Thanks for the chapter. My illogical and subjective opinion: With the way his skills (especially his spells) are going and the gain of skills points, I cannot imagine how he could kill thousands of warriors in one blow at level 80. He doesn't only need a high level or high stats, his skills (and spells) have to be developed enough to not be useless. These are the ways I see it (for it to work in the game as here he could just learn the spells and skills manually like everyone): - One of his universal level (I forgot what it was) items give him skill points for a certain amount of kills. - At a certain level, the amount of skills points needed drastically diminish. Eg: As a Battle Mage all Mage spells only need two skills points to be learnt at their highest level. - At a certain level the gain of skills points increase drastically. Eg: For a rank B quest you gain an average of 20 skill points. - When a spell reach a certain level it grows with the player. Eg: If South become stronger his shadows will automatically become strong enough to still be useful against foes at his level. I started reading just two days ago but this problem keeps haunting.
there is a high probability that the skills level up are more exponential than linear. Based of the novel so far. It seems that every 10 levels, the skill upgrades itself substantially more than the past upgrades. However, there are skills that start of at higher ranks. This would enable the MC to continue to be stronger as long as he obtains the prerequisite of a higher mage level as it allows him to use more "evolved" spells. (in my own opinion)
In theory, there is darkness itself within the human body so he should be able to kill people using the darkness near the heart or other major organs to pierce said organs. If he manages to get fine enough control over his Shadows/Darkness and modify one of his spells to be able to attack on a smaller scale, the shadow bind tentacle spell would be perfect. I really hope after this fight which should really highlight his major weaknesses he starts to deal with some of the weaknesses, whatever they may be. Then hopefully he will be able to fight a group of people at his same level of power with little to no effort. Also maybe he is just not using it correctly but it feels like despite being one of the peak goblin species, the goblin corrupter is very weak overall. Or maybe it will really show its power in the next tier of whatever he chooses meaning he specifically chose the corruptor species to build on its ability later on. Or he just needs to start fighting hand to hand.
