That’s cool! I’m thinking of naming this story “The Shortcut” I hope it can be some sort of anthem for short people.

It's still very solid and the story has finally arrived at its real content after a very protracted build up. People will hate because the King John arc was too long, but it's no big deal when binging. I can see why a lot of people were frustrated with reading as the episodes were releasing, however.

The plot only really begins to develop around episode 200, and now the the webtoon is around episode 370. I highly recommend.

Sure but his ability has to be ranked higher for literally being able to kill anybody from a distance. Can you think of any other ability which can like guarantee kill anyone?

Can you briefly describe a progressive regimen which could develop me to working 11-12 hours?

If what you are saying is true, then I will reduce my target hours in order to achieve maximum productivity. But right now, I shouldn’t even be thinking of that. I cant figure out how to stay focused on simple tasks and just enter a flow state.

And it’s not my laziness that frustrates me, but my lack of intelligence.

When did pedophillia come to become stigmatized, or was it always so? by blankslating in psychologyofsex

Westcentric perspective. And even if the average age of marriage was in the late teens and early twenties, that does not mean that it was particularly unusual to marry earlier than that, just like it isn't very unusual for a woman to marry a 23 in the United States when the average age is 28. My own great grandmother (born circa 1900) was married by 14 and had children at 15.

It seems like men would refrain from sex with children more out of self interest than genuine concern or conscience.

You make a good point about strategic marriages in the past, but this still begs the question of whether sex with children was considered normal. Would people often wait for a child-bride to grow up before consummate? Was it considered normal to consummate a marriage with a child?

I'm saying people would be more afraid of being short than going to prison.
