gone or just not on webtoon anymore?

fr based tho

if the guy is starting conversations just to get a racist reaction out of people, and you know it isn't out of genuine interest for the subject
best be racist man

yeah I was suprised when I heard it,w as it solely about this chapter or something else?

We should understand the situation better.

That man had his ribs broken, they are currently putting immense pressure on his spine with her sitting position.

This guy's lungs are being CRUSHED, and PUNCTURED, and out of fear of this girl, and his life, he is mustering the air volume to beg.

Quite impressive, actually.

Me when a story does a rivalry right and the audience just ignores it T_T

Although it would have been really cute if he did dragon choyang under the bus w/him

Have no clue.

Without context the guy who sent your friend to death is bathing in glory, and infront of your face taunts you, effectively taunting your friend. The guy is the strongest in the valley, extremely noble, and took great pride in that friendly relationship, to the point of emotional outburst.

You without question side for the morally questionable leader?
Or do you think "because we know mc would never do that, so he isn't morally questionable" because good news buddy the characters in a story are not omnipotent

Yeah fr.

As guessed, he is a character meant to represent early past life mc, although I was scared to reference specifically the heavenly demon it's the same kind of hate he shows to the people who turned, and the people who wasted their lives, during that fight.

It was character development for both of them, and I extremely like that instead of the stupid barbarian attitude commenters implied they wanted, he took the time to effectively communicate his qualms with the battle, and show respect for loss.

I wrongly assumed he already knew, and lost hope fr both of them evolved here in my eyes.

I think if they started with it the fight would be avoided, but it adds an extra layer of impact. HOPEFULLY commenters see the nobility in casting away your life threatening wounds to avenge your friend, seemingly.
and HOPEFULLY you all don't think "wow what a waste of panel space, why did mc had to resolve unfriendly relations genuinely half brought on by his own actions"

Fr ultra enjoyed that segment, for the very very very very very first time in a long while a cliche character is actually followed through with and done right

bro shut the fuck up

actually you are braindead beyond belief, please stop talking, you provide no useful input and have the most far-off and stupid interpretations of story ever, you are up there with the people who auto-dislike true purple because he is interested in arguments

Well at least that should put an end to his selfishness.

Although it might have come from the heart, it only felt like the dude was taunting him.
No reason to whisper it if he actually truly believed in it, it kinda felt like what the antihero would say to demotivate a hero kinda shit.

I stand by my word, it is understandable their reactions. Even if not dan's fault his incapability to show even a shred of humility infront of battered comrades bred that kind of hate.
To say the hate is wrongly directed is fine, but in no way is it unwarranted, and AGAIN mc himself has submit himself to that kind of misdirected, biased hate.

So, yeah, just humanity.

Thank god comment section pacified

Man this isn't the worst comment section I've seen, but it's in the league.

Truly, TRULY hoping to the lord and heavens that you all do not continue to be like this.

I absolutely adore the fact that you had 0 relevant or important takeaways from this chapter, besides unwarranted hate for pink hair guy <3
I love dsucking main characters honestly, I love when commenters can't acknowledge their flaws, or ignore character consistency and reasonable reaction, for whatever is favourable to the plotline.

Why do you think that?

please gtfo

His FRIEND
JUST
DIED??????

I am praying to god you all are not seriously like this.

maybe if mc shut the hell up and said smthn like "Monk guy was a good guy" or "my regards to the casualties" or showed a bit of humility himself, then the already impulsive chorang wouldn't freak

Bro what humility
He's honoring his friends death, albeit impulsively and wrongly, that isn't a matter of humility, just misguided anger

mc acknowledges this but makes no attempt to redirect that anger, or resolve the situation, mc is completely in the wrong here communicatively

If you want to add an extra 40 chapters for his development feel free to say so, but you can't both complain about his like of screentime in progression AND how you don't like him.

I think he's a great character, I think his hate is uncalled for and he has a well-defined, consistent moral code and philosophy.

He has NOT been a jerk, infact his attitude towards mc has become quite admirable. I don't think there have been asspulls, if anything inthe final segment of the fight it is always mc who gets the asspulls. Eg against thunder guy, most asspull asspull there was. Or in their courtyard fight, mc gets saved by a student being impaled, and originally mc could not even compare to him. You can make arguments that mc rightfully gained the upperhand in those fights, but in no way was mc ever clearly above him,

and it is only natural that a cliche "genius character" evolves at least at the same rate as our generic mc character, hence at all points he should be above mc to an extent, not as a rival.

Selfish characterization is fine, but also not unwarranted.
