no problem, though I must admit, this Argument only really holds, because the Author both mentions victory through science in his title and tries to explain his abilities using scientific methods. If he had just said "and then the stick was magicked into steel" reasoning with rl logic would have been futile. And as such, even if he says that he 'creates' something, it actually being transmutation instead wouldn't be out of question.

Turning wood into steel means changing the Number of Electrons, Neutrons and Protons of All the different Elements found in wood until they turn into the components necessary for steel, because while some (like Carbon) are indeed already present, others are not. Additionally, he explicitly says "create new Atoms". Also, even if reused everything he could, he would still not have everything he needs to create steel. Even if we assume he has found a way to achieve a 100% wood-steel conversion rate he would still need to create new Atoms, because Steel is much denser than wood, and as such, converting a certain volume of wood (even if there is no mass lost during the process) would result in a smaller volume of steel. So he can't just take a sword sized stick and turn it into a steel sword without creating extra mass (or taking it from his surroundings, though again the creation of new mass was explicitly mentioned).

couldn't he just ask them and then reload ? in either case he would still look like he was able to intuitively know the perfect present. Or if the person doesn't want to say it, he could just brute force it by buying different presents and then reloading if she doesn't like it, until he finds the right one.

in an incident yeah, but in a fight reloading won't help you if your opponent is faster than you. Also it's still unclear if he will auto reload upon death, so if something kills him before he has time to manually reload he's out of luck. So even if it isn't directly helpful in a fight, it could grant the few moments he may need to load himself out of a potentially lethal situation.

wasn't just his new mother not blood related?

yeah, but the previous seiji seemed to be the type of guy who would rather just limit his family Interactions to mooching off of them, so it would make sense for him to be oblivious about his families social and/or political status.

or maybe his childhood friend?

suspension bridge effect at its finest👌

he wrote them in his mother tongue, wich doesn't exist in skyrim. So not only would the person finding it have to translate a whole new language from nothing, but they must also believe that the 'scribbles' of a 6 years old are actually more than random nonsense. And even if they think that the foreign words have meaning, they have no reason to believe that it's contents would be anything worth the effort of trying to translating it.

it's been a while, so I forgot the name. Though maybe someone else will recognize it, so I will just write what I remember from the plot. As far as I remember he choose to be a Minecraft system and his host was a demihuman slave loli. After he helped her escape she was captured and "forced" into servitude by a Vampire lady. She then used the minecraft potion and crafting/enchanting system to get stronger and amass wealth. There is an arc about the faction of the Vampire, but after that he and his host started World traveling (as far as I remember). Whenever they came back, they traveled around for a bit and there were a few short "arcs" that were at most a few chapters... thats about all I remember. I hope you find it, or atleast someone else sees this and recognizes it

without question. But the question you should ask yourself isn't whether you would be human, but whether it would be better ?

I said (wrote) 5 true magics, not 5th true magic. That means all five. Also the blue is much more than simple time travel, and while we can only guess until it's capabilities are elaborated on, im pretty sure it too can grant you immortality.

he seems to have magic circuits, wich is not normal for a human, especially for dxd humans. If you also consider the previously mentioned benefits granted to him due to his connection to the root he should be extraordinarily talented by nasuverse standards. As far as I know there are only two other humans who were born with (or later gained) a connection to the root, Ryougi Shiki and Manaka Sajyou. Ryougi Shiki's is a bit different, because only one of her personalities (void Shiki) has access to that connection. Manaka Sajyou on the other hand has a below average number of magic circuits, but has her Mana Stat at the EX rank due to being connected to the root. She can use every type of magecraft and is considered to be even above magi from the age of gods. Ozymandias sees her as a goddess with the potential to swallow the world. Her only limiting factor is the number of her magic circuits, and despite that weakness she still is extremely strong. To make it short, both Shiki and Manaka have reality altering abilities as a minimum because of that connection (and one of them much more than that). magic circuits are the bridge between the soul and the physical body. Their purpose is to allow the, from the soul produced, Od to travel from the soul to the body. The quality of the circuits indicates how many "units" Od each circuit can transport, and the number how much can flow simultaneously. So even if he only had 10 circuits (wich is decidedly below average), as long as they can each "carry" 100 units at once, he will be superior (Od/prana wise) to a person who has 30 circuits wich each can at most transport 10 units at once. so no, his race, or age, or inexperience should be no reason why his connection to the source of all creation, wich gives him circuits of the highest quality, leaves him with a mana rank of E

I meant that the possibility exists, wich means the MC won't be forced to go along with the systems whims, not that he should actually ignore it

I can understand Alaya, but why would Gaia want him dead ?

she was that woman he gave to the clocktower in the first chapter of this volume, he wanted them to find out how her specific magecraft works. He himself admitted that he, at the time, was still too inexperienced with the Heavens feel to do so reliably without killing her during the process.

i think he means this

yes... good lore (if its not obvious, i dislike a lot of FGO lore, primarily the power levels shown throughout the plot)

Mit dem, eher ungünstig, zufällig passendem Wort im besonderen habe ich mich glücklicherweise bereits abgefunden als ich One Piece angefangen und es erstmals gehört habe... es bringt mich jedoch trotzdem immer wieder zum schmunzeln wenn ich daran denke, dass die VAs es regelmäßig, und auch öfter in eher ernsten Momenten, ohne auch nur mit der Augenwimper zu zucken benutzen.
