So you're saying good, old Guy is MOST WANTED?

32049: Feddlefew - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 3:24 AM

Put me down for “Guy is or was a Royal Guard”.

32055: Tom - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 4:45 AM

It was good while it lasted.

Watch guy be the Scarlet Man lol

32059: Zed - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 6:51 AM

Guy has proven to have many years of detective/police work in his resumè, so I doubt it's anything over the top that spans his entire lifetime.

Him being a royal guard would be strange given the empire's penchant for wanting secrets to stay locked up, while he's now effectively investigating them.

Maybe Guy is an undercover Black Star hero. Hard to say what he *couldn't* be, all told - he's shown up a fair amount, but we still don't know much about him.

32061: Flairina - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 7:27 AM

Come to think of it, scratch that. Assuming the Black Star heroes are subject to the contracts as well, and assuming they never expire and are impossible to remove, any sort of hero is likely right out. So... Guy, secretly on the 10 most wanted criminals list? It has to be someone that Illuani would immediately recognize the name or reputation of, I'd assume. I don't really know; even with multiple rereads this comic has a LOT of lore and referenced characters to keep in mind. ^^;

Considering they want answers instead of just arresting or killing Pablo. I believe he will be able to talk his way out juuuuuust fiiiiiiine.

32067: Paintr - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 10:55 AM

We haven't gotten every list of famous people out there. It's entirely possible what he said was "I'm Guy Juliet" and Pablo doesn't know the particular underworld that name strikes fear in.
Though... I suspect it's something more dramatic.

Damn my boy Guy sure did go to the same school that Nicholas from Trigun and Joseph Joestar went, because that Guy sure is peak humanity in all the sences, intelligence and muscle department

Guy is the most famous detective of a Magic Hating Country that has actually developed physical fighters who can fight evenly with Magic User's even without using gold to neutralize their magic. Like, commoner's who don't gossip or like people (aka Noah) know of him. If he DOESN'T have an international reputation in the crime scene, it would be more surprising.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he received Royal Guard training, either from a parent or just the standard child-raising method, only to end up not being a Royal Guard.

@Paintr
In the eyes of the public he's known as a detective, with multiple published cases (https://neorice.com/hoh_noah_326)
Maybe that's just his public persona and he has another title under his sleeve

32082: King Random - Tuesday, June 14 2022 - 9:01 PM

What page is the 'most wanted' list on?

32104: UnknownID - Wednesday, June 15 2022 - 11:23 AM

Thanks a bunch for the chapter drop. Really wondering about Guy's identity and excited to see how Noah and Noel are doing :D

32115: A Loquacious Theorizer - Wednesday, June 15 2022 - 10:41 PM

@King Random you may be thinking of the top three in Lorg Tobi Escape From The Order, https://neorice.com/hoh_tobi_721 , of which Balthazar may be Guy, or the Game Tobi Questionaire, where https://neorice.com/hoh_tobi_2144 shows the top ten, with The Darkness Knight, who has a completely obscured face but is a Black Star Hero, and The Blue Bird, who resembles Silence much more than Guy.

Side note: apparently three Global Order people were in the Game and we just all ignored that?

AND three Saboteurs https://neorice.com/hoh_tobi_1164 ?
also someone in Ward 4 knows what the experiment is for and that means bookhead(Green?), Infinity, and Go?

WoW! What a chapter.
And while obviously our GigaChad guy's true identity is the hot topic, last panel just made me realise we have a case of schrodinger's cat!
Think about it: Pablo has to convince these heros of the contract conspiracy and the fact they are involved in it, without revealing the text itself because 1) the contract binds them to not go against heroland, and not knowing it may be the only loophole.
2) can't risk opening the box and the cat run away or disappear untill they are sure if is safe.

And thus, the quantum game begins :D
