I wish Simon would be more careful with himself. He’s cut so many reigns short because he wants to personally deal with an issue instead of letting it play out and slowly gaining power. The Season of the Minotaur should be the rule, not the exception. Honestly, by now he should have figured out a way to live past the second Doom and grind levels by conquering/ruling/existing in the decades to follow, rather than dying within a year over and over again. He’s abusing the time loop restart mechanic too much, and not taking advantage of the fact that there’s no actual deadline. So what if the world burns and all his loved ones die for a bit? Travel to the west and live there for a decade or seven. Like, he has over eighty remaining reigns, and could easily spend over half a millennium in them. Instead, I doubt he will be fifty years old (subjectively) before the final reign. He’s fantastically suicidal for someone who, uh, grew up mortal, and it’s making my brain itch at the inefficiency. He seems to think that succeeding in the side quest he sets at the beginning of a reign is adequate for the reign’s conclusion, when he could be spending DECADES beyond that tiny mission learning magic, statecraft, strategy, and economics. And yet he wants to raid a base full of people who can probably match him because “I don’t know, it’ll be amusing to have some cobweb minions be dead for the thirty minutes until the reign ends, because they were dicks to me a few times”. Like, come on, man. Would it kill you to be even a little bit paranoid? Just, just a quarter as paranoid as a normal person? Play like ever reigns your last, please! You’ll grow so much.

2026-02-17 23:49:32 +0000 UTCFist Simon needs to get ahold of the Mage crestone. Remedia may be killed first
Myrdin
2026-02-17 22:43:49 +0000 UTCYes he's a visionary, and yes it is from the Librarian.

2026-02-17 20:32:24 +0000 UTCDo it my boy, help her with her issues. Give her House Magnos blood.

2026-02-17 20:09:32 +0000 UTCDoes Simon have visionary blood due to the Librarian ancestor? He’s a visionary right? Because Norbelle is a visionary thanks to her mother who isn’t a Magnos.

Ty Reol
2026-02-17 18:17:56 +0000 UTCI think this is going to end with Simon getting killed by the Rogue
Zahir Nahasamapetial
2026-02-17 17:00:34 +0000 UTCShe might be more focused on ensuring Louis loses right now

2026-02-17 16:49:45 +0000 UTCWouldn't the Oracle check the overlords kids right off the bat for Anathemic Secrecy if its that easy to confirm. Doesn't seem possible to hide it 🤔
Messe
2026-02-17 16:43:57 +0000 UTCNow what on earth that idea could be? Wink-wink, nudge-nudge.
Publius Decius Mus
2026-02-17 16:33:37 +0000 UTCTrustworthy might be stretching it but everything else is a go!
Messe
2026-02-17 16:29:59 +0000 UTCSimon told the complete truth - Alphonse’s uncle was his stepfather, who was killed alongside Simon’s mom.
Daedalus
2026-02-17 16:16:00 +0000 UTCWait I'm confused. Last chapter he convinced the Palidin they were family lying that his Uncle was his father. So why would Remedia still think he's the Overlord's son unless I'm missing something.

2026-02-17 16:12:02 +0000 UTCI am glad Simon is trying to protect Lauriane

Davan Krueger
2026-02-17 15:16:21 +0000 UTCHe should spend a reign killing all mountain lions
Davan Krueger
2026-02-17 15:12:02 +0000 UTCMalphas doesn’t have a way to contact the Oracle. It was stated that the crystal ball that he has is a one way communication.
Myrdin
2026-02-17 15:11:37 +0000 UTCWe don’t really know of the power of being a darkblood though. And the combination may result in something better
Myrdin
2026-02-17 15:08:40 +0000 UTCOh Remedia, I think there’s a few…. ‘houses’ that could guess your idea.

2026-02-17 15:00:49 +0000 UTCIf it is stupid and let's Simon gain the cougar hunter title, then it is not stupid.
gostsamo
2026-02-17 14:58:21 +0000 UTCThis sounds like a very smart idea, though...
ConstanTeen
2026-02-17 14:55:58 +0000 UTCedited thanks :)
Void Herald
2026-02-17 14:54:44 +0000 UTCYeap. Definitely. There's no way to "Fix" the issue at all.
NeoUsui
2026-02-17 14:54:06 +0000 UTCIt feels like he's undermining the Oracle by straight up replacing her. It only makes me want a Oracle reign even more.
Andrew Goebel
2026-02-17 14:51:58 +0000 UTCSo far, I can see alot of benifit to being a Visionary. Being a darkblood seems to also have benefits, but it seems to have much more tame abilities when compared to Binding eidolons, or seeing the future.
Diego Urbina
2026-02-17 14:50:02 +0000 UTCA stupid idea you say? 😏
Fog Witch, Bringer of Rats
2026-02-17 14:47:58 +0000 UTCSimon trying his best to keep his interest on Remedia at bay, while Remedia is barely holding back her desire to have an affair with Simon. Seriously, Simon probably ticked a lot of Remedia boxes. Handsome, trustworthy, scholarly, special bloodline, and knows a lot of deep dark secrets. No wonder Filip is trying so hard to kill him. And I won't be surprised if this reign end because of Filip and in all future reigns, Simon will not hesitate to cuck him as revenge.

2026-02-17 14:41:03 +0000 UTCSimon is slowly reeling her in lmfao! I’m genuinely enjoying this reign, it’s prob my favorite so far. It’s always nice seeing Simon trying to do the right thing but having to disguise it with ‘bad intentions’
ThwartedHalo
2026-02-17 14:37:50 +0000 UTCWell there is a way to fix the issue of her child not having the blood of house Magnos

Void Herald
2026-02-17 14:36:08 +0000 UTCAlso "stone" -> "stolen".

2026-02-17 14:35:33 +0000 UTCSmoooooth operator over here, pretending he doesn't know what he just suggested.
Matthew Wilmsmeyer
2026-02-17 14:35:19 +0000 UTCOH NO! She's working out how to get her very own visionary/dark blood descendant. MILF Reign is back baby!
Andrew Goebel
2026-02-17 14:34:18 +0000 UTCThanks and I found a typo: "Books on seals, archfiends, and the Kish Empire were stone." -> "Books on seals, archfiends, and the Kish Empire were stolen."

2026-02-17 14:26:52 +0000 UTCI have question. How do you pronounce cocagne because for me it's always Cocaine? Cossain?
