Now, you may ask how this is different from Van's god eating, but there's actually quite a few ways it can be.Īs it notes in the chapter, the cannibal god becomes a new god (共食いと強奪の邪悪神), a result different from, of course, any of the parts used to make him, with the mountain god not even becoming a significant part due to being partially destroyed already by the demon lord. The Cannibal god is likely a similar situation, it's just he likely had good affinity with the God of Deprivation, both being gods that essentially take other's shit and makes it their own in different ways. He was affected permanently and irreversibly. He effectively became a completely different entity from all of the parts used to make him. Like Zantark became unable to speak normally and at the time of the fusion, went on a rampage. Unlike Van, the Fire God and the Cannibal God respectively likely underwent more of a fusion than absorption, but with one personality reigning primarily dominant at the end. This is mostly speculation, but I'll give it a crack. I'm starting to wonder now what makes Van's God Devourer and Soul Devourer different from cases like that Evil God of Cannibalism, Zanalpadna (who absorbed each other), Zantark (who absorbed two deities) and others. PS The author is taking a break so instead of a 4 day break between chapters there'll be an 8 day break. Such a thing would also show to the duke that Van isn't hostile. That would help the gods that are moving to Vida's side and also means that Van isn't tied to the city so he might like that. Maybe Van will propose to say that the face peeler assassinated the knights but was stopped by Arthur's group - technically they did come to the town due to receiving an oracle from their gods and they are officially aligned with Alda so this might be an easy sell. If Van can talk to the ghosts (eg holy water wasn't able to be used in time) then maybe he can be satisfied that the duke is innocent. That would mean the duke just lost two (or three since IIRC the bad knight had a friend) of his knights and possibly earns Van's enmity. I wouldn't be surprised if the face peeler knight kills the other one and tries to ambush Van during the tea party. I think this was just 1 hour before the tea party was due to begin. I'll need to re-read the bit carefully but I think he got caught red handed by one of the other knights. Van's ghosts have been checking it out but some places are protected with barriers.Īnd yeah, the "false face peeler" turns out to be one of the duke's knights. Apparently it'll be big enough for Van to bring all his "tamed monsters".
The tea party itself will take place in the courtyard. The meeting itself is an informal "tea party" at a quiet location - a mansion typically used for secret or unofficial meetings. They have been investigating the "face peeler" and they've spotted signs of using holy water being used, which is highly unusual - it would only be effective against Van and the spiritualist that he's heard about and he wonders about looking into people buying lots of holy water. He also offers to take Arthur's group to Talosheim is anything goes wrong. Van makes it clear (yet again) that he's not interested in hanging around in the capital and if anything goes wrong he'll leave immediately. I'll re-post something I posted elsewhere. 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.Is the face peller one of the five knights? Hiroto was reborn once more as a half-vampire, half-dark elf. 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.
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. His second life, far worse than his first, came to a cruel end.
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. 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. 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.
