From Overshadowed to Overpowered: Second Reincarnation of a Talentless Sage

As long as you have that special slave crest,

you're fated to automatically return to your master, once every six months!

No matter where you go, you'll never escape that fate!

Girlie.

You alone?

Whatcha doin'?

A girl shouldn't be out alone this late at night.

Hey, are you listening?

You've got nice legs.

Oh, she's a sex slave!

Seriously? And the link with her master is cut?

This is great!

From now on, you can have fun with us.

We won't kill you.

You're good at this stuff, right?

We'll just have some fun!

Come on!

The world is filled with evil and unfairness.

Come on, strip her clothes off, dumbass.

Abe was right.

Let's get you undressed.

This special slave crest stops me from being able to die or run away.

I will never be able to escape.

I don't care...

I just don't care what happens anymore.

This world is nothing but darkness.

She's...

with me.

Get lost!

W-We're sorry!

Don't hurt us!

Hey, Anastasia.

Y-Yes?

Why did you take Raikiri without a word?

I'm sorry! It's because of this special slave crest...

I asked the wrong question.

Why didn't you tell me about it?

B-Because...

Even if I told you...

The special slave crest I bear cannot be removed, no matter what you do.

The slave contract of the crest is absolute and protected by a god.

No single person can do anything about it.

The power of a god?

Who cares?

Do you know who I am?

I'm Eftal Orcott!

You know Eftal Orcott, the Lightning Emperor, right?

Th-The legendary sage?

Yeah.

That's me.

I ended my life as Eftal, the Lightning Emperor, and was reborn in this body.

R-Reborn?

So, Master, you're one of the legendary Four Emperors?

I-It's... almost impossible to believe...

Come on, Anastasia.

You've been with me for a while now. What have you seen?

Don't assume you know what I'm capable of.

Level 4! Sylphy's Leap!

Level 8. Perfect Dispel.

Level 10. Eftal.

I took you in.

And I knew everything when I did.

I've got your back, so don't worry about a thing.

M-Master?

What?

I... I...

I can't do anything more on my own.

Please... Please save me!

Sure. Leave the rest to me!

Second Reincarnation of a Talentless Sage

Just what I'd expect to see from the Portes family!

Such a wonderful katana!

This is almost a national treasure!

Right?

We're super-important nobles! So it's natural we'd have it.

It has a lot of historical value too.

So?

How much can I get for it?

How about a thousand gold...

No, five thousand gold!

Five thousand gold?

Not bad!

Then it's yours for five thousand gold.

Really?

Of course, I don't have that much money on me today, so I'll come back.

Yeah, you've got a deal.

Drink all you'd like before you leave today.

I will! Thank you!

And I get three more just like this one, too!

I can't believe it...

I'm gonna make a ton of money off you.

You're back already?

Have you accepted that no matter where you go, you'll never escape?

Um, uh...

Give it... back.

I can't hear you!

Give back the katana!

What did you say?

All right, I understand the situation now.

Let's go get Raikiri back.

U-Um...

Master, you're not mad at me?

Why would I be?

I betrayed you! I stole your katana!

Did you want to?

I... I didn't want to...

But I can't escape my slave crest.

So slaves like me don't think about what we want to do.

Is that really true?
