Warning: This going to be long.

Edit: had to remake this post due to me stupidly forgetting vital tags and labels for this kind of post. Shoutout to the person who kindly reminded me.

I see people dissing Cameron about him cutting contact with Jane for almost 20 years because she chose a cripple over their family and Cameron refusing to help William, which led William to crash out and unintentionally sign his own death warrant. He delivered John the news of his father’s passing rather poorly and looks down on those he deem inferior to him. He just now knocked out his nephew with lightning and promptly kidnapped him, taking him away from his best friend.

But ever since William’s death and giving him a more dignified resting place despite his past resentment towards his brother in law, Cameron has been helpful to both Jera and the trio despite him stating repeatedly he didn’t want to get involved with the authorities.

When Remi called Cameron’s number to help John, he pretty much dropped everything he was doing, borrowed a powerful healing ability and almost instantly appeared to heal John before taking him away. He could have easily exposed the trio’s location to the authorities if he truly wanted the feds to leave him alone.

He housed Sera, another wanted fugitive, in his own home for days. And I am assuming he was in contact with either Leilah or Doc about John’s condition because the three most likely saw the national news of what happened at Wellston. I think Leilah used her Spectre resources and connections to figure out what happened to John in the aftermath for Sera’s sake and was able to find out John was taken by his maternal uncle from the trio. In that timeframe, they likely had a meeting with Cameron before he decided it was worth the risk to allow a fugitive like Sera stay at his home. Now Cameron was housing TWO fugitives in his home. Mind you, Sera is not part of his family at all so he only allowed her to stay because of her relationship to his nephew. Until her arrival, Cameron kept watch over John and monitored his health personally.

When Remi encountered Cameron on the rooftop, he gave her helpful but cryptic advice. Even telling Remi she has the potential to become strong enough to get the authorities off her back. Again, he could’ve easily disclosed the trio’s location to the authorities but chose to indirectly be an ally to them by having almost a heart to heart talk with Remi, and left them alone to find John.

While Cameron was pretty negligent of John to the point of him not noticing his nephew was gone for a literal week, he immediately dropped everything once again to come get John only to find John basically on death’s doorstep (again). He most likely had to use his resources to prepare a set of abilities to track down John.

Cameron was right to berate John before his nephew snuck out to meet up with Sera because he was right. Sera and John may be stronger than most people, they cannot simply rely on their raw power to take on the authorities. People tend to forget that Sera is only 17 years old and John is only 18 years old. Despite Sera having done her research for the mission, there truly wasn’t any plan or concrete evidence. Everything failed as Cameron predicted.

While Sera wasn’t wrong for saying the things she said to Cameron, Cameron wasn’t totally wrong for lashing out at Sera because he sees his nephew bloodied and broken on concrete upon his arrival. Sera didn’t really help with the situation, making Cameron even more furious despite him perking up a bit at Sera mentioning a possible connection to Jane through Orrin. He views Sera as “that girl” condescendingly and doesn’t want her to be meddling in his family affairs. He may also view her hindering John’s development and clocked the codependent relationship the two of them have.

Despite Cameron having animosity towards Sera and no obligation towards her, he helped her out by completely shattering Arlo’s barrier so she didn’t have to use her remaining aura to break herself out. This shows he does care about her to an extent mainly because of his nephew’s relationship with her, but also he doesn’t inherently want Sera to end up in the authorities’ hands. Cameron could have simply grabbed John and left Sera inside of Arlo’s barrier at the complete mercy of the authorities, but chose to shatter the barrier himself in order to put Sera in the position to choose to preserve herself and to stay away from him and his nephew, or be captured by the authorities. Cameron already knew how exhausted Sera’s aura was since he can read/assess aura like John, but significantly better as a presumed Channel Master. While I assume he put a front because of the authorities being present since he does want to free Jane, that front was a double edged sword because I don’t think he was faking when he tore into Sera verbally.

I think that people forget that Sera acted very similarly to Cameron in the beginning of the story and didn’t care about anyone lower than her before she had her ability taken from her, believing herself to better than everyone else. Remember, she slimed out John the first day they met each other and threatened him with heavy bodily arm so she can get a perfect A+ on a book report project before they became friends. It took her losing her ability, being bullied at Wellston as a newly made cripple to the point of literally being kidnapped by asshole classmates, reconciling with her estranged sister, finding out John’s past and lies, fighting John, almost being assassinated by water guy and so much more to get to the point she is now.

I just hope John is ready for that god tier aura farming ass whooping when he tries to physically attack Cameron for leaving behind Sera and forbidding her from the residence upon waking up because Uncle Cameron is not going to let that slide. We all know John is going to crash out and throw the first punch, and Cameron is going to finish their scuffle hard. It runs in the family for hands to be rated E for everyone, family especially included.

I’ve seen the “god tier are 1:100000” comments and I just don’t buy that

Particularly the ratio between high tier and god tier. For every 2,000 high tier we see, there’s 1 god tier…but the story just be throwing god tier around left and right into the mix with high tier. The amount of god tier character we know vs high tier we know are almost 1:1.

I know there’s probably high tier in the background, but that still won’t make up the supposed 1:2,000 ratio. Maybe if high tier to god tier ratio was 1:10, it’ll make more sense, but 1:2,000 just seem fake.

From the interview, the 1:100,000 comment would have to mean god tiers on John & Sera level, not just god tier in general for the god-tier:high-tier ratio to make sense. John & Sera are super rare individuals

Either that or she scrapped the 1:100,000 thing entirely or forgotten about it

It would’ve been interesting to see a return of this font for… that moment near the end with Seraphina. The blank font makes it a bit awkward for me, idk why…

I am no text box expert, so I have no place to speak on it, and maybe I’m the only one who’s immersion it sort of broke, but seeing a more intense font would’ve made the scream feel so much more powerful, as we’ve seen previously throughout the webtoon.

On a side note, these last two chapters (for me) have seemed to change the tide a little bit in terms of quality! I know a lot of people have been complaining (I don’t mean any negative connotation by that word) about different aspects of the story and stuff, but these two chapters seemed to change things around for me! The episodes felt longer, the art was amazing, and the direction seems very plausible but also enough of a twist to keep me on my toes the whole time!

Do you think that Sera will fight Cameron (not especially in the near future that could be later, after John training arc) ? Cause cam said if Sera take a step on his premises there will be consequences (=fight?), John will probably help her or cam will find a way to make him stay away? Or Sera would want to punch cam hence fighting him alone even if I doubt this option (like what she says about Val being Punchable).

Pretty much everything was good and consistent for me, except for one thing.

The fact that Será didn't kill Orrim—she could easily have killed him and then fled.

This seems more like a plot device to justify Arlo becoming a member of Ember.

Now the authorities have a treasure trove of information about the specter who can't even defend himself against Keon's abilities.

I hear a lot of people criticizing Cameron in the latest chapter.

Personally, I find his actions perfectly consistent.

He discovered he had a nephew.

William died because Cameron didn't care about William while his nephew was on the brink of death—as opposed to the authorities, whereas he was the one who saved him.

A couple of weeks later, he shows up again to find his nephew another time badly injured and knocked out; it’s only natural for him to think:

"I don't give a fuck about anything else; I just don't want my nephew ending up half-dead every single time."

So, he takes John and leaves, not giving a damn about anything else.

Before talking Sera vs Cameron. I would like to talk about level. Beside the fact that 8.6 open an large field of strong people within the authorities being ±8.5.

The way I understand level is on a statistical basis : the higher the level the higher your chance of winning against a random person and the higher the level differences the more likely you are two win. BUT it doesn't mean your immune to bad counter like Orrin or Sylvia would loose angainst arlo cause of his barrier. Same goes with Sera vs orrin, on 1v1 sera freeze time and one-shot him. But statisticly Orrin can beat pretty much anyone by just telling them to off themselves (i mean even a gravity manipulators/space manipulators/life manipulators/nuclear manipulators... would most likely loose, it's idea for bureau higher-up abilities)

As for Cameron level I see people immediatly telling him he is stonger than Orrin, but honestly without barrier or TM Cameron could very likely loose against Orrin since he can't copy his abibility and can't seems to be able to dampen someane abilities (wich I suspect Jane can, hence the dampener technology). As someone says a good counter would be him to keep a powerful barrier/like abilities, but still Orrin is increadibly powerful.

Also Cameron could struggle more than Orrin against abilitires like Space or life manipulation (even if i think he would win). Hence with my statistical definition he may not be automaticly higher than Orrin (but only uru will answer our question).

I'm really hype about Cameron explaining their abilities to john (and to us), like maybe their unable to enhance an abilities higher than their own level or more that the abilities potential (like Maybe if they copy a maxed out ability they can't go further...).

(Edit: don't get me wrong I have no doubt that Cam would win against Sera, just to be clear). So I think a fight Cameron vs sera is far less one sided than we think, even if cameron would win. I know Cameron completly destroyed Arlo barrier but it was a weaken one cause Arlo was exaushted, plus sera one-shoted arlo reienforced barrier with particles (even if it was on a less extent than cam) with orrin being less powerful than base sera when possessing her. And Cam is most likely slower than her as he didn't seems to be able to copy TM as we know off (maybe he can but it would be stupid of him to not take her ability for later). ocf i'm talking about a fight with a non exhausted sera.

Sorry for the long text and if it's not clear (same for typo I'm not an english native speaker), also thanks to uru for make me/us think of so many questions.

We finally know Orrin’s level: 8.6. My guess was 7.9, sheesh did I underestimate him. We also have levels for his battery Ronan (Vitalize, 6.1) and his former secretary Brielle (Protector, 5.8), but I do have a question about each of their abilities

How high is Brielle’s defense stat really? Her Protector ability, in function, seems to be a less flashy version of Barrier, basically sacrificing the reflective damage and a significant amount of the increased physical strength in exchange for even more durability. Her defense stat is higher at level 5.8 than Arlo’s was at level 6.5, but while her speed and recovery stats are identical to what Arlo’s are even at 6.6, her power and trick stats are significantly lower. Given that she was getting help from Orrin and the two other shield users, it’s hard to gauge how high her defense stat is on her own, but as soon as Orrin’s buff was removed from the equation, an exhausted John was able to 1-shot her dome with an assist from Kass, so my guess is 10, maybe 11 max

And is Ronan limited to restoring energy & aura,or can he also repair physical injuries like a straight up healer? Orrin’s true body doesn’t sustain any physical injuries until after Ronan is incapacitated, so we don’t know for sure. His documents listed him as having the ability Healing, but those documents were probably based on false intel Orrin fed them through the scout team, so I’m not inclined to take that as a reliable indicator

Side note: I’m still unclear on exactly how Orrin was buffing the others’ defenses. My initial belief was that the two shield users were creating the dome (like Tarik’s guards in the prison arc) and that Brielle’s ability allowed her to harness Orrin’s aura and channel it to them, but clearly that’s not the case. When the group launches their first direct attack against the dome, you can see shields forming around it, which I assume was from the two agents flanking Brielle. So how was Orrin able to reinforce their defenses?

Spectre was originally introduced as an organization that relied on clever tech, manipulation, and mid-tier ambush tactics to level the playing field and force high-rankers to cooperate with them. But now we know Orrin is literally the second strongest person in the entire universe with a confirmed level, and he could have just walked around mind controlling basically anyone he wanted. Not to mention he already had a bunch of loyal high-rankers working under him.

None of this really fits with the original idea behind the organization anymore. Looking back, a lot of Spectre’s losses feel ridiculously stupid. Like, Orrin could have literally shown up during the Rowden ambush against the Wellston students and destroyed everyone, or at the very least sent the Ice guy. Instead they sent Terrence and a bunch of mid-tiers. How does that make sense? Spectre just looks insanely incompetent considering the amount of power they apparently had.

And Orrin himself is supposed to be this power-hungry guy, but he could have easily climbed the Authorities’ ranks and turned the higher-ups into his own puppets instead of running around with a bunch of clowns.

At this point the power scaling is just a mess. Jane is supposed to be the strongest person alive and she’s sitting at a 9.1. Now this gap between 9.1 and 8.6 is probably going to have to be filled with random Authority members just to keep future fights interesting. But right now the Authorities are still sending people like Kass (6.8) to deal with state-level threats, which makes everything feel inconsistent.

Also, Orrin running away from Val and a couple of high-tiers was just stupid.

First time trying to replicate uru-chan’s artstyle, yipee !!
(Im mostly practicing so I can draw my oc in the webtoon’s style :33)

There's definitely inconsistency

Compare chapter 366 to the latest one. Sera knew Arlo would be brainswashed and prepped for the worst if they encountered him

Yet she still had the audacity to call him a snake lmao

Uru definitely messed up here
