(Dis)honourable Demons, unknowingly giving the grateful & crafty youth of the Ultimate Magicians free life & combat lessons since the last demonic generation.
@stanfromis_9 @Freshguac this isn't Shin-exclusive solo-leveling method into godhood kinda manga. It's essentially:-
1. These Ultimate Magicians need the rest of the human countries to witness the demon's rapid rise after the downfall of the old empire with their own two ignorant eyes & one smol brain, then handle the endurance battle themselves.
2. This isn't just Shin's new world for the taking. Shin doesn't aspire to conquer the whole world by & for himself.
3. They're looking for the suicidal priest & co first before launching their side of purge.
@mahtan they were spying & studying Shin & co for ages diligently before this, remember? Sometimes they're discovered, but the other times they managed to assimilate themselves in human population flawlessly. Other than that, I can bet it's because they evolved into demonhood that they're able to accumulate so much magical power, so doing magical things come naturally for them, even more so after they studied the humans. These bunch under Strom are all frighteningly quick & strong, including their evolved brain.
