She said the conditions are satisfied. Do you understand the context of that or do I need to write it out for you with diagrams as well?

It's only when they get handouts that I think they should at least have a permanent or repeated negative consequence for its usage.

-> survives a deadly holy poison ripping his body apart

-> didnt work for it

Yeah, this handout thing of yours is BS and you know it.

Wut.

Triana is a result of the box opening while talking to the two previous hosts at the beginning of Kyoto. Did you actually read this?

Risk alone does not warrant a reward, it's action that warrants a reward. And Issei literally did not perform any actions to survive Amrita. He didn't even know it could damage him, let alone have a risk of death. If Issei explicitly knew Amrita had a high risk of killing him and yet he decided to brave it out and still drink it to get his additional power, then that would have been ok even if not perfect. However, that's not what happened.

Kek.

Yeah, the poison that drove Issei unconscious, who endured the poison of the Dragon Killer while maintaining consciousness, was not at all dangerous to him in any way.

Indra tells him to surpass it and Cao Cao even says he's surprised at how quick Issei woke up. Issei had to fight past it to get back up.


Seriously, this hangup of yours isn't even petty anymore, it's nonsensical. You're arguing that something that nearly killed Issei is less legitamite then off-screen training, that a fusion technique is a better sign of growth than unlocking your own potential, and that the things Issei gets as direct consequences of his actions going back a dozen volumes are "handouts" while other people who were literally just born special somehow earned theirs.

And that's ignoring the numerous factual errors you've built this theory around, like Ddraig's seal, Issei's power, Triana and so on.

Stop digging yourself deeper.
