but objectively speaking, this guy can kill us both 100 out of 100 times... unless you happen to have a gun on you?

This emperor really can't see anyone else as anything more than tools. He doesn't even treat them as human...

Long White Hair...?

... Where?

Well, I care about the pronunciation. If I didn't, maybe I'd achieve some inner peace. lol... :(

Translator, don't just use the Romanized/Transliterated terms for them. Just go with their proper names.
"The Huang Faction" and "The Huang Faction"
vs
"The Space Faction" and "The Barren Faction"

Which one sounds better to an English reader? The latter. 100%... especially because I don't think I'm pronouncing "Huang" correctly.

Seriously, I'm playing Wo Long with the bad English dub (it's bad, but it is funny) -> and I'm learning that the only name I ever pronounced correctly was "Lu Bu." All other names I ever pronounced were wrong. You'd imagine "Sun" is a no brainer, but nope, it's like "Suwen" or something. Cao Cao? That's "Shao Shao." Etc.
In conclusion: Romanized/Transliterated Chinese words are a failure as no one can pronounce any of them correctly by looking at them. Not to exclude English from the blame; English sucks too.

ARE YOU SURE NO ONE HAS DIED TONIGHT?

I guess they got hurt,
lost their limbs
are injured,
bleeding (probably profusely),

buuuuuuuut not dead. Maybe. I dunno.

The whole Batman meme of "I won't kill you, but your hospital bills will."

So uh... hmm...
1) What's Denji doing in there anyway?
and 2) Does time pass in the outside world too? Or is it one of those "can you endure 1000 years of nothing?" scenarios that... now that I think about it, sure have gotten popular lately.

It's happening here. It's happened in Library of Ruina as I mentioned before. It's kinda happening/happened in "Return of the Frozen Player."
Well... it is a SUPER effective method to destroy someone mentally.

Though, I imagine it would be easy if you bang for 1,000 years.
Imagine time doesn't pass in the outside world, so one second Asa is trying to kill Chainsaw man -> and the next second, she is effectively his wife. lol

Kasim belonged to a group of people who lived around the Saharan Empire. The Emperor decided to pull the racist card and genocide all minorities around his empire, including Kasim's people. Kasim survived and he ended up here - where most people don't actually know that he's here -> teaching little Lord all sorts of stuff.

Also, yes. He wants revenge against the Emperor.

You could be right. I just went for a mostly spoiler-free example just in case someone read it by accident... it's been a while since then.

This is FAR from the only war crimes Lauel commits.

At one point, he is torturing a guy in prison and he refuses to crack... so he gives him a little baby chick. Aww, how cute!
Yeah... so the chick can grow up into a chicken and then he'll eat the chicken in front of him.

Archmage Slick? More like Archmage SUCK!

(Same. Something about maintenance.)

NEXT CHAPTER PLEASE!!!

Ah yes, just stand there, do nothing Mr. Main Character.
Instead of charging up a city-wide nuke of Chaos energy to erase leviathan from existence -> forcing him to regenerate from NOTHING - at least challenging the possibility of that

Nah, just stand there. Do nothing. Ya buffoon...
He's constantly doing this to the point where I feel that he's more of a spectator to the plot than a Mr. Main Character.

I will say, the "Pride" Squadron is absolutely vain. They are dealing with one of THE legendary heroes and all they said was "What a headache." They will not survive this especially because Mr. Main Character is coming back with an extra year of training.

At least he admitted it.

It is dumb that situations like this keep happening randomly in plots -> even to the point where they kick off entire arcs, wasting such time because Mr. or Ms. Main Character decided to just stand there and let an enemy do whatever they want.

Still, this was lucky in two ways
1) Mr. Main Character has always been rushed. He hasn't had time to just sit around and train and reflect and stuff. Being locked in a room with nothing to do is great for training... except this is a horrible and miserable idea if it wasn't for:
2) He has Ms. Frost Queen to help him keep his sanity. Her teaching him is a bonus, like icing on a cake. We humans are social creatures and just having someone to chat with is a lifeline that can't be understated.

No matter what, if he was completely alone, he'd lose his mind. Solitary confinement is absolutely horrible and it should be outlawed. Straight up, for a while, it was illegal to do. Then privately owned jails (aka: for profit prisons. Yes, these are real) got involved and bought them back. BLARGH!

Also, it was a nice touch to show that flashback of him defending her. It means that his efforts to build a sense of companionship with her actually mattered.
Like, if he treated her poorly or dismissed her, she probably wouldn't even think to teach him.

This is unfair. We literally had a new chapter yesterday too.

Did... did he club a baby seal?

Establishing a couple of "baddies that are bad" - who can also restate the situation to make themselves as victims -> so we can kill them later.

Done. Let's get to that "later" already.

Well, Mr. Main Character has shifted gears from "oh no, a kid!" to "WE'RE HAVING TWOOOOOOOOOO!" lol
