yuri zahard is supposed to be a high ranking princess and she is probably only slightly stronger than karaka without ignition weapons. any other princess that was also formidable would also be reliant on the ignition weapons to put them so high on the rankings. and then comes along urek mazino who is equivalent to ss4 goku showing up in front of babidi. and yets whats more wtf? worthy is baam managed to scratch that guy. wheres the consistency here a graph with rankers on x and power level on y must show a ridiculously exponential curve | ||

And as for the scar, it is Baam; they need to foreshadow his impending godliness because main character and all. | ||

Looks about right. I thought it was clear from pretty early on that the power scaling in this manhwa will eventually become completely bonkers. If anything I'm surprised it hasn't been faster. | ||

If anything I'm surprised it hasn't been faster. this was after the zygena mission when Baam meets Urek for the 1st time. something to have in mind is that when both fought there Urek must have held his power in order to no kill the zygena(whale), in other words, Urek had a biggest handicap there. | ||

They have ranking-status, but i'm not even sure they use the rankings from 1 to 150 or whatever. So why are we even discussing this? | ||

I wonder how strong Hell Joe is if Urek recognizes his power. Could Yuri be in trouble? | ||

Could Yuri be in trouble? W-w-w-wait a second is it the Black Hole release that can kill immortals? And doesn't Karaka have the same ability? | ||

If that were the case, I'd think Karaka wouldn't need to negotiate with Hell Joe and his denizens and thus threaten death to get the last thorn. Of course, we haven't seen Karaka do anything on this floor so it is a stretch, but neither can you assume he has the power either. But it was mentioned that in order to defeat the 'curse of immortality,' that you needed a higher order spell or, simply, a person unbound to all contracts of the tower, in other words, an irregular. It only makes sense that Bam's shinsoo is able to overide the immortality simply due to his status of being an irregular. That being said, it also makes sense that perhaps the thorn, the numerous souls in his body, properties of Black Hole style, etc. could also have a hand in this. What my question is that, does this also apply to Rachel? Because she did sign a contract with Headon to climb the tower so that automatically makes her an regular? It is stated in the lore that irregulars are special because they are have no contracts with denizens of the tower. Doesn't this mean she is bound to regular laws hence unable to kill anyone on this floor(this of course all assuming the irregular status is what overrides the 'curse of immortality') | ||

we also dont know for a fact whether she needs contracts with guardians to use shinsoo, but the nature of her arrival in the tower makes her an irregular. | ||

I guess it makes sense that Baam can kill them because of being Irregular. I guess Urek can just go and 1-shot the fk out of Helljoe then LOL. I wonder what will happen to the thorn fragment if Helljoe gets killed by Urek before either Rachel or Baam even make it there | ||

If Hell Joe is killed by someone else, and if the translation is close to the original text, then between the two of them, no one gets the Thorn. I doubt anyone gets it if that were the case.

hell meet baam along the way and realise baam is on a mission to kill hell joe. urek would probably find entertainment out of watching the irregular hes interested in fight the monster he created, so hell let baam fight hell joe and maybe sideline coach him on hell joes weaknesses | ||
