Discussion I just finished reading it

I started reading it weekly years ago but ended up pausing it near the end and just forgot about the whole story so I decided to come back to it and reread it 8 days ago.

I read it all and now I'm sad, the epilogues made me feel empty and sad, I'm happy that everyone got their happy ending but why is my king not happy ☹️ it's a realistic and really good ending, I loved it, the final arc was amazing, a masterpiece.

I'm just spoiled, I wished that Mori lived an ordinary happy life like the ones he gave everyone.. BUT I KNOW THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE AND IT HURTS, in the end he never really got what he wanted for real...

Anyways, I just had to get it all out..

But Mori got exactly what he wanted? That was the entire point of him choosing to both live a happy life and be an all-powerful god.

I mean, I guess.. but I think he did that because he had a sense of responsibility for everyone, I just thought that he would want to just live together with Ahan and Taejin and enjoy life with Mira and Daewi, but he has to destroy the fragments of thatagattha for everyone to have a safe future

Him destroying the sixth letter and closing the dimensional cracks is part of why he's so happy. He lives to battle, it's what gives him the most joy. Having surpassed the very principles that hold reality itself together, Mori could snap his fingers and fix the dimensional crack issue no problem, but he doesn't want that, he wants to fight.

Basically He's the author of the novel at the end.

He views his own verse as fiction.

Yes. The English translations don't do his power justice. He is above all concepts. He is everywhere and nowhere. Others appear as characters in a novel. Fate is irrelevant.

And you still have people thinking he's only universal for nulling mubong kick which doesn't even make sense as his malice would encompass all of the different space times within their universe.

Also mujin managed to hurt that version of Mori, barely but he did it. Imagine hurting a being that is beyond all concepts and distinctions. Both of them are the god of the prophecy with different paths supported by their own prophets.

You need to do a deeper scope dive on tathagatha. And his manipulation of the karmic cycle. I mean he had full control over it and set into motion Mori's fate across all timelines in their multiverse.

People downplay him too much because he doesn't have any quote on quote feats.

After achieving Nirvana, Mubong landed a total of 2 hits on Mori. Once while Mori was caught off guard because he was busy aura farming (also not quite used to his new power just yet) and the then again when they were battling through pure martial arts while Mori was going easy on him (Mori directly said he wouldn't, but it's clear that he was lol) and Mubong simply barely scratched Mori's ear. Throughout the rest of that fight, Mori was absolutely fucking violating Mubong.

The post powernull fight was merely symbolic, I don't really consider that a feat for mubong other than his tenacity.

The first instance is far more impressive for actually being able to hurt a Nirvana being at all, irrelevant of circumstances. Others couldn't even dream of doing something like this and I don't just mean in GoH.

Yeah. But that stab through Mori's chest was so insignificant due to Mori's superior existence. Mubong landed the blow, but Mori's reaction was saying "what are you doing, that hurt..." and asserting his dominance over Mubong and Tathagata.

I see that makes sense and makes me feel better

I mean, he chose to be all powerful AND have vacations to visit his homies every now and then

It's just adult life

Real bro 🤣

He's happy I don't know what you mean.

He's is all powerful and is living his best life.

He's not ordinary and he doesn't really want to be ordinary either, thats kinda his story.

I guess I just misinterpreted it, I keep seeing him as too human probably
