I was wondering how they would handle this part in the manhwa and it's much less dark compared to the novel.
In the novel, as the fake 1st commander uses a hostage to protect himself from Karas, Karas cuts off the head of the hostage in front of him without hesitation. Then he killed three more of the innocent people around the fake, coldly stating, "You caused their deaths". It was only then that Abel was able to speak up and ask Karas to spare their lives because Karas likely would've killed as much innocent people as he could to scare the fake into submission.
So no, Abel is not a Mary Sue for asking Karas to spare people's lives. He was taking one for the team

I thought I was just remembering it wrong on my end. I just noticed that when a manhwa adaptation of a novel is produced, they’ve been censoring the extremely graphic scenes. I noticed the same thing in “Searching for the Flower of Alosha.” My heart hurts knowing people won’t get to see just how unhinged Karas actually is when he gets violent or how psychotic Zigryl from the “Flower of Alosha” gets.
Love how we're all expecting tragedy to strike bc this shit is too sweet
For real, the panic was crazy and then nothing happened lmfao
That and also the description. Every time this gets an update it feels like playing russian roulette, am I gonna get shot or keep on living, I know it's going to go off at some point, but I don't know when and I may never be ready for it to go off ಥ_ಥ
