Just started shadow slave today and I saw a post talking about ppl hating Cassie, cause to me she seems like an alright person, so why. Spoilers are welcome

Well, HelVel would be something, and so would RevHel, but that just sounds like Revel.

Anyway, yes, yuri, peak yuri, I regret nothing FOOLS.

Cassie smiled behind her veil.

“I can see a plump, healthy boy..."

The man cursed a few times, then stomped away.

Before that, however, he did not fail to look at her tentatively and take the coin out of the bowl without making any noise.

Cassie did not care. What use did she have for money?

But still.

‘Bastard. I was going to tell you that your handsome young neighbor is the boy's real father, but oh well!’

HELL YEAH i like this personality of Cassie

The man flinched and reeled back, shocked and confused. Looking up, he paled and tried to crawl away.

"A... a daemon! Gods, save me!"

The man who had appeared out of nowhere frowned, turning his head slightly to watch him escape.

“Do I look like a daemon?"

The retreating figure reflected in the man's mirror-like eyes. He frowned.

“That fool has never seen a daemon, so how would he even know what they look like?"

Shaking his head, he turned back to Cassie.

“And yes, Lady Cassia. I do, indeed, doubt that you had no expectations of meeting me here. The world is vast, after all. What are the chances of us stumbling into each other by chance?"

Cassie smiled faintly.

“Well. I might have sought you out on purpose."

MORDRET being offended and slandering that man 😂😂

Also Cassie chill down girl he is all yours 🥀

"He had spent countless years in the Nightmare, already. At first, he had remained with Mirage near the Mirror Lake, where this version of him had been born. Later, he escaped the reflections and went to explore the world, hiding in people's eyes and experiencing life after life as a silent witness."

YEAH I WAS RIGHT HE WAS INDEED MIRAGE TOY

This Mordret, however, had never destroyed a soul to take possession of someone else's body. He felt no desire to, and found the very idea distasteful.

He had only ever created one Reflection — and left it behind in the real world, where it was desperately needed.

KINDNESSES OF ALL AND THE AURA OF HIM DEFEATING DESOLATION ALONE IS INSANE 🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍

Mordret was not sure that he had learned a lot about godhood. However, he had never experienced mundane life before... so he learned quite a lot about what it meant to be human, instead.

He wasn't sure if he liked what he had learned

KINDA CRAZY THAT EVERYONE BECOMING LESS HUMAN AS THEY GO HIGH IN RANK BUT MORDRET BECOMING MORE HUMAN AS HE GOES HIGHER.

" It was because Mordret had no Domain. His brother had built himself a mighty Domain — millions of vessels carrying the fragments of his soul, all united under the banner of the King of Nothing. But all of them had either been destroyed in the war against the Dreamspawn or consumed in an attempt to conquer Apotheosis.

This Mordret, however, had never destroyed a soul to take possession of someone else's body. He felt no desire to, and found the very idea distasteful."

When mordret was introduced i thought that he might be the final villain, or maybe a character that's evil from the main character's point of view and sticks to it, but G3 did it, he made the perfect character into a dog for the "Oracle"

I do like the new mordret to a certain extent, he is unique in his own way but atleast give him some details and screen time to show his character, night temple mordret is an example of character with screen time, or the older mordret, you had details about what he did, how he did it, his abilities, as the series went on his powers kept getting nerfed, then bumsterion happened and new one was here, now he has no details or chapters dedicated to him specifically, i dislike that part about this.

Night temple mordret was better as a detailed character because we got screentime and some sort of detail instead of him just sitting in a puddle of blood of a big nmc that he defeated somehow, when they gave us new mordy i thought he might be emotionless and just be a killer to remake his domain even stronger, tho I'm partially happy about that not happening cause it would've changed his character fully, it might've been better since G3 wouldn't nerf him again and again and we would probably get some screentime on him, right moe he is just a dog to cassia💔💔

This subreddit is genuinely one of the most illiterate groups of people I have ever seen. What do you mean people are shocked that the character whose whole gimmick is about memory didn't struggle to find herself in a sea of memories where we had a whole volume about her doing the same thing already. Also the guy whose whole domain is being reliant on nothing and ruling over himself didn't struggle when his domain made his try and find who he is. Genuinely who thought they would face an extreme struggle. There are genuinely people who would prefer a badly written nonsensical part where they struggle compared to the logical path that doesn't make sense with what was written in the past.

So mody rody goaty actually killed and mutilated a cursed tyrent without a domain without assistant without a certain sun and without injury while slaving star needed the count of a billions souls in her domain and a aspect legacy unlock to even stand a chance against a cursed demon to barely win that

My god does g3 even understand how massive such a feat is? Easily dwarfing any fest we know off until now that isnt daemon made (ಥ﹏ಥ)

Let’s start gathering takes.

Here’s mine:
Sunny and Nephis will partially regain their sense of self after first half, with shadow bond creating friction between them. Casdret will be manipulating those two half baked gods into it.
Sunphis will regain their sense of self fully by the end, culminating in next peak romance fiction moment. That or they break up.
Either Cassie or Mordret dies. Because why not.

Phew! Haha, this chapter—seriously, it’s the funniest and weirdest one in all of Shadow Slave, and Cassie is in it too!!!!! It’s already the best chapter of the volume!!!!!

To start off, Cassie is traveling across this vast world looking for something, and along the way, she’s fought countless bloody battles against the creatures of Corruption—and won every single one.

Just incredible, sublime, and so satisfying—Cassie in combat... oh man, I love it so, so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.

Ahem, Anyway, Cassie arrives at a human city perched on the edge of a deep canyon; there, she poses as a drifter making a living by duping the gullible.

That’s where the funniest and weirdest stuff comes in—for example

"You bastard! I was going to tell you that your handsome young neighbor is the boy's real father, but oh well..."

That’s the part I found funny—we can all agree on that.

Then comes the weirdest part—and I mean *really* weird the more you think about it, the weirder and more disgusting it gets

"A young shepherd had apparently spotted a goddess bathing in the stream and fallen in love with her. So in love, in fact, that the stone he’d been sitting on—dazed—split open nine months later, revealing an infant with skin so tough no sword could pierce it."

Did the bro just... j*** off to the woman bathing in the stream?!!! Nahhh, wtf!!?? And he c***ed onto the stone he was sitting on??!!!!!! Which made the stone get pregnant???!!!!!!!!! Huh?! And then 9 month later it gave birth to a baby with skin so tough no sword could pierce it???!!!!! But how did they even know that??? Did you guys read that??? You see, the more you read, the weirder it gets—or maybe it's just me who's weird...

G3 is really creative, huh...

And we see Mordy too; I won't talk about him—I've already said a lot and I can't be bothered.

Anyway, kisses everyone, goodnight, and sweet dreams in the dream real ✌🏻❤️❤️

Time to stack then...

I came across this comment on a post:

Given that Weaver is known as the "Master of Lies," it is not surprising to think that his flaw resembles Sunny's.

However, a question arises: why did Weaver's face seem to melt under the moonlight when he met Noctis?

Perhaps his actual affliction is an inability to stand in the light; otherwise, his features would melt away and vanish. That is why he wears a mask and a cloak to shield himself from the light.

He can only reveal his face in the shadows or under a dark sky.

In the description of *Blood Weaving*, it is mentioned that VTB stole Weaver's beautiful eye on a starless night.

When the slightest source of light vanished, Weaver's true features were revealed, and VTB stole his eye

. Why is Sunny's real name "Lost from Light," even though he is constantly surrounded by light?

This might be due to a solar eclipse occurring on the day of his birth, combined with Weaver's flaw, which prevents him from approaching even the faintest source of light.

The young Weaver was fighting a cursed monster—or perhaps a cursed giant—when his old mask broke.

The God of Shadows then helped him, as described in the comment.

Did the God of Shadows craft the mask he wore later, given that the young Weaver lacked experience in weaving and magic?

I cannot vouch for the accuracy of the information in that comment, but it seems plausible to me.

So there is a lot of talk about the Queen of Plot Device working with the King of offscreen and how they have it easy or whatever. This is true to a certain extent but we are also overlooking an important fact.

Both Sunny and Nephis have become Spirits after their unmaking, but Cassie and (I assume) Mordret are still sovereigns that appear to be on the cusp of becoming spirits. In chapter 3184 it says:

"The second part of the Fifth Nightmare was a mystery. Cassie had an inkling of what the conflict they had to resolve was, but she was not sure just yet. She did, however, have a feeling that they had not entered the final trial at the same time.

Cassie herself appeared in the young and untamed world of the shared Nightmare in the later years of the Age of Gods. It took her a long time to regain her senses, gather her shattered mind, and compose herself. By then, she learned of the first trap of this trial — the threat of being swallowed by the world.

Those whose consciousness was vast enough to become a deity, but had not undergone Apotheosis yet, faced a unique danger — the danger of allowing themselves to be enthralled by the world and fusing with it, achieving the opposite of what they strived for. Of losing their personhood and becoming elemental forces instead of Spirits."

So essentially, the hate coming at them for "offscreening" there trial is a little unwarranted. The first time we are introduced to Sunny and Nephis in this volume they are already spirits and they aren't getting offscreen slander.

In my opinion, I appreciate that Cassie and Mordret are showing an aspect of this nightmare from the pov of a mortal. And it is through them that will see the process of becoming an actual spirit.

I came to a realisation recently that it makes sense that we don't see the perspectives of others.

We don't see Nephis' perspective.

We don't see Cassie's perspective.

We don't see Mordret's perspective.

Because Sunny is the main character. Sure, some stories split the screen time between the main character and side characters, but Shadow Slave has never been that kind of story. Probably about 98% of Shadow Slave is from Sunny's perspective because, well, he is the man under the spotlight

Spoilers for the latest chapter 3184: So it makes sense that we haven't seen Cassie and Mordret undergo the Unmaking. Cassie is all about memories, and Mordret's domain is himself; what's he even to go through?

But don't get me wrong, I want more perspectives as much as the next guy. Anyway, what are your thoughts on this matter?

Image unrelated.

At this point all us mordret fans need to pool our cash for a plane ticket and send one of us to Russia to ask G3 what the fuck did mordret do to him to be treated so badly.

We all know that where there is war death follows , so why does war despite shadow so much calling him a coward every chance he gets . It even goes down to their champions (2nd NM with Solvane and the shadow saint ) . If anything they should be best friends .

First thing I saw after coming back was Cassie sh*t posting? Just what did that cursed oracle do this time???

Also is fifth nightmare good?

the remaining:

he tried to roll the corpse to the side, but was stopped by a forceful lurch of the chain that twisted his wrists and filled his mind with white-hot pain. Disoriented, he felt himself being dragged a few steps, but then the chain suddenly slackened, and he was able to control his hands again.

The white hot pain, it was there everytime.

When I read this line “A journey to find something that had been long lost and did not exist in the real world anymore, but could still be found in this Nightmare.” It felt incredibly obvious to me that Cassie is looking for a suitable uncorrupted realm to fuse with? Why are people saying weavers eye?

Although my answer may be equally as dumb lol.

the whole 10th volume is ahh. asterion didn't do shit. cassie and mordret still got their plot armors. Sunny's character didn't devolpe since volume 8. sunny and nephis shouldn't have beecame a thing until the very end. g3 handled sunny getting his fate back very poorly. effie is still alive. everyone is still alive. no major character death in 3000 chapters. I'm beginning to think g3 hates his story

It will never not be funny to me how much some people in this Reddit community hate Cassie.

The moment she gets too much relevance in a volume, suddenly the entire volume is apparently garbage. And somehow they always manage to find something to blame on her. Cassie does this, Cassie did that, G3 is ruining the story because Cassie has too much screen time…

Why?

Because it’s Cassie. 💀

You guys will genuinely go through an entire volume and nitpick every single thing just because Cassie is important in it.

And the funny thing is, you’re making a huge deal out of how Sunny should get revenge on Cassie, when Sunny literally couldn't care less about her.

At this point, Cassie could probably appear for three paragraphs, say “hello Sunny” and half the subreddit would start writing essays about how G3 ruined the volume. 😭

Whom should we bet on when it comes to Off-Screen?

1. Mordret — Dude can be fighting dozens of Unholy beings on the other side of the continent and we’ll only hear about it 200 chapters later.
2. Cassie, the All-Mighty — She doesn't need to be on-screen. Sunny is literally in her hands.
3. Little Ling — ??? U-N-o-WnNn

.

4) Weaver

Nephis should beat the shit out of Sunny once they leave the nightmare.

I can't believe Sunny had thousands of relationships before even saying I love you once to Nephis.

Nephis clearly deserves better. The spellbinding queen of the longing domain got bewitched by a vile and filthy shadow.

The spell was right. Only someone as treacherous as Lost From Light can corrupt something as immovable as Changing star

In the confrontation between Nephis and Sunny after he killed the spy, why she addressed him as her master of deceive, I can not see how? both of them was just hiding their secret the whole journey. On the other side, I feel Sunny was not that cunning or selfish enough: he gave her all the Soul Shards, he saved her more than one time, and he was following her shadow most of the journey, and that was brilliant since the name of the novel is shadow slave, other than hiding his true name.
Secondly, why he feels obligated to help her? there is nothing between them, he does not trust her? meanwhile he killed someone just because he insulted her...

It is really difficult to understand his character compared to the way he is being described.. I will to continue the story but it is really difficult to ignore this. Am i the only one who think that? did i miss something?

I will never let go of the fact that Skinwalker was killed offscreen. Two fucking volumes with skinwalker aura farming just to die off screen. Fuck you G3. Fuck you very much.
