>He could have earned a small fortune by killing them AND then bringing up the corpses

See, you are the ones thinking with an evil purpose. You want him to kill them for personal gain. But he's not interested in that. He killed them for justice, for the sake of everyone else.
His methods may be a bit extreme, but he's working for the greater good.

>>154771291
>Evil purpose

Theres nothing evil about killing a criminal and making a buck while getting him resurrecred and jailed. Criminal gets a sentence based on the law and I make money which is a morally good option compared to "Criminal has to haunt and kill other adventurers for a small eternity"

There is no justice in his actions, hes a vigilante at best.

>>154771291
>but he's working for the greater good
He should also learn to fight monsters so he can be more of a benefit to actually completing the dungeon. I think the main reason why I don't like Kabru is that for all his bravado he's still dying some really dumb deaths in this dungeon. And his party is so enamored with him they only think along his lines and not for himself. No way he'll ever actually complete it, he should just go to the governor and request to become some police force within the dungeon or go full bounty hunter.

Even Laius' group is more individually capable than Kabru's. It's basically Kabru, the Kobold, and the mage who are carrying that team, the rest are dead weight.

>>154771101
it's not kidnapping if you release them afterwards. It's not assault if you bring them to the ER afterwards.
>and that is how the victim was beaten up. Does the defense have anything to say?

>>154771381
you think making money by killing people is morally justified. Your sense of morality is messed up.
Kabru didn't kill them because he wanted to, but because he had to.
>>154771401
heh, fair enough. You should judge one's action for wht they are though, not by other actions of that same person.

>>154771476
Not that guy and I am a bit on the fence about it.
Murder is about ending a life, not about temporarily halting it - at least in our world.
I am not sure how a fictional world would define it. I remember Altered Carbon specifically differentiated between murder and REAL murder.

>>154771522
>you think making money by killing people is morally justified.
What else do you think a sold is?

>>154771522
>You should judge one's action for wht they are though
I don't like his actions though, or rather I don't like just dumping the bodies. Up until that point I was cool, but then he dumps the corpses and loots the bodies and I stop rooting for him.

His group's general uselessness just was the icing on the cake.

>>154771476
Murder is about ending ones life, ergo the charges shouldnt be murder if you resurrect him. He should be punished but charges should be something akin to voluntary manslaughter.

>>154771522
Making money from killing people is morally justified, thats why soldiers and such exist. Kabru didnt even had to kill them, at least permamently.

And like I said, killing a criminal,resurrecting him isnt something bad. Its a move where no one loses, everyone gains something: society deals with a criminal, criminal lives his sentence in a prison instead of rotting in a ditch and the 3rd party gets cash

>>154771381
>hes a vigilante at best.

eh, true, but then again, it's depend on whether the instrument of law in that particular region could be trusted.

So far we got the wealth loving governor where he is not evil but also not quite shown to be close to capable.

While Kabru should've give a chance for the law deal with them first, but if that fails, vigilante route it is.

>>154771696
soldiers don't exist to kill people, they exist to defend the interest of their nation. Killing people ione of the main ways they do it, but they are aid the same regardless of how many people they kill if any.

>>154771696
>>154771549
he doesn't temporarily halt their life. he doesn't place in suspended anymation or somethign of the sort. He actually kills them. Then he uses means to revert that action, but the murder has already happened. How it's considered from a legal point of view depends heavily on the eexact wording of the law. I doubt real world laws make provisions for resurrection.

>>154772013
>he doesn't place in suspended anymation or somethign of the sort.
In the real world, life is a process. While the brain is working, you are alive. When the brain stops working, the process called life is no more.
Killing somebody and bringing them back to the exact same state as before would count as temporarily halting their lives.

>I doubt real world laws make provisions for resurrection.
For a simple reason:
Resurrection is not real.

>>154772013
>soldiers don't exist to kill people, they exist to defend the interest of their nation.
And disposing of criminals is in the interest of the nation.

>>154772013
>Soldiers dont exist to kill people
Maybe in a peaceful western nation anon, for a good part of history and most of the nations soldiers do exist for killing. Its their original purpose, to loot and pillage.

Its just that war isnt as profitable as it used to be

>>154772140
???
disposing of criminals is what kabru did. He didn't kill them to get money for himself, he did it for the interest of everyone.

>>154772108
no, it counts as killing them and then resurrecting them.
>resurrection is not real.
you're missing the point. I was replying to a post that said killing and resurrecting would not bring a sentence of murder in our world but of something like manslaughter. I said that it depends on how the law is worded exactly.

>>154772108
What you are forgetting is that while the body is dead, the soul lingers on. And the soul is conscious to a degree so the person killed in the dungeon is not in stasis, they are now in another state of being that is being tormented because it is chained to their rotting corpse.

Suspended animation as you are trying to compare it to how death works in this series, would require for all consciousness, spiritual and physical, to be halted for it to count. As it is, people still die and there is just the caveat that if you find enough of them you can heal the damage and bring them back.

They still died though. And what Kabru did was murder since the remaining deaths happened outside the window actions that could be considered self defense.

>>154772253
So it's a Jail for lifetime sentence.

>>154772250
>disposing of criminals is what kabru did.
So what's wrong with getting paid for it?

>it counts as killing them and then resurrecting them.
Not mutually exclusive.

>you're missing the point.
No, you are. You are bringing up real world laws to discuss a matter with completely different circumstances.

>>154772243
not quite. Killing was just the wasiest way to defeat an eemy. If they could capture them alive, maybe to sell them as slaves they were more than happy to do it. The act of killing itself was not what they existed for. Killing is the means by which they accomplish it.

>>154772253
>the soul lingers on.
So that would make it even less of a murder and more of a (potentially temporary) disembodiment.

>Suspended animation as you are trying to compare it to how death works in this series
I wasn't comparing it to the series though. I specifically opened up with "[i]n the real world".

>>154772338
you are confusing being part of an organization and being paid to enforce the peace even if it means killing someone and getting money from the act of killing itself, killing specifically in order to get money from it.

>>154772253
>>154772278
this would create some interesting scenarios where you can be condemned for multiple murders all for killing the same person multiple times.

>>154772398
>Killing was a main way to accomplish an objective
Ergo they were paid to kill, they were paid to do a thing for their employer which was killing.

The killing itself wasnt the goal but the means of attaining it which means they were paid to use the main way of achieving a goal

>>154772278
It's a prison in the magical sense yes. But I wouldnt characterize it as the kind of jail you use to shunt people like the the ressurection group into. This is a prison that has no sense of justice, everyone who dies inside the dungeon, or with a piece of the dungeon with them is bound to their mortal vessel. They will suffer no matter if they were just some noble minded adventurer, or some thieves on the run from the law.

Even the citizens of this kingdom are bound to the dungeon.

>>154772425
>So that would make it even less of a murder
If I kill someone by drowning them, then someone else comes along and performs CPR and they are revived did I kill anyone? Yes.
Just because you have the ability to bring someone back from the dead doesn't invalidate the actions that led to their deaths or the intent of the murderer.

>I wasn't comparing it to the series though
What you are trying to do is word the process of "temporarily halting" someones life to being the same as what heppens in the series correct? That sounds like you are saying that just because someone can turn the life switch "off" and later turn it back "on" with no gap in that person's consciousness that killing them isn't the same as murder.

I disagree and what you are describing is more akin to suspended animation than what really happens when a person's life functions cease and are later (and more quickly given how fast cells start to die in humans) resuscitated.

>>154772504
no, they were paid to fight a battle. If they could win it without killing a single person they would have the same pay. In fact it was more advantageous for them to capture rather than kill because they could sell them as slaves and earn more money. They are not paid by the kill.

Like making your paycheck with bounties.
Those are a real thing.
Sure the pay-out is slightly different in that you earn your money by taking the criminal down, while the discussed method is about earning the money by raising them again.
But raising people is not an inherently immoral act, so I don't see the problem.

If anything, they could get sued for killing them in the first place, but that doesn't seem to be your problem.

>>154772488
>scenarios where you can be condemned for multiple murders all for killing the same person multiple times.

Considering the calmness of the resurrector party doing their shit, good chances are he done kill by proxy for profit before.

If he go to somesort of court, he could be sentenced for killing several party over and over again, while charging them for resurrection.

A resurrection scam, but since the victim could be very much could be alive. Is it murder?

>>154772630
>They were paid to fight
So you admit that they were paid to kill? Soldiers try to be lethal as possible for a reason, to kill the bugger in front of them. Winning a battle is killing much as you can.

>theyre not paid by the kill
not true, in many societies soldiers advanced through ranks by having merit in a battle. Most common example are the romans

>>154772598
>If I kill someone by drowning them,
Not the point.
If you kill somebody and they're gone, that's different from when you kill somebody and they linger on.
When you kill somebody and they might linger on but you make sure that their souls are doomed to suffer until the turn into vengeful spirits and they will never be raised again, that's total murder.

>What you are trying to do is word the process of "temporarily halting" someones life to being the same as what heppens in the series correct?
Wrong.

>That sounds like you are saying that just because someone [] turn[s] the life switch "off" and later turn[s] it back "on" with no gap in that person's consciousness
That counts as temporarily halting their lives.
>that killing them isn't the same as murder.
And that murder might need to be redefined in a universe where resurrection is so common that lots of people aren't scared of death at all.

>>154772778
Basically the difference is Concensus.

If community deemed group a to be killable, then is not considered crime to kill group a in that community.

>>154772685
bounties paid people for capturig people dead OR alive. And often paid more if you captured them alive. Again the point of them was not the killing but the removal of a threat from society.
And furthermore I don't see what point you're trying to make. I never said that killing for money doesn't exist, I said that it makes one evil.

>>154772890
>bounties paid people for capturig people dead OR alive.
So they did pay you for killing them.

Just because you could also become a carpenter and never pick up a weapon in your life does not the negate the existence of an option whereby you pick a career that offers you regular use of a weapon.

>I said that it makes one evil.

And it missed the point that I made.
But on your new topic, I would say that it's a weaker murder.
I think we should just make a hierarchy.

>you completely erase somebody's existence
Murder tier:
>you put somebody into limbo and leave it up to chance if a third party moves them on to the afterlife
>you send somebody directly to the afterlife, with no chance of returning to life
Highly immoral/attempted murder tier
>you put somebody into a post-death experience, and leave it up to chance if a third party returns them back to life or to the afterlife.

Satisfying, disappointing and horrifying at the same time.
Why this did not happen during shampoo time is still a mystery, though.

>>154772253
right or wrong, it could be said that what Cabron did was fair: he fought against the party that attempted to kill his own's, if he lost he would lose the remaining money (so, no rez money anymore).

It would be funny and/or dark if, on their way out and back again, they encountered the thieves' ghosts and got possessed (though this would probably mean that they don't get to meet Laius' party, which is more likely to happen, especially since the latter is also returning to the surface)

>>154774265
>because causing pain is not murder.
What an empty statement. I hope you are proud of yourself.
Causing people pain is, unlike death, not expected to be a lasting condition. Persistence of symptoms usually results in increased punishment. You can quite literally walk it off.
If you can walk off death, then it stands to reason that punishment for inflicting it is lowered.

>>154773130
if they don't, the elves will

>>154774404
don't decontextualize my statements. My comparison with inflicting pain was in response to a pot that said killing someone is not evi if you can resurrect them. So I used somethign that is much lighter than death, something that you can literally walk off but would still be considered evil in order to make it apparent why killing would still be an evil act even if you can resurrect them afterwards.
And this is without accounting for psychological damage and the risk that resurrection dosn't work.

>>154774550

>>154774658
>don't decontextualize my statements.
I didn't.

>My comparison with inflicting pain was in response to a pot
No, it was in response to >>154773623, which specifically asked why causing pain is not punished as severely as murder.

And causing pain is not always punished either. You are well in your right to cause pain in self-defense. Murder is defined as illegal. (Killing people is not, but that's a different story depending on local laws)
If you injure somebody while defending your life from him, and there is a law in your country that says that people have to pay a fee for being brought to the hospital, then it is not immoral to bring them to the hospital.

That is my post you are quoting and i still Define death as when your bodily functions ceases. what happens to the soul afterwards is a unique phenomenon but it does not absolve somebody from having died first.

While their actions are not just plain evil, they selfish and get in the way f what is considered the greater good, dispelling the curse of the dungeon.

And killing someone to later revive them and make them pay you is still pretty evil in itself, is the equivalent of beating someone up and then taking their money, just that in this world it's legal depending on how you do it.

On the other hand while Kabru's actions were worse in the sense that he really kill the corpse hunters, but his end goal was to stop a threat to the greater good.

Put in another way the methods of the corpse hunters were more on the moral side(but still evil) compared to Kabru's, but their end goal can be considered evil since it gets in the way of the greater good just of personal gain.
On the other side we have Kabru whose methods are more immoral but his end goal is still the greater good.

Now if we talk about killing as evil.
Well it depends.
If someone kills an innocent person just because of their personal gain, that's evil.

On the other side if someone kills, let's say, a serial killer, not in self-defense, but because the murderer knows that the serial killer will kill again.
On that light killing won't be considered evil yes?
It could even be considered good at best and morally ambiguous at worst

>>154774924
read the comment chain.
I first posted about pain in this post >>154773566
in reply to someone saying that murder wouldn't be evil with resurrection.
>>154774924
>You are well in your right to cause pain in self-defense
and you're in your right to kill in self defense to.And different types of murder are more or less harshly punished too.
For instance killing someone without intending to, killing someone intending to but on the spur of the moment, and killing someone after planning to carry different sentences, and the same goes for the motivation, killing someone because they raped and killed your elderly father is punished less harshly than killing someone because they beat you at a videogame.
So saying that murder with resurrection would be punished less harshly is fair, but it would still be murder.

>>154775173
i think it can be more aptly compared to breaking somebody's computer or car or any appliance, knowing that it can later be repaired. Especially since we know that sometimes resurrection can fail

>>154775194
>you're in your right to kill in self defense to.
That is really up to circumstance and local law. You shouldn't make a broad statement like that.
>For instance killing someone without intending to,
Is not murder.
>Murder is the unlawful killing of another human without justification or valid excuse, especially the unlawful killing of another human being with malice aforethought.
The malice aforethought is legally required, and only in the common usage of the word is it not a requirement.
>So saying that murder with resurrection would be punished less harshly is fair, but it would still be murder.
My argument is that we are basically lacking vocabulary.
All our terms in regards to death assume that death is final.
We have words like resurrection, but it's all about having your cake and eating it too.
Our language just like our legal system is inadequate for discussion a fictional universe where the afterlife has a revolving door.

>>154775341
Nah there's a difference between damage to a person and damage to property, since it has the trauma and damage to the psyche of the person into account as well.
Hell some legal cases are based solely on the "This person did something harmful to my mental state" premise.
You know, sticks and stones may break your bones, but words leave a psychological wounds that will linger for years.

>>154775545
I meant in how the fact that they can be revived influences how we judge the act of killing

That kind of art style can still be found nowdays.

>>154775398
>That is really up to circumstance and local law. You shouldn't make a broad statement like that
Laws don't create rights, they can simply state them.

>>154775616
Oh well, try to look at it this way.
Let's say that we have person A and person B.
A has a knife and stabs B.
Then A runs away leaving B bleeding.
On this kind of situation B will probably die and A is aware of this, however he can't b sure of that B could be saved by chance.

Now this kind of scenario is very similar to what we have here, if someone kills another person and leaves them there then it's up to chance if said person is revived or not.

Now that we have something to make a kind of comparation let's try to judge te case.

Is it murder?
Well person A didn't saw if person B died.
So from his perspective it's imposible at the moment.
It depends on whether person B was saved or not.
In other words who know?
Until there's proof of person's B state you can't count it or discount it as murder.

Is it moral?
Depends on the intent, if person A was doing it on self-defense then yes.
If A wanted o kill B in cold blood then it depends on the reason for this:

Was it out of anger and unjustified?
It's amoral then

Was it to prevent others from being harm?
Then it depends on the people involved.

If there's money involved it also revolves around the previous statements to an extent.

But you get the idea.
Even though it's murder, under the assmuption that people can be revived then it's more akin to fatally wound someone.
And if we talk about punishment, that depends on the intent and reason of the actions.

What the corpse hunters did was similar to A calling an ambulance for B.
What Kabrus did was like finishing B.

>>154776358
To be within one's rights means you are morally or legally entitled to do something.
As such, "That is really up to circumstance and local law." is a perfectly valid response.

>>154776429
>Now this kind of scenario is very similar to what we have here,
Except that the knife victim is also a subject to urgency. If he isn't saved before he bleeds out, he's gone.
Resurrection has a time limit too, but it's much more forgiving.
If it's a reasonably well frequented place and the corpses are in plain view, then the odds of no one turning up in time are practically nil.

>>154776467
The legality of an act is not always equal to the morality of an act.

>>154776689
You didn't notice the word "circumstance" even the second time you read the line?

>>154776467
Rights are absolute. If you believe that you have the right to defend yourself then that's that. If a law states otherwise, you don't loose that right, your rights are being oppressed.

>siting a turn of phrase
What?

>>154777013
Stay on topic.

>>154776688
Yeah but the point isn't in the probablity of the victim would be saved or not.
I didn't specify about how deep the wound was, how much time the victim had, or if the place in question was frequented by a lot of people or near a hospital.
My point was "you can't be completely sure if they will make it out of there alive or not.

The rest was to just judge the actions of the perpetrator based on the circumstances.
Or to question if it was murder or not.

>>154777278
>My point was "you can't be completely sure if they will make it out of there alive or not.
And you cannot be completely sure if the person who is crossing the road in front of your car won't stumble and fall right underneath your wheels.
There are certain chances life forces on you.
Some are bigger than others, admittedly. But that's precisely the thing.
If you can reasonably assume that somebody will find the corpse where you left it, you have lived up to your moral obligations.
The law might see it differently, but then the law might just state that the mortal remains of the deceased be left on a major road on the levels 1 to 4 or on any road on the levels 1-2, in which case the main party would have broken the law when they strung up those corpses for better visibility.

>>154775998
I don't really. Cabron seems to be a drama device, and this series hasn't been really drama heavy, so it feels out of place. Would love to see lvl. 50 Laius PvE build vs Cabron lvl 25 PvP build go head to head. Laius would manhandle him.

Which Dungeon Meshi creature/character/scene are you most excited to see animated in the inevitable anime?

I'm curious about what sort of voice they'll give Chilchack. He's tiny and his age was initially ambiguous but he's very much a grown man.

>>154768426

>>154774376
>right or wrong, it could be said that what Cabron did was fair: he fought against the party that attempted to kill his own's, if he lost he would lose the remaining money (so, no rez money anymore).
Cabron massacred a whole group, some of which surrendered. Then he did a 180 and denies his party the loot. In fact, you could say he was all about hurting others, no matter his own gain. This means Chaotic Evil.

>>154775998
>So after all is said and done, do you personally like Kabru and his party?
No.

>>154782541
>This means Chaotic Evil.
No, it doesn't.
Chaotic means that you have no underlying principles or laws behind your actions.
Refusing to loot because that would be wrong means that he is not chaotic.

>>154782731
>Chaotic means that you have no underlying principles or laws behind your actions.
Neutral Evil: "I'll do what's best for me, fuck everyone else."
Lawful Evil: "Rules are important but meant to be bent."
Chaotic Evil: "I want others to suffer even if it hurts me."

>Lawful Evil: "Rules are important but meant to be bent."
>Chaotic Evil: "I want others to suffer even if it hurts me."
Not quite.
Lawful means that you have a personal ethos. It does not mean you follow the official laws.
A lawful good paladin will not support a vile king as he oppresses his people. Instead, a lawful good paladin will aim to install a good king or at least to improve the law.
A lawful evil villain is honorable. They probably won't go back on their word.
Chaotic means, you do not believe in anything that hinders your freedom.

And evil doesn't mean you relish in making others suffer, although people that enjoy making others suffer would be described as evil.
Evil in DnD terms is that you would make others suffer without second thought.

speaking of Senshi, this reminds me that being well fed might be a reason why Laius' party could have an advantage over Kabru's, should they meet and fight each other in the dungeon's lower levels (instead of the upper levels and the surface, where both parties are going to atm). Being malnourished was the reason why Laius' party lost against the dragon, the first time. Also, the deeper Laius' party goes, the more difficult it should be for Kabru's to reach them (if the kobold somehow didn't find them in the surface or on the party's way up there), especially if Laius' party has to walk over water again.

Kabru crew is actually pretty skill, but unfortunate for them, Laius crew is actually one of the great one.

When the bar lady state that there are big group splitting up the image shows that they refer to Laius group. Even the Gnome scholar acknowledge them.

The most fatal thing is Kabru didn't have the extensive monsters knowledge that Laius had which cause him to made a lot of stupid decision on dealing with things inside the Dungeon.

Laius is highly capable leader with extensive knowledge on how to survive the dungeon. The "moronic" side of him is mostly attributed to his weirdly deep fascination toward monsters.

You have the 4 typical base classes: fighter, mage, priest, and thief, and then the advanced classes: bishop, lord, ninja, and samurai.

Laius is advancing into a Lord class, which is basically a fighter who can use priest abilities. One of the requirements is that he has to be of a "good" alignment, which could end up being ironic considering his penchant to want to eat everything.

there are natural dungeon like farlene cave and there are "man"-made dungeon like the mageschool micro dungeon.

The problem being some dungeon "balance" require the existence of explorer to weed their number or else the content of the dungeon will bleed out to neighboring area.

or even bigger problem is that the dungeon is already balanced and explorer came in and ruin the said balance and causing the possibility of the bleeding problem

Different language construct where in japan there is non gender pronoun like "it" but for person.

but english translator is known to chance the gender of feminime men into female and masculine woman into male.

GA have Sasamoto-tono-sensei whose is a masculine chain smoking woman whose gender pronoun change twice in 6 volume. First a "she", then seems due to the look and personality and saying
>girls are all over me
it changed into "he", but then when the next volume shows her in make-up and feminime pantsuit it's changed back to "she".
---

I don't think police/legal report use "He" when the gender is undefined. supposedly it have to state undefined gender and prevent the use of gender specific pronoun for preventing a misleading information.

who would you want to voice marcille and which voice specifically?

>>154805716

I think that if it can be avoided, killing (or just defeating) the dark elf wouldn't necessarily kill the people who've died at least once in the dungeon, because that would mean that Marcille would also die (she said she died at least once to a slime, iirc)

I'm not sure exactly what you wrote here, but 28 specifically (Chilchack) definitely counts as a child for elves and dwarves and might affect dating decisions if taken at face value.

Laius also seems to be significantly younger than 28 since he put emphasis on honoring Chilchack after finding out his age, which could exacerbate the age issue by a magnitude of toddler vs. child.

It doesn't really matter with him though. They're not going to end up together. If Marcille shows any interest in dating Laius by the end of this comic I'll eat my hat.

The Soul lingers is part of the dungeon curse who in a sense no allowing death by binding the soul to the body for quite sometime after death.
It's also a system that allows resurrection magic done easily.

In that universe when a dead person becomes a ghost they are considered a lost cause and cannot be resurrected anymore. If the ring was supposed to be resurrection tech then it should have been doing the opposite and preventing the wearer from becoming a ghost.

The ring had the same effect as the dungeon, binding the soul of the dead to a place. It's nowhere stated that it was supposed to resurrect someone. We don't know anything about what the ring actually was supposed to do, only that it's owner was very proud of it.

>>154813820
Ghosts aren't rare. Farlyn was well known for ghost talking. They aren't evidence of resurrection magic or elven shenanigans. They are normal in that universe. The magic of the dungeon specifically bind the soul to the corpse and prevents a ghost.

Aside from all these ghosts? We know that the binding between the body and soul can weaken, that was the reason for Farlyns rather unconventional resurrection on the spot.

>>154813963
That ring WAS elven shenanigans though.

If I am to hazard a guess, the reason the dark elf is still around is because she/he is already dead, but in a pristine preserved way. The spell holding souls inside their bodies was in order to keep the King tied to his corpse.

If you remember, when the Dark Elf was addressing the ghosts, she told them with tears in her eyes that his coming back was imminent. Perhaps that is the reason why the citizens (ghosts) and other undead are prancing around. They are waiting for their King.

I don't think the dark elf is dead. We don't know how long lived elves are so it's safe to assume he/she is still alive.

Yes, aside from these ghosts. The dungeon resurrection magic temporarily prevents their existence unless/until the corpse is damaged.

The dead doesn't normally turn to ghost.
It was the ring that turn the wearer "soul/spirit' into ghost after death

But the ring binds the soul to a place not the body which may make resurrection impossible or not ideal.
Compared to the dungeon that could bind the spirit/ghost to the body, it's an incomplete technology.

>>154814537
Thanks

To the current topic of discussion, we only know that the ring was the one binding the mans soul to his body, and unlike the ghosts we saw in the earlier parts of the dungeon this ghost was capable of speech.

If I'm remembering the gnome's words correctly, the dungeon anchors the soul to the body and it's not until the body has sufficiently decomposed that the spirit becomes unshackles and is capable of posessing other people. The ghost of the man in the cemetary was able to possess Laius without the body being deteriorated too much (he was only dead a couple of days.)

It's possible that the ring is an imperfect copy and only binds the soul to the earth and forces them to wander in a more lucid state. While the dungeon binds the soul to the body and creates these more quiret ghosts. It seems that only the longest lived ones retain their human reasoning enough to do stuff like aid the party.

>Dark elfs age

Stately if you lost more that 1/13 of your body, the resurrection success chances will dropped significantly.

Mind you, lost not damaged. It's not like you got major stab wound, but more on you lost your lungs and heart like being eaten by creatures or something.

>>154814782
>Didnt some king die like 70/100 years ago?
Don't remember anyone talking about this, but if we can believe the paintings and I see no reason to not believe them then the sorcerer at least went through a humans entire lifespan and didn't change one bit. At the same time we had the pleasure to see very young Marcille, school girl Marcille an now the "grown up" Marcille. She did visibly age alongside Farlyn. Maybe the sorcerer somehow managed to gain eternal life for himself already and the purpose of the dungeons magic was to extend it to other humans.

There is also the possibility that Ryuko has to retcon something because this goes longer than she anticipated

Marcie mention that she's not a spirit/ghost yet as the spirit still bound to the body.

not to mention, farlyn spirit are not wandering around like the ghost in faryln hometown or in that particular level.

>>154814744
>The dead doesn't normally turn to ghost.
Are we sure of that? I am inclined to believe that ghosts and zombies are common to all dungeons. Laius and Senshi refer to them as any other monster, the comic doesn't exactly put emphasis on the idea that ghosts/zombies cannot be found in any other place. I think a high concentration of magic in an area is more likely to lead to the creation of ghost/zombies. Therefore I would assume that in the flashback story of Laius and Farlyn the dead man was wearing a magical ring that contributed to his ghostification.

>>154814791
>The ghost was exactly where the guy was buried.
Maybe he didn't go far from his body because of some shock related to his current state of existence? If the rules of the dungeon is that "Soul is bound to body" than the fact that this guy was floating around several yards from his corpse means that the spell binding his soul isn't exactly like the spell used in the dungeon.

If we pick apart the Gnomes words "death is forbidden in the dungeon" and extend it to how ressurection works it kind of makes sense. Why would simply healing the body allow the soul to return safely? And since the soul is chained to the body they can't freely roam until something else occurs to unchain them. This is what we see on the surface despite the body of the victim still being there.

It's actually interesting because it would mean that the only reason that we see spirits in the dungeon is because enough time has passed to completely erode their bodies since even the bones of Farlyn were able to act as an anchor.

And why would an elf sell a ring that had the exact same effect as the dungeon to some random human? And how does Farlyn know ancient blood magic used in resurrections?

I think it's likely that the soul arts have been known for some time to the elves at the very least, but they crucial step of how to anchor the soul to the body after death is what they are lacking and what the Gnome scholar is searching for.

>>154815186
>I am inclined to believe that ghosts and zombies are common to all dungeons
The soul spell is specifically attributed to a wizard-made magic spell. Dungeons are naturally occurring but we don't know if the soul arts are a natural occurrence as well.

>>154814941
The sorcerer is probably extending his lifespan by using his forbidden blood magic. Or he's in a lich state.

>>154815259

>>154815285
Tolkiens work is the only one I can think of in which they are actually immortal. Faerun has them living up to 700 years, which may be the inspiration for these elves.

>>154815230
The soul spell that temporarily prevents ghostification is man-made. We need to be specific. That doesn't mean ghostification is man-made. I think it makes sense that ghostification is a process normally found in dungeons due to their high concentration of magic.

>>154815367
>I think it makes sense that ghostification is a process normally found in dungeons due to their high concentration of magic.
I can dig this but everything we've seen related to ghosts or spirits has been the result of man-made spells. I think that this particular phenomenon is completely artificial.

The Gnome mention the current crop of magician could create binding of spirit to the body that happen in the dungeon at large scale.

And thanks to the non existance of soul binding spell, resurrection may be very rare of most possibly non existent outside the dungeon.

The Gnome mention the "resurrection" is done by merely heal the damaged part, so it's actually a healing spell and then the dungeon take care the revival part.

>>154815428
The one that happen in laius hometown is rare or possibly their first occurrence and that happened artificially.

If ghost require large amount of mana to form it might explain why its rare in outside but plenty in dungeon designed to well designed channel mana.

I'm not so sure about that. I think what we have seen that everything that pertains to soul-binding is artificial. We know that dungeons naturally spawn monsters of all sort. Well, a dungeon can be made artificially, but once its ecology is settled down it does stuff by itself, it accumulates magic and it spawns monsters. I'm inclined to put ghosts in that category. On another hand, Chilchac briefly mentions necromancy in this one page so I guess necromancers also exist in that universe and can manually create ghosts/zombies/skeletons/ghouls.
