Amamiya Hiroto is unlucky. His life consisted of misfortune after misfortune, culminating in an unlucky death during an incident on a school boat trip, trying to save a girl he barely knew. After death, he met a god of reincarnation who requested that the hundred or so dead passengers—one of them being the girl he tried in vain to save—be reincarnated into another world.
Yet a series of unfortunate events forced Hiroto to reincarnate with even less luck than before, starting with nothing but a tremendous amount of Mana. His second life, far worse than his first, came to a cruel end.
However, upon meeting the god a second time, he was informed that there would be yet another reincarnation—one that had already been set in motion and could not be stopped. Not wanting Hiroto to endure a third life filled with suffering, the god cursed him before he was reborn in the hopes that he would either die quickly or commit suicide.
Hiroto was reborn once more as a half-vampire, half-dark elf. A dhampir. Not wanting a fourth life, he is determined to live this third life with the only things remaining from his previous lives—Death Magic and his enormous Mana pool.

To anyone who plans to start reading this title, be reminded that there are 3 sides of stories for this novel.
The main story, the side stories from Origin and the story of the translator’s excuses on their slow/delayed translation.
ClapClay
Well, let’s think positive – with the current speed of 1,5 chapters per month we’ll get through the remaining story in approximately 10 years, which means that most of us have a chance to see how it ends.

Remember when the translator said the donations from the period of his covid quarantine would have him backed up for 6 months? I remember. Still haven’t seen any chapters that haven’t been paid for by 1 or 2 donors.

Spoilers about the backstory of the world this story takes place in!!!
Spoilers!

Some people can’t seem to wrap thier heads around what happened 100,000 years before the main story takes place, so I’ll use an analogy to try to dumb it down a bit.
.

Pretend for a moment that the demon king and his army are a brick wall, and that wall is standing between the people of lambda and their only source of fresh water. The gods of lambda summon some people from earth to help everyone break down the wall and get to the water before everyone dies from dehydration. Zarakart suggests creating a sledgehammer to use to break down the wall, but Bellwood is against that idea because he is afraid that the people will use the hammer to hurt each other, so he wants everyone to break down the brick wall by bashing thier heads against it, and if some people die from traumatic brain injury, it can’t be helped because there isn’t a better option. Zarakart ignores Bellwood and makes several smaller hammers as practice before he tries to create a sledgehammer. Bellwood is still vehemently opposed to the creation of any and all hammers as he is using the smaller hammers to chip away at the brick wall while the people of Lambda are still bashing thier heads against the wall, so he leaves Zarakart to die of thirst. By the time Bellwood and his followers have broken a tiny hole just big enough for one or two people to squeeze through, millions upon millions of people have died of thirst and traumatic brain injuries, leaving only 3,000 alive. Despite not having been able to make it through the wall without the smaller hammers Zarakart had made, Bellwood claims that he was right all along and prevents anyone else from making hammers of thier own to widen the hole so more people can get to the water. When Vida makes some people who are able to survive with less water than normal, Bellwood claims that it is sacrilege and that all of the thirst resistant people be hunted down and slaughtered, then proceeds to attempt to murder Vida by savagely beating her with the smaller hammers Zarakart had made before he died. Vida manages to escape with crippling injuries, but Bellwood is still intent on killing her.

That is the story so far as dumbed down as I could make it. I hope it helps some people understand.

Are you ban from Reddit and Discord that you pour your summary here of all place?
Randy Rando
I don’t really use Reddit or Discord much. I’ve seen a few comments on some chapters by people who didn’t seem to understand how the two factions of gods operated saying that they agreed with Alda so I thought I would put an easy to understand explanation where many people would see it.
Humble Bumblebee
I’m not going to knock it, dude. I could wrote a goddamn dissertation on Death Mage if someone prompts me. The world building is too on point not to get that invested.
WholesomeAF
“And when you came running over, her breasts weren’t bouncing at all, despite being so big. Foolish youngster, just how many years do you think I’ve been a woman-lover?”
Thanks for the chapter! Damn what a Chad this guy is.
ScorpionXX121
Yoshi is quite good translator but I still can’t figure out when are chapters coming out I just kinda randomly open page few times a week.
HauntingHyena
That’s what happens when its like 200$ per chapter.
SeamusTheDog
And he still hasn’t dug into the sub-200-dollar donations yet. I donate once a year to see how long it takes to get to mine. Looks like this time around it’s going to be more than a year.

People’s comments are almost as good as the chapter, I wonder how people feel about the lack of lost on Van’s side and should some characters be lost in this Vol.?
HauntingHyena
Hell No. Drama for the sake of drama and tragedy for the sake of tragedy are the stupidest things in literally any story.
HeyaUser
Preach!

Testify, brother.

Characters do not “need” to be lost in a story like this one, at least not the ones on the protagonist’s side.
Van’s focus on preparation, loss prevention, and being ready and able to handily destroy or devour all exterior threats exceedingly delves into the realm of the obsessive, and not without reason.
It might seem a bit contrived how there have been little to no true casualties on Van’s side after his mother’s execution, but that is the sort of story this is, I think. It is a power fantasy of taking back everything that was taken from you, safeguarding what’s yours, exceeding boundaries, and becoming happy (to the direct detriment of active or potential aggressors).
Will Van eventually lose people? We shall see, and they better make it count if he does, and not simply because he “needs” to lose them for the sake of “game balance.”
Debudey
Is it worth reading?? I heard protagonist is a shota. And other some bad point.
🙏 anyone give me some authentic review .
Den_setsu
Yeah, It’s a really worthy reading. The story begings since the protagonist is a baby, so, yeah, the protagonist is a Shota because the story doesn’t have Timeskips.
And yeah, there are some details that could be not welcome. To begining with, the world it’s cruel and “raw” (I don’t what is the exactly word in english).
Thus, it’s not a Fairy story. But one of its strong point is that everything in this novel (or almost everything) has an explication, has a justification.
For me, it’s one of the best worldbuilding that I have read. Every Characther has his/her personality. And, Unlike other novels, the protagonist doesn’t move his world, the world moves the protagonist.
PD: Sorry if I had grammar mistakes, I’m not a English native speaker.
Demon_Lord_Yui
He is correct, this is a “Dark Fantasy” story with fantastic character development and world-building.
If you don’t mind a fair amount of Gore and horror stuff then give it a shot.
SpudCaleb
Give the manga a try if your wondering whether or not to give the series a read.
Despite not being a big fan of Dark Fantasy myself, I’d strongly recommend it, while this series does have some dark moments it’s rather light compared to the brutality of some other dark fantasies and we actually get happy endings here!
And how often do you see a character all angry and hell bent on revenge calm down and let go of his hatred because being happy and enjoying life with those who are important to him is better?
hidefreek
When Van simply destroyed all his enemy.
He, himself is God from H.P. Lovecraft mythology.
Humble Bumblebee
I cannot stress this enough: Vandalieu isn’t a Lovecraftian Horror, he’s what PREYS UPON THEM.
Vitor
correction, Van is stuff right off the nightmares of crosbreeds from lovecraftian beings and eldritch horrors
UnveilingSage
Can anyone answer which chapter Mei and Banda’s story starts and what volume it’s in? Just want to know if anyone can remember.

Is this newly translated or is it from an older volume?
thefallen
They must have reuploaded the chapters because yoshi started translating this like almost 5-6 years ago now got a job and slowed down so much I thought the story died

Just letting you guys know, I really appreciate you translating this. Thanks
