The real question is how this enemy can be taken down by the mana of a single human even if it is compressed to fake its amount BUT he was able to absorb a large part of the mana of the f-ing WORLD TREE without overloading.
Just HOW?!
If the mana amount was the limit then the world tree's mana should have made him explode instantly or release such a huge amount of mana that everyone capable of using mana and their grandmother would have felt it from far away - especially the ELVES living literally at world tree.
So once again, just HOW can he survive absorbing the amount of the world tree's mana but falter to the amount of a single human?
It's because that guy judges how much mana he absorbs at a time based on his own limits and anything excess, he just releases it out.
Let say that guy has 100 units of Mana, so he also limits his absorption ability to match his limit.
Even if the World Tree has like 1,000,000 units of Mana. That guy just absorbs around enough units of Mana that he doesn't overload himself and anything excess he releases it.
Like say he used 10 units of Mana, so he went down to 90 units. He then absorbs say 50 units from the World Tree and then recovers his lost 10 units, and expels the remaining 40 units from his body immediately.
And he keeps doing this continuously, so that his Mana stays topped out.
What MC did was, use say 500 units of his Mana, and compressed it too feel like 5 units.
That guy absorb it and misjudged the amount as low and kept the mana without dispelling it. So, when MC suddenly expanded his whole compressed mana, it went over the limit of that guy with just 100 units.
