"Congratulations, Ascended Nightingale. Welcome to the club… the I Killed Myself club? No, that doesn't sound right. Let's call it the Othercide Club. You know, for people who killed the other, evil version of themselves."

oh and as for the introvert bit we've seen him interact with people before and he wasn't bothered by almost any social interaction where the other person wasn't definitively more powerful than him and intending to wield that against him.
Hmm… yes. Why should she? Jay wondered. He didn’t want to jump straight to threatening her. It was the simple solution, but it would leave a bitter taste in his mouth if he did.

what part of pressing someone into the mud is more respectful than opening an interaction with a hello. as for caution I agree he should have been cautious, but cautious isn't a blitz attack its speaking from a distance. if she'd been even near the prowess her level made her out to be jay'd be filling in for all the bones he put into the river as food for the carnivorous fish.

arachne isn't actually a god she was a monster made from a woman similarly to the lamia. arachne's story basically boils down to one of two scenarios. 1 she brags or is bragged about being the greatest weaver in existence, athena hearing this challenges her, and finally when athena beats her arachne doesn't take it well so athena punishes her by making her the first spider. 2 is the same except arachne truly is superior to athena and athena is the one that throws a tantrum ultimately turning arachne into the first spider again. the story's only variant is in who was truly the greater weaver, but arachne was always just a mortal woman as that was the issue the gods had with her (a mortal claiming or being hailed as superior to the gods). in some stories she becomes immortal in the same way other monsters are immortal in that when they die they are only killed temporarily, but she never becomes a god.
[We will come up with something suitably impressive for you. But maybe it will be simple. Thor named himself after the God of Lightning, so perhaps you would like to be named after the Spider Goddess, Arachne?] Karl suggested.

true
That was the best praise that they had managed to get out of her yet, and Karl was sure that it was a good sign that she was warming up to them a little bit.

that is a very generous interpretation of what the humanoid figure looks like, but if the bear was also slightly deformed then yeah I guess it could be mistaken for that if the lights were very dim.
But you didn't get to pick and choose your targets in a fight. There was a threat, and you had to deal with it, so this sort of training would be incredibly valuable to them later. Karl knew that there were many species of giant humanoid monsters as well. Orcs, Trolls, Ogres, Owlbears and many more.

owlbears? since when is an owlbear a humanoid creature?

why he's literally been going around letting anyone and everyone know exactly who he was and he has dealt with far more powerful organizations than these people without a mask and those organizations were far more likely to be in a position to influence his daily life
After some consideration, he decided to wear the White Mask that he had obtained from the treasury of the Ruri Kingdom.

taikonaut is actually the Chinese version of an astronauts so he actually did know the word
It probably could, considering that the force propelling the flying vessel was sorcerous in nature. However, that didn't mean that the helmsman and the passengers would survive space. So, this was probably as close as Sunny would ever get to being a taikonaut… a cosmonaut? Astronaut? Whatever the word was.

well it certainly counts for more than telling her you killed her, but considering anake's fate and both hers and yours reactions not by much.
'But then again, adding that your evil version betrayed the other Defiled and brutally slaughtered countless innocent people just to create a future where she remains alive… should count for something, right? I mean… it's a bit romantic. Right?'

likely the same way he remembers the past that is his future. the sin of solace. remember he was said to be almost sane despite the defilement which sunny stated was likely due to the sin of solace weaponizing a fraction of his brain against the rest of it thus driving the sane insane and the insane towards sanity.
The purpose of the mysterious Memory… was to prevent the Sin of Solace from sharing any knowledge of the previous cycles with Sunny. So that he never remembered what had happened in the past, and therefore never learned the cursed knowledge of Defilement.

well they were a divine terror so that makes sense

or a smuggler's box
After around seven cycles of darkness and light — he couldn't tell exactly how many because of how strange time had become — he successfully altered the [Capacious Chest] enchantment of the Covetous Coffer to allow it to store living beings. He had not copied the weave of a Supreme Memory, but rather borrowed a few elements from it.

there are two flaws with that thought. 1 remember his shadow fragments reset aftereach core is filled and 2 he can't gain shadow fragments from weaker creatures so only a corrupted/transcendent or higher creature would give him a fragment after his descent to corrupted. that being said he could still be a fully saturated titan, but he could also have 1/7000 as well.
Oh, and he had also become a Terror. His soul possessed six cores now, and he possessed six shadows. His power had once again grown, and there was now only one step separating him from its pinnacle.

lol definitely

yeah its a transcendent terror and to make it even more ridiculous its literal only job at the moment is to protect a single girl who possibly isn't even a dormant level entity.
It took him a few moments to come to terms with what he was looking at. There was no denying it, indeed — Sunny was a Terror now. A creature of dreadful power, second only to the calamitous Titans.

probably not. Its unconfirmed, but I would assume the number and strength of the risen dead plays a part in his ability to control them and there is an uncountable number of them with the weakest being strong corrupted creatures. add on to that they're different from normal given they were already awake without the bone flute its probably even harder to influence them

he actually has used the tree forts and walkways in battle before its just been a bit I believe they were last used against the empire when the paladins showed up they were just only mentioned in passing. as for named scrolls legendary ones are pretty much guaranteed to be superior not to mention he has a reliable method for creating legendary scrolls while he has to buy the named one. as for tacticians and civilian experts the legendary scrolls as well as mass summoning from basic scrolls will cover most of that. the defensive buildings and teleportation ideas aren't bad, but so far he has only faught the xylon alliance in his own territory once so its not the most useful to him if he intends to keep the battle on the plains, but who knows since he knows the trilliance is essentially over.
"Soultraits, Legendary Scrolls, and Artifacts are among the easiest ways to grow stronger. Even Ordinary Scrolls can be considered a way to grow stronger, but only for me as the Lord with all Links of Loyalty." Michael murmured deep in thought.

see that actually doesn't matter. even if Rae was twice as stealthy as the students the point here is not how good they are, but the fact that they are capable of decent stealth abilities that use methods seperate from the method Rae uses now. the reason this matters is layered skills. the assassins silent steps don't suddenly become less effective because they start wearing less noisy shoes nor does their ability to camouflage their skin/outfit lessen the effectiveness of having a second layer of magic shadows that can lessen both thermal and other alt sight abilities effectiveness against them. all these do is compliment eachother not compete against eachother.
Learning something new was usually down to the quality of the instruction that you received, but the teacher wasn't showing off skills here, and honestly, the students weren't much better at hiding themselves than Rae already was with her ability to change her exterior coloration.
