Welp... Goodbye shaman

his neck was so fragile

not if ur the Joker

Affirmation of strength is a tool used to lead the masses on a "righteous" path. The stronger the sect, the more disciples. The more disciples, the more people can be saved and reach nirvana

Meat isn't bad for the body. Thats just propaganda used to insinuate it's bad. The fact that humans have flat teeth AND sharp teeth is the development of evolution. It shows that our bodies need meat in order to thrive. There is a difference from being carnivorous, vegetarian, and omnivorous. Keep in mind that humans aren't meant to sit in an office all day or sit on a couch 24/7. This is a development that goes against nature. There is also a difference when considering meal proportions. Most people actually eat more than necessary. Take a hamburger for example. Though it tastes good, this meal has become an overindulgence of meat. It's become 3/4 of the meal when it shouldn't even be half. Not to mention those who eat 2 for a meal. The other problem is people overcook meat because they don't like the idea of consuming "blood" even though its actually frying away the protein thus ruining the nutritional value. Just like you can overcook vegetables and make them lose their vitamins.

To show an example of propaganda, look up Dihydrogen Monoxide (H₂O - water). I can even leave a website to show its "dangers". "Facts" can always be altered to fit a narrative.

my guess is the peerless MC in the central plains but given the red words prolly demon faction

ahhhhh... He's using the second technique

want to give it a try? If you drop out and be like 90% of disciples, they'll only kill your whole family. Whats the risk
😭😂🤣😂

MC literally said their posture was destroying their knees, not the exercise itself. Because the monk he's supposed to face is muscular he chose to do exercises that bring better muscle mass vs definition.

honestly there were 2 tests to qualify as s rank
• survival (strong monsters)
• control (high regeneration monsters)

TP is like a cheat skill when it comes to survival, and control requires a little bit of skill. weapons can be brought into the evaluation so it's not like they didn't allow him to exert more power. (there's a difference from A-rank using equipment that gives S-rank qualification and an S-rank using equipment)

Realistically Hakjin is in the top 10 for world rankings (lost on 3rd match of 32 = 4-8th place) {left wiggle room for a couple others that have a chance to beat him that were prematurely eliminated}

so is it pathetic yes, but survival was probably ONLY passed because the monsters couldn't hit him by teleporting in and out of fights. the 2nd part was more about accuracy, so monsters weren't strong. also, its not like most monsters know tactics. Hakjin took the blow to catch an adversary whom he wouldn't be able to touch otherwise bc of TP. Monsters would attempt to hit him but not grapple bc they couldn't connect

hopefully this is a plausible answer

he's been back. he manages the system. that only held true for the "virtual world" where it was battle royal. as soon as the backet of 32 started, it was hosted in the real world even going as far to say murder will bring disqualification

easy. that guy is the one who is "good at illusions", who also sets up ranking assessment. now through this conversation we learned he is capable of "sending soldiers" through a "dimension". the fact he was talking to someone known as emperor and predator, it's likely the guy that killed him in the previous life.

the only question we don't know the answer to is how they know of MC's prior life, and how it will effect the future

and she... is Mi

IDK how much you read, but you definitely skipped chapters, or didn't bother to remember story building. I'll kindly remind
tower = stats, skill proficiency (higher difficulty = higher rewards, more points = %completion / difficulty)
dungeon = resources, skill proficiency (money) {wasn't mentioned but skill proficiency increases by using them}

currently just mana alone he outclassed fuckface and sent shivers down his spine at only floor 21.
stats = strength, skill proficiency = technique
no matter how great and proficient a skill is, if you're too weak it'll feel like getting slapped by a feather, and without mana you can't preform the skill

the second you said "how I interpreted what he said" you were already in a fallacy.

What he said was what he meant. It was a move meant to make the villain think there was a way out, so he could despair like his victims. its the villains fault if he thought he had a chance. If NOT helping assassin girl was part of the promise, he wouldn't have dealt damage to begin with. The promise was she can be the one to kill him. there was never a mention of no help or what condition to leave him in. She even BROKE her deal with the MC to wait for him to show up before she attacked. So if MC wants to renege to her, he has full rights.

furthermore, people ¹twisting what he says (like you did), ²blame for not saving EVERY person, and ³unrealistic expectations were WHY HE HATED BEING A HERO BEFORE. (2&3 were given extensive examples, but 1 is easily assumed in his role although not expressly written)

its closer to show off his ability to mimic appearance. yes we've seen his asshole side like everyone else in the guild, but not once have we seen how adept he is at hiding. this builds up the tension on how necessary it is to capture him now that he's been exposed by an immature brat who can't keep her emotions down. assassination at base, starts with the art of killing by surprise

it was pretty good. guy who doesn't want to be a hero becomes one. it HAD the edginess of not giving a fuck what the population thought about him. Now its like a slap in the face of constant "I Am A Hero" with a slight touch of trying to rub it a little too

to think we still have 18 years left to go

There is a huge difference between:
Having the burden of guilt that comes with not saving people and being criticized
VS
Saving anonymously and only receiving thanks from those involved. (except for a name most ppl don't know MC)

Being a poster boy hero puts out a different expectation

gotta say for something with extremely high regen kraken balls do seem like the best answer
