The Bugle Call: Song of War - Vol. 12 Ch. 38 - What Unfurls Beneath the Night Sky

[raizen-_]

What Lucas did is the equivalent of dropping a nuke on a town

Anyone else watching Foundation might find it hilarious that the solution to the Lucas menace is essentially the same as Dusk's solution for the Mule.

 

[Dracarus]

Lucas demands blood

[danbellucci]

presumably the papal states are going to bring a new pope out of stasis and have him find some other rami and send them after Lucas and the remaining pope forces.
Especially if they've had 2 months to consolidate and gather their forces . If lucas and hte pope defeat the garland and the empire then the papal future people are likely to get killed or disempowered.
So lucas and papal forces should only have a few weeks before getting caught in a pincer .

I do like that Lucas hasn't given up on his dreams per se, just putting them on hiatus until he steam rolls some people.
I wonder if he'll have a GonvPitou moment when he reconfronts the two

Brilliant chapter

 

[dixiegray03]

I—I genuinely didn't expect that. and poor garland, the facsimiles were her friends.

 

[Grye]

they fucked up

 

[panda34]

What a banger

 

[Mmmmello]

this shit makes me go

 

[fridgebro]

Damn

 

[Qulibilli]

✋😲🤚

 

[kuzyou]

Goodness gracious, what a chilling chapter...

It's always heartwarming to see a character all grown up 🥲

Joke aside, it was predictable that Lucas would go that way at some point. He never cared much for others beyond his friends, and the experience of using peoples as pawns again and again likely didn't help that.
I wouldn't be surprised if the reason he had no issue going after the citizens like that is because he is starting to see people has just moving part of their organisation, not individuals who may or may not agree with their rulers/boss.

It's time for one last ride.

yeah, seems like a little overreaction for him to become so grim and depressed when he has Zoe. I get him wanting revenge but he should still be able to enjoy things when he has the other person that he likes/loves still around.

man got told all the suffering he's directly caused and experienced is basically a cute little game for the entertainment of alien forces, then got betrayed, and then saw one of his best friends die

if that wasn't enough for him to take it as a personal declaration of war on the futurists he might as well be a saint

And just as Zoe sees more and more people as not-potatoes, and as Garland starts thinking about and enjoying doing other stuff than killing.
