PHEW. YES. PLEASE JUST READ. AND FALL IN LOVE WITH THE CHARACTERS NOT WITH THE LOGIC OF THE STORY. Some stories aren't meant to make complete sense. Some stories win't follow absolute LOGIC. They're just here to exist. SO JUST LOVE IT.

I know, I unconsciously do this. It's been good so far
ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~

i'm up to date with the story (131), but idk why i've never actually considered that his ability is just creating a new timeline with each death. thank u

1. The beauty of the story is that the MC is able to achieve the outcome he wants by learning, dying, and resetting. Like ReZero the goal isn't to simply move forward by training, dodging, etc, it's about moving forward while feeling good about the path you walk.
2. Skills here are unique in that they're given at a specific point in time rather than at birth, meaning that for a time the Flame Emperor did not have the revival skill and was simply mortal. That was time that the MC chose to kill him at.
3. While the MC could potentially farm skills, he chooses not to do that out of personal preference (you could say that's a weak argument but that's just how it is)

That actually kinda makes sense now I probably skipped some explanations due to laziness, which is why I didn't fully grasp the concept. But still, the power to change the past (and casually eliminating the Flame Emperor) however he wants is ridiculously powerful. And with unlimited revivals, the danger feels fake. It's like playing a video game with infinite lives—it loses all tension. He's basically a GOD now. It's boring that he keeps coming back to life and suffering unnecessarily instead of being consistent about learning and training first. Him, feeling good about suffering and unnecessarily coming back to life because he keeps making stupid mistakes? Crazy, I actually dropped the story the moment I wrote my previous comment. I can't bring myself to read it anymore. But yeah, thanks for explaining.

Also, that's why I'm considering the idea that the MC creates new timelines each deatth. I saw on TikTok that the MC's girl friend also has the ability to come back to life. Because of that, it seemed more logical to me that the story is about creating new timelines upon revival. It's logically impossible for both the MC and his girlfriend to simply return to the same timeline. It's too confusing. It's much more plausible that a new timeline is created each time, you get me? Coz what

To be fair, this is just my own understanding, so I'm not completely sure do don't thank me

nah the thing is:
1) someone already explained about him basically stealing the flame emperor's skill and
2) since you apparently dropped it (?) I can understand how you didn't get that those "infinite revives" are far more dangerous and interesting than "just one try".

here's why: he doesn't forget. he remembers everything. you can see how emotionally detached he gets, especially in the arc with the demon lord. he sees his friends/colleagues die over and over again. he's far from a god, he's destined to fail time and time again. if he were actually overpowered, he wouldn't need to try to achieve the best results hundreds of times.
also the fact that he's basically invincible is a curse in itself. he knows he can technically be reckless, but that's his body. his mind is a completely different thing. he knows he's the one who can change things and save people. but he carries that burden all on his own.

this story is less about someone being op, and more about living with all the trauma and suffering he has to burden. he literally has to live through trauma to receive a new skill

so although I can understand that this type of story is not for everyone, I think you judged this story unfairly. at least from what you wrote in your comments I think that you didn't even give it a proper chance bc it's not your type of story so you just skipped a lot of important things and didn't really understand how this whole setting works..

like I said, not a story for everyone, but as someone who really likes this story and has read is twice already - it's actually a very well thought trough story with great character development

Idk wym but he's definitely very close to being a god. I don't understand why you're overreacting when you know you can go back in time to change things. He wouldn't need to waste time being emotional. And the fact that he's tried it a hundred times, like you said, is ridiculous. He's making it unnecessarily hard for himself. He could have finished much faster if he'd used his abilities intelligently. Why waste time suffering through dumb mistakes and deliberately reviving? He needs to work smarter, not harder. He's choosing the harder path. And you know you wouldn't be depressed and burdened if he were more intelligent about it. I definitely don't enjoy stories where the main character doesn't think logically

yeah you definitely didn't read the story good thing you dropped it.
anyways, I assume you're looking for a cheap story like solo leveling, which you won't find here, so I'll leave it at that

assuming we think about the timelines continuing, in the first timeline where the flame emperor kills mc, the flame emperor does not and will not ever get mc's skill bc that is the power of the skill the tower gave the mc, which is to copy a skill of ur killer once. also, the mc dies, revives, and repeats a lot in the beginning bc he wants to achieve the best "ending" according to his beliefs. it's that thing where characters rather die for their beliefs than live while not working for their beliefs.

also, it's crazy u dropped this when u didn't even reach the chronicles of the heavenly demon arc. as an enjoyer of this story, ik how the beginning made me on the verge of dropping too but it got SO much better from the arc i mentioned onward and it's a common opinion. minor spoilers too bc u seemed to care a lot abt the mc dying a lot but he doesn't do it that much later on bc of a promise to someone, he rly tries to live and struggle instead of hitting reset so quickly.

Haha cute, Are you perhaps struggling with reading comprehension? If you consider Solo Leveling cheap, what would you label this manhwa then? The mc is so ahh

But since you're absolutely certain that this manhwa possesses some hidden 'beauty,' then I suppose, i will reread and provide feedback, from chapter one, all the way to... one hundred plus like u want

I literally don't care what you do? I don't force you to do anything? why would I even care? why are you so triggered by the fact that people have different opinions than you?

and yeah, SL is bad. I once was a big fan of it, read it from chapter 1 when it came out and even read the novel when only a few chapters of the Webtoon were out. I thought it was great, I liked it.
then I read many more Stories with a similar premise and I realized how bad SL actually is.
the MC is so bland, has no emotions and doesn't care about anything. everything comes easy without even him having to really work for it. there was never any risk. SL is something you should call the MC being "god like". he gets given everything without any actual risks or consequences.. but sure, there's action and he's so smart and whatnot, it's a great story

To be clear, I'm not triggered about the fact that we have different opinions, I actually enjoyed our conversation but I know my communication can sometimes come across as insensitive, and I sincerely apologize if I unintentionally offended you. That was definitely lowkey not my intention (i expected you to argue back but I suppose you are not the type to do that)

As for SL I actually stopped readind it midway through, before the romance became a major focus. I found the protagonist's power growth to be too rapid and, honestly, a little unrealistic. So, I completely understand why you might not have liked that aspect. It's perfectly valid to find such quick power-ups off-putting. I prefer character development that feels more natural and believable, as it helps me stay invested in the story so yeah idk why u brought that up

Sorry but I have to say this, characters here is EITHER fcking stup1d or straight up being an asshole or both. no other choices.

Yeah that's the point lol, they are teenagers that were let go by society by one way or another and while they are angry and selfish, they also discover their dreams and goal and learn to better themselves to reach them even if it's the harder path .

Damn I didn't know

Honestly it's depressing but a good representation. The first 100 chapters are especially rough but that's what makes the whole thing good , you should read the whole thing

Yes

Yep afaik it was but author is redrawing scumbag system on webtoon in their own artstyle following the donghua and the novels btw so u can check it out there

Thank you so much fellow reader may you have a very good day/nightヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~

Where can I see ⇀‸↼‶
