Tensei Kenja no Isekai Life ~Daini no Shokugyou o Ete, Sekai Saikyou ni Narimashita~ - Ch. 81.1 - The Curse of the [Lab] Birthed a Dragon

[unnamederror]

Surprised at seeing 30 pages for a N.1 chapter.


You can read "My House is a Magic Power Spot" for that - she even makes heart eyes.

nah that one is a trash, the author is a woman, and didn't know what the male readers wants

Hellfire of Demises cannot be done indefinitely, though, and Fireballs aren't enough to stop it unless it's in the much earlier phase, and he needs to spend this time recovering so he can take it out all at once. If you didn't notice, it accelerates every cycle it gets rebooted, going very quickly to begin with but has become even faster at regenerating, too.

Negatives are important to consider because of how many Hellfires of Demises and other forbidden-tier spells he can cast of that level before his mana goes into the negatives, and then how many from that before he goes further. He's treating it as a True Dragon fight, not just paltry curse removal. The slimes reading up on the hidden room is to check for any useful secondary information, not to find some key to defeating it for good or anything; he just needs apply more cowbell, and for that, he needs to conserve and replenish mana.

I don't understand what you mean by spending time recovering. From fireballs? No, that's infinitely spammable. And I'm not suggesting anything stronger.

As you yourself said, fireballs are perfectly fine for mopping up the curse at it's earlier stages, so that could be done forever. And if he did it smart, like I suggested, and used the 16x boosted ones which aren't any more expensive and are as strong as Hellfire of Annihilation that could kill off the 9 dragons stage just fine, it wouldn't even need to be cast that often. Mana regen would be virtually unimpeded, leaving space for trying out other magic no problem.

And no I didn't notice any acceleration, where are you even seeing it? Yuuji didn't notice anything like that on the initial restart before fighting the lab members, then while he fought them for a while it slowly reached the 9 dragons stage and after restarting the process again it took two whole statements about time passing and a fade to black time skip to get back to the 9 dragons stage again. Didn't look any faster at all, and if anything, the second restart was slower, since the first creatures to be spawned were smaller and weaker.

The point about conserving mana for big spells is moot, since my whole idea is about conserving and even recovering it, I never once suggested anything that would drain it. And it is just curse removal as long as he stalls the curse's progression and doesn't let it evolve, which from the look of things could be done indefinitely.

It's a bit different. Dispel Ultimate just went through the huge curse producing the calamity dragon, as if it wasn't even recognised to be a curse. Whereas with The curse spell they used on themselves to kill Yuuji wasn't of the same caliber (I assume they created it, whereas the calamity dragon curse they reproduced from books) and Dispel Ultimate did interact with it (make it go white, eradicate individual lab members in curse form). It's possible that spamming Dispel Ultimate could have done something, but it's also possible that he would have just been wasting his mana. Even before, with smaller versions of the curse poison cloud, dispel ultimate made some changes to the curse, but didn't ultimately get rid of it.

In any case, he assumed that the curse gets entirely consumed to generate the calamity dragon and it appears that he is correct, so he'll basically be trading dealing with the curse producing the calamity dragon with dealing with the calamity dragon directly. I don't think that'll be easier but hey, just as he's got plot armour, the dragons have plot armour until they appear.

I don't believe he used Magic Analysis on the calamity dragon producing curse though. It seems like that should have been done to try and figure out if Dispel Ultimate was doing anything or if there was another weakness.

I suppose that's true, but a lot of these curses tend to just need to be hit harder and harder til they get dispelled. I'm willing to bet if he spammed Dispel Ultimate through his Holy Attribute slime it would start having some kind of effect.

well, at least slibird's chubbiness doesn't seem to affect it too negatively lol
