Anti-Justopean prejudice.

Their government sucks, but that doesn't mean their people do!

I mean, Justopea isn't a democracy, so it's not like you can make the argument that, if the people didn't suck, they wouldn't keep electing governments that suck. (Looking at you, United States. I know not all of you suck, but Jesus Fucking Christ do a lot of you suck.)

Two persons, at least one of them a magic user, stealing magical artefacts? Where did I read of those?

I wonder if Guy will be updated on the Veda project's status, especially that of the leader.

The basic twist would be that they work for/with Veda, and that she hired Guy to get him off her tail and get rid of him indirectly.

I've been thinking about the timeline and I just realised something. At the point that Noah gets briefed for Malhart they mention the pirate of the storm and seemingly her battle with Burk. Seems like some time would need to have passed for these rumors to reach the empire.

The government sucks, the people don't; but what about Veda? Do I need to subscribe to the Patreon to find out?

@noname: Justopea does have an elected President as well as the Emperor (strange that they appear to have two heads of state, you'd expect the elected official to have a title like Prime Minister or some equivalent thereof). The real power appears to lie in the hands of the JSP of course, or at least, it did at the time of the Haven incident, things may have changed since then.

Why does he say they are immortal? IIRC only the orange beard guy could "resurrect", they should have no reason to think the golden hair guy is "immortal".

I just tried coming up with an anagram for LINA VEDA, the only one I get is EVIL NADA. That should mean she is a good person, right?

45189: Melany - Monday, December 23 2024 - 9:08 AM

I wonder if Veda has some form of mind control power. She seems to have way too easy of a time getting Justopean officials on her side, plus the near-fanatical devotion Nail has for her. Hallowman's inability to kill her may be a manifestation of it as well.

It's not 100% guaranteed but there certainly are signs.

@Eight

Oh hey! Looking back at that chapter, noticing the purple clad guy a few pages later wearing a familiar symbol.

@Silver
Noah was told that they haven't heard of the Pirate since the Pirate attacked Justopea, which happened long ago. So they didn't know of the fight with Burk, the fight probably hadn't even happened yet.

Ahh right I didn't remember this one well

@?tte
Pet theory no. 1: That was Garimon, the founder of the Global Order and creator of the golems.

Pet theory no 2: Lina Veda is a golem and works for Garimon
