Hiraheishi wa Kako wo Yumemiru - Vol. 5 Ch. 40 - The Start of a Nightmare

[MangaDex]

 

[Beregorn]

The most magnificent pair of manboobs ever drawn...

 

[SomeGuy1]

And then, suddenly, dragons demons. Because that is how plots develop: sudden and basically random emergencies.

 

[Xical]

Emergency Urgent Quest: Demons is active now.

 

[Muklas]

The RNG giveth and the RNG taketh away.

 

[Riger]

And that was the impetus to grab the sword.

 

[RC1138Boss]

So if he keep himself close to the sword he will be able to handle it eventually?

 

[AxeBurningfire]

What if "doing everything you can" implies being a hero, John? Maybe you should think about that you man-shaped bonobo.
Fuck you John.

 

[twinklecake]

Man, poor Farenna really looks like she's been starving. Someone give this poor child a dragon soul to eat or something.

 

[noobtube2]

@RC1138Boss i think it's more like he can almost pull it out because Farenna took half his soul and that left the half that she took empty and waiting for something to fill it > the sword radiates the heroes soul > he's near it and the empty part is filled > half his soul is that of the hero's so he cant do anymore than he currently can because it was filled.

 

[Miyacchi]

When you just finished "Emergency Code : Duel" then move to another room only to get "Emergency Code : Defense"

Joke aside, has John ever mention his teacher? It doesn't feel impactful at all he meeting his old teacher

 

[mahtan]

Saved by a butt's hair there...

 

[NoMemory]

@Miyacchi he mentioned him couple chapters ago, said something to his best homie about visiting him ( the master ) after the test or something(?)

 

[spekhz]

Man's pull out game is weak

 

[kuzunagi13]

shuddap! im not crying!

 

[Manga-Titan]

Even though they just introduced the old man, I actually felt teary. But demons! Wtf, isn't it a bit soon? Well, he is changing the future. Gotta expect many changes.

 

[ThaTruth0218]

The door was supposed to summon who he thought was the strongest. So why wasn't it the demon lord or 1 of the heroes? Calling plot on this one.

 

[OllyMolly]

Oh lol I was wrong about the sword & him. He's still the side-main character, not the chosen Hero.

@ThaTruth0218 It's not wrong at all to look at your life mentor as the strongest being alive (instead of his father, as an example). Why not your best person instead of an undefeatable archenemy? It's because the Old Man was & is his greatest admiration, highly regarded, & the closest person that shaped him to be who he was at the peak of his life while the world's crisis was at the worst. It's not plot, it's who you prefer to look up to from the feeling of your heart. & along that line of thought, why would you even look up to your enemy who'd kill you in a heartbeat? & he doesn't have fear toward the strongest being he knew (like the demon lord he couldn't even face upfront), thus his Old Man was the choice his heart made to face in the trial.

TlDr: He only has the highest regards, admiration & deepest remembrance for the one being strong enough to personally shape him to also be strong to face the impossible in the future. & fear (toward the demon lord as a strong being) isn't what controls him to influence that test.

 

[xeno77]

"a swarm of demons" well i guess its annihilation time (ik its gonna be some monsters probably but demons should be the strong stuff but they arent gonna have a swarm of demons attack

 

[monkey123]

Oh lol not cucked.
