Even the same cap and helmet.

I thought of him as well, but because the tiger hunter was put on the mountain and now has to fight for survival while MC gets to her, it has to be her that gets it. It's what fits with the stories thematics and this story has not been one to buck such trends.

Ah, not to mention suffocation. But these asian comics often show freezing on land to put someone in a block of ice and never suffocation from it. including Evolution begins with a big tree

So this pill is a one time temporary thing? https://i.postimg.cc/ZRVWYG6S/i.png

But if it is a one time temporary thing, what is with the language "occasionally receiving the power of the mountain god" Maybe it isn't temporary?

I wonder who the unqualified person was. Surely not the person MC killed who did not have their power absorbed but was just defeated and killed by MC

Pretty much has to stick with Aunbis, unless there is another demigod/god that has undead bonuses like with Aunbis.

Also two allies that certainly would make more sense to give the pill to. Probably the woman.

MC lied, and anyone who knows anything about the famous Necromancer should know. If Necromancer's undead only distinguished between living and undead, necromancers allies and necromancer em self would be at risk. And anyone who's seen any of the broadcasts of necromancer fighting with undead and allies would see that.

Ironically the phrasing implied weakness "I can't control my own summons"

Some "sea kings" are, was that for sure one of them and MC knew?

Irreverent to my point though

True. Your couple of sentences really had me nodding off part way reading it :p

Thanks, LOL at the use of all caps and bold.

Remind us please

What's with the paper at the very end

Who did Sea King say "charge" to? And why is MC attacking Sea King? MC's illogical aggression and unwillingness to work with others gets tiresome. Tempted to drop this.

Why would that be only a annoyance?

I disagree. Narratively poorly done for sure IMO. But I doubt the author has completely forgotten that this is Caisy memory viewing. Things will change between them after this.

The author works too hard to echo other famous characters and stories, it really gets tiresome.

"If this was written to make us empathize with the detective, I don't think it's working."

Well it was written so that Caisy the detective would sympathize with MC, and I'm sure that will work. I also sympathize with Caisy, not that Caisy was not a sympathetic character to begin with. Caisy is smart, truly cares about people, heroic even. Caisy just had the wrong idea about MC, but that is MC's fault, a misunderstanding MC intentionally caused because reasons. (yeah I don't buy this contrivance, just a excuse to have Moriarty secretly be a good person while pretending to be evil, it's been done before and better done before. Even to the point of MC using the name Moriarty well before planning to play the role of villian)

I'm not saying you are wrong, just not a known thing. Very likely, but not assured.

What to do in that situation... become a student at a university and train to overcome succumbing to the dark power.
Note-Absolutely not talking about myself here.

How did you make the alien emoticon?

I got the impression MC was new to this area.

Clearly the nanny
