    Haiz.........satisfaction is had. Good combat chapter and it sounds like we’re gonna see something new from Van’s fighting styles. Or I’m missing the curse reference regarding his tongue. Also loved the image of his tongue being pulled out like a hose roller lol.

    there's the fix I needed. Is it just me or does Fitun rely too heavily on his authority? I feel like he should be smarter considering his successful career as a mercenary.

    I think the opposite, that he has been using it little, in this combat he has mostly used his swords or the trap skill, although on second thought, using the skills in a massive way is a very bad idea in space if you find yourself surrounded by allies although I wonder if he has a concentrated attack, and he has remained sane even in the face of Vandeliu races that had already opened openings in front of his enemies, his only mistake is to underestimate the scope of Vandeliu's monstrosity and that is forgiven him because as you said, he is a god of mercenaries , not from the adventurers, his style is based on fighting against humanoids not against a Vandeliu

    He became completely bewildered when he couldn't use thought tracing anymore, almost like all his experience was useless. He had many feats during his life which must have included dungeon conquests. True Van is an abnormality among abnormalities but to say that Fitun would be so useless without Hajime's marionette is just weird.

    I tell you, I did not expect Vandeliu to do something so drastic at all, he knew that he was thinking with the spirit, but turning off the brain and all the nerve endings is completely different, even so I hardly used that ability during the entire fight, so I would not say useless, as I said, it is a mixture in which I underestimate how monstrous Van is and how being a mercenary does not have many skills in combat with monsters, even so it shows that he is much more balanced than heinz, he has An excellent defense, even if he cannot do massive or constant damage, he knows how to break Van's defenses and can trick him and leave him incapacitated even for tenths of a second, as Vandeliu said, if he had the anti-healing or anti-death magic abilities, it would be even harder than it's already being

    Fitun’s biggest problem is that he’s a “hero” looking for a battle to die in. Japan has a bunch of those stories. Enough so that they bled into the USA and became a few Hollywood blokbusters. You’re supposed to feel sympathy for the poor hero at the start of the tale and then feel utter loathing that hero was ever allowed to breath. But author-san skipped the sympathy stage and went straight to true colors, because Fitun is a cliche.

    That probably has more to do with Norse mythology

    Norse, Greek, a lot of the real old myths are just empowered people, and people can get very stupid about stuff. He wasn't trying to have a death by Van suicide, he spelled it out himself, if he wins he's the hero of the story, and he had some fun in a true life or death battle, that he hasn't been able to experience since probably before he became a god. Unfortunately he just got a reminder that the death in this case is very permanent, if Van does it, but still hasn't thought about what happens when Van eats a god with an authority.

    But even if he's just looking for a good fight to die, that shouldn't impend his capacities and he tried to be as prepared as possible for the fight. And yet he got overwhelmed pretty quickly. Fitun should be experienced enough to fall back on his feets even with Van's unpredictability, shouldn't he?

    He's probably had his soul damaged already in the fight

    Two things:
    1. If you want to talk about spoilers, there is a thread for it. https://forum.novelupdates.com/thre...r-death-mage-raws.53163/page-707#post-5823590
    2. Use English.

    I was rereading some of the older recent chapters and came to the scene where the sun giant Talos wanted to request Van if he could name his kingdom from Talosheim to something else, and it got me to remembering some of my Norse mythology. "Van"aheim, according to a quick google search, is a world associated with the Vanir, a group of Gods associated with Fertility, Wisdom, and the ability to see the Future. Now doesn't that sound vaguely familiar?
