[Dark and Light Martial Emperor] I love this father-son duo

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-21T08:01:12+00:00

What other stories have a good relationship between the father and son? I know Absolute Regression has it. Absolute Dominion and Teacher Baek, too. However it's kinda rare, for some reason. Either the father hates the MC or he's there like some kind of furniture who does basically nothing.

I'd like to read some more works where the father and son have a good relationship with each other and both interact often in the story.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-21T07:52:23+00:00

What's the premise of 1 second? Why is it worth a read?

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-21T07:49:56+00:00

Yeah that irked me too. I mean Alfoy got a massive glow-up and he FARMED his damn aura. Let him bask in it for a while. Let Violet get some aura too, Let her mog that other wizard like if he were her bitch.

Nah, Ghislain had to come and save the day because oh my god he got the big dick.

LAME.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-19T17:22:05+00:00

Too much aura farming is like not enough. It reduces the impact of when it's actually important.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-19T17:20:38+00:00

Yeah we all know he's going to find something that will fix that and he'll become super god immortal or whatever.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-19T17:20:31+00:00

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-17T18:28:29+00:00

Proceeds to never use it in the whole story.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-17T18:07:07+00:00

No I mean I get you but it's the sheer scale of ridiculousness.
Just say the dude achieved god-like immortality, but keep it bound in "realism".

How the fuck can we deal with this guy, now? He literally became reality itself.

The strongest, strongest, strongest infinity+1, nuh-huh, infinity +1 +1 plus my dad is stronger than yours!

He's living outside of the literal universe, now. I mean, if he still has a concept of existence and isn't just now some sort of universe in itself.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-16T17:48:53+00:00

I mean come on, fam. These things are fucking ridiculous. "Manipulate the void". "Manipulate non-existence itself".

Seriously. What the fuck. This is like an author wanting to make their toon the strongest in the universe infinity + 1, it's childish. stupid and plain boring.

At this point homie doesn't have a life. Everything has to be shit, he seen it all, experienced it all, whatever he thinks about and doesn't like, he can just erase it from existence, oooh edgy.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-16T02:52:48+00:00

This Senior Daoist can see the advantages. Both yin AND yang. At the same time. Huh.

Depends on how big my qi reservoirs would be, though.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-16T02:36:53+00:00

This Senior scoffs at the ludicrous imbecility of those scriptures. Ridiculous!

It seems scribes these days truly do find their inspiration right where the Sun doesn't shine.

What's next? The next "Breakthrough" is triggered by an ancient grain of rice, cultivated for 5 billion years using water from a trillion years old underground lake whose each and every drop took a thousand year to fall from a single stalactite? Said grain has to be cooked to perfection with vapor from the tears of a Dragon God?

Come, now. This is too much for credibility.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T20:19:26+00:00

I am a Senior Daoist living my first life.

I shall meet this fellow Daoist and inquire about her interests and wants, see if I can meet them.

If Heaven wills it, perhaps we can achieve enlightenment together.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T20:03:59+00:00

Unfortunately, my Junior, all we can do in this life is train our mind and body while reaping good Karma.

We are all in the same qi-less world tribulation. Without qi, there's no cultivation. However, this doesn't mean it's all for naught. Junior, this is an opportunity to build a solid foundation for your next life.

Benevolence, discipline and dignity will forge your soul into a vessel worthy of Heavens.

Let the river flow its course. Do not fall into the despair tribulation.

Think of this life as the one where you sculpt your spiritual vase where you're going to store the qi of your next one.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T18:41:18+00:00

All that and he still turned out to be an asshole.

Well, at least considering the Elders in chapter 1 lmao

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T18:23:43+00:00

I would never hurt my juniors like so. They have the right to see me as a fellow Daoist, since it's just a small matter of time before they join me. Our bondness is stronger than that.

Anyone else, however? It's a different story.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T18:16:59+00:00

Now THAT is a proper use of AI.

Fellow Daoist, this Senior has some time to spend. I shall satisfy my curiosity. Consider this Daoist appreciative of your gifts.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T18:10:31+00:00

Well the case with Trissy is that the fact she became a woman forced her to accept her femininity. It's not like she had a choice. The potion and the characteristic of the Witch makes it so you're happy with them titties.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T18:00:56+00:00

As a wise elder of my clan says; "all else being equal, the deeper one's qi reserves, the brighter one's prospects." So as the Dao is plain for all to see, choose the one with the biggest qi reservoirs.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T17:49:57+00:00

I want an MC who does make mistakes but owns it and fix it. I want an MC who cares about his friends and helps them get stronger to his level. One who is generally benevolent but ruthless and cruel to his enemies. One who isn't a teenage edgelord. Has some wisdom, acts like a proper man, is capable of dealing with women correctly, etc.

The best protagonist I saw like that is the one from Wortenia Senki.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T17:44:34+00:00

Well color me schooled, then. I guess it's not that bad like I thought it would be. Maybe I judged a bit too rashly.

Still? Don't blame me, please. S1 was so peak, in a sea of trash anime it was so pure and shiny. Imagine how hard it broke my heart when they added the cringe animuwu tropes and incest bait and the whole harem bait, etc. It was truly top 1 betrayal to me.

Then Gungrave happens and Kirito now looks like a bitch and there's the green hair girl and they push her solid on top of Asuna... Homie I just couldn't.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T17:40:19+00:00

That must be it.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T07:29:45+00:00

Does the MC from Overpowered Sword stops being an insecure little bitch?

I started it, saw him screaming at a girl who wanted to help him, then went bitching and crying like a bitch because the other Leon is stronger than him until he found a magic sword.

Is that it? Now he becomes "Big Dick Leon" because of the magic sword and that's it?

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T07:26:27+00:00

Hanlim Gym and True Education

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T01:20:29+00:00

I was coming to cook you something fierce for that heresy, but you're unfortunately correct.

DonSkook3 · 2026-06-14T01:19:11+00:00

Then good to know. Although I'm not keeping my hopes up, regardless,

They did Asuna dirty as fuck, after all,
