

You get sent back in time to when you were a child and get told that you have a godly talent for dancing - Contemporary, Jazz, Ballet, Riverdance, Ballroom, every type you can think of. Do you discard your passion for racing and become a dancer just because you have the talent for it, or do you go "Fuck that, I want my racing trophy!"?

 

[BestBoy]

@Amplify That's a great explanation actually. Thanks.

 

[SchultzD]

I'm starting to get tired of all these Japanese festival activities in OTHER WORLDS.

 

[MesaOracle]

I still ship Milly with Zeff. My boy needs to become something more like Mage of Mages in the end.

 

[TitanAnteus]

@SchultzD
Knife throwing is a normal Japanese festival activity?

 

[SchultzD]

@TitanAnteus, does changing darts or whatever throwing thingy into this knife throwing make it less Japanese with all these dishes, yukatas and catchings of goldfishes?
