I think I adore grandpa high elf, it's really funny seeing how he turned out compared to his parents though lol

Thanks for the tl!

I absolutely love his blank expression he has in the flashback to his parents! XD

Honestly, all the expressions here are pretty great! Especially the ones where he realizes that they knew he had memories from his past life: going from shock, to dread, to relieved. The manga artist does the series credit

Yeah, Walmart, Amazon, et all transforming and rampaging all over mid sized and mom n pop stores was really something.
Amazon's Special Attack, "BLUE ORIGIN ROCKET FIST!!" was a deadly weapon.

More like the fact that they were allowed to remain open, but smaller businesses were not “for some reason”, causing many to go bankrupt. All because of fearmongering which they conveniently sponsored through (social) media, just as I explained in my original post but which you conveniently decided to ignore. Likely because then you’d have to accept that you got played, and that you are not as smart nor compassionate as you thought you were.

But hey, you do you

This was a wholesome and fluffy chapter. Thanks for updating!

i think you didn't pay attention to the line SunSun was quoting

I did? I mean, I mentioned how they destroyed smaller businesses because they were allowed to remain open. They did so through their connections with politicians whose elections they sponsored. Also known as “corporate donors". Meanwhile, smaller businesses had no such connections, and were forced to shut down.

Honestly, it was pretty smart of their part. Fearmonger people through media outlets they bought out, and push for extended lockdowns, causing the greatest wealth transfer in human history. All from the middle to the upper class.

Same reason why such huge companies sponser “climate awareness” groups, they can afford all those “climate regulations” that eventually follow, but their would be future competitors cannot.

I mean, why do you think Bill Gates suddenly no longer believes in “climate change” or better said the artificial hysteria around it which he sponsored just recently? Surely it has nothing to do with him heavily investing into AI, which requires a lot of energy, so it is now beneficial to him to instead lower the cost of energy by getting rid of those “climate regulations” that increase said cost. Getting cheaper energy now takes priority over getting rid of future competitors.

Dirty? Yes. Effective? Definitely.

Nothing more interesting about "Viola" than any new character.
Please do not taint everything with your sexual desires,
spare this one novel.

As opinions go, Salyx strikes me as a far more interesting
character—more so than the protagonist himself. Of course,
that depends entirely on the author’s deeper interpretation
of his character.

I would have appreciated seeing him as the protagonist,
provided the author were equipped to handle his complexity.

His name is Heero, and he can fly, eh? I know what his final form is going to be!

Spoiler

the entire joke is you wrote mecha corporation (as in a corporation robot), not mega corporation (as in big business)

…

Ah dammit, that one is on me XD

Gonna keep that one up there, that is honestly a pretty awesome typo

 

[nielspeterdejong]

He'll look so majestic all grown up.

Man… that show felt like a fever dream. A pretty fun fever dream mind you XD But hopefully Heero’s adult form will look a tad more majestic

 

[cryum]

Oh man, you summed it up well. Hopefully people will be wiser next time, so they don’t fall for such an obvious scam anymore.

Small businesses had to be closed, but mecha corporations like Mc’Donalds were allowed to stay open. Corporations which also strangely sponsored the whole hysteria surrounding it through mainstream media, yet never walked around with masks on themselves unless they were in front of camera’s.

I gotta hand it to them, they made a killing during that time. Both the mecha corporations that were able to destroy all their smaller competitors, as well as big pharma which was able to force people to buy and take it through social and governmental pressure. And if the side effects of that revolutionary new NMRA medication (which they were able to test on so many of us like guiny pigs) are any indication, quite literally as well.

And they won’t suffer any consequences, because at the start of COVID they forced governments to sign a contract that stated that if there were to be negative consequences to the NMRA medication (which was not a vaccine, they just lied about it being one) they would conveniently not be held accountable.

Oh well, fortunately that will never happen again right? That is, until the current generations grow old and die off, and the newer ones forget about it because history lessons are boring…

Yeah, now I’m kinda beginning to understand how an elf would feel about humans…

Mecha corporations? I'm sorry, WHEN did mcdonalds get mecha?

 

[BanzaiYuri]

So is it "Heee-roh" or "He-Ero" ? 😼

 

[AReadingAddict]

Im scared about what happened during the time skip, I also love how the phoenix knows its cute and fluffy as a chick and embraces it.

 

[Wolvenworks]

Hey it’s Macca’s. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have a Ronald Mcdonald mecha somewhere to counter the Pepsi Navy.

You DO know that MRNA vaccines were being researched for at least a decade before COVID, right? What side effects do you think there were? And yeah, it'll happen again, just like this time because it was about 100 years since the Spanish Flu, and everyone that remembered having to change their lifestyle and habits because of it was dead. Before that was the Black Plague, and who knows how many pandemics that were only prevented from being global catastrophes by the relative inability to travel. That the COVID death toll was remarkably low in comparison is thanks to that MRNA vaccine.

 

[nielspeterdejong]

Ever since their icecream machines stopped working.

I mean, think about it, in order to get mechs you need a lot of parts. So they took those parts from their icecream machines. Hence why they never work

 

[KE1tea]

wait hmm he gave his life force to hatch the phoenix, but high elves are immortal so he didn't shorten his life? and a body of a high elf is buried under the egg, which suggests that the physical body of a high elf has infinite life force...
wait does that mean he could hatch he phoenix as many times as he wants? infinite life force generator...

Oh I know.

I also know that the researchers have often expressed concerns about the potential side effects before, as proven by said tests. Plus, it has never been tested on so many people before, and especially not with this specific NMRA gene therapy method that was only “tested” for three months. Even the vaccines would require at least years of testing.

And no, the COVID numbers were inflated, as suddenly the flu stopped existing during that time. People who died from other sources were listed as “COVID deaths” by hospitals in order to get additional funds.

But even then, the number of cases had already decreased by the time of “vaccination”, as people had build up natural immunity. Then they introduced the COVID “vaccine”, and suddenly it increased. Remember the “sudden” spike?

Worse, they kept saying that taking it would prevent you from spreading it and getting it. Both were lies, as evident by the countless boosters they kept introducing.

Meanwhile Africa without any lockdowns did better than we did. Plus they don’t have the same cases of “excess death” afterwards as was found out by insurance companies:

https://www.wndnewscenter.org/its-the-jab-top-insurance-companies-report-spike-in-excess-deaths/

We got played, simple as. Hopefully future generations will be wiser than we were.

I don’t think he gave his life force. He used the power of his dragon scales in order to create a torrent of energy which was absorbed by the egg instead.

Looks like the mythic armband that the “damned dwarf” gave him came in clutch

I hope Heero becomes a tiny chick and travels with Aesir
