Some details on the setting
Hi all, I'm quite a fan of this series, and am quite pleased to see it getting some attention. Seeing as some plot spoilers have been posted, I would like to add some details on the setting, etc.
Bear in mind that this is purely from the web-novel, though supposedly changes between WN and LN are minor. Also, Japanese is barely passable, so some of the details have been supplemented by reading Chinese translations (which are up to date to the latest WN chapter). I'll try to leave out plot spoilers as far as possible. Spoiler for Levels:
Spoiler for The hero:
Spoiler for Demons, demon lords, etc.:
Spoiler for Skills and abilities:
Spoiler for Summons and Reincarnations (i.e. the Japanese):
Spoiler for Major spoilers! Fragments and the demon lord:
As mentioned, the above infodump is based off a mix of my own translations and Chinese translations, up to the latest WN chapter. Feel free to point out any mistakes I've made and I'll correct it. Last edited by poorep; 2015-02-05 at 03:44. |

well, that answers the OP-ness of the demon lords...
but if the demon lords they had encountered so far were corrupted reincarnated persons, then who is the demon lord that revives every 66 years??? ...unless that's the time defeated demon lords get to be revived....... @pooprep so far how many Japanese people have the main cast encountered as of late?

Some more regarding the two versions of Meteor Shower.
First version which he uses at the start is the 'cheat' version, which can only be used 3 times. Here, there is a divergence between the WN and LN. In the WN, he only uses it once at the start. In the LN, he spams all 3 at once at the start. The second version, which is a skill, costs 1000MP (bear in mind he has 3100MP, though he cheats his way into basically having infinite MP later on). Remember that his 'true' cheat ability is to basically to able to gain any skill/ability after 'experiencing' it once. It is probably his most powerful skill in terms of damage, other than 1 of his swords, but Satou has mentioned that the area it encompasses is far too large for him to use in normal circumstances. In line with his rather carefree attitude, he only uses it again after setting up extensive precautions to contain the impact. |

So does the term "Death March" ever get relevant again?
Also from what I'm getting from the translated chapters, all his tinkering kinda' makes his "Programmer" background not that relevant at all since a lot of gamers can pretty much do what he does (w/o reading the manual...kinda' like what most gamers do). (Just started going for the Raws)

Well, maybe he goes somewhere else and uses Meteor again?
If he goes on a worldtour and "marks" every noteworthy location with a meteor (causing tons of damage/death) you could say it is a "march of death". Other then that, I don't think his RL-Background will be important at all, or even mentioned again. |

It's entirely useless in most circumstances, as it's way too powerful. The spell is basically a WMD, and wipes out an entire zone without discrimnination. He uses it one more time in a battle later on to destroy a very powerful opponent, but it only serves to reaffirm how it should never be used.
