I wouldn't say it's entirely manipulation since it's not as though he knows whether his current life and next life would be considered the same or different parallel universes.
Skeleton still can’t seem to protect anything. The ”side characters” are still more interesting than the Skeleton
Issac seems to be investing heavily in the MC’s future “deaths”.
How much exp is full form issac worth? He’s a God’s general only below the Crow demon lord.
This reminds me of Berserk's 4 Demons having control of fate all due to Causality. I guess a greater law of reality's power requires the use of such event for it to be used...
Partly because Isaac honestly has started to like the skeleton.
But I also suspect a big part of it is that he hopes that he can be free in another timeline with the help of the MC if he kills himself in this one to get on his good side.
One does not necessarily have to exclude the other...
@hiimtummy Thank you for that. So there really is a novel. Sadly I am gonna pass on that since the mtl translation of korean novel is really one of the worst thing i have ever encountered. If only this one is a chinese novel, The mtl translation can probably be tolerated since even the google translated of it is still readable but since it is korean novel, no chance at all.
