Mmph! I thought he would become a dragon amongst men, but it seems he'll be stepping on the murim world yet again.
Thanks for the chapter.

"No, but the name sounds like something a 5th grader thought up."

Ok, but what happened to the dude that was there before?

You can’t just set up a guy and let readers care for him, then plant another soul in his body and try to make us believe he is the same man.

@Animeknight "Power Rangers Wuxia"

 

[TheStuffedUnicorn]

@keimichi you cared about him?

I want her hat

The pattern on it changes every time she appears. This means the artist is probably drawing it every time, no idea how he/she puts up with that.

@TheStuffedUnicorn : I care more about old MC than the reborn one.

 

[Animeknight]

@gaigous Lol, yep.

 

[Keimichi]

@TheStuffedUnicorn
Only in the sense that it was his problems and his life. Might not be necessarily a good character, but we are presented with character conflicts that are about him. He has a “personality” rather than just being a faceless backstory, and is in a situation where it is set up for his character growth. Then you have another character just replace him in a way that any “character growth” feels unearned because MC is already a different person, and if he changes it will still not be the same person as the initial set up.
Other series don’t have this problem because we never meet the “previous host”, so the conflicts the MC is presented is purely the MC’s. Essentially, it’s an issue of POV. We are presented the conflict in one POV, then given the resolution from another POV.

@Keimichi I couldn't care less for the original bodies owner, my condolences to those who got attached to him.

Yea, i've heard of the dragon defender. It gives a +6 strength bonus iirc.

@Animeknight
It sounds like a console/mobile game a 5th grader would enjoy.

 

[Animeknight]

@Kaarme lol

 

[Mojokex]

@wilt02 you are a god for that Runescape reference.

The faces are terrible in this chapter. How could we go from the cuite teacher from the last panel of the previous chapter to Mrs Alien in this one?

.....the fuck man? What about the old MC? He's just written off?

A dual personality would be nice. One side the introvert the other pushing him to grow a spine. Instead he's gone
