There's nothing well played here, he just got someone with infinite authority on his side that nobody can question. It's just overpowered.Well played, Baal. Very well played.
There was nothing incremental, he just got the in-story equivalent of the Pope on his side giving him whatever he wants.Baal really played this perfectly with these incremental plays that let him tear it all down like this.
Hardly. He's been scheming and planning this for a very long time, at least two hundred chapters back. He could only have done this because he put up with Princess Shura and slowly curried favor with her over a long period of time. This is the culmination of his machinations stretching back all the way to the Six Fingers' attack on Walter Park.Baal won this by doing almost nothing lmao
I think that Baal and Narnia´s objectives clashI would like a more authoritative figure of Princess Shura to appear, like Shura's mother/father/uncle/aunt, and see through Baal's good Samaritan mask and somehow see from a distance what actually happened at Deviculum. And as a side note, I hope my hypothesis that Thoth could be Shura's uncle becomes true.
My alternative theory would be that Clara's father is actually a deity and in the past he could have had some kind of adventure and after that adventure Shura came out, and after Clara's father met Clara's mother, and that's how Clara came out plus the rest of Clara's brothers and sister.
Although if Baal becomes the demon king, the demon world will fall into chaos as he wants, and maybe Naberius Narnia aka Fenrir will be like a kind of secretary/right hand man for Baal, because Naberius Narnia aka Fenrir can create an ideal world that he wants and say that this is on the orders of the demon king Baal.
No... it's for his own good. She's the type of person Iruma could never say no to. The type of person he's afraid of. Which is why everyone is waiting for Baal to face the consequences of colluding with such a dangerous person. She's caged him the moment hearts started forming in her eyes.Imagine if Iruma had been the one to save Shura at the deviculum instead of Baal...
It's no wonder why Baal got in the way; he intended to do this from the start!
Not just this chapter, but his long game. He took advantage of many different moments to secure a powerful alliance with Shura, and continued the ruse until this moment. Sullivan might have suspected Baal had some goal, but never knew the endgame. And now the three Greats are staring down the end of a sword from the wrong end. Their actions here are limited without further help, and Baal knows it.There's nothing well played here, he just got someone with infinite authority on his side that nobody can question. It's just overpowered.
We have already set up a "rescue our boyfriend" storyline.Baal really played this perfectly with these incremental plays that let him tear it all down like this. I think if the worst case scenario happens we may get a full Iruma in human world arc where he punches his way back through with Alikred. The parallels between Iruma as delkiras successor is also really interesting, I think the reason he disappeared is that delkira fully reincarnated as "the perfect human" to match who he was as "the perfect demon".
...Man ngl yeah I see how the princess might be getting a bit annoying. I really hope she doesn't just stay as this tool. She doesn't know anything, nor does she have responsibility, etc but just has like all the power just cuz.
If Hagrid never came, Harry would have never become a wizard.Imagine if Iruma had been the one to save Shura at the deviculum instead of Baal...
