Tensei Kenja no Isekai Life: Daini no Shokugyou o Ete, Sekai Saikyou ni Narimashita - Vol. 25 Ch. 73.1 - The Burned Ground Was Too Hot

[DementisXYZ]

I really hope this person doesn't wind up being some final boss type. They're just so painfully uninteresting.

rip teaf the cute boi, maybe...

That guy really has a lot of knowledge on magic. He could manipulate the lifeforce of countless people, resurrect someone, use a drone like magic for surveillance and now burn all the other people in the lab and escape through some form of teleportation.

I'm confused by his morals though. He states he doesn't kill for his own experiments but literally sacrificed Teaf and was consuming the magic power of a city's worth of people, which was killing them, for his experiment on determining if the new hero was more powerful than the resurrected hero. I guess he means that he has a purpose of saving the world justifying the sacrificed lives while I guess other lab members only have the purpose of doing more research. I mean sure, you could say that it's similar to being willing to mobilise soldiers to fight, and die, to defend the country against a threat and it's not like the true dragon is something you can negotiate with, but he's quite extreme and he's embraced the methods of the labs which involve harvesting human life indiscriminately.

Be patient. You will swallow your word with the next chapter.

it's that priest dude I think? Also good riddance teaf

 

[Tatsuya-Kai]

Wow, if Teaf is dead that’s something. Wonder how Yuuji will explain his disappearance.

Well, provided the guy wasn't the real teaf himself and the "teaf" the mc killed was nothing more than some kind of mobile shell.

 

[UncleKaos]

He is basically a james bond villian.. he just needs a cat to stroke and he is perfect.

but damn to kill people to see if he can gain any info... is damn cold.

 

[Jakeh24]

What a garbage arc, no real answers just more questions. Also teaf... reliol?

 

[BitterButter]

Mc had a thermobarrier but didn't use it to infiltrate the lab lmao!

 

[Progin5l]

RIP Teaf, bro did nothing wrong

 

[Enalis]

Thanks for the chapter

wth is with all the contradictions for this villain? "I want to see who's stronger, old hero or current hero" to "Imma boost old hero lol" then "I'm different who use people for their own experiment" but used Teal for old hero along with whole town being held hostage for curse of regeneration.

In the twisted logic of an evil utilitarian guy you could say he wanna gauge on who has the bigger gun. If the uncontrollable MC dies by a mind controlled superhuman powered by a whole city then that’s it, but if the MC survives then he can persuade him to join force (which we know it will fail, but not in the villain’s headspace).

This villian guy reminds me someone with all those humanity speeches

Spoiler: some villian

Could also be that the initial speech about "just wanting to see who's stronger" happened when the other people in that lab were still alive, and thus the villain concealed the true purpose behind his actions.
Additionally, having witnessed the MC's firepower, maybe instead of "persuade MC to join forces" the situation was more "ok good, we've got a proper chance even without all the omelettes... time to prep plan B in case something goes wrong" - or even the "clearing obstacles from the shadows" sort of deal.

 

[mangavorex]

Whoever this "mysterious villain" was can resurrect the dead, enslave saints, manipulate souls, summon world-ending dragons, avoid the most powerful spells in their universe, and also teleport at will. There's a limit to disbelief.

I draw the line at "runs a scientific experiment while actively invalidating the variables"

 

[Romisterie]

Sometimes , it made me wonder if he has "gamer mind" buff since this incident is traumatic. Even killing a criminal normally would cause some emotional respond what more here when he is forced to kill an innocent.

 

[Atrizk]

worst arc/plot ever, i think i'll drop this manga
