Ahaha, funny how people that have shit for arguments always resort to petty insults.
Let's say you get blackout drunk one day, you wake up in the same bar, all your friends you were supposed to protect are dead around you, you're the sole survivor, covered in blood, but none is yours... and you have drawn weapons in both hands.
Would you agree that you are still at least partially responsible for the massacre?
Would you maybe think that you might have been the culprit, even if you don't remember it?
Now, that was for her past-future that no longer happened...

Let's change the situation to better reflect what happened in the present:
Get out of the bar with your friend to fight a big dude, blackout for whatever reason, wake up tied up with a rope and attached to the back of your friend, he is covered in bruises and injuries and tells you you went berserk and attacked him, and it's apparent that your friend is protecting you nevertheless...
Would you give at least an apology?
Maybe a thank you?
Or would you rather tell him to "leave everything to me, trust me!", knowing full well that you are actually the cause of the injuries?!?

And she knows that she lost control and attacked... she didn't remember, but it's clear she knows now... I know that because I read the pretty bubbles... it seems like you should too.
Here's the part she admits it, maybe try to read it this time:

You can't do that...
You can't say there's 3 stories with Heavenly Demons waifu and not tell us the name of said stories...

I'm guessing this Boundless Necromancer is one, and there's SSS-Class Suicide Hunter too... But I can't think of a third...

"Just trust me" she says... she just put him in the worst possible situation, almost killing him, and she did so purposefully, but she asks to be trusted...

Mmmh, this seems slow.
I'm OK with a bit of a flashback, to explain the backstory of a character we don't know much about, but make it quick, snappy... this seems like it's gonna take a while...
I prefer to see a side character in the present and judge them by their current actions,
I usually don't care WHY they act like douchebags, they shouldn't act like that at all...

This character seems to have some trust issues, and I can already tell more or less why from what was shown here. I really hope next chapter isn't a full flashback again...

I concur with you, I don't like that much.
But at least, that's not what is happening here.... yet.

By the way, it's not really "in modern mediums"... that's a really old issue... Rurouni Kenshin, Samurai Deeper Kyo, Yuyu Hakusho, HxH... that issue was already there when I started reading manga 30 years ago.

That great, and up until "she's a one man army", that was a perfect answer...
But please use the spoiler tag for the rest, please?

OK, that was actually not too bad.
Japanese MCs refusing to use force under any circumstances is really boring, but he didn't go this route 100%.

He clearly showed real power as deterrent, and reading that last sentence, the MC might actually nuke the opposition if they decide to become enemies...
I think I'm OK with that.

This was interesting, but damn she's a bitch.
First, she accuses the MC, then doesn't want to assume responsibility for almost killing him, putting them both in this predicament and she also has the nerve to then go "leave everything to me"...

But worst of all, the fact that in the other timeline, the MC didn't know who killed the whole guild means she didn't come clean about it... She's the reason, but wouldn't take responsibility for it at all...

PART 2


Now, the first few chapters where published FIRST on Kakao (KR) then on Piccoma (JP) 4 days later.
BUT, the last chapter was published on Kakao May 4th, 2024 but @SumishiroYukina posted the Link for Piccoma on X (twitter) the 1st of May.... so 3 days prior...
Also, Piccoma is completely unavailable outside of Japan (I used my VPN to access it), so it feels like they only have the license for JP publishing, and Kakao has the rest of the world.

In conclusion: I have no fucking clue.
Artist and sometimes Author are Japanese, it's published in Japanese first now, Asura uses the Japanese publication... so Manga?
Original author of the novel and often author of the manwha/manga is korean, international publishing rights are owned by Kakao... so Manwha?

If I had to pick one, I would choose Manwha because:
- Publication rights for everywhere except Japan are owned by Kakao (KR)
- Original author is Korean and he still works on the manwha
- It's fully colored
- Webtoon format (long pages)
- Story organized in Seasons, and not Volumes
- Can buy chapters by chapters

There you go, hope that satisfies you curiosity...

PART 1

Dude, you've just thrown me into a deep rabbit hole to search for this answer... So:

- This is published on Kakao (Korean Webtoons), but also Piccoma (Japanese Webtoons)
- The original story was penned by Kim Hyeong-jun (Korean)
- Dialogue and rewrite are by YU
- Art is by Cobalt

Original story and publisher are for sure Korean.
It's published in Korean first, but also in Japanese on Piccoma, but like 3 day later.

Sooo... Korean ---> Manhwa...
BUT!!!

YU is actually Utsumi Yuusuke (打見佑祐), a Japanese author...
And Cobalt is Sumishiro Yukina, also Japanese, but woman.

On Kakao, Author is 김형준 (Kim Hyeong-jun written in Korean) and artist is Cobalt.
But on Piccoma, Author is Kim Hyeongjun (written in English) and artist is 澄白悠貴奈 (Sumishiro Yukina in Japanese)

Anyway, I'm pretty certain Asura uses the Japanese publication. Maybe for translators availability.

Here's chapter 1 logo original, in Korean, from Kakao:

Continuing in part 2

Yeah whatever...
I don't understand why Manwhas make a point of establishing a plan when everything always goes to shit on the first second the plan is put into action.

Just show us the thing, and stop wasting our time with pointless chapters like these last few.

That demon kinda looks like a certain SSS Berserker...
https://i.postimg.cc/FKGrznn6/i.png

Damn.
I tried, I really tried...
But this is pure shit now.
I don't care about any characters anymore, all the per-established rules are useless now and I don't see how this could get interesting anymore.

I know nobody gives a crap, but I needed to vent a bit before dropping this...

No no no.
He's trying to be inconspicuous and discreet.
5.5 million times 3, he'll offer at least 16.5 million!

Because he is dumb as hell, apparently.

Well, It's not a lie.
I thought blondie was trying to manipulate the brother, but he actually told the truth... MC not being afraid of his brother's power without any skills is proof of that.

Oh, I'm not arguing that the end result and goal aren't good.
He still lied, manipulated and blindsided good people to achieve it.

Doing nothing would have been worst, and the MC knows it, but his actions still aren't "good", the results are.

Talking about necessary evil...
Isn't what the MC is doing not just that too?

I mean, he manipulated a good man, with a good moral compass and ideals, to rebel against his family by lying, manipulating events stealthily and using future knowledge to force the Patriarch to make blunder after blunder.

The end goal isn't the same, as the Warrior doesn't have anything to gain personally from this, he really does it all for the good of humanity, but he still did bad things to get a good outcome.

Why tho?!?
Just shut up and don't interfere.
He clearly provoked the King to duel him, and show him that he is the strongest regardless of his level.

What would be the point of her fighting...

This story is getting dumber and dumber.
MC's is destroying entire city districts while trying to be "low key"...
He also buys an item in a black auction house for 3 times its last bid, because reasons...
The Oni is supposed to be 100% loyal to him, but keeps doing dumb shit, even when he specifically asks her not to, and that he would "do something about it".
The demi-god fox monster just got pushed aside by a goblin, like she's nothing.
Penalties seem pretty useless, as a floor 451 BLIND climber who was mid in every way seems to be doing fine on floor 50 against the overwhelming strongest dude possible there...

Everybody is dumb, established rules are constantly ignored, the OP MC is actually not OP at all, new rules are created in the same chapter they are relevant, the story is going nowhere and there's already filler chapters like this one in the first season of the story.

Is this based on a prior work, like a novel, or is the author just randomly taking the story the way the wind blows?!?

Wait, soooooo, we can actually have amazing fight in murim stories that don't look light purple, red or blue flashes everywhere ?!?

This is amazing 😍
