stupid people always think they are safe.

First rule of combat. Know thine enemy. This kid just made the worst mistake.

I am surprised it took this long for this scene to unfold.

see this guy, if he was smart, would know that this very act means he can never be one.

NIng'er did nothing wrong. If anything she helped MC grow and realize his weakness. A true side character worthy of praise.

everyone underestimates a buffoon. Their mistake.

boy that old dude can't be underestimated.

hes not even trying and he steals hearts in an instant.

i as actually hoping he lost some weight but nope?

damn son... that was some good writing.

It sucks but the kind of world is in is far too much for a girl like her. She would follow him anyways and that's the tragedy. I have a feeling she will still follow him despite all this anyways.

again, how does this ethereal stage compare to his original form. it's hard to grasp how powerful these people are. I still don't get how much power he lost.

sly woman. No one can blame her for doing this but still for her to leverage this. That is low.

after what happened, how could he not?

This is how you do revenge.

dig that grave boy....you're almost there.

broh....

and that kid didn't even cultivate his power.

a true parent lol.

it is kind of difficult to gauge how strong he was compared to now.

what I don't like is that he knows way too much about this world, presumably he does his research offscreen, but they never actually explain why he knows all the things he knows. it's kind of irritating.
