    1. weโ€™ve known evil spirits from other worlds have existed since very early on, we havent had many people confirmed as being from other worlds, but we do know they exist, also who do you mean by him and the wizard? do you mean Gavis? Cause if you mean GM, hes from earth also, and as for gavis, we saw him on earth also, so we technically have no clue what his original world was

  3. I thought I was tired with the community chapter, but god damn the author just turned it to get suuuper entertaining again. Exactly why I love this light novel.

  4. So gavis was the real reason why the community was shutting down. He made GM and SoulQueens believe that the power source was running out, but in truth it really was his meddling. +1 to all the gavis theory-holders

    He also came to end the round table and take back his authority. He probably needs more power to do something, so he came back to get it from here. What does he need to do though? We know heโ€™s outside the walls, and surely he knows more secrets than most, so itโ€™s likely we may run into him when we hit the Outside-the-walls arc I believe weโ€™re going to get. He still needs Bjorn/Hansoo, so heโ€™s trying to stay in his favor and not reveal Hansoo's identity.

    Also remember back in 289, before Gavis created the jewel, he could instantly tell Bjorn's essense levels and more. Now he can update his knowledge and see Bjorn's progression, if he didnโ€™t already know.

    Also funny how Lion will be immortalized in the hearts and minds of the round table members as someone of higher status than they even suspected, lol – โ€œcreatorโ€ of the round table, mwmber of the community from 20 years ago, possibly from another world, and respected even by auril gavisโ€ฆ if only they really knew

    1. i hope Bjorn eventually kills clown, and as he does so, whispers that hes the Lion to him, just to watch him break. To see him truly shatter, as his worldview is destroyed. Also i had forgotten about 289 and Gavis being about to see levels and such, and tbh, it makes me wonder if its somehow connected to the PC that displays Bjornโ€™s stats. cause he Should have access to that as well, we saw the scene of him directly looking at the monitor on earth. So in theory, he shouldnt need the authority to see those things. so why does he need it? or was that a lie and a misdirect from just always having been able to know that info and making Bjorn think he couldnt know after

      1. Maybe he could see the monitors for all the players, but not be able to pinpoint which one is which? I remember back then, Gavis was asking Bjorn to confirm whether he was a barbarian, and Bjorn skirted by the question with a facade. I had wondered at the time if Bjorn was obscured, and then through his actions in Raphdonia, Noark, and in the community, he because a person of interest to Gavis (as opposed to being a person of interest from the start). If so, Gavis would have had to confirm who Bjorn/Hansoo is, and that he was the only person to clear the real game. Heโ€™d been able to spy on Hansoo/Bjorn/Lion through various means to confirm who he is.With all confirmed now, Gavis has no need of the community, and shut it down to regain power and go back to his focus. Thatโ€™s my thoughts on motive, but please feel free to poke holes in this theory

  5. Can someone confirm whether it is confirmed Auril can safely go back to Earth? If I remember correctly, it was Wolf who mentioned it, who could have been fed fake info by Auril knowing this moment was coming. Bjorn has inferred this chapter yet again how deceitful Auril can be so I would be very disappointed if next chapter he doesnโ€™t make sure he indeed can do what he promises (not only going to Earth himself but sending someone as well).

    1. it has not been confirmed no, its been implied multiple times, and we DO have a scene of what seems to be an Auril gavis on earth with Bjornโ€™s PC in the very early chapters, but we dont know if its limited to just Gavis, if that gavis was another version of Auril Gavis on earth in contact with this Gavis which i think may be the case, or something else. But no, we dont have actual confirmation, just implications. I think its probably true tbh, that Gavis could send someone back, since he brought them here, and just truly doesnt care enough to send most people back, but i mean, it could be possible that, on some whim, a moment of randomness, he could just decide he wants to fuck with the people who dont win, and send the winner off elsewhere, though whether the place Gavis sends them is truly their original home, who knows.

  8. Brutally murdering a random player. Oh, theyโ€™re home now, back in their old body, six feet under ground. Not my fault it got buried.

    1. But their bodies just disappeared, leaving their clothing behind. Would be super awkward if they respawned naked in their old apartments, while someone else lived there.

  10. Man he is such a bastard. He removes ghostbusters and now asks them to play a game that is certainly a double edged sword, the smartest thing you could do now is to leave. Donโ€™t get played by him

    1. The carrot he put on that stick is quite tempting though, for anyone who hasnโ€™t yet given up on getting back home

  11. So the jewel was a battery of sorts. Crazy to think heโ€™s been sitting backstage for all these meetings possibly for knows how long.

    I feel like the question he wants answering is the same question he proposed to Bjorn before he was sucked back to the present. Canโ€™t remember what it was though. Will have to go back.

    1. No, the jewel was a part of his authority, but he retained the remaining part of his authority that he didnt give to GM. The weakening of the community's power source was independent of the truth jewel.

  12. Hmmmm. This makes me wonder- they were established to have vanished from Earth. Where are their original bodies? Do they even still exist?

    1. blue and I discussed this concept in past chapters, and we had the idea that they were potentially being stored deep in the Labyrinth somewhere as one idea, in a pocket dimension of Gavisโ€™ control somewhere, or possibly also beyond the walls in some secret location that gavis has.

    2. Oh. New idea just formed. I already had the idea that i shared a few chapters back about there being more than one Auril Gavis, cause multiverse, and them somehow being in contact for some unknown goal, and using that to take people from other worlds, and since we do know there is a multiverse, since earth and Raphdonia are different dimensions. But, what if the cost of the transfer was the body of the person transferred. So thats why their body vanishes from earth. And thus, to return to your โ€œoriginalโ€ world, you wouldnt have a body there, so either Gavis would need a means to recreate it there. Or he sends you to a similar but technically different dimension where a parallel earth is, and replaces the you that was there, with the soul of the You that was in Raphdonia, in a similar manner to evil spirits. So youre โ€œreturnedโ€ in a sense, but youre also not truly back.

      1. i feel like thats some next level thinking also what if gavis in the final fight kicks lee han out of bjorns body and sends him back to earth and thats the end how crazy would that be also you were right about the control gavis has over the ghost busters good guess

        1. tbh, if this happened to Bjorn, I think he would straight up, IMMEDAITELY download Dungeon and Stone again and try to get back. like, feel like He would just assume its a trick, and want to find a way back by any means. Probably would kill some people on earth if Gavis did that to him. Cause Bjorn crazy. and earth is not the place for him anymore

          1. Yep hopefully as the story progresses bjorn finds a way to work against gavis and the scholars magic because i dont think his current magic resist is doing much

          2. Yeah he had a pretty crappy life on earth tbh, working for a black company, and his traumatic upbringing with his fam, and whatever happened with his ex. Raphdonia, even with its death toll and hardships is like a place of endearment for HansooYour theory is one hell of an idea though. Itโ€™s giving me Brand New Day type of vibes, where everything is the same but different. Imagine this Hansoo works at a nice company, his fam is actually nice, hes still with Hyun-Byeol, and life is goodโ€ฆ man that would be crazy.
            0
        2. also just saw you called him Lee Han. Bjorn takes offense to that, He isnt a Hans. Heโ€™s Hansoo. He made that very clear to Amelia ๐Ÿคฃ

    3. Really good question. Maybe itโ€™s like Tron, and the bodies were transformed as they crossed dimensions? Or maybe they were spiritualified and become part of the evil spirit soul? Or maybe they end up in the basement somewhere?

      1. i like the idea of their body being stored in their soul somehow ngl. its less morbid than the one i had about their body being the fuel for the transfer

      1. yea most people guess that the black mask was his ex girlfriend but she guess that gavis had alot of control over the entire ghost busters i guess that he didnt have that much but the dude was a next level stalkers hearing peoples conversations and leaving the gem behind to take the authority away from the current gm lmao like i was way off

        1. i mean, gavis did have more power than even i thought, i figured he had alot, but i didnt think he could eavesdrop the whole time and tbh, he could probably do a lot more than weโ€™ve been shown given that, he probably has records and logs of every message sent, word exchanged in chatrooms, and more. and can browse it as he likes

  14. We know that he got the authority to cross over into other worlds. There has to be a price tho. Itโ€™s definitely not a win win when he is involved.

    Amazing chapter tho, can't wait for the next chapters

    Oh and and black mask is 99% Bjorn his Ex GF, the way she left instantly

    1. Oh and I think itโ€™s funny that Clown is so insecure about being a bit chubby with his Earth appearance that he left so quick even though he lived for 10 years as the clown already. Kinda shows how bad his mental state is

      1. i mean, its possible that his size wasnt why he left quickly, maybe he was disfigured or scarred somehow that we didnt get to see, and he has some past earth trauma about it or something, there are other potential possibilities, but overall, its silly for him to be self conscious of that kind of thing ngl, but does make me question if Clown used to be like a edgy high schooler or something which is why he picked clown and being a necromancer and all that

          1. My philosophy is that we're all due a little empathy. Weโ€™re all capable of good and bad things. Not dismissing anything clown did as corpse collector, but as a human, I feel like he was broken long ago. Like if he met a nice girl she could have fixed him. Lol ok seriously though, maybe he might have been different if he had a real friend instead

          2. thatโ€™s not empathy thatโ€™s virtue signaling . if you were actually emphatic you would feel bad for all the innocent people this animal hurt in his worthless life . i donโ€™t give a shit about why he become like this . at the end of the day he is choosing to be a piece of shit . i wonder if you would think the same if something happened to your love ones . would you be like โ€œ poor dude he had a tough childhood i guess i will forgive him for beheading my loved one โ€œ or fuck that filth he needs the chair .

          3. For the record no one said anything about forgiveness for actions, or made light of his stature. Also on the record, I doubt iโ€™d be able to maintain an impartial or objective position if my loved ones were involved. I may have unintentionally triggered something in you that you see here, and if so, iโ€™m sorry.My point here was to point out the very clear challenges this guy faced throughout his fictional life – some people choose to rise above and do better, while others succumb to their own darkness. Heโ€™s the latter – but that doesnโ€™t take away from acknowledging his cyberbullying, or recognizing his patterns of overcompensation. Empathy is about recognizing the human being in all of us, even though human beings can be capable of really atrocious things.

          4. yeah i think we might be polar opposite for this view . i just canโ€™t find myself feel sorry for criminals regardless of their past if they choose to act like animals i will think of them as one , simple as that but everyone is entitled to their own opinion tho you do you . have a good one
