High Wisdom would have him realize she should try to just get every skill book made for all sorts of mundane things because of synergistic abilities between skills and it would most likely make his territory game better.

His golems need manual dexterity sounds like he needs needle craft, sewing, cross stitch and other skills. Also why the hell doesn't he turn them into a potion factory and just sell consumables.

As always, the reason he isn't running a potion factory is due to his low wisdom.

I like that he's got a fresh new way to exploit gamer's mind, looking forward to seeing him do that. Also all his bullshit hax have worked out for him until now, so I really want him to get into demon spells and then realize that oops, Baal's got like full claim to his soul and/or his mind's super messed up now because of it, whoopsie! Just have one thing seriously backfire on him after he's done so much winning, and then we get the skill explanation/grinding to fix that.

Oh this wouldn't be a punishment for him to grind out a fix to baal-mind, I just think it'd be a fun new type of grinding for us to see. Grind to fix a problem in his character build instead of improve it. Hell have it take place entirely in his mind and show his mental landscape in the comic, next-level grinding there. Instead of just seeing him meditate for a panel or two we dive into his psyche.

I stopped reading for a bit, but I've caught up on roughly 2-3 years of updates. I think I laughed loudest when the healing golem poked his head out of the ground to shoot a healing lazer at Jeehan during his final battle with the Saint of the Church of Masks.

Low wisdom is such a meme already, but agreeing to a contract prompt without more info has to be in that category. Looking forward to seeing the details of what that actually involves. I'm totally down for it being something very similar to a marriage contract and seeing the fallout that would come from that, been a minute since we had romance goofs take center stage.

I forgot he already got smooched once by his sensei, she's certainly in the lead among the harem right now.

I was also a bit surprised that after a long running theme of people being freaked out at his insane power, his reaction after getting back from hell was "I'm weak as hell and I need to power up more." I guess it makes sense given that if he hadn't had extra questions pending he might have been well and truly screwed over by baal, but it's not the mindset I was expecting from him. Good on the people behind the manhwa for surprising me I suppose.

Looks like he got that free druid upgrade. He can also tick "literally live forever" off the list of things to get done, just has that as a freebie now.

Jee-Han's going to eventually make the equivalent of a super-nuke for the Abyss, but until then at least he gets to freeload off of the auction and get lots of stuff. Once he gets even a few in-demand magic item recipes then any time he wants more money I have to figure he can just order materials, craft that item, and make wild profits.

By the way, Jee-Han (pre tower/golem upgrade) was passively making more than $8 million USD worth of golems every day. So you know, that's a thing.

But now he's actually going to get into real crafting to finally make that real money and power.

I love me this comic, but oof my broke butt did not need to be reminded how crazy rich Jee-Han is.

I remember this part in GTA:San Andreas, I captured 80% of the city as soon as the territory mechanic was introduced only to get kicked out a few story missons later

Also goddamn Jee-Han, a little arrogant aren’t we? Put points in wisdom idiot!!!!

I’m not so sure, the translation’s kind of spotty. He listed the Cheonbu guild next to the Yeonhon guild and the Church of Masks; is he taking those over and destroying them too? Or is he listing them because they already count as his territory?

Ha, if he's already confident enough that with his new tower he could take on the Ninth gate, then imagine if this works like most strategy games and he can build up a tower or some other crazy building on the territory he conquers. There were a LOT of little dots on that map of his.

Gonna be hilarious if charisma turned out to be the super useful stat he needed to do this mass invasion without pissing out everyone and getting them to ally against him. If I'm one of the little groups that just got golem squashed then I'd definitely be teaming up to go after this upstart gamer jerk.

Now I want all the shady organizations that aren't literally adjacent to him to team up, all of the evil abyss in Korea vs. Jee-Han... and it's still NOT ENOUGH.

Yeah more towers is the plan now, but if it's going to replicate a proper strategy game I wouldn't be surprised if he got some other unique options. At a minimum we know he can make like a mini-base thing with golem factories and "buildings" supporting them within his territory.
