too bad the only way to control ian is to brainwash him and he already traded for the necklace. targeting his mother will be a direct result of him killing 5th prince plus mages

mana heart expanded?

something new occurred... what have you done?
discovered coldwood spies
stood against the ivory tower

who could be the culprit?

for sure

Leave or I leave. They'd have no other choice but to eject her since spells just come to him

ye. what i said before was RE:ZERO keeps dying for perfect outcome based on decisions vs MC dies to learn better to make the best outcome through actions.

I'd say it's pretty close. the only difference is in RE:ZERO, he doesn't start training himself until just before the apostle of greed, whereas this is from start.
It can be said that he only trained for greed because of the same situation with this novel IE death is unavoidable and the confrontation is unavoidable for the goal they have

RE:ZERO avoids fight dies to frozen world (inaction) / dies trying to save his crush (goal) due to greed (dies to action)
MC dies to thrust guy (action) / fails to become a knight (goal) for running away (inaction)

the point where they actively participate is different, but it's still basically the same plot.
• MC dies and the world is reset.
• MC abuses this mechanic to be closer to his goal

honestly... deserved... if you won't listen to a subordinate's reasons and not be trusted, why go through the embarrassment of being an employee

you could swim 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂

Idk the chpt though... Its definitely not ch to ch

I've said it before but RE:Zero is what this reminded me of

you mean every dark souls boss on the hardest difficulty? Or maybe sniper npc on max difficulty on COD 😩😮‍💨😶‍🌫️

says who??? Every Lt I've run into is dumber than a box of rocks

this reminds me of RE:Zero except that it isn't filled with a bullshit powerless man who DOES NOTHING to change his position. At least this dude strives to learn instead of only getting through "because he made the right choice at the right time"

ROCK... AND.. STONEEEEEE

Now imagine after realizing this, knowing where the blade is going to be thrusted and still dodging "outside" where the enemy has high defense capabilities
• outside: The area where the dominant hand is. Also the area where it's easiest to manipulate a swords position which results in easer defense
• inside: The non-dominant side. Sometimes has less armor, if sword is swung into this area must be blocked with speed, stance transition, or arm.
• thrust: A hard to counter technique which pierces the enemy. Has a severe consequence of having lost momentum which stops the quick reposition of the sword for a counter if dodged.

better than closing month inventory 😂😂😂

got to chapter 3 to realize it was a slave version of konosuba where he's so OP without restrictions that it would have been better to write it as slice of life.
