I remember hearing that was the only 'confirmed' time, but that it was iffy whether or not she was actually drunk or if it was placebo. There's also the idea that it's only all that effective against elves what with different biologies and whatnot.
I don't think the costs would be too much for the teachers themselves since it's pretty much a dice roll as to what terrible fate awaits them. No matter what though it'd be bad enough to get you to vacate the position, and if there's no easy way you're going to die or be permanently impaired. I'd sacrifice everything I owned to deal with. And then I'd demand recompense from both hogwarts and dumbledore.
Makes sense...but most of the teachers are 40-50+ at the youngest. That's all completely ignoring the fact Britain's greatest wizard is the headmaster, so no matter how amazeballs voldy was at ~20 he still wouldn't match Dumbledore in his prime years.
I had a whole short story's worth of a rant going and decided to just scrap it all since I realized I was putting much more effort than even the author into scrutinizing their work. MC's system eventually becomes the basic mission system you probably hate already(the ones with the 'do this or lose the system'), and it even gives bs op abilities that only vaguely relate to what he did to 'earn' it. The 'ai assisted' might as well be 'ai dictated' because it feels like the author never corrects it, even when it clearly breaks the story. My breaking point was when the reward was essentially a retroactive and permanently applied 3 tomoe sharingan. You know because studying so hard naturally deserves a reward of perfect memory and visual perception buffed to the extreme. All that and more is just base state brainpower so no chakra consumption like those pathetic uchiha and their parlor tricks. There was also some very obvious hinting that MC's going to develop medical ninjutsu in such a way as to make tsunade look stupid for being too "superficial" in her application of the technique she invented.
They'd need to fork over the money for the bounty whilst funding is split and being spent on a civil war, doubt even if they could afford it they'd would cut into emergency funds.
That's just artificially increasing the jiggle no jutsu, natural formations have otherworldly impacts that no mere mortal can comprehend.
Tbf though, how is she supposed to know that naruto and sasuke have the bs reincarnation powerboosters? Logically being trained by one of the sannin should've put her on the same level as naruto who was similarly trained by jiraiya and sasuke by orochimaru. It's just for some reason the impossible combination of kyuubi+senjutsu somehow just works for him which launched his powerlevel to astronomical levels. Then there's sasuke with his eternal mangekyo that had been erased from history, and all that's left is mentions of it is left in undeciphered uchiha records as a mythical level that's never been reached before. The only reason Sakura is 'weaker' than them is because the original author heavily neglected everyone's progression in favor of ending the series with just the 2. I mean sakura was pretty much the protege of tsunade and didn't even get a summon, but sasuke got one despite orochimaru planning to kill him before he fully grows into power.
So much for 'no cheat' and only rewarding the effort put into things. The golden reward is literally a 'here's an op buff for something you've never even tried yet'
I wonder if the author knows that it's actually much tougher to intentionally slow your actions and thus a better training technique? I want you to imagine a swordplay routine where you cycle through different stances. You'd imagine the peak expert to go lightning fast, completing the whole dance before you even recognized any of the stances. That'd be terribly wrong though, since it's no longer practicing but just going through the motions to them. The real hard part is going through their habitual actions but much more slowly. It puts a lot of stress and focus on the individual muscles and micro movements constantly trying to offset the maneuvers. It's much more exhausting both physically and mentally to limit yourself. For this story, a good way to limit yourself but still training would be to jump everywhere instead of running. Outwardly it's identical in performance, but the muscles and how they're being used are very different in execution. It scales well too the more limits you put on yourself like 'no landing on twigs' all the way to 'each leg needs to be used twice in a row before switching' and etc.
My thoughts exactly, the other two are akin to ability or stat boosts but the last one is so generalized it might as well be an exp buff. Combined with the fact that chakra is constantly touted as a combination of physical and spiritual/mental means it's also secretly a boost to max chakra as well. It might even tip the scales of chakra nature towards yin.
