Only a fool thinks there is no merit to returning to school every once in a while to refresh yourself or learn new techniques/research in your field of expertise.

@firosahoge Wow. Thanks for telling me that. I'll wait to see that for sure. Well, better "play safe" than overdoing it *run*

 

[Ptakers]

can some1 tell me is there a way 2 block garbage trans from appearing in me feed??

 

[Hexxy]

Godspeed You! Black Emperor

 

[Psychronia]

Haha! I'm getting more "dad" than romance vibes from Asley's thoughts about Rina. Which is fine by me.

Is it just me or is the woman Pochi was chatting with look like she was dressed for a funeral?

 

[FTU]

A mere mortal with no talent got an immortal body based on luck and after 5000 years of being in solitude researching and got his knowledge to an "alright" level

I say "alright" because HE cultivated for 5k years and are still useless against 20+ levels higher than him unless he uses "dynimates" aka artifacts to beat them.

I call BS on the author for making him only level 20 after 5k years.

And if he can't defeat the Black Emperor in one strike, he's trash.

I am only here for the romance but it's non-existence so far. So it's quite boring.

[mahtan]

[xtheconman]

the guy's name is dragan - wow author, how imaginative

 

[_stultus]

the battle of glasses shall commence!

 

[MXCL]

Glad there's no romance do far. I'd hate that shit in something like this. Also I like how the adult males are either plain like MC or super handsome like dragon

 

[Cruelsanto]

I feel like the lady pochi was talking with is the mother of the girl with buns

 

[Cruelsanto]

Lmao, the battle of the meganes, 3 glasses wearing guys now including MC

That Warren guy is either a demon in disguise or a demon-worshipping human—which I think is more likely.

Edit: Was I right? Was I wrong?

Spoiler: Answer

I was

wrong. Dead wrong. Annoying as he is, he's actually a reliable ally and one of the key characters in the story.

I read the web novel, so I know the answer. Spoiler warning, of course.

Spoiler: 5000 years

First of all, levels are gained by defeating monsters, and the only time he leaves his dungeon can probably be counted on one hand. That’s why his level is only 20, which I assume was reached even before he locked himself away in the dungeon.

Now, about his power—why does he only have so much ability even after 5000 years? It’s because he’s a fool. He has ridiculously low compatibility with magic. When he was rejected from the magic university, he should have just become a warrior since that’s where his true latent talent lies. But no, he’s a fool.

And he foolishly did magic research for thousands of years. He spent months mastering basic spells that would take others only a day to learn if they were compatible with magic. I believe he even mentioned spending nine whole months to master a single spell that his peers could learn in just a day. Just imagine how long it would take him to learn intermediate or advanced spells. The time required would be astronomical. But he’s a fool, so he doesn’t care and just keeps researching.

Please understand, though, that he’s incredibly skilled at magic, considering how ridiculously low his compatibility with it is. Also, his stats, especially his MP, are an absurdity. Normal people wouldn’t have that much MP at just level 20. That’s a result of the immense effort he’s put into studying magic over the years. Also, he doesn’t focus solely on offensive or defensive magic. He often goes off on tangents, researching useless things that take precious time away from increasing his power.
