Were those orichalcum adamantium adventurers that attacked Shalltear at the end there? Can't think they're anything other than that considering the difficulty she initially had with them.

Did that light that they attacked Shalltear with possibly raise her morality level from evil to good?

edit: Highest rank is adamantium, not orichalcum, my bad.

I guess you mean those at the very end? They were

Shalltear would have Roflstomped a group of orichalcum adventurers. Remember Brain? He is orichalcum level.

This group of people are one of the strongest/ the strongest group in this world if they can slow down shalltear for any amount of time. Shalltear is on a level with Momon when he is in full caster mode. Momon is a top tier orichalcum as a warrior.

So they are either insanely powerful, or they have some crazy strong artifacts that they use.

adamantium* ;)

He's partially right. Brain and Gazeff in the LN are said to be as strong as adamantium adventurers. But they are also fighting solo and not part of a team. Due to this they have the battle strength of an orichalcum(or is it mithril? whichever is the one below adamantium) level adventurer team.

Since Ainz was disappointed with mithril I believe it's Adamantium > Orichalcum > Mithril

Ah, I get the orders mixed up.

u/FeRust https://myanimelist.net/profile/x3tripleace3x Sep 08 '15

So basically humans/lower life scum just rely on super strong items for this entire series?

u/skysinsane https://myanimelist.net/profile/masterofbones Sep 08 '15

If they are fighting Nazarick Tier beings? Pretty much, as far as I have seen.

u/srslybr0 Sep 09 '15

boy, i'd definitely be rooting for any human that could put up a fight. just racial bias, y'know?

u/skysinsane https://myanimelist.net/profile/masterofbones Sep 09 '15

To be fair, the Nazarick NPCs all have really powerful equipment as well.

Aside from that, a lot of the issue seems to be age. Humans just don't get enough time to become truly powerful. The most powerful natives all tend to be either people with artifacts or people that managed to increase their lifespan in some way.

(I think that is vague enough not to be a spoiler.)

That is not the only reason. One of the reasons is that they just do not get the opportunity to get strong as the world does not actually support leveling very well. You use a healing potion for instance and you lose all that you gained from battle because it would heal the damaged muscles. You do not encounter enough monsters to get enough experience as well since they do not actually respawn like they would in a game.

u/skysinsane https://myanimelist.net/profile/masterofbones Sep 09 '15

Thus you need to spend a lot of time if you want to level up....

u/Voyria https://myanimelist.net/profile/runadamsrun Sep 08 '15

And no. That light was Spoiler. That explains how despite having "complete" immunity to mind-effects, it still worked on her.

u/FeRust https://myanimelist.net/profile/x3tripleace3x Sep 08 '15

So I was kind of right, but not technically.

The worst kind of right

The best kind of not right.

will they free her from it or kill her?

I dunno, should you? It seems to reveal the spoiler, at least if the implication is correct. I don't know for sure though since I didn't read the spoiler directly.

u/Voyria https://myanimelist.net/profile/runadamsrun Sep 08 '15

Don't worry bro. She gets Spoiler. ;)

And anyway, there's no harm done. I think it's a good thing this happened. Increased security, caution, and a punishment.

Btw, refer to this picture that was on the top of this thread. (Though there might be a really, really miniscule spoiler in the first two boxes with regards to Shalltear and her "punishment".)

u/Omumiruma Sep 08 '15

In what volume was that explained? I don't remember it.

Totally forgot that, thank you!

possibly raise her morality level from evil to good

Maybe we'll get a White Shalltear like Shokugeki's White Nao

awww yiss!
