To be honest The Death Mage Who Doesn't Want A Fourth Time isn't like your typical isekai story that the MC can get strong in a matter of minutes nor is it a barbaric novel where the MC will and must kill the people who have done bad to him in his past life, honestly this novel started with a dark start making us believe it will likely end up like Arifureta or The Brave Tale of The Forsaken Hero buuuuut it didn't go in that direction the main character Vandalieu is a character who seems emotionless and doesn't particularly care about those who killed him in his second life at most you may think when will he do his revenge already but chill things only get interesting after vol 3, his revenge? He does in his own time and it won't be as brutal as what you see in Nidome no Yuusha either nor will he go insane cause of his past. He moves forward, I thought that this story will be a lot like Kuro no Maou that he will always be weak and will always fail BUT he actually pulls through despite the negative reviews this novel is top notch in world building, it doesn't leave the backgrounds of its characters hanging on a thread of information with lack of depth, and it actually delivers on its revolution, it makes you see that you should pay attention to the side stories that is how deep it is. So for those seeking a novel full of revenge and blood and gore n stuff this ain't for you but if you are in for the journey of this dhampir who got nothing but death attribute and his enormous mana then welcome to the parade EDIT (1 and half year later) : An almost two years in and the novel still gives a punch and brings entertainment to all who would love to read it. I mean I have read it for the longest time possible and it only gets better, the MC gets more allies and he takes it slow without a single worry about who or what is coming after him. I mean this novel wasn't even looked at when it first began but look where it is now, its in the top 5 as no. 2 and it sure delivers when you see the negative reviews about this novel please scoff and say "Elite pro-readers lol (kusa) "
