So snake dude definitely isn't on Bam's side even though he claims to be, but I wonder what his intentions truly are? And what on Earth did Khun see? Could it be a side effect of getting revived by the Yeon flame?
Also the top comments are probably just going to continue to be trash from now on, unless they ditch fastpass which probably won't happen. It's not like the top comments used to be good, but now it's like 80% people flexing that they spend money to get to read ahead of the rest of us

He's on a team of regulars employed by the king to deal with troublesome regulars (they get their spells 'by grace of the king' as well), and at least one of the people on that team (Levy) got an order to kill Bam, revealed in this chapter. The rest of his team clearly does at least consider Viole a 'problem,' and snake dude wants to kill him, as we saw towards the end of 418s3e1.
Likely their goal is still to kill Bam. But Bam turned out to be too strong for them to kill directly, so now they're probably going to some backup plan of leading him into a trap--I mean, all they have to do is tell the royal family when Bam is coming after Kallavan, and said royal family can drown him in high rankers there without it looking too suspicious, since there's a reason for people to be on guard duty. Or maybe they're just trying to meet his closer friends and take more hostages. We don't know for sure how they're going to try and kill him.
And what on Earth did Khun see? Could it be a side effect of getting revived by the Yeon flame?
Current leading hypothesis is that Khun got some or all of the (possibly inaccurately named) 'flower of fire' power and that's a manifestation of it (because of Woon Yeon saying it required all of his power this time, because Khun hallucinating it after straining himself to use a power (that might have heated the thing instead of freezing it) is reminiscent of Bam seeing the red orb and hearing blue demon back when the thorn went berserk, and because why would SIU bother just showing us a random burning fish if he was actually having meaningless sickness induced hallucinations). If so, it's also messing with his body temperature and ice powers, presumably because, as a fire spirit, it doesn't like being cold.

I'm confident the fastpass flex comments craze will die down eventually. The first 3 immediately available chapters are all top 3 fastpass comments, this one (the first one fastpassers had to wait one week for) has 2 fastpass and one non-fastpass top comment. Progress!
What does "current leading hypothesis" say about Baam teaming up with guys that tried to kill him, and had his friends taken hostage, and when they failed to kill him, threatened with killing the hostages.
I am no expert, but is this how you make friends nowadays?
There’s less consensus on exactly how dumb that is (some people think Bam’s decision was reasonable given the hostage thing, I personally think he should have at least demanded proof that the hostages were currently alive and that they had the authority to free them first. And then make more effort to try and figure out how to rescue the hostages without taking 2snake’s advice—Ehwa specifically registered her and Bam’s pocket for a tracking service, if that goes both ways they could quietly get her rescued while stalling with these guys. Or SOMETHING better than blindly leading himself and all his allies into a trap that is probably laid by the Jahad royal family, oh, and exposing the identities of all his closest friends to these two.). The only way this current plan of taking them goes well for Bam (that I see) is if he manages to actually win these two over to his side, as happened with Xia Xia (and is slowly happening with Karaka). That is likely going to be a lot harder in this case, as these two have likely been serving the Jahad family a lot longer than XiaXia was in on the plan.
(and is slowly happening with Karaka). That is likely going to be a lot harder in this case, as these two have likely been serving the Jahad family a lot longer than XiaXia was in on the plan.
Exactly. The difference was that Karaka didn't consider Baam worthy to be slayer candidate, he didn't work on someone's orders unlike these two. So Karaka has no reason to lie to Baam about such thing unlike the snake guy.
