The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Hiroto Amamiya is an Ordinary High-School Student whose life has been an endless string of misfortunes, starting with the death of his parents when he was a child. This finally comes to a head during a school field trip, when the boat he's on gets caught up in a terrorist bombing and he dies trying to save a girl he barely knew. Afterwards, Hiroto awakes to find himself and one hundred other passengers on the boat, including the girl he had tried to save, being offered a chance by a god of transmigration named Rodcorte to to be reincarnated on another Magitek-based world called Origin.Unfortunately for Hiroto, his second life is even worse than the previous one, with him being used as a human guinea pig for inhumane experiments into death magic, before finally encountering his end at the hands of the other reincarnated passengers. Appearing once more before Rodcorte, he learns that both he and his killers are meant to be reincarnated again. However, to prevent him from taking revenge, Rodcorte curses Hiroto before sending him off, hoping that he will commit suicide or die quickly.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Born for the third time on the High Fantasy world of Lambda, as a dhampir named Vandalieu, Hiroto resolves to live a fulfilling third life using everything at his disposal, including the death magic he gained in his last life, as he doesn't want to find out how much worse being born a fourth time could get.The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time (Commonly abbreviated as Death Mage) is a 2015 Web Serial Novel created and written by the author Densuke and published on the site Syosetsu.

Jurizanapipe, the Evil God of Degeneration and Intoxication, takes the form of the female elf Lissana after reincarnating.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_115b9907	comment	Insect monsters are said to be untamable due to lacking any form of intelligence. While it's not clear exactly how intelligent a normal cemetery bee is, they do communicate with each other, possibly to the point of being a fully fledged language even if it's based on their antenna and Quinn in particular is capable of complex conversations, though we never hear what she says directly until she becomes a Gehenna bee. Meanwhile, Pete is capable of understanding speech and commands. While it doesn't seem to be as intelligent as a person, it's definitely not mindless. The true reason insects seem to be untamable appears to be the other reason given in that they perceive the world very differently, have different senses and different mental structures.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: As Evil Gods are alien gods from a world not even close to our own, they tend to have unearthly and/or hard to understand forms, from multi-headed dragons to wiggling masses of tentacles. Demon King Guduranis may be the weirdest of all, as after he was ripped into Ludicrous Gibs at the end of the Demon King War, the still living pieces of his body began mutating into various random organs of whatever creatures happened to be in the environment around them! Van's Soul also applies as even other Evil Gods have a hard time looking at his Soul because of how warped it is, especially after having convinced several parts of the former Demon King that he is the main body which has affected ALL parts he has yet to find into seeking him out.

There's a special Katana Techniques skill separate from Sword Techniques that allows acquisition of rare jobs like samurai, but the 'katanas' in question are actually zanpato, also known as horse slaying swords: They're swords so large and heavy that supposedly you could kill a horse and their rider in one blow. Only very large and powerful races like large build arachne can wield such weapons and smaller arachne use actual katanas, which aren't indicated to be different from normal swords.

There's also no limit to the amount of affinities a person can have, so there are those like Zandia with affinities for fire, wind, earth, water, light, time, space and life magic. However, there is one exception: Death attribute is related to the life attribute and has a lot of overlap, but someone with the Death attribute will have no affinity for the other types of magic even if a god goes out of their way to try to give them that ability. Vida tries to allow Van to use life magic only for his Death attribute to just gobble it up.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_19bbe39c	comment	No Macguffin No Winner: The Scylla already had basic territorial rights in the Sauron duchy and allied with Iris's resistance movement, which fought so well that Sauron could not be pacified by the invading empire. Despite this, the resistance leaders and the Scylla are eventually declared dead and the territory given away to the new duke's political allies. They do believe the resistance members are all dead, but it's clear they would have done the same thing even if they weren't. Van, who had been the secret power behind the resistance, is annoyed because he had intended to use Sauron as a something of a diplomatic opening move with Orbaume by owning territory there. Contrary to in universe expectations, he doesn't seize, the land. However, he does curse it by filling it with basically infinite undead and making it impossible to cleanse the devil's nest there. This makes is impossible to even set foot in the area, let alone use it. Worse, the monsters that flee from the undead enter the more valuable neighboring territory, meaning a constant military presence is required and the devil's nest spreads further thanks to migrating monsters.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_1a237409	comment	Order Versus Chaos: The main conflict between Alda and Vida is that Alda desires stability and order over Vida's growth and change. Most of the original gods of Lambda valued chaos to some degree, but without their balance Alda has made rather a mess of the world. It's not entirely his fault given the shitty hand he was dealt, but Rodcorte wasn't wrong when he decided Lambda needed some stimulation to get it back into action. Their respective churches also reflect their preferences: Alda's church is rigid and ceremonial while Vida's is loose and unmindful of small details.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_1a81be	comment	Exponential Potential: The bonuses granted by jobs persist past the time when it is the job still being leveled. So for every job you've experienced, you gain more bonuses per level up for both skills and stats. Thus, someone who has experienced ten jobs isn't twice as powerful as someone that has five but rather dozens or hundreds of times stronger.

Sure, they can't possibly be strong enough to destroy our army that was not even prepared for most monsters in that place! They are being led by the dhampir child that has been evading death since he was one year old and has probably been hunting his own food since then you say? Ha, he is just a stupid, weak child, what could he possibly do?

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_1be36a63	type	Immortal Procreation Clause
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_1be36a63	comment	Immortal Procreation Clause: Vida's races tend to have lower fertility rates than the 'humans' of Lambda. Arachne, for example, can only lay a few eggs once every ten years. The low birth rates on top of persecution by Alda's church has led to them having very low populations despite their long lives. Incidentally, some races aren't noted to have low fertility but simply very little interest in reproduction: Vampires are basically asexual and zero mention is made of them reproducing normally even though they can. At most, you can find a few dhampirs hanging around. However, Scylla do have relatively normal fertility rates with the factors that limit their growth mainly being social rather than physiological in nature. Ghoul eggs and sperm die extremely quickly on top of an immune system that frequently causes miscarriages before the second trimester begins. This leaves them with either very stable populations or a constant slow decline depending on the region. With Van having solved their fertility problems, their population seems to be destined for a massive spike. Without his help, they can't reproduce outside of Devil's Nests at all and thus were confined to them. Undead are technically not immortal, but they functionally are. Given that they're walking corpses, ghosts or other more exotic things, they don't have the working biological mechanisms to reproduce even if everything needed is technically intact. Van doesn't like this and ends up using magically altered gold for experiments on the undead that successfully allows them to reproduce. He wanted Borkus and the others to have the choice if they wanted and intends to see if non corporeal undead can also be allowed to reproduce. The result is that while an undead and a living person reproducing together produces a living person of the parent race, two undead reproducing somehow creates an undead baby that grows to adulthood and then stops aging, but like all normal undead is still incapable of reproduction without life gold treatments. Majin are immortal like vampires, but while their fertility is only somewhat below average they also have a notable lack of interest in reproducing. As such, there are no more than a thousand or two on the entire continent because unlike vampires the method of transforming into a majin is time consuming and highly impractical given the amount of required resources: You can become a vampire if another vampire gives you their blood and optionally performs a small ritual, but becoming a majin requires a week long ceremony involving very special implements and (normally) the sacrifice of hundreds or even thousands of animals or monsters. There are two other methods, one of which is equally violent and impractical and one of which is very slow and highly personal, meaning it's only really good for converting one or two people the majin conducting the ritual really cares about.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical Soul breaking is the most devastating thing you can do to a person, but it's basically impossible to use in a real fight. Your opponent has to be basically immobilized, after all. Van instead uses it as a method of execution, though he's still better at it than Guduranis ever was. Becoming one of Vida's races is a tempting proposition, but apart from becoming a vampire it tends to be difficult bordering on impossible. Special note must go to majin, which require the sacrifice of thousands of animals to use their life force to power the ritualnote Though it's admittedly more common for a majin partner to just have sex with their lover over a period of years, after which they'll generally transform. The other impractical part about is, well, how well would you do if you went to sleep one night and the next time you woke up you had eight legs or none and weighed three times as much?

Vandalieu's body is one too, since he can 'equip' almost anyone inside him with his Group Binding Technique, even if they are hundreds of times his size in scale. This comes with the problem of those inside still needing the necesary nutrition to survive for long periods of time.

Were he to die, the nation would instantly fall apart no matter who tried to replace him. The undead residents would almost all go instantly insane, for example. The people in Van's faction don't worry about the above so much because he's also the linchpin to the entire Vida faction: There are certainly powerful individuals like Schneider or Godwin, but they don't tie the group together or have direct links to the gods.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_3f7a958b	comment	Secret Test of Character: The Trial of Zakkart is not meant to be a display of mere combat potential but rather to test knowledge, open mindedness, resourcefulness, decisiveness and intelligence to not pick useless fights. Gafadgarn is baffled at how followers of Alda fail to realize that a place called the 'Trial of Zakkart' wants you to act like Zakkart. For example, one floor is just an empty labyrinth with the only monsters being Undead Walls that simply make the floor a maze but do nothing else. If you attack them simply for being undead, the walls all turn into thousands of powerful skeleton monsters and attack. Several members of Van's party think this is particularly clever because followers of Bellwood would just assume this is supposed to be part of the test, not penalties for screwing up. There's another test built into it: Gufadgarn would accept someone getting to the bottom of the dungeon by using the prepared solution to all the puzzle floors, but in truth it really wants to see people solve the labyrinth in ways even it didn't think of: When it sees Van simply ask the undead labyrinth walls mentioned above to move out of the way or blow up a forest to get to the center of it more quickly it's practically trying to cry tears of joy: Zakkart also did things nobody would have expected or considered sane all the time.

Medium builds lie in the middle strength and ability wise with no notable thread or poison abilities but also having the only competent mages. Also, the larger the Arachne body type, the longer their average life span. In Zanalpadna, they possess a formal warrior culture with societal roles divided by gender: Arachne are all female and fairly stronger fighters from birth, so they typically became warriors and show their appeal through feats of strength.

But there's no such authority to regulate his own actions. While he isn't corrupt, he did made mistakes with his judgment, the kind that others should have stepped in to stop before they got out of hand. And without an appropriate authority to correct his behavior, he has gone from 'made a hasty prejudgment of foreign gods and their descendants' to 'let's commit genocide while going against my own principles' and other policies that put the world in significant danger of long term failure and destruction. The only other watchmen around would have been his siblings, but out of the ten of them four died, four were incapacitated, one went partially insane and the last lacked the martial ability to keep him in line.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_471a505f	comment	Four Is Death: As the eponymous death mage in the title, Vandalieu does not want to reincarnate a fourth time as it will mean the end of his life as both Amemiya Hiroto and Vandalieu, since Rodcorte will erase any memory he had and leave his souls in a Blank Slate state like every other souls prior to reincarnation. Vandalieu breaks a soul for the first time after becoming four years old. Curiously, Vandalieu's soul is made of the fragments of four Champions souls; Vandalieu is also the only known death mage.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_479f9ad0	comment	Characterization Marches On: The Noble Orc empire is implied early on to be brutal and chaotic with the actual number of Noble Orcs being quite low. At some point this idea seems to have been scrapped and it's actually a peaceful and enlightened society that is at least equal in civilization to the likes of the Amid Empire. Having lost a 'power struggle' is instead changed to being disinherited for being unable to speak the human tongue due to a birth defect.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_4832a3bb	type	Always Chaotic Evil
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_4832a3bb	comment	Always Chaotic Evil: Regularly Subverted. Alda's church presents the war with demon king Guduranis as a holy war, but in truth it was just a war of invading gods versus homegrown ones. While Guduranis himself was a bastard, his followers didn't like him as a result and many switched sides and fought against him! In the present day, they all generally have their own patron races that they protect and nurture. Monsters were created to be the demon king's evil cannon fodder races, but when freed from his influence the high ranked versions are people like any other. While the lower base races do cause problems for mankind, it's only out of biological necessity and when given other options they'll generally take them. Vida's races are similarly believed to be this by Alda's adherents. Emphasis in 'believe', as all of them have human level sentience and often required symbiotic relationships with existing species from the start. Yet the human's records on them paint them as being evil to the point of insanity, such as an all female race that lures in men so they can murder and eat them rather than, you know, just needing to get a mate. Undead in particular are widely assumed to be mindless grudge monsters, but while their personalities are unstable they can be influenced to behave almost like they were when they were alive. Of course, that's generally quite difficult to accomplish, so even Vida's teachings only go so far as to say 'Well, just give them a chance, okay?' Demons are born from corrupted mana, aren't really organisms and never evolved, so they just live to destroy and don't even have the self restraint granted by the basic survival instincts a real creature would have. The only things that can keep them in line are majins that tame them or the extremely rare type of being that can break souls, which is the only thing they fear... Until volume 14, where Van creates his own demons, who after a short bout of Resurrection Sickness become indistinguishable from humans in terms of temperament, and are able to easily integrate with and live peacefully side by side with other races.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_485eb589	comment	Sealed Evil in a Can: Many of the Demon King's former minions are sealed because there aren't any ways to truly kill gods unless you can break souls. Killing them outright will simply either put them to sleep while they regain power or force them to reincarnate, which does at least seem to reduce their power temporarily. Alda briefly weakening his own attribute allows several to break free, which gives Van the opportunity to find and destroy them permanently.

Fidirg is ecstatic when Van commands him to return to being the patron deity of the lizardmen and on the other side of things Rodcorte is almost completely unable to interfere with the worlds he manages because he has no followers and no one but other gods know about him. It's not that he's weak, but he doesn't have the ability to influence worlds that don't recognize him. Van himself begins automatically gaining exp from people worshipping him after taking the Demiurge job.

A middle aged man being followed by a girl that looks no more than 12-14 at best is going to get some bad responses, especially if said girl has a dead eyed stare and actively worships the man whenever she opens her mouth.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_53535691	comment	Stock Light-Novel Hero: Played with. On one hand, Vandalieu once was an Ordinary High-School Student, has a unique power and is outwardly quite stoic, but he had such a crappy family life he thought a new life would be better. His second life was so horrible he downright swears vengeance against those who killed him, even if he has calmed down since. On his third life he decides to live to its fullest, charming women and gaining power, but he's far from an All-Loving Hero, being a Pragmatic Hero instead. He also finds himself physically unable to let his many eager suitors to bear his children (being a child and all). His foil Hiroto Amemiya is more of a deconstruction. A NEET back on Earth who happened to be on the same boat, he accidentally received twice as much fortune and unique gifts, deciding to use his new life to help others. Unfortunately, he's rather naive and puts his trust on the wrong people, making mistakes that end up causing several deaths, with governments downright fearing him for his uniqueness and plotting to kill him. He's also a one-trick pony, being Happily Married to Narumi Naruse.

When the Undead titans of Talosheim find out that the Hartner Duchy betrayed, killed and enslaved their people, the only thing that stops them from descending from the mountains and laying waste to the whole country is Vandalieu. It should be noted that titans usually do not to blame people for the crimes of their ancestors since they live for so long. They were that mad. Darcia forgives Heinz for killing her, presumably because he regrets doing it. But she (and Vida) will never forgive him for hurting Van. Yeah, good luck with your goal of reconciling Alda and Vida's races now, buddy. Heinz and Van making peace was always highly unlikely, but at least possible. However, thanks to Curatos making a copy Darcia to stop Van so that Heinz would survive Van is now convinced that he must kill Heinz to prevent him from ever hurting his friends and family ever again. Heinz tries to say it wasn't his idea and he didn't mean to do it, but Van has stopped listening by this point.

He's being gracious and generous without being prompted. This is a lot less formal than most religions he's used to, but it's noted that the church of Alda is very stuffy, formal and ceremonious. However, it's mentioned not long after that it's not that Alda wants his church to be that way but rather that the church itself makes up ceremonies and rules and then breaks those rules themselves. All Alda cares about is maintaining the rule of law, not whether his priestesses live chaste lives of dedication or whatever. Thus, Alda himself is well intentioned and honest, to put it nicely, with little more care for ceremony than Vida. His church, however, is increasingly corrupt. Eventually, he has the old pope deposed and replaced out of irritation at not getting things done and fear of the upsurgent church of Vida and Van in particular.

The people races could have jobs and the monsters Ranks. After the war, however, Vida created new races, some of whom counted both as people and monsters. This allows them to hold both ranks and jobs, which combine together into superior growth than the normal human or monster races would have alone. Thus, races like Scylla and Ghouls are noted to easily punch above their expected weight class. They also seem to just level up and increase their ranks a bit quicker since they're getting double bonuses.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_57b80b45	type	Fantastic Racism
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_57b80b45	comment	Fantastic Racism After Vida birthed numerous races a hundred thousand years ago and then lost the war to Alda, her people have been subject to constant persecution. Heinz is attempting to change this as best he can to have them acknowledged as equals to the people races, though Van considers his actions to be condescending and more about helping him feel better about himself than pure altruism. The pure humanoid races descended from Vida such as beast people, titans and dark elves are referred to as demihumans in Amid, giving them status about on par with ogres and orcs and can be killed or enslaved at any time. They generally keep to isolated settlements to avoid persecution. In Orbaume, they are generally treated as equal to the three human races, though on an individual basis discrimination seems common. Surprisingly, Alda does not mind these races as they do not possess Ranks as monsters, but hasn't made his position clear, which makes for a peaceful faction that accepts them and a hardline faction that wants their heads on pikes. The races publicly considered to be descended from monsters such as Arachne and Empusa are treated as brutal man eating monsters and are killed on sight in Amid. In Orbaume they're not welcome either, though there's a community of Scylla who have a treaty of non interference due to possessing land humans can't use anyway. While they too were once treated as mere monsters and targets for extermination, it became clear with time that they're open, friendly and non hostile. They're still not welcome in human society, however, and are kept firmly out of politics due to their long lifespans. Majin and ghouls aren't even acknowledged to be descended from Vida, meaning no one at all will vouch for them. Some elves discriminate against dark elves, but just as many see them as a cousin race and have no problems with them. Darcia indicates early on that the racist point of view is more common, but she's not a very reliable source of information and it's later implied that relations are better than she believes. Dwarves are unique among the 'human' races of Lambda in that they don't have poor relations with any of Vida's races, though it's unclear how much ability they have to interact with, say, Lamia. The humanoid monster races such as orcs, kobolds and goblins are considered to be nothing more than, well, monsters. This is completely fair north of the Boundary Mountain Range, but the sub-races of Noble Orcs, High Kobolds and High Goblins all have their own thriving and peaceful kingdoms. These groups are all descended from monsters who sided with Vida after the defeat of the Demon King, so Van takes them under his patronage after meeting them and helping them sort out some political issues. Noble Orcs and High Goblins do not accept orcs and goblins as their equals. They are subordinate races and are expected and biologically inclined to be subservient. In the Noble Orc Empire, orcs are laborers while goblins are implicitly too dim to even be citizens in the high goblin nation. Kobolds, however, are treated as equals to high kobolds and members of the same pack, though high kobolds still hold the leadership positions due to monsters generally submitting to the strongest individuals.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_617f0563	comment	Heel–Face Turn A closely held secret among the gods is that at least ten of the evil gods under the demon king actually changed sides when asked by Zakkart. They didn't actually like their old boss, they were just afraid of him. Alda does not accept them as anything but pure evil, so they all sided with Vida when Alda attacked. Out of respect for this, while Gufadgarn hates Alda and Bellwood, if any of them had conquered the Trial of Zakkart it would have been entirely fair and honest. It would have told them the truth about the history they probably never learned and given them a chance to be the new Zakkart. After all, everyone deserves a chance. More of the Evil Gods changed sides later. Members of the Noble Orc, High Kobold and High Goblin races switched to Vida's faction: One of the core beliefs of her religion is that the defeated should be loved so that they can stand back up again, so she's apparently very willing to extend a hand in forgiveness. None of their original patron deities are active in the present, however: The boar beast king was a traitor to Lambda, the Kobold's creator joined Vida but was sealed and the Goblin's patron deity in the present is one of Zuruwarn's subordinate deities.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_6b2b3b59	comment	The Reveal: Volume 3's Side Chapter 5: "Vida". Vandalieu is actually the reincarnation of the 4 Champions who were killed and had their soul shattered by the Demon King in Lambda's past. Rodcorte, wanting to prevent the gods of Lambda from disrupting his transmigration system any further by attempting to revive them, had taken the champions' soul shards, still filled with the remnants of the demon king's death-attribute mana, and pushed them together into a new poorly formed soul, which he then deposited on Earth. This is why Van has access to the death-attribute, why his soul is so strange, and why his 'Empty Frame' is so large his mp is in the millions. It is also why the prophecies about him exist, how he got out of Rodcorte's circle and became one of Vida's races, and why his level growth is so fast. The various gods in Vida's faction wanted to help him as a means of atonement for failing their friends 100,000 years ago, even if Van wasn't actually them anymore.

Hiroto Amemiya's children, Hiroshi and Mei, are named after Vandalieu's original name (the first kanji of Hiroto can be read as Hiroshi) and Pluto (it can be written as mei-ou (dark/death king) in japanese), respectively.

And Gazer. Rapiéçage (stitching) was named that as she is was made by stitching body parts together. Vida's name means 'life' in spanish, appropriately enough, she is the goddess of life and love.

By the time the story begins, the only founding god that can act is Alda, who oversees the world as best he can but has bad priorities. The protagonist Vandalieu changes that when he frees Vida and helps spread the worship of her and her allies while deliberately snubbing Alda and his subordinates, all in preparation for the inevitable rematch between gods.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_72f992e4	comment	No Loves Intersect: While multiple people might be interested in a single person of the opposite sex, Vida's races are explicitly polyamorous. Even the undead of races that are primarily monogamous find their attitudes changing: Even near mindless undead like zombies tend to group up because they feel instinctively lonely and want to be around more of their own kind. This leads one zombie elf to outright insist that her love interest get another zombie girl willing to go out with him before they can date.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_7317b97d	comment	Awakening the Sleeping Giant: Though relationships between Amid and Talosheim were already basically nonexistent at best and incredibly hostile at worse, Van was content to just ignore them. However, Marshukzarl attempted to forcibly recruit him or assassinate him if that failed, resulting in him losing four valuable agents, the Sauron duchy, a duke and his army and finally receiving an informal declaration of war from Van, who had had enough of their shit. The emperor is rather desperate to return to peaceful relations but has no idea of how to get into contact with him or what can be offered as an apology. He's even willing to offer his own head as an apology because he knows Amid can't beat Talosheim.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_7335ffa9	type	Grey-and-Gray Morality
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_7335ffa9	comment	Grey-and-Gray Morality: One of the story's main themes is how every conflict amounts to this, be it the Amid Empire's suppression of Vida's races to bring unity by a 'us against them' stand, Vandalieu's pursuit of happiness via abnormal means, Alda's wish for the world to not change or even Rodcotre's apathetic way of managing the reincarnation system. Alda's camp are genuinely trying to rebuild the world and restore it to a utopia, but their methods are hypocritical and the entire endeavor is likely doomed to failure. In pursuit of this goal they've been pursuing genocide for thousands of years. The Hundred Bravers turn out to just be an organization made of people like any other and even the most genuinely heroic members are heavily flawed, most notably with Asagi's narrow minded aggression and Amemiya's poor judgment and snap decision making skills that cause more problems than they solve. Van himself is quite prone to breaking souls, which is considered a Fate Worse than Death, and actively engages in multiple forms of slavery: His golems use dead spirits, some of which were recently killed (and thus still temporarily sentient) criminals. He also will often turn his enemies into undead, who [Death-Attribute Charm] almost always makes entirely loyal to him, to use as labor or subordinates. And finally, some of his enemies and criminals are used for various science experiments on human subjects, though Van is eventually convinced to pass some of Lambda's very first human rights laws making this particular practice illegal within his own nation. Apart from this, his grudge against Heinz can come across as being counterproductive to the protection of his friends and family, and the improvement of the Vida races' treatment within Orbaume, in the present. Amid and Orbaume are just nations like any other. Amid has issues with a corrupt and arguably evil church, but is politically honest with the emperor secretly not even being a true follower of the state church. Orbaume, on the other hand, is supposedly less racist but in practice isn't much better. It's also highly corrupt.

In another conversation, a slightly drunk Zakkart was annoyed that Bellwood was quite popular with girls while Zakkart himself couldn't get even one girlfriend, so if Gufadgarn wants to help him it could find a pretty girl for him to talk to. Gufadgarn took this to mean that when it creates a new vessel it should take the form of a pretty girl. And since girl means young female child, it takes the form of someone that would have been much too young for Zakkart, completely oblivious as to what Zakkart was actually taking about. Thanks to that, Gufadgarn ends up putting something of a stain on Zakkart's reputation by making him look like a pedophile. In the present, Van quietly dreads the idea of Gufadgarn continuing to inhabit this vessel while Van is more physically mature since the same problem will quickly happen to him.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_776a06eb	comment	All Myths Are True: Played with. All the gods and monsters of legend on Lambda are actual beings that can and do still involve themselves in the matters of mortals. Inverted with the gods of Earth and Origin, who are actually just amalgams of all the myths people on that planet believe in in some way. And the urban legends and fictional characters too. This stops them from producing miracles or otherwise intervening in people's lives like the gods of Lambda, as their various aspects are constantly fighting within themselves over what to do. Even a copy of Pluto is able to become an aspect of the God of Origin, simply from the veneration Pluto obtained from the people saved by the Eighth Guidance. Similarly inverted with most of the species of Lambda's names. The status system was based on fantasy video games the gods of space and time had observed on Earth, and thus uses the Fantasy Kitchen Sink often seen in them to assign names and skills to the various species of Lambda, rather than those races being the ones from Earth's mythology.

Word of God is that races transformed by drinking Vandalieu's blood (and later his Mutagenesis skill) don't have a finite lifespan either, meaning that Chaos Elves, Dark Ones (humans), and Duergar (dwarves) are this too.

Heinz's party spent the years after Darcia's death comforting him for his guilt over his role in her death. They were all too happy to help Heinz make up for it in some way at least in part so he would feel better. However, this is actually quite contrary to helping Heinz atone for real: Their constant reassurances that he didn't really do anything wrong or that he's making up for an old mistake dampen his sense of guilt. When he eventually gets called out by hi actual victim, Van, instead of apologizing he becomes defensive and refuses to admit his own mistakes. This causes the divide between them to be irreversible: Before this their goals were similar enough that they could have feasibly worked together and accomplished great things. To save Heinz, Curatos summons a copy of Darcia that causes Van to hesitate while Heinz accidentally cuts through it. While this does save Heinz's life, it's also the final straw for Van, who is now completely convinced that peace between him and Heinz is absolutely impossible. It also alienates Vida and Darcia herself for forcing Van to be hurt so badly, which completely ruins any possibility of actually achieving Heinz's goal of compromise.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_7b8f5f07	comment	Charm Person: A wide range of skills make people more enticing or charismatic, and can even edge into More Than Mind Control in many cases. the [Allure] skill line possessed commonly by female monsters and provided by some Jobs that emphasize the beauty of the holder. Of course, since the skill relies on finding the appearance of the beholder in some way attractive, it is less effective on some than others and doesn't work so well anymore if you've suffered a disfigurement that would be considered unattractive. [Charm] type skills work more akin to a light brainwashing, making the affected think of the user from a very friendly person to an object of worship depending on the level. Van's [Death-Attribute Charm] specifically affects those who have an affinity to Death-Attribute mana, like undead and races with undead parentage, or those suffering from extreme negative emotional states. Tsuchiya Kanako's [Venus] skill works by making her extremely likable to others, affecting even those who hear or see recordings of her, though she admits it does not work as well with reincarnators or those with minds too different from hers. This is a half-truth she told the other reincarnators to hide her real memory altering skill that can copy and paste general impressions and feelings along with specific memories. [Guidance] and [Path Enticement] type skills make the user appear exceptionally charismatic and make it easier to guide those who are like minded into following them and their specific philosophies. Interestingly, it even makes those who were "guided" feel a sense of camaraderie and community with other guided individuals. Bellwood for instance was able to be a charismatic natural leader in the Demon King War with his [Guidance] skill despite leading most of the time with nothing but empty words and promises, telling people just what they wanted to hear, and rarely actually listening to the opinions of others when they disagreed with him, like Zakkart, Arc, Solder and Hillwillow.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_7d7f4e4f	comment	Magical Girl: Invoked. Van eventually makes use of his newly created "Death Metal"'s Shapeshifting properties to create a new type of armor that can transform from a handheld staff into Instant Armor. However, since it's still metal, and thus rather heavy, the thickness of the armor has to be limited to about the thickness of cloth. Further, the more surface area, the more magic sigils Van can add to give it improved abilities. This leads Van to create a cloth looking armor with lots of additional pieces of cloth attached to it... which makes him think of Magical Girl outfits, with all their frills and bows... which causes him to turn the transforming armor into a magical girl looking outfit for fun. Further, the equipment soon becomes quite popular among various magic users for its portability and sigil enhancements, leading to a whole bunch of them actually getting a [Magical Girl] job from the status system.

Almost all of her progeny are naturally polyamorous, she places no importance on virginity and her church's female saints often work as sacred prostitutes. However, actual prostitution for money seems to be somewhat frowned upon, possibly because it reduces sex to a mere commercial exchange.

Ghoul women instead stop aging when they get pregnant for the first time while some species like vampires are ambiguous because, well, vampires don't reproduce with each other even though they can.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_813afa05	comment	Defiled Forever: Monster rape victims in the human nations are often treated with great distaste, which is actually an improvement over how they used to be treated ie. as potential property or as sluts needing to be burned. After defeating the Noble Orc Bugogan, the ghouls eventually convert the captured human adventurers into more ghouls because the women refused to return to a society where they would be so heavily shunned for the abuses they suffered at the hands of the orcs. In Talosheim, there are a fair number of rape victims, some of whom were former slaves, but there nobody particularly cares because their chief goddess Vida places no importance on virginity and promotes very open sexual conduct. The 'human' races have some difficulty adjusting, however, so those like Kachia take some time to recover.

Since orcs are monsters, women are generally not inclined to go along with this. Second, they have such immense sex drives that even if they want to they find it nearly impossible to hold back during sex. Van can't really blame the orcs for what they do, but he still protects his citizens as necessary. The god of the Noble Orc empire compensated for this by granting them an artificial race known as Flesh Wives, which are intelligent, caring and sturdy enough to put up with the immense libido of orcs. Orcs, in turn, cherish them greatly.

Aside from not even remembering their actual names, the members of the Eighth Guidance don't want to go back to a time before they met "The Undead", as they like the life they have now. While not an alter ego, Vandalieu think this way of his life as Amamiya Hiroto, forgetting his grudges of what happened in his past life as he prefers to concentrate more in protecting his current happiness, as most thinking of his past lives as "memories of someone else".

But Van is the protagonist, so the narrative sides with him rather than the far more traditionally heroic Heinz or Amemiya Hiroto, though figures like Alda and Asagi would be in the wrong either way.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_8a336276	comment	Propaganda Piece: In-Universe. While becoming something like an arachne or lamia would require at the very least major lifestyle changes and adjustments to the new biology, vampires are very close to humans, only stronger, nearly immortal and with special magic powers. As such, there are numerous dramas designed to play up the "terrible downsides" like not being able to go out under the sun and to portray vampires as not only monsters, but also unhappy with what they are. Many of Vida's other monster children have rather terrible propaganda about them in adventurer guides, such as arachne and empusa being accused of eating their mates and male children. Other races have their genuine traits exaggerated with lamia being portrayed as yanderesnote They do tend to be very fixated and passionate, but they aren't a monogamous race and are clever enough to try making friends with their targets actual significant other if they have competition rather than going for murder or majin being accused of committing any atrocious act they can think of. Scylla, notably, have actually had great success in throwing off this reputation to the point where even ancient truths about them are dismissed as slander!

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_8ae880f7	comment	Deconstruction: This story deconstructs several isekai tropes and stereotypes. The heroic personality type who wants to go out and right wrong and thwart evil can be really annoying if all you want is to be left alone. Worse, this personality type is also frequently very unwilling to listen to reason since they already 'know' that they're in the right. Heinz, Amemiya, Bellwood and Asagi all cause major issues specifically because they have a strong sense of justice and no desire to listen to their beliefs being challenged, though some (cough, Asagi) are worse about it than others. When you find yourself face to face with a god promising you life in a new world, ask questions and figure out what's going on before you commit to anything. He's probably doing it for his own reasons and you are under no obligation to assume he has your best interests at heart. Simply having super-powers and divine blessings does not guarantee success, especially if those powers and blessings don't fit your personality, goals, dreams, or the new world you find yourself in. These 'blessings' can easily force your life into a direction you don't want it to go. Yeah, fighting evildoers is nice and all, but what if you just want to play tennis or sing on stage? One hundred thousand years after the destructive and climactic fight to defeat the evil demon king that could have easily been its own story - and has, over and over - the world is still in a shitty state because guys who are only good at saying inspiring things and hitting stuff until it breaks aren't much good at actually helping build infrastructure or repair the damage that has already been done. In fact, if anything, they can cause more damage in the long term precisely because they're so good at persuading people with empty, heroic sounding statements.

A normal person would generally have stats well below a hundred while S ranked individuals have had stats well over ten thousand. The way actual effective ability scales is unclear: Someone with ten thousand agility definitely can't run a hundred times faster than someone with just one hundred. Intelligence also doesn't directly boost spell damage or anything nor does it actually make the person in question any more intelligent but rather defines how well they can handle complicated magic without stressing out their brains, indicating a level of subconscious data processing that can't be used for normal purposes. Wisdom is more or less completely absent. Charisma is not a stat the way the others are, but there are a number of skills that serve the same purpose.

This quote from Lucilliano demonstrates how much Vandalieu's crew is overpowered in relation to the rest of the world, and even then they, in most cases, are not the most powerful characters around.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_8f37b	comment	Medieval Stasis Bellwood and Alda are against the progression of technology, so for the last hundred thousand years the world has remained in almost exactly the same state as it was at the start. Even magical substitutions for pure technology are considered heresy. Even domestication of wild fruit and grains is usually banned. On the other hand, there is no excuse for the nations south of the Boundary Mountain Range to be as backward as they are, nor as lacking in numbers. Their gods encourage development of new technology but for whatever reason they're still only at the same level as the nations like Amid and Orbaume. There's only acknowledgement of the tiniest level of semantic and linguistic drift over a hundred thousand years, even between nations that have no contact with each other whatsoever. While empires come and go, they all seem to be about the same politically but with different names. There's no mention of anything like republics ever having existed, though it's possible they simply never came up. The population figures are also incredibly low given the amount of time that has advanced: The continent the main story takes place on seems to be larger than the United States at least, but only has a population of roughly a hundred million. Starting from the 3000 survivors of the war against the demon king, if you assume even 1% of the population growth of the modern day, you end up with a figure a hundred times greater than what Lambda currently has. Given that Lambda's medical technology and life expectancy don't really seem that bad and that there are effectively limitless resources, there isn't really a great explanation for why this would happen.

Undead genuinely have no need to sleep and struggle to even do something approximating it, but they do need to take in mana. They also happen to enjoy eating actual physical food, though they don't have to. Zombies gain experience from it. Finally, undead do feel some desire for sex, though in most cases it's substantially lower than when they were alive. Apart from the offspring of Vida and the undead Zakkart, though, undead are sterile. Which Van doesn't like, so he starts experimenting with them so that those like Kasim in a relationship with the undead can have children. And it works, more or less.

Worse, it has also become a Devil's Nest that cannot be cleared thanks to all the undead.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_91e894b4	comment	Apocalypse How: The Demon King War lead to a Class 2 bordering into Class 3, with only 3000 humans, elves and dwarves remaining on Lambda by the end. According to Rodcorte, both the Demon King and Vandalieu are capable of a Class X-5, due to their ability to break souls, which Rodcorte believes are finite and thus must be "recycled" by him. Without manual adjustment, each soul broken causes a living being in a different part of his system to be born without a soul, which is essentially equivalent to being born brain dead. Rodcorte tries to pull one himself by disconnecting said system from Earth, Origin and Lambda. It fails because Vandalieu didn't bother to hide the details of his reincarnation and accidentally binds Rodcorte to Lambda

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_92d728e1	comment	Demons are born from corrupted mana, aren't really organisms and never evolved, so they just live to destroy and don't even have the self restraint granted by the basic survival instincts a real creature would have. The only things that can keep them in line are majins that tame them or the extremely rare type of being that can break souls, which is the only thing they fear... Until volume 14, where Van creates his own demons, who after a short bout of Resurrection Sickness become indistinguishable from humans in terms of temperament, and are able to easily integrate with and live peacefully side by side with other races.

It's how he shows his last shreds of mercy when he's royally pissed by pointing out that he's got far bigger things on his mind than your petty tantrums. Forcing him to pay attention to you at that point, especially by feeling insulted and attacking, is abjectly suicidal. Once you've forced him to engage you, retreat, surrender, escape, and survival are a pipe-dream, at best.

When the two young reincarnators reveal themselves, and the fact they were present during the death of the Undead, they are scared Van would act on revenge, so to calm them down he swears to God he won't.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9823f7c	comment	Proud Warrior Race: Both the Majin and the Kijin, Vida races with high combat abilities and descendants of both Vida and Zantark had been the protectors of the Boundary Mountain Range ever since its creation a hundred thousand years ago, protecting it from potential outside invasion and culling high rank dungeons to avoid possible stampedes of powerful monsters. This is also the reason they choose a king via a tournament as they usually don't follow those mentally or physically weaker than them. The Arachne and Empusa have developed a warrior culture in regards to mating, especially the latter. Since they're naturally stronger than their (usually) human mates, they tend to handle the fighting. This means that in order to be appealing, they try to display how strong and capable they are. This completely flies over the head of one of the adventurers who migrated to Talosheim: An empusa warrior keeps asking to go to dungeons together with him so she can show off, but he doesn't realize that to her it's basically a date.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9c45b5a2	comment	What Measure Is a Non-Human? Discussed at one point when it comes to the reincarnators. Van worries that they'll instantly buy into the worldview of the Church of Alda, which considers all of Vida's children to be monsters unable to coexist with humanity. Since Van is in many ways responsible for their protection, this could easily put him at odds with them. Fortunately, this is at least temporarily stopped by Rodcorte's assistants warning the people coming to Lambda that Van is extremely protective of his people and that they shouldn't start any trouble. Played with when it comes to the intelligent races of Lambda. While Van is willing to extend his protection towards any race that is intelligent and peaceful enough to speak with him, other members of that race are fair game. For example, he ends up allied with the Noble Orc Empire after he learns they usually don't hurt anyone. However, Noble Orcs outside the empire are hostile and therefore fair game to serve as materials, exp fodder or even rations.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9e943076	comment	One-Man Army: Discussed, while in Lambda there are many individuals that easily topple mountains if the wanted to, they are still just one person with one body that can't be everywhere at the same time during a war and even if they could they can't fight forever without resting. After clearing The Trials of Zakkart, Van start to create ways for him to be in more than one places by making "clone" bodies using Demon King Fragments to control at long distances, effectively being able to make an army of himself. On a note more adherent to the trope, S Rank individuals are treated as being more of a natural disaster than people strength wise.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9eb11fac	type	Weak, but Skilled
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9eb11fac	comment	Weak, but Skilled The standard rank for Ghouls is a mere rank 3, but adventurers tend to avoid them because they have nasty and varied skills, high intelligence and cooperate effectively. This makes them some of the most dangerous monsters of their rank. Combined with the low value of their body parts and generally reclusive nature, adventurers just don't consider them worth the effort. Humanoid races tend to have relatively low stats compared to monsters and make up the difference in technique. It only gets them so far, however, especially if going against a race that can hold Jobs and Ranks.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9eb71c7c	comment	Super Toughness: The RPG like stats that exist in Lambda mean that what would normally be considered a lethal attack is of only limited effectiveness: An ordinary person catching a great hero by surprise and slitting their throat would kill someone on Earth or Origin, but in Lambda it might not even break the skin. This severely cuts down on the effectiveness of skills like Amemiya's [Ignore Defense] because even if it can ignore, say, Van's barriers, it would still have to be a strong enough attack to cut through all his HP.

While even demigod level figures cannot ignore these skills, clever combatants can simply use chain or area attacks to render them significantly less effective such as Van seemingly targeting Stone Wall Delizah only to toss her into the air and wipe out the mage behind her.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_9f63d4f1	comment	Our Vampires Are Different: Vampires are one of the last races created by Vida and typically the most powerful by default. There are four types of vampires: The True Ancestor, Pure Breeds, Noble Borns and Subordinates. The True Ancestor is dead and the Pure Breeds can no longer increase in number because they were all his descendants either literally or turned personally. Noble Born and Subordinate vampires are members of other races turned into vampires with Noble Borns having special and stronger powers. They're all weak to sunlight and silver, but they're not actually undead. They almost never reproduce together due to nonexistent sex drives, but dhampirs do pop up with some regularity. The True Ancestor was the child born between Vida and the undead Zakkart and has been dead since the war between Vida and Alda, but there is a prophecy that he will one day return.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_a5adbbe7	type	Unreliable Expositor
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_a5adbbe7	comment	Unreliable Expositor The end of volume bonus sections tend to have the official adventure guild entry for certain monsters or whatever historical accounts of them remain, but they're usually at least half wrong. Ghouls are referred to directly as monsters because their history as one of Vida's races has been lost to most, including many of them. They also tend to be considered inferior monsters, so records of Ghouls above the rank of Ghoul Tyrant tend to be dismissed. They're also considered undead. It's said that noble born vampires are always subordinate to pure breeds and always weaker, even the vampire emperors. However, one of Eleanora's entries notes that she's gotten to be almost as strong as Birkyne well before becoming a vampire empress and certainly isn't subservient to him. A high rank noble born vampire also tries picking a fight with Zorcodrio and while he does get immediately wrecked, it undermines the idea of subservience. Arachne and Empusa are said to capture, rape and then devour their mates. Scylla are also said to lure in passing humans so they can devour them. The truth is that all three would never do that for practical reasons if nothing else: They have no males and therefore couldn't afford to simply throw away a valuable resource that easily. Some Arachne and Scylla in particular are also noted to be very loving and cuddly. More recent records also indicate that this perception of Scylla, at least, is an outdated one and no longer taken seriously and there is growing acceptance that this includes arachne as well. But Empusa north of the mountains didn't manage to either hide or salvage their reputation, so they were wiped out thousands of years ago and nobody even recognizes them anymore. Majins are referred to as demons. They're almost completed unrelated but simply happen to appear together sometimes because majin have the racial ability to tame demons as a result of their ancestry. Kijin are referred to as an inferior breed of majin, but they're simply a related species that works together for mutual benefit. Insect monsters are said to be untamable due to lacking any form of intelligence. While it's not clear exactly how intelligent a normal cemetery bee is, they do communicate with each other, possibly to the point of being a fully fledged language even if it's based on their antenna and Quinn in particular is capable of complex conversations, though we never hear what she says directly until she becomes a Gehenna bee. Meanwhile, Pete is capable of understanding speech and commands. While it doesn't seem to be as intelligent as a person, it's definitely not mindless. The true reason insects seem to be untamable appears to be the other reason given in that they perceive the world very differently, have different senses and different mental structures. Darcia provides early world building information, but as Van quickly realizes, she's not very well informed at all. She doesn't know that ghouls are a race born of Vida, gives an inaccurate representation of elf/dark elf relations, describes Orbaume in overly positive terms and gets the origins of many of Vida's races wrong. When Rodcorte is explaining the situation regarding Van to the reincarnators, he isn't actually being as deliberately manipulative with the truth as you might expect. Doesn't have to be: The only intel he's really getting comes from people still in his system rather than Vida's, meaning it includes none of his subjects and few of the people he befriends, at least not for long. Basically? He mostly sees what Van's enemies see.

Thus, the only one to consider Van's massive harem unusual is Van himself. Even other humans note that he's a king and therefore expected to have numerous concubines.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_a60f7120	comment	Physical God: Gods who have the power to spare can walk on the surface pretty much as they please. Ones who don't are more or less forced to stay inside their Divine Realms or at best make a mortal into a vessel to reside in. Powerful enough mortals, monsters and living beings of all sorts gain more powerful souls as they become stronger in general, especially if they are well known and revered. Thus, races like Pure Breed Vampires are functionally very low level gods. Meanwhile, Van doesn't have to maintain any attributes and just eats enemies for power ups rather than having to waste power sealing them. Thus, he ends up joining this category as well around the time of the Trial of Zakkart.

The barriers' operating time and strength are limited only by his mana, which thanks to his [Empty Frame] quickly reaches into the billions. Vandalieu's [Delay Death] spell and ability to control his body with his spirit or soul alone allows him to survive even fatal damage to his body. Vandalieu was even decapitated once... only for him to casually grab his head with spirit form and put it back on. Subverted with Death Attribute Charm in regards to vampires. While vampires like Sercrent remain hostile towards Van since they're too strong to be dominated against their will even if they don't realize what he's doing, it's noted that the skill is still having some effect. In his case, it's implied that the weird feelings from the Charm skill made him somewhat emotionally unstable and led to his saying things he'd normally have kept quiet about (killing Valen) and behaving foolishly in the ensuing battle. People who are aware of the Charm and consciously resist it genuinely won't feel the effects unless they willingly submit, however.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_ae0bbe52	comment	Living Statue: The vast majority of Talosheim's "decorations". From statues encrusted in the outer walls (as emergency soldiers) to small eyes and birds carved in the inner structures (as security cameras) and the moving dinosaur bones inside the castle (which Van likes). The only exception seems to be the statues of the gods and the many statues showing Van's growth, probably out of respect.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_ae6adc36	comment	Religious and Mythological Theme Naming: The Eighth Guidance member's names are all based on mythological, religious and fictional beings related to death like Pluto the Roman god of the underworld, Enma the Buddhist god that judges the dead, Ereshkigal the Mesopotamian goddess of the underworld, Isis an Egyptian goddess of death, Izanmi the Japanese goddess who cursed mankind with mortality, and so on. Lambda's various races could also be considered to fall into this trope, as they all take their names from the (for them) alien world of Earth where the god who made the Class and Level System got the idea from.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_afc8ddc7	type	Armor-Piercing Attack
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_afc8ddc7	comment	Armor-Piercing Attack: Several different examples. Kanata Kaidou's [Gungnir] skill can be applied this way by designating the thing he wants to pierce (which can be anything from a type of material, object or even magic), the affected object becomes intangible whenever it encounters him, allowing him to pass through armor, walls and other defenses. However, if he wants to use a weapon, he can't declare weapon as a target as whatever weapon he wields will just phase through his hands. It also won't work on certain things, like ghosts, as picking them would cause his own spirit and soul to phase through out of his body and instantly kill him. Hiroto's [Ignore Defense] skill lets him, well, ignore all the defenses of anything he attacks. This, of course, includes himself, his allies and any structure he may be inside of, so he tries not to use it underground, or with attacks that cover too much area. It is also mentioned that it may not be as effective on Lambda, due to the existence of Vitality that's entirely separate defense, and thus makes it easy to survive what would be a One-Hit Kill.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_affd30b0	comment	Stupid Evil: Alda's propaganda depicts many of Vida's single gendered races as vicious to the point of insanity. For example, Arachne and Empusa are said to capture, rape and then eat any men they capture in order to keep their numbers up. This would technically work, but would be horrible for their long term survival when it would be much easier and safer to just live inside humanoid communities. Scylla managed to eventually throw off this reputation and thus appear to be one of the more successful races Vida created as they're not subject to purges and in Orbaume the Adventurer's Guild will not accept subjugation missions for them. Arachne only had partial success with shedding their poor reputation while Empusa failed completely and were wiped out north of the mountains as a result.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_b1346878	comment	Van himself is quite prone to breaking souls, which is considered a Fate Worse than Death, and actively engages in multiple forms of slavery: His golems use dead spirits, some of which were recently killed (and thus still temporarily sentient) criminals. He also will often turn his enemies into undead, who [Death-Attribute Charm] almost always makes entirely loyal to him, to use as labor or subordinates. And finally, some of his enemies and criminals are used for various science experiments on human subjects, though Van is eventually convinced to pass some of Lambda's very first human rights laws making this particular practice illegal within his own nation. Apart from this, his grudge against Heinz can come across as being counterproductive to the protection of his friends and family, and the improvement of the Vida races' treatment within Orbaume, in the present.

And did you know that those parasitic insects take their hosts with them when teleported even when they're being used as equipment? Hmmm... When he's younger, Van has to let his allies deal the killing blow if he wants to gain any experience to get around his curse. Later, he creates Death element spirits associated with particular elements that work as his own firepower, but are technically launched by Orbia, Kimberley and Levia. As such, he can kill enemies himself now without losing out on exp.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_b2280b66	comment	Retcon: Though many details were clearly planned in advance, some things changed over time in the web novel. The general excuse is brushing it up to another unreliable source of exposition, but this excuse doesn't really work when it comes from the narrator instead of Darcia or the adventurer's manual. Noble Orcs were once indicated to be rare and highly aggressive early on. When they actually appear, they have their own peaceful kingdom that serves as the de facto leader of a coalition. Bugogan's backstory of being driven out in a power struggle is instead changed to being disinherited due a speech impediment. The justification is that the power struggle story is how he viewed the situation. Colossi were said early on to have all converted to worship of the Evil Gods apart from Talos, but it turns out there are still a fair number on both sides of the Vida/Alda conflict, such as Talos and Deeana for Vida and Gorn and Brateo for Alda. When Van rampaged through the research facility, it was said that he killed everyone there. It's later stated that he was a lot more selective than this and even went out of his way to rescue other research subjects and attempt to guide them to safety. The manga goes with this version from the beginning and shows a sneak peek of the Eighth Guidance in the process. When the story is explaining what Live-Dead are, it's stated that because the body needs to still be a functional organism it can't be heavily damaged and needs to have its basic needs cared for. However, Ternecia's headless corpse is kept in Talosheim as a Live-Dead organ/skin graft donor. Vida's races aren't supposed to be able to be made into Live-Dead, either, though this does get a handwave eventually. It's indicated at first than Kanako used Venus to thoroughly manipulate and brainwash others constantly and conspicuously in order to become as popular as she did. When she joins Talosheim this is dialed back to the point where she barely used her special ability at all and never in a way that caused anyone lasting harm or could really be considered 'cheating.' The other explanation is that Kanako is blatantly lying to make herself look better. On a minor note, it's said that if Amemiya Hiroto had been born in Origin about a hundred years earlier Japan might have actually won WWII. However, it's later stated that WWII never happened in Origin at all.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_b39b94da	comment	Born Lucky: The Bravers were given immense luck by Rodcorte before they were reborn. This let them survive against all kinds of mortal situations and unsurmountable odds. Special mention goes to Hiroto, who also received the luck meant to be for Van. It is strong enough to overpower the other Bravers own luck, making it so The Eighth Guidance members couldn't be so easily killed since he wanted to capture them alive if possible. This luck starts to fail them if they go against one another, since their luck essentially cancels out, or anyone outside Rodcorte's reincarnation system (like Van in his third life). This makes them have to depend in their own strength and decision-making skills. Murakami's group takes advantage of this to try and kill them.

While he is very much conscious of having over 40 years of life experience, Van sometimes acts like a child for this very reason. Pauvina similarly acts like a child her age despite demonstrating access to many of the memories and skills she had in her last life as a 20-something adventurer. Rodcorte comments that he sealed away the Bravers' memories until they became 5 years old, both to minimize the strain to their baby brains, which can't handle the thought process of a fully developed adult, and so they don't become traumatized for being trapped in such an small body.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_b6cebad3	comment	Double Standard Vida's races being polyamorous is the go to excuse for Van having so many suitors without any conflict and why other male characters can have more than one partner, but no women in the present do even if it's supposedly common in universe. Some ghoul women have previous sexual experience and Tiamat and Vida have had multiple partners in the past, but none of these are portrayed as having been for anything but reproduction and don't continue into the present. Farmaun Gold gets hit with this twice. First, gods like Fidirg switching sides was instantly accepted by Vida's side, but Farmaun doing the same didn't get nearly the same amount of acceptance. He was the punching bag of everyone on Vida's side for tens of thousands of years despite his very real desire to repent and accepting full responsibility for his actions even though he wasn't fully responsible due to brainwashing from a powerful Guidance skill. Second, his reasoning for not trusting the evil gods is exactly the same as one of Van's for not forgiving Heinz: If they can change their minds on such serious issues, then they can change them again. How can you trust them?

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_ba0e3912	comment	Vandalieu, like Guduranis before him, is able to create barriers that can nullify most physical attacks and magic (though they have a harder time against weapons made with orichalcum metal, and light and life magic). The barriers' operating time and strength are limited only by his mana, which thanks to his [Empty Frame] quickly reaches into the billions.

It's first assumed that it was because Rodcorte gave his luck to someone else, only for it to later turn out that his past lives were just as unlucky, and in fact his death attribute tainted soul has been canceling out any low level blessing from a god, including things like "good fortune". Even on Lambda, he notes that his luck is terrible, mostly working hard (or abusing the 'Danger Sense: Death' spell) to avoid any really dangerous situation.

Ogres, Minotaurs, Orcs and Noble Orcs are always male. The way these races reproduce outside their own species varies, occasionally even by location. Vida's single gendered races can produce male or female offspring with the female always being the mother's race and the males being the father's. Arachne and Empusa always have daughters while in Zanalpadna while Orcs only have sons, unless they are in the city state of another race and mate with said race, in which case the mother's genes win, such as the aforementioned Arachne/Empusa in Zanalpadna.

This is the reason Demon King Guduranis was so dangerous, as even gods had to fear being permanently killed rather than just put out of commission by him. Van, who first gained the ability to break and then consume the souls of others, is unknowingly doing this to Demon King Guduranis, as Vida notice that whenever Van assimilates a Demon King's Fragment, it becomes part of Demon King Vandalieu instead of Demon King Guduranis, which will eventually make a complete revival in his own body impossible for Guduranis.

Simply badmouthing Darcia has on several occasions caused Vandalieu to consider murdering the person doing so. In two later ocasions, in the entrance to Alcrem capital, while the guard was testing Fang by hitting him one time to check if he was out of control, everyone around, including the other guards and Fang looked worried, when the guard noticed, Privel, Gizania and Myuze grabbed Van and said they were nervous and scared, after they passed, the other guards told him that it seems Van tried to attack him from behind when he was hitting Fang (Fang was worried because he saw it), but Privel caught him and the trio pretty much stopped Van themselves It later happens again in the Orbaume capital, same procedure, this time with Eisen being "tested", but having learned from the previous time, Van properly asks Darcia, Simon, Natania and Arthur to hold him down, the guard doesn't understand what is happening and seems scared because other guards are scatered on the floor having fainted from the pressure, but Miriam shouts at him to do it fast while Van is being held (She is clearly desperate), he eventually gives just a weak jab and lets Eisen pass.

Strong enough 'mortal' races can also be considered gods in their own right: Ternecia and the other pure breed vampires are considered deities. That being said, these tend to be demigods and subordinate gods and are quite inferior to the top rank gods. There are exceptions, though, such as Nineroad. Mortals can also become gods just by becoming strong enough, such as with the Evil Gods. Monsters of rank 13 or higher also seem to be considered lesser gods, though this doesn't come up often.

One character even muses to himself that despite the scary name it's actually more of a medical based magic, though to be fair he has a very skewed perspective on what death magic is capable of. It doesn't even have many direct combat applications, mostly being restricted to necromancy and vitality (HP) draining death balls.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_cbdd9a55	comment	We ARE Struggling Together: One reason the war against the Demon King 100,000 years ago went so badly was because of disagreements over how to proceed between the combat and creation oriented champions, especially Bellwood and Zakkart. Zakkart's group favored strategies that would leave long lasting damage such as chemical or even nuclear weapons while Bellwood's camp argued that such weapons were not guaranteed to work, would poison the air and ground and destroy land that people were fighting to reclaim. In the end the two groups went their own way, but Zakkart's group was eliminated before being able to achieve anything as the Guduranis considered them the more dangerous group and focused on them. By the time the war was over, the land was corrupted even worse than it would have been had nukes been used and the casualties were so bad that only three thousand individuals survived.

Vida fundamentalists believe she didn't do anything wrong and that races like Arachne and so on deserve full human rights as well as embracing certain values such as adapting to devil's nests rather than just trying to eliminate them. Alda extremists, meanwhile, think everything descended from Vida needs to die, all monsters need to die, all devil's nests need to go and all dungeons must be purified. Setting aside the fluff about devil's nests and dungeons and so on, where does this compromise actually leave Lambda? Going by Alda's train of thought, only committing some genocide, seemingly allowing Vida's surviving races to live on the fringes of society and still banning most technological and cultural advancement.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_cf7b362	comment	Horror Hunger: Discussed and Downplayed, while those with 'Bloodsucking' type skills do have a thirst for blood, exponentially increasing the more they level it up, they can just drink blood from any source, not necessarily from sentient race, ultimately being up to personal preferences. Given examples are Vandalieu drinking blood from the monsters he hunt (since he have no preferences) or Vampire Zombies eating blood drenched meat (since is convenient). Zombies don't have to eat the flesh of their original race, it have more to do with an undead's innate hatred against the living than personal taste. Not that they don't find it a viable food option mind you. Like above, Ghouls don't eat humans because they like it, but because of the dangerously lacking amount of food they can safely find inside Devil's Nests they see it as a waste to not make complete use of someone they already killed and ultimately see it as less wasteful than humans who just take bit or pieces when they "hunt for materials". Melissa asks Vandalieu how souls taste, wondering if he finds it to be an enjoyable experience. After a lengthy explanation that amounts to "not enough to feel a compulsion to do so", Van concludes by saying that if he ever does develop such a compulsion, they have to kill him as fast as possible. Bakunawa's main form of attack is opening his enormous mouth (about a hundred meters) and suck any enemy in front of him to eat until he is full, no matter what kind of being it is. Then he continues to eat to fill his second stomach.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_d07e8fde	comment	Ghost Amnesia: The dead often forget details of their previous lives, especially with the passing of time. Death itself causes damage while spending extended time as a spirit rather than a ghost causes further decay. The most obvious examples of this are that Darcia has a sad tendency to repeat herself in conversations because she forgets she already said something while Eisen has died twice and undergone significant time as an unprotected soul, meaning the only detail that carries over from her first life is a vague feeling that she should give Van apples. It's also assumed that Orbia carries no scars from her death because it was too sudden and traumatic for her to accept, but it's subverted in that it came as a complete surprise: She was killed by poison within seconds of it entering her system from a poisoned ring with a hidden needle.

The "Earth" that Zakkart, Bellwood and the others came from was also the same as our world, even including a Japan with the exact same language and writing system, but wasn't the same Earth that Van and the others came from. Only the world of Lambda and the homeworld of the Demon King seem to be basically distinct from the other three worlds seen so far.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_d39e327f	comment	What the Hell, Hero? Heinz's party is genuinely well meaning and truly intends to improve relations between humans and Vida's races. However, when they finally meet up with Van, he accuses them of accomplishing basically nothing of substance, prioritizing humans over races like ghouls and majin and holding terrible double standards. This actually does have a noticeable effect on all of them apart from Edgar, but unfortunately Van was just stalling for time and attacks them before they have a real chance to rethink their positions or learn from their mistakes. Interestingly, the character entries for the party actually indicate that Van was wrong: Heinz has been actively stopping slavers and corrupt merchants and bringing about reforms, Delizah is fighting for exactly the same reasons Van is and Jennifer still believes she made the right call on the majin, all of whom were bandits and terrorists anyway, not helpless villagers. But Edgar is still a jerk. Heinz himself calls Van out on the way he saved the Scylla and Sauron and the titan slaves and ghosts in Hartner, arguing that his methods will only cause more resentment against Vida's races and will likely lead to open war rather than actually improving things over time, which is Heinz's own goal. Van's response is that people were suffering unjustly now and he has no reason to let them suffer for the promise of reforms that he considers inadequate and far too late in coming.

Titans descend from Talos, the Sun Giant, and while tiny when compared to their founder, they still stand in between 2.5 and 3 meters tall.

However, the new duke immediately declares that the resistance members all died before. He believes it, but even if he didn't he already promised the rewards they should have gotten to his political backers. Seeing that his efforts came to nothing, Van chooses to simply abandon Sauron, much to the surprise of Asagi's group and emperor Marshukzarl, who believed he would have simply begun a hostile takeover. However, Van recognized there was no point to subjugating the region rather than having it slowly become aware that he had helped liberate it. He also basically curses the land that should have already been theirs if not for political scheming. The duke can't access said land and the monsters fleeing the area damage more valuable land nearby.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_e1ecdac3	comment	Our Gods Are Different: Gods are basically beings with incredibly powerful souls. That being said, there are still multiple ways a god can be born: an already living being becoming powerful enough to be considered a god (i.e. the Evil Gods), being born from the pieces of another god (i.e. subordinate gods, Lambda's high gods) or being born from belief not already going to a god (i.e. the God of Earth (the Japanese word), God of EARTH (the English word) and God of Origin). While the gods of Lambda and the Evil Gods (while alien looking) have distinctive looks, the gods of Earth and Origin are said to look like an amalgamation of every god (read: supernatural entity) of every religion, constantly fighting each other, never allowing the others to make miracles, and therefore almost completely unable to get anything done, though Rodcorte does make the gods and demons of Origin so angry that they all unanimously agree that he's a dick and screw him over. On Earth, where magic does not exist, it's even worse, as even fictional characters are entangled in that mess. Later on in the story, a goddess version of Pluto is born out of the belief of all the people that The Eighth Guidance saved.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_e491684a	comment	Odd Job Gods After the main creator gods of Lambda there are numerous gods of things like war and judgment, which makes sense given that many gods are former powerful mortals who got there with martial strength as well as gods of hunting and so on. After that, though, you also start finding gods of sleep, records and so on, though most of these are rarely terribly prominent and often a secondary part of a larger portfolio. Mills, goddess of sleep, is actually a fairly prominent goddess while Curatos, god of records, is fairly obscure since he's mostly just attached to Alda and not really worshiped in his own right. Among the evil gods there are numerous odd sounding divinities such as being a god of slime, carapaces or tentacles. The last of those three is noted to actually be fairly common in some worlds because tentacled creatures thrive there meaning it's not an odd source of divinity where they come from at all.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_e8e56799	comment	Blue-and-Orange Morality Many of the evil gods find the morals of Lambda and Vida in particular completely incomprehensible or even repulsive. Despite Van being willing to offer a few sealed gods forgiveness in return for servitude, the only ones who would have been willing to take that offer already did a hundred thousand years ago: Those like Zozogante and Fidirg tended to have more flexible minds, nothing against Vida or at least enough moral apathy to want to get away from Guduranis and a willingness to loyally stick to another strong faction. For example, Dargzoban literally chooses to have his soul destroyed rather than attempt to follow Vida's teachings while Hihiryushukaka was born from a race that has sadism as a species imperative. They can't really help being what they are and even if they tried to reform, they would inevitably do something that is perfectly natural from their POV and be executed for it. Most of Vida's races have reproductive needs that give them very different social views, though in a much more limited sense than the above. Ghouls have no concept of marriage or exclusive relationships and don't care much about things like miscarriages while races like Scylla do have marriage, but are highly polyamorous.

Many of Van's created monsters or altered followers look much older than they are. Rapiecage, for example, has the mind of a child despite looking like an adult because she was only born a few years ago. Yamata is older, but was basically mindless when under Ternecia and thus has to develop basically from scratch as well.

And also because he's a coward. The best he can manage is to send pawns to try to assassinate Van, but the problem there is that none of them trust him. While a few do try to kill Van for the promise of rewards in their next life or because they genuinely feel it's the right thing to do, at least half of them want nothing to do with someone that can break souls and some even want to join his side! Many gods are currently sealed, including Van's most significant benefactor Vida. Others who aren't still haven't recovered from two catastrophic wars a hundred thousand years ago. Alda's faction has more power to work with, but again can't really do anything directly because they're having to maintain the world with about half of the manpower that they actually need while also trying to exterminate Vida's races and fight off the demon king's evil god remnants. Many other gods in Vida's faction are also simply too busy to help Van. Zanalpadna and the others in the southern half of the continent are maintaining a barrier to protect the sealed Vida and even after her seal is broken she still needs time to recover from her grave wounds. Gufadgarn also begins working directly for Van after the Trial of Zakkart is conquered. Finally, there are the gods who can and will act directly. But unfortunately for them, they mostly tend to be the small fry gods or work through intermediaries in order to gain power. After all, they have rival gods to deal with and can't be too obvious.

Aside from being hard to manufacture in Lamdba where the necessary technology don't exist and the necessary formulas to make them actually work are different, with beings in Lambda being as strong and hard to kill as they are due to Vitality, ammunition that can actually cause noticeable damage becomes hard to come by since magic metals becomes necessary and it is more efficient to use it to make swords and other melee weapons with which one can use Skills. Vandalieu circumvents this by making gun barrels and bullets using Demon King Fragments and propeling them using telekinesis.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_eb81c601	comment	Big Damn Heroes: Subverted. The Bravers think that they are doing this at the beginning of the story when they kill the 'Undead', but are actually killing one of their own. The only people left there to save were people the Undead was doing a much better job of protecting until they showed up. Played straight later when Vandalieu saves Zadiris from being raped and sold as a slave by adventurers. Actually Vandalieu does times several times on the Cultivation Villages on the Hartner Duchy and even receives a title that augments the chances of him being nearby when the villages are in trouble.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_ebe34da1	type	The Revolution Will Not Be Vilified
The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_ebe34da1	comment	The Revolution Will Not Be Vilified: The story implicitly acknowledges that from the perspective of the average human being, Van would be a brutal tyrant or terrorist at best. However, his position is that his people have been oppressed for long enough and they are tired of waiting for "peaceful change" to come about. Yes, Heinz is working towards that goal and seems to have a reasonable shot at achieving it, but it took one hundred thousand years for a Heinz to show up and even with the most optimistic and charitable view of him and his goals, he's still only working for gradual change that will take lifetimes to achieve. People are suffering now, so why should Van play by the rules of the oppressors rather than just gathering his people up by force if necessary and placing them under his protection? In the meantime, he can also work to actually spread knowledge of things like ghoul culture, something the average person literally does not even believe exists. This places ghouls (and by extension the related races of Vida) at the level of actual potential equals rather than the Poor Victims view that Heinz rather condescendingly tries to peddle. Notably, the actual influential politicians and deities not blinded by dogma acknowledge that the struggle between them and Van is not good vs evil but rather conflicting interests at worst.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_eff83d77	comment	Mundane Utility: Expect Vandalieu and Tarea to find the most mundane use for the Demon King Fragments, from combs and clothing to movie projectors. Death Attribute magic is prone to be used this way, with it being used most of the time in early volumes as a cheap way to preserve or mature food. Duke Alcheim actually gets a little weirded out by Van casually making a soundless projector using the Demon King Eye as if it was the most normal thing in the world. He start to get worried when non of the knights in the room find anything weird with it either.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_f25b1ae6	comment	Unskilled, but Strong: Monsters tend to have less active skills at higher level than humanoid races due in part to a lack of bonuses provided by skills and in part by biology. Orcs, for example, are physically very powerful but generally lack magical aptitude. They're also only really quick when moving in a straight line, presumably much like boars being quick chargers but not as agile as something like a deer.

To their surprise, Legion doesn't care about having been betrayed because they had known from the start that Murakami's group was not trustworthy. Plus, they wanted to die anyway. It still doesn't make them trustworthy, but it means they're starting off without having to overcome anyone's grudges.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_f3d5d15f	comment	Creepy Child: After being reincarnated in Lambda, Vandalieu notices he has become unable to express any form of emotion, no matter how he feels, he will always have a deadpan face and speak in a flat tone. Added to that, his appearance is described as ghostly, with many people even believing he is a ghost or statue until he talks to them. It is implied that this is related to one of his death-attribute spells that 'kills' his presence, so this is likely due to a subconscious leak of death attribute mana.

Then there is the war between Alda and Vida and those who supported them, which ended in Vida's sealing and forcing her allies into hiding or slumber, although not before erecting the Boundary Mountain Range that separated the Bahn Gaia continent in two to protect her children from prosecution.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_f962d8a3	comment	Victory by Endurance: A favored tactic of Van's side. As early as the fight against Bugogan and his sons, Van's forces were forcing their opponents to burn mana rapidly to get any traction in battle. As soon as the enemy starts running low on mana or stamina, they become open to counters. Plus, they tend to lose concentration and start fighting more sloppily. Van also uses this tactic later on not because it's the only option available, but also to draw information out of opponents like Ervine.

This is noted to be something of a vague position: Pure Breed Vampires are just strong enough to go toe to toe with the gods while otherwise lacking any divine abilities while something like a colossus actually can grant divine protections and possess their own divine realm. Evil Gods seem to technically fall into this category as well but are usually placed in their own.

The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want a Fourth Time / int_fe0de947	comment	Moral Luck Van ends up increasingly involved with and defensive towards the cultivation villages after they're nice to him. However, they were only nice because it cost them next to nothing and might have high returns if he was even close to as skilled as he seemed to be. Van himself probably wouldn't care, however, even if he realized their initial motivation was entirely selfish since they did end up as his followers and friends. Who Van comes across and either murders or befriends is largely dependent on whether they personally wronged him, a point he would freely admit. Isla is a sadistic murderer that is forgiven and eventually rises to high status without really reforming because she failed to hurt anyone while someone like Rickert has his soul broken because he gravely wounded Iris, even though he otherwise displayed no poor behavior. Meanwhile, two of his allies are preserved because they simply happened to not have been the ones fighting Van's people.

The fact that monsters that the average (for Lambda) citizen and even soldiers can kill and that the Devil's Nests and Dungeons that birth them can be found and suddenly appear anywhere is one of the main reason that technological/cultural/economic advancement and propagation don't happen between cities. Even by Lambda standards, the Boundary Mountain Range and the area inside it, where many high ranking Devil's Nest and Dungeons exist, the Dark Continent, where the Demon King and their army originally landed and later became many highly dangerous Devil's Nests one next to another, and the Demon King Continent, the continent the Demon King Army conquered and made base at, are considered the top 3 most dangerous and uninhabitable places in Lambda. That is, for anyone who does not know about the countries inside the Boundary Mountain Range and the Dark Continent where Vida Races live.
