Please make a physical comic book of this webtoon
Rereading is wonderful because why did I forget about this little detail. Apparently they have chewing gum in the TEK world! A quick google search tells me the first chewing gum was patented in the late 1860s, which is interesting. Since TEK takes place in a fictional world and not on Earth, it’s hard to compare technological advances and eras.
On the same note, the reason why I went back to the earlier chapters in the first place was because I remembered that Nagyunn bought a magazine of Najin:
Which is interesting because having Najin’s picture on the cover and such (as magazines are) implies the existence of technology able to capture a person’s likeness and print it out. Either that or it is hand drawn and then printed, which is viable (unlike the possibility of every copy being hand drawn, because that is simply not plausible and entirely impractical/not cost efficient).
The extent to which the technology in TEK has advanced is unclear; there are magical scrolls distributed among the knights that are used for communication, and they seem to work like a messaging app or social platform on a phone (not sure if they have other applications or uses because we’ve only seen knights scrolling through chat logs or receiving an announcement/message).
But the question is… how long have they been around? They clearly don’t have actual scientifically made cell phones, as is common in fantasy worlds with the existence of magic, but Wild Dog Fidorance seems inept at communicating through the scrolls (I don’t have the screenshot sorry) as if they’re something new. Of course, it might just be because they don’t seem to be in the use of the common people, which would mean that those who become knights would not be accustomed to them growing up, but… I don’t know. Sure, Qilin and other knights, as well as Nagyunn, get the hang of it quickly, but that doesn’t mean it’s been around for a long time. In Nagyunn’s case, he didn’t even know they existed until he met the magician.
So, we know there must be a device used for printing copies of something, there is a magical device that is used by knights to communicate, and that somehow magazines with pictures are printed in color. Is there some device, likely magical, used to take pictures? Is someone meeting with people like Najin and having them pose for hours to capture their likeness? Who knows.
If you were looking for a crazy theory with an answer, I sincerely apologize… but I only bring questions, not answers!! Maybe you can think about it and come up with something, with these details presented to you. (And if you do, please share!! I’d love to talk about the TEK world more! I’m slowly in the process of rereading TEK and taking note of details whenever I have time, which is not too often. Originally I started rereading from chapter 20 and onward—the latest chapter I was working on was 66—but I came back to the first chapters to refresher my knowledge.)
I Lie to Myself Parody Part 2
A sequel to the silly fancomics I did back then (I Lie to Myself Part 1 https://www.tumblr.com/pybownies/697530852667752448/i-lie-to-myself-parody)
The fact that like. Nagyuun acts as if his entire goal is on avenging najin's murder and killing those who killed his brother... but he consistently acts in ways to save the knights n the friends he made. Is fucking. Its so much to me. Like. Fuck dude.
Hes still somewhat souly focused on revenge but when he has to chose between his revenge and the lives of the knights. He starts to really panic. Like in the latest ep 142 he realized if he protected n saved the knights he'd lose his position w the dragon descendants n therefore his chance at killing them and. Its one the first times in the comic that hes really panicked over havin to chose. Like. He wants to save them too.
This time he was saved from makin a choice but i feel its buildin up to a point where his goal for revenge is directly opposed by his desire to save his friends and its going to shatter him. Like. At some point he'll be forced to look at his goal n decide how many lives n who he'd sacrifice for his revenge
Lauzun : Nagyuun is a good person, if you ignore all the things he do on purpose and concentrate on all of the things he do by accident.
Najin: Lauzun you have got to order a piece of this pie!
Nagyunn: *nods along enthusiastically while eating more pie*
Lauzun: *exhausted* I did. you both immediately ate it.
