Anime, starting from Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life)

"1. Initially, the distance is five meters. 2. Mr. Gawain may not use any magic beyond his own body range, may not fly, and may not interfere with objects other than his clothing and weapons. 3. Gilena is permitted to make fatal attacks. 4. The first person to incapacitate the opponent wins."

Now, even Rudy was surprised, and Alice was counting on her fingers, not knowing what to say.

Sylphy, who was the only one who knew her brother's true nature, remained calm. Even if her brother failed to win by relying on pure magical attainments, he would never be even scratched by a mere king-level sword of light.

At this moment.

Gawain used magic to pinch out a small stone and let go.

The moment the stone hits the ground, the competition begins.

Landing.

Gileno took a quick step and then swung the sword of light forward without caring whether Gawain was still there.

Is Gawain still there?

The answer is: Yes.

He anticipated the range of Gilenu's attack and immediately used momentum magic to accelerate his right gauntlet to block it. Using multiple casts of momentum magic, he precisely countered the force of the attack with the gauntlet, neutralizing the incoming force and preventing any secondary damage to the wearer's body, which could theoretically have been injured. Simultaneously, multiple primary healing spells began to be cast sequentially, healing the theoretically injured arm, shoulder, and chest.

Under the vision of Gileno's magic eye, Gawain's arm armor released magic power layer by layer, almost instantly offsetting the power of his own slash. At the same time, green halos flashed from his chest and crawled across his entire arm in an instant, healing all of Gawain's hidden injuries.

Then, the arm armor accelerated, and Gawain waved his hand to throw Gileno and his sword away.

At the same time, the black metal began to spread from the arms to the body according to the predetermined shape. When Gileno stepped forward again and chopped out the second sword of light, the complete arm armor, shoulder armor and half of the chest armor were completed. The armor with a roughly complete force conduction structure could better share the pressure of the flesh.

But Gawain did not continue to take the blow head-on. Instead, he immediately spun along after blocking it, and used momentum magic to adjust his body posture. He then swung his fist and hit Gileno on the back. Even though he had to cast a large number of other spells at the same time and could not increase the power of this punch to be enough to win directly, he still made a noticeable dent in Gileno's back and broke at least four ribs.

She was knocked flat on the ground, bouncing like a ball while coughing up blood. Her head was spinning, and her nose was filled with the smell of rust. Even so, Gilena's fighting instincts seized the opportunity. She immediately landed on two feet and one hand, crawling away like an animal.

When she turned around again, Gawain had already completed the dark armor.

Gileno pounced on Gawain with a desperate spirit, using three limbs to stabilize his body and center of gravity, and used all his strength to chop out this career-leading sword of light.

But Gawain simply used a similar idea of ​​returning light, and directly chopped her wrist holding the sword with his palm knife, breaking the hand holding the sword at the beginning of the light sword being unsheathed, and then strangled her neck with his other hand, and slammed her heavily to the ground, causing the reinforced bricks and stones to burst into large spider web-like patterns, and the ground also sank a few inches.

Gilenu lost consciousness.

Defeated again.

After Gileno fell, Rudy and Sylphy ran over together, and Gawain removed the black armor while treating Gileno.

Under the treatment of the three, Gilena quickly regained his health and consciousness. Sylphy reprimanded her brother dissatisfiedly:

"No matter what, you can't be so harsh!"

Gawain anthropomorphically apologizes immediately:

"I'm sorry, Gileno. I was so focused on collecting data that I didn't hold back on the final blow."

Gilenu held his head and stood up shakily, saying nonchalantly:

"Don't worry about it. This is the agreed-upon scale. After all, if I had hit you, Mr. Gawain, wouldn't you have left an exaggerated wound?"

Gawain and his sister exchanged a glance, and Sylphy suppressed the urge to stick out her tongue and giggle, and the four of them walked back together.

Gawain shared the test results with Rudy and Sylphy:

"Sylphy's performance is very stable, no issues. I've also basically confirmed the situation. Before researching how to make it easier for mages to multicast, perhaps the best solution is to study how to speed up their reaction times."

"Like the Rudy fight. If we were closer at the beginning, even if Rudy's multicast ability doubled or tripled to the level I just demonstrated, it would still be useless. After all, you can't react to the enemy's attacks, let alone use multicast to perfectly deal with them."

"Large armor can solve all problems, but mana consumption becomes a new problem, right? It's completely unsuitable."

Rudy was not frustrated, he touched his chin:

"Reaction speed? Looks like we need to work on the mechanism of action of Dou Qi, right?"

Sylphy looked warily at Rudy, who had just sat down with a sinister expression on his face, and warned:

"Don't even think about doing human experiments."

Rudy cried out:

"Who do you think I am? I get scared when I kill a monster, let alone using humans for cruel experiments. Besides, you can get the data just by hiring a few volunteers."

Rudy subconsciously wanted to say, "The prerequisite is that the volunteer is not from the Sword God School," but fortunately, he was polite enough not to say the Sword God School joke that he knew by heart.

Gawain picked up the still steaming tea, took a sip, and asked:

“Do you need to withdraw the first installment of funds?”

Rudy nodded repeatedly with shining eyes. He asked excitedly:

"How about a hundred gold coins? I also want to experiment with exoskeleton-type magic armor. This way I don't have to constantly use my body to drive it, but the reaction speed will be slightly slower."

Gao Wen said casually:

"I'll approve 10,000 for you."

Rudy was so happy that he rolled his eyes. You know, he was still living a life of breaking a silver coin into two halves yesterday. Oh my God, girl Wu Si, come out and conquer the domineering president in front of you!

Alice, who had to count to ten on her fingers, asked curiously:

"Is ten thousand gold coins a lot? Teacher Rudeus has become like this!"

Sauros lovingly explained to his granddaughter:

"Of course it's a lot. Rudeus wouldn't make that much money in a hundred years as your teacher. Now, Alice, do you understand how difficult it is to have Rudeus as your teacher?"

Alice shook her head honestly:

“I don’t really know!”

Sauros laughed heartily:

“That’s why we have to study hard!”

Influenced by the blood on the corner of Gileno's mouth, no one dared to ask Gawain to explain the previous battle, so everyone just ate cakes and chatted like enjoying afternoon tea, and Sauros did not leave in a hurry to deal with things he thought were important.

Only after everyone had dinner together did they disperse one by one. In just a few hours, Alice almost became a big fan of Sylphy. In order to facilitate Rudy's future work, Sylphy did not forget to instill some ideas such as "rich knowledge = strong combat power" into Alice.

Gao Wen left a message:

"I'll send someone to bring your luggage tomorrow morning. Have a good rest tonight. I'll send someone to pick you up and play on your day off."

So he took his sister away.

Note: The mixed magic in the original work is multiple casting, such as [Quarantine]. Rudy's non-chanting mixed casting basically releases several kinds of magic at the same time.

The multiple spells that will become common starting from the second volume basically use the same method: the instantaneous high-frequency release of [Momentum Magic].

Before the fundamental nature of mana and magic is thoroughly explained, the new spells used by the protagonists are essentially derivatives of chanting magic. While flexible, their mana costs are still influenced by the original text. Momentum Magic is the most cost-effective, as can be seen in the original story: increasing the speed of rock cannonballs within a reasonable range requires little mana.

The purpose of multicasting is to achieve better results within a reasonable mana consumption.

Assumptions:

The standard water ball magic consumes 1 unit, of which the momentum part consumes 0.01 unit, and the kinetic energy imparted is 100,000 joules.

So, perhaps, increasing the granted kinetic energy by 10 times would require consuming 100 times the magic power, or 1 unit. However, if the granted kinetic energy is increased by 100 times, according to the setting of the first volume of No Job, the more it deviates from the standard state, the more outrageous the consumption becomes, perhaps it will become 100000 times the magic power, or 1000 units.

In other words, increasing the effect by increasing magic power is like a multiplication of exponential growth.

But multicasting is independent addition and subtraction.

用十次10倍动量，消耗1单位×10的魔力，就能达成一次100倍动量的效果（消耗1000单位×1）。

If the spellcasting ability is stronger, using 1x momentum a hundred times would only consume 0.01 units x 100 magic power.

Remarks on the launch (late version)

I'm used to updating regularly and forgot to write a thank you note for the book being published (I only mentioned it at the end of the first few chapters).

Although the performance of this book is very bad, at least the story of Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life in Another World) will be completed well, after all, it is almost finished (bushi).

Updates are tentatively scheduled to be 5 updates per day (10k+).

If I feel constipated in writing after changing the world, it is possible that the daily update will be reduced to 4 chapters and 8k words after counting the accumulated manuscripts.

As for the update time, I thought about it and decided that it would look better if I released them all together, so I didn’t bother with the extra exposure that would come from updating them separately.

Starting from tomorrow, all updates will be scheduled between 8:00 and 9:00 p.m. (one chapter every ten minutes, so all will be released at 8:30 or 8:40).

--------

Now that we have finished talking about the update-related topics, let’s talk about some random stuff.

The author is currently nearing completion of the third volume, the Great Shift (which is roughly the size of the first two volumes combined), and it's no longer connected to the original plot, making its conclusion quite painful. To put it in perspective, the human god is now the one who least wants the demon god Laplace to be resurrected.

Gawain's growth rate is also much faster than the author initially expected (there are many cases where not growing would be more dramatic, but in order not to destroy his character, his family and friends will definitely help him grow), so that the giant baby breaking through the defense that the author wanted to write was completely abandoned.

If the performance of this book improves in the later stage, the long-term main line will actually be sorted out.

To put it simply, in the world of Musashi, Gawain is given humanity, in the next world, he is given ideals, and in the next world, he starts a long-term mission of saving the world, and that's it. It can even be an infinite cycle of never-ending money-making (bushi).

The first part of "WuZhiZhu" will be about three to four volumes, depending on whether I want to cut out the shortest fourth volume. After it is finished, I will change the world. After the next world ends, I will return to the reincarnation world of "WuZhiZhu" to solve the problems of lifespan theory and the problem of humans and gods.

In other words, "No Job" should be 5-6 volumes in total. There will be plots about children and plots about the family members traveling across worlds, but it should not be about the children falling in love, and I don't really want to write about it.

The situation of the love line is: currently the non-job part is likely to only accept Sylphy and Roxy.

By the way, let me dispel a rumor: Qixing and Qiuren are not in a relationship. Qixing just has a crush on Qiuren, and it may not even be a double relationship (laughing to death). But it is highly likely that Qixing will not be accepted. The differences in all aspects are too great.

And Nanahoshi is not a loli.

Oh no, it's not maternal enough.

------

I also saw many people asking questions about Sese, which will be in the later part of the third volume, very late.

If there is a sequel, it will be in the middle or later stages.

Also, Lala will be born, but probably no one will know that she is the destined savior, and she won't have to leave her hometown at a young age and never return to save the world.

(Neither humans nor gods care about her, the so-called destined savior. She is an abandoned child of the old version.)

(Spoiler alert, the children first appeared in the second world through a method similar to time magic. Yes, it was all done by Lala)

As for the children, the blue and green families will each have two children at least. Their names will remain the same (at least the abbreviations will be the same) for easier identification, just like the power of destiny. However, there will be some changes to things like hair color.

------

Let me follow the trend and complain a little more.

Explain by the way.

Although the direction of the book is controlled by the author, the details are all based on the character settings. The author can only try his best to avoid Gawain becoming a beast before anthropomorphizing him. After all, his three views are still based on the Vitrum Empire, or in other words, based on interstellar civilization.

Even if we take Sylphy's morality as the standard, it is at best at the medieval level, and it cannot be compared with modern people in any way.

However, there are also some places that seem to be very advanced, such as the fact that nobles and kings are shit.

It is completely impossible for Gawain to obey the local rights rules of the world without a job. He did not rebel, but simply wanted to live a peaceful life. He could not have rebelled for the welfare of civilians. At best, he felt that the efficiency was too low (but the exploitation of the Weixing Empire is also a utopia for civilians without a job).

It is impossible to respect him, because in the third volume he will kick the king's head like a ball.

There will be no revolution, only the visible hand of an interstellar empire.

Perhaps, in conclusion, being ruled by Gawain is a good thing for the vast majority of people, but in essence it is still a milder version of the Weixing system. Gawain's true respect for civilization and its individuals will have to wait until the second world grants him.

that's all.

Chapter 11 Night Talk

After being left behind by Gawain and Sylphy, Rudy stood there alone, feeling that something was wrong.

But soon, two maids came over and said respectfully:

"Mr. Rudeus, please follow us."

Rudy nodded. This was indeed the process. The next step would definitely be to take him to the room where he would live in the future.

Then the three of them wandered around the castle until the two maids stopped at a large door and knocked. Rudy suddenly realized how things were going to unfold.

"Please come in."

Sure enough, it was Philip's voice.
