Even at the height of his power in his previous life he was powerless in the face of the demi-gods, the time it would take to get back to that point and then surpass that in his new life would take way to long with how fast the plot is developing with the demi-gods soon to be revealed plans. As far as wanting to defeat them as a human, or to keep his human identity, the moment he was reborn as Frey he was no longer fully human. A product of humanity with the intervention of the demi-gods gave birth to a new being. Being able to have both mana and divine power is proof of that. But I do agree somewhat with what you say.
i dont oppose him taking the divine power, what im saying is that he decides to take the divine power so quickly like thats not a big problem to him at all while the Frey in the ln really struggled to decide. maybe its because the author cant add that detail cause that would take too much effort and time so he/she decides to make Frey accept the divine power asap, but doing that smh ruin a bit of the Frey i know ( still love the manhwa tho )
He might just have been thinking extremely quickly.
Oh, I kind of seem like a idiot, I didn't realize there was a LN. If that's the case then I see what you mean. Maybe he thought it wasn't an important enough moment, kind of like a bit of the recent arc in TBATE.
hmm…..its weird that Frey would throw away his humanity to defeat the demigods… the Frey i see in the ln is someone who is proud of being a human and would do anything to kêp his human and mage identity. he definitely hates demigods and wants to kill them, but he wants to do so in his human and mage form. thats why he hesitated so much about taking the diven power…
