Sommaire
Hiroto Amamiya's first life quickly and tragically ended alongside his classmates'. In his second, due to a mishap on God's part, he was reborn with immense magic but also the same degree of bad luck. After enduring years of torture, this life also ended as he was gunned down by his former classmates.

While Hiroto is consumed by a lust for revenge, God hopes that he can let go and forgive, so he promises the boy that after using his third life to calm down, his fourth will be peaceful. Thrust into the world of Lamda, Hiroto is reborn as a dark elf-vampire half-breed. However, while he retains his immense magic, God has cursed this power so that it remains sealed away.

Hiroto—now named Vandalieu—is showered with love by his mother, Darcia, but tragedy rips this peaceful life away. Deciding that he doesn't need a fourth life, the infant death mage Vandalieu sets out on a journey alongside undead companions, ghouls, and other terrors of the night.

It does start quite good, the premise is quite generic for a reincarnated isekai, but the revenge touch is a good idea. However, everything slowly goes downhill from there. If I had to pinpoint the moment when it's starting to lose in quality it would be when they join the ghoul village.
But unlike a lot of bad/mediocre LN is not that nothing made sense from the beginning or that it suddenly goes stupid, it's the combination of an accumulation of stupid shit happening and disappointments until one little stupid thing is too much.

But let be positive for an instant because that book is far from having no positive:
- most the characters are okay/good, they're likable some of the enemies are interesting and even if he also is an issue the MC is cool a lot of the time.
- the power system is as a whole quite good with interesting idea
- there's some enjoyable kingdom building
- the revenge story is good even if kind of forgotten later on
- and surprisingly there's an interesting reflexion on revenge and forgiving

But that last part is also a disappointment so let switch to the bad part:
- bad worldbuilding, at first it's kinda cliché, nothing more but as the story advances it became more and more obvious that the author is bad with worldbuilding especially when it comes to handling long time periods which is a problem since he uses a lot of them.
- the writing is also not very good, for example, we're regularly told how crazy the MC is (or his craziness skill level up which is the same as telling us) but it never really shows through his actions which stay logic and fair even to his enemy.
- speaking of the MC he is too op, which is not always a problem to take a similar type of setting Mushoku Tensei and The faraway paladin handle op MC very well. The problem here is that the MC's powers are quickly able to do anything even when it makes very little sense since his magic is supposed to be limited to Death and yet, for exemple, he is able to developed life which ties with the bad worldbuilding. Even more, since he starts with quite a number of limitations and is suppose to be cursed in a way that prevents him from quickly becoming powerful.
- There's a number of other little problems (bad pseudo harem, the plot not really making sense at times, ...) but let's end on what's probably the biggest problem: the Manicheism. A little isn’t a problem but when the series is supposed to be a dark revenge story it's already somewhat bad, but when it's to the point that knowing a character gender and race is all you need, to know if it's gonna be a bad guy or a good guy then it makes the story boring. And obviously, every good guy are perfectly good while half the bad guys become perfectly good (that's here that you need to know the gender), the other half being bad beyond saving for no real reasons.

To conclude, it's not really good, and I wouldn't really recommend trying it since like I said it's not bad from the beginning, so you might like the beginning but 6 volumes later drop the series, frustrated with the feeling of having lost your time (and I speak from experience here ^^).
