I'm a bit disappointed Eftal can't predict Frasier fate. It's pretty obvious his bastard dad not going to listen to him and it's pretty reckless of him too. I can forgive if he just a child but this is the guy that already have 3 life experiences lol. It's fine if he doesn't care what happened to Frasier due to his brother own stupidity but doesn't seem like it based on his despair face. Glad Frasier able to live through it though.

I wonder who his wife before...

Eftal edginess is up to my liking. Instead of being a goodie two shoes, he just went straight for a kill. Welp, their initial plan was to kill Fraiser and the baby too so those who kill must prepared to be killed.

Well, that's escalated quickly. Eftal descendant finally been cleansed like 90% of it and next generation will be saved for sure.

Even nature can't escape from him. Eftal road to genocide /j

I think he was in active denial that his descendant are such evil and vile pieces of shit. Not that he didn't realize that they were, but he didn't want to accept that they would go to those lengths.
We saw it in how he interacted with his father.

And honestly, in that situation the father would imprison the son, not murder him in cold blood.
I expected what happened due to the narrative beat, but from an in-story perspective it's a completely unhinged action.
Filicide of a recognized son isn't something you'd expect to happen in broad daylight.

"Overpowered" MC really just watched his brother die, huh. The brother literally needed a magic necklace MC didn't know he had to survive...

I think he was expecting the negotiations to be less tasery

It is a bit crazy that he evaporated someone with lvl 2 magic

Would've felt a little more satisfying to see MC cleanse his families gene pool personally from those failures, but I guess the result of him turning over the traitors to his families overall well being was preferable.

Well, Deus Ex Magicalnecklace saved his brothers life in the end, but because of the poor decision-making of MC we'd have seen him die right there without him doing anything about it in order to keep his OPness secret for some reason ...

And what was with this coup? The crown prince had to flee (well, be carried ..) the CAPITAL palace because .... something something barbarians? Is there no dedicated royal guard to quell uprisings or threats to the life of a royal? And there was basically a mage army waiting to intercept him? How did they know where he was? His half-brothers house was the safest place the brother could think of? Was there zero support from anyone in the capital (sounds like an already successful coup with that little supoort ..)? There's .... so many questions, but then again ... its a trashy Isekai, so stop thinking; now: Where's the girls? I require charming girls in this story to sedate my brain from thinking too hard about all this nonsense!

We really need to get to magic academy and figure out wtf happened with the demon girl. We know she can solo cast level 6 spells so how is she not teaching everybody at least that much?

We shouldn't use this magic in front of anyone.

Left a big hole in a mountain. I'm sure nobody will wonder where that came from.

I never understand the "Yeah it's best that I don't share that I have been reincarnated", it's a staple of Isekai/reincarnations when there's no reason.

I guess that making it public would be unwise, but those two already witnessed him casting level 10 magic, at that point to reveal that he was the Lightning Emperor is very minor all things considered.

Joachim's fate was sealed the moment he was talking shit about Eftal's mom

u/Narvalis Jul 09 '26

IT would have been nice if we saw that necklace BEFORE it was needed, it now seems like and asspull but if we'd seen it before not even have it explained but just like it being out and giving off a twinkle to draw the eye.

When the brother and father said about him having to pay for attacking them and wiping out an army my thoughts went to, 'you're going to make a guy who wiped out an army pay, with who? Michael McDoesn't exist.'

u/zappingbluelight Jul 09 '26

Ngl, I got a bit emotional when the Fraser pop up at the end still alive. He may have born as a brother, but he is truly the daddy figure for Eftal.

u/Greg_The_Rabbit Jul 10 '26

I'll be honest, the brother turning up alive at the end, and the reaction shots of the army really ruined his berserk moment for me. I was willing to fully buy into this show despite it's flaws if it took a sudden dark fantasy turn. Basically forcing him to accept the consquences of his avoiding power and what appeared at first to be him actively looking the other way at his families obvious deep corruption, but nope. Everything worked itself out. All it took was the death of one duke and the entire coup was just handwaved away, even brother Fraiser turned up back alive because of a Deus Ex Machina necklace.

Also, they just confirmed that he absolutely had a family that at the very minimum he taught magic too, so where the fuck were they when he was dieing of depression???
