The guides manipulated Luhak's reply to Sehyun's question 'cause he was progressing through the game too fast and was making the beta version bug out.
So basically Sehyun is the closest to achieving the dream 'cause he's the only person so far to fully feel the weight of the lives in his kingdom, and that is somehow in line with Luhak's dream for him.
We don't know exactly what that dream is, but it's the reason why Luhak hasn't interfered with Sehyun's decision making. So far the choices he has made don't deviate from the goal.
As for Sehyun's past deaths, it could very much have something to do with the dreams. With the previous kings it was always the grand Duke that assassinated them. Those kings were too tied up in their own self-gain to be able to make the kingdom prosper so Luhak axed them.
omg thank you so much for the explanation. It was really helpful and now it's all starting to make sense.
Yeah I was confused, too, till the most recent chapter lol
Tho I think it was purposely setup that way so that the impact of the reveal was more real.
Yknow what,,, I decided to pick this story up again because I thought it would be less confusing,,but now I’m a little bit more confused. I understand that the higher up the tower they go, the stronger the barrier gets (but also the more agitated the fingernail gets).. but I still don’t understand how the mc is their only hope of progressing up the tower? Is it because of the Grand Duke’s dream??? Is it because the mc was a really good king? And the two past deaths… what caused it? Was it related to the Grand Duke’s dream???
Anyway, justice to that blue knight. I like him a lot
