Did anyone else notice this? The phone number of that high-roller illegal gambler "Mr Choi", which shows up on the loan-shark leader's phone, in chap. 46, is shown the same as the one that appears on Dan's phone with the text message from the CEO of Baek Jumin's gym: "010-1XXX-2XXX" ... Does that mean what I think it means?
I'm assuming it's the same guy; boss dude Choi probably ordered his underlings to fuck up jaekyung's opponent's leg so he could throw in jumin to go against jaekyung. Honestly I think his goal is more to ruin jaekyung as an althete both physically and reputationally so I'm quite worried about this match
Ok, here's my new theory: he *might* (key word, *might*) be inducing the women to hang themselves... if the women were complicit in a crime, caused his sister to be killed in order to cover that crime up, and so he threatens them with exposing everything and ruining their entire families unless they off themselves... Crazy, I know.
So... ...the one who choked Amy must've been a rich girl, too..?
But how are so many ghost girls related to Amy's death? ...If they even are...? (If it was a bullying incident gone out of hand...)
Yeah, I thought that at first, too, but if that was the case Amy would no longer stay as a likable character... since readers would wonder at Amy not feeling sorrier for the *completely* innocent victims, enough to be doing lots more in order to stop her brother... moreover when there's been a living person she's now able to communicate with, for so many months...
What if that's why her soul still roams about? I'm not sure on the particulars of this world's afterlife, but what if she holds guilt for keeping her brothers sins a secret for so long? And what if she didn't tell the ML because it hadn't really come up before this. Like the time wasn't right.. Cuz before this the professor didn't seem sus did he?? Or maybe I missed smthn in one of the chapters..
Do you guys think there's a chance Anubis might finally learn the truth about his past, right in the next chapter?
I think that might be possible, now that Isis and Anubis were both shown that "record" by Sekhmet (which, according to Sekhmet's wager to Isis, in chapter 127, was something Isis ALSO didn't know). I think there's a chance both Isis and Anubis might end up connecting the dots between Osiris wanting to have a child with Seth, and the fact that he later secretly had a child with Seth's wife.
I also really hope they do... now that re-reading chapter 107 rekindled my anger at Osiris, and my feeling that the author might have been hinting that Anubis' has kept unconcious memories, which he might recover, since day one:
After he comes to the wrong conclusion (in chapter 106) that Seth showing he cares so much care about him might be because they were lovers in the past, he kisses Seth, and Horus comes to fight Anubis, only to have Seth faint in his (Horus') arms (in chapter 107), and that's when Anubis talks to himself about feeling a pain he can't explain, at seeing Seth fainting in sadness, and Anubis talks to himself about how he thinks that pain is related to unconscious memories: "I've never felt this kind of pain before. If my IB is responding like this, does that mean I'm remembering something?" (In other words, it reminded me that Anubis' been talking about having unconscious memories and feeling confused since day one...)
...I'm really hoping Anubis will finally see how Osiris has been using Anubis' godly intuition about the father-son bond between them (Osiris and Anubis) to mislead, use, and exploit him... and how that adds to Anubis having a choice, and to Anubis not being obligated by blood ties alone, to keep consider him "his father"
BTW, this keeps making me think that the contrast "blood ties vs heart-felt family bonds" is a big theme in this story (how Seth and his siblings seem to think "blood ties alone aren't enough to make one *feel* a family bond, you also have to work on buidling it")... I always thought it striking how Isis said to her father Geb in chapter 64: "You were never fond of humans, or anyone else besides mother, for that matter"... like she was recriminating Geb for not being very involved in his children's lives.
I kinda agree with this.
Even though he cannot technically "unfather" Osiris, since everyone's related here, he can still choose what to see him as. I hope he sees him as someone who used him in a very bad way.
This can also be applied to other gods. I mean they're all brothers and sisters at some point and even married each other. I think the author is trying to change the relationships and dynamics here compared with the mythologies we're used to reading.








Ugh yeah, ML, that's so "wise". You keep doing that, leading on the "easy prey", then call them "clingy" and get rid of them ... BUT... ever heard of the "Boy who cried Wolf" story?
...One day you might just end up crossing paths with one of the REAL... "clingy" stalkers, FOR REAL
I mean, is it so hard to be honest and just say you don't want a serious relationship
