Like that time we tried to collapse a tunnel on him and he was fine.

“Even the last null died from blunt trauma”
I mean, technically he does. She’s standing behind him. And, well, he does still need to breath and all that.
The real question is, do you have enough time to figure out what your options are?
Ho Lee Shiiiit. If they kill her he’ll make them WISH he’d just killed them off for good.
Giving the person who doesn’t like to fight a REASON to fight never ends well. Especially when said person could actually be dangerous. It never ends well. When that reason involves grief and anger, you’re going to see things go horribly wrong.
“Demons run when a good man goes to war”
Well, they wouldn’t need to kill her, Death’s original plan of holding her hostage is still technically sound. The problem now is figuring out how to separate Kate from Phil before more of their friends arrive, andbthe twins find themselves outmaneuvered.
hears a better question given the new insights to Life’s personality i.e. him acting like Jiren in this situation do really think its going to cross his mind to take Kate hostage?
…These two have a listening problem.
The problem is not their listening skills; it is their ability to believe that the current Null (Phil) means them no harm. The last Null went Robot Santa on their a*ses before he sealed magic, and their default believe is that Phil will continue in the same vein regardless of what he says.
In previous Null’s defense, former Magi were kind of a**holes.
But yeah, these two need to really take a second to consider “hey, Null doesn’t keep his memories, it’s a new guy we can talk and negotiate with”.
At this rate all they’re doing is pushing Phil toward more and more of that thing they were so afraid of ages ago and who destroyed their lives. Yeah, I know, Phil is a good guy, but any good guy has a breaking point. Even if you merely keep poking his cheek constantly for three hours straight, he’s sure to snap. You destroy something valuable to him, and he’s sure to get angry eventually (They were planning to destroy KOREA! You have any idea what nerd-rage loss of manwa or Korean MMOs could cause?!)
To be fair, it was North Korea.
Yeah and nothing good comes from North Korea.
To be fair again, part of the reason no one has invaded North Korea in real life is that it’s highly likely to result in South Korea getting blown up as a side effect, even if the invasion is successful.
zero sum game. those games create as much rage as their loss would cause, and the rage from their loss would be temporary.
“Break the cutie” is what would happen if someone was foolish enough to seriously hurt or outright kill any of his friends. Combine that with all the power of the Null, his staff and lord knows what else he has cooking under the surface and we have “I’ll take Things Gone Horribly Wrong for $1000.”
North Korea makes some good Manhua . . .I think that and some MMOs is about it also I think they are the ones who own the original data to Dragon ball Online?
you’re thinking south Korea, north Korea is the dictatorship that has no out ports
Phil still isn’t really thinking of this as a fight, so he’s not thinking in terms of tactics or strategy – he’s just expecting his presence will end things. Unfortunately Death just capitalized on Phil’s biggest mistake – tipping his hand about his goal being to remove their magic before he actually DID it. That information has now been passed on to Life, who has the ultimate getaway tool with that sword. Phil has lost any surprise advantage he might have had.
What if Death wasn’t the one who killed the ‘first Null’ (the father of the boy about to be run over by the carriage), but rather Life, by revoking life from his target?
Well… That’s not something he can do. If he could then he wouldn’t be the life side of the coin.
These teo in a slice of lofe anime.
(Sorry not sorry)
…y’know, I thought “teleporting swordsman” seemed like an odd power set for a ‘life’ mage.
…and then I realized “oh yeah, you kind of change up your style after you get murdered by the same guy a few dozen times”. In game terms, Life’s entire build might be a PVP build designed with the (previous) null in mind. So he went for pure physical damage, as well as magic that doesn’t require direct interaction with your opponent. That seems like the best choice against someone that is defined by his magical defense.
And it’s all completely worthless because the Meta has changed in the last few thousand years.
His weaknesses? Suffocation, and hostages. The former is easily interrupted, and probably give him what he wants anyway. The latter will make him a repeat of the previous Null.
