  1. What's about this time discrepancy ? They waited 10 days outside and it seems to be only less than one hour for Baekhoโ€ฆ and more than 4000y for that guyโ€ฆ ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง

  3. I like that we're paying the โ€œtime is in the past" angle for inside raphdonia / the barrier.

    Royals have put raphdonia out of time? Can't think of any way those bones would be 4k+ years old and raphdonia be 300~ years old without significant time magic shenanigans or a massive loss of recorded history

  4. I feel like this isnโ€™t the first time we've seen this item, or at least seen it mentioned. Can anyone remember if its function was mentioned? Iโ€™ll probably have to ctrl+f through like 400 chapters tonight ๐Ÿ™

    2. No this is the first time. The other one you might be thinking of is Garpha's necklace (also a gatcha item) which is #7777. This is #777.I wonder if #77 and #7 are also gatchas :p

  7. The fishiness/mystery continuesโ€ฆ

    I think Bjorn is being a bit judgy here, sure Baek Ho has companions, but he doesnโ€™t hold them dearly like Bjorn does. Pretty sure he knew that already, but maybe it was just a shock. It would be really interesting if it turned out that Baek Ho was really a different version of Hansoo from another worldโ€ฆ interesting, but far fetched.

    I still think Gavis has his hands in this, but last chap BoeJiden had an interesting theory that Bright might be faking. We had a similar thing happen in the doppleganger forest, where the Doppleganger was in the mage who was pretending to be dead. If they had the body, they could try to also pour potion on it, but that doesnโ€™t seem to be an optionโ€ฆ curious. Still, I'd think the Ruin Scholar had other ways to verify.

    Too bad about Makairo, was hoping for another intelligent monster encounter/lore dump. At least we got a new item to fight about, lol. Roll the dice, and โ€œmay the odds be ever in your favorโ€

    1. And she perhaps doesnโ€™t even know she is doing it! She is luring herself inโ€ฆ

    2. It might be Bjorn from the future as well ๐Ÿค” or Bjorn from a parallel universe? They could be in the remnants of a parallel world as well. That could be why Bjorn's dream sent him there.

      1. This is why parallel worlds are stupid. There are literally infinite possibilities now because that was introduced.

        1. There are theoretically some defining constants in closely related parrallels. Ex I'd suspect our Doll Fucker Arc is canon accross all possibilities in the first standard deviation of the โ€œmainโ€ line /j

      2. My current working / long-standing crackpot theory is time magic BS. We're now in the real present time, raphdonia is in the past / exempt from time due to the barrier, labyrinth stuff is all set in the past.

        1. I'm getting similar story vibes to โ€œPick me up, Infinite Gatchaโ€. Like these people were pulled out of their history to fuel the labyrinth. Then again, that scenario mission he went through in the basement level where he blacks out but the other characters still progress through the missions while he's not Bjorn feels exactly like auril gavis watching him the entire time after he returned to the present day from the past.
