That is a great method, however, it would take a lot of time. And I also believe she can figure this out by herself, and since she did something harder with Adam's help, it would be far easier on her

Well, that is at least what Adam thinks Personally, I could spin some b*llsh*t on how she unlocked her Semblance and not her Aura by herself, and then unlock her Aura when she is in battle Though, I am not sure if that approach is the best choice. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for your reasonable criticism. Indeed, Adam's relationship with the females of the Chat Group had progressed quickly, and there weren't many scenes to develop their relationship, but I suppose that is my fault and failure as an author. However, I feel like you have misunderstood something. It was never confirmed in this fan fiction that Rimuru is the reincarnation of Veldanava. Sure, Adam did speculate for whether Rimuru is a reincarnation or an inheritor to Veldanava, but nothing was ever confirmed, and he himself doesn't know. Beyond that... Well, I tried to keep Rimuru's personality roughly the same. But since she is a woman in this fan fiction, she is bound to be different than in the original, and it is difficult to potray her personality reasonably with the same flavor as in Canon when all her previous' life experiences were different

Other ideas? Hm, there are some ideas that a reader has suggested to make this arc more interesting, and the whole thing with Merlot was one of them The Schnee Semblance is genetic, Adam could copy it. Though I am not sure, semblances are basically soul-based, and the Schnee semblance is genetic-based? It is a bit confusing, but I guess something could be done about this Maybe he can also figure out how to copy other Semblances without eating the owner's soul. Perhaps not their semblances whole, but Adam could analyze how they work with the help of [Great Sage] and mimic them with his power Fiona Thyme, that sheep girl in Atlas, has a pocket storage. Soul-based pocket storage could be useful. Though he already has [Stomach], it could be used as research value, and for future reference for other things At the battle of Atlas, Adam could also 'borrow' Atlesian Airships and other tech. They aren't that advanced compared to honkai tech, but they are a different technology tree from another world, so they should have some value for research. And it could also be a nice gift to Welt or Bronya when she becomes the Herrscher of Reason Eating Ozma and his accumulated memories, skills and experience would be something he'd probably accept. Especially if he gets a promise of Adam to defeat Salem, and shows proof that he could indeed kill her permanently I do not know about that Ever After stuff and the Fantasy Tree as I don't have enough knowledge of Rwby, but it could be an interesting addition. Thought I am not sure how to implement them, and what role they would have in this arc Apparently, there's also a robot golem thing that can reforge people's souls? Not sure if that is true, I have researched it, but found nothing Those are the ideas another reader suggested, and I think they are enough to make this trip throughout Remnant quite eventful. Probably not all of the above could be implemented, but they have great reference value

Again, old habits die hard. Still, he will stop caring about being human, but I feel like his conflict is needed to be shown. For roughly 30 years combined from both of his lives he was human, and it would be really weird if he became used to being something else right away, it would seem as if his character is too robotic Again, he will stop caring eventually as he is not a human supremacist or something stupid like that, but it would need some time getting used to his new state of being

I want to say... You truly cooked on this one, just like the idea with Ophis I don't want to say much, I'll just have to figure out the specifics, since you've already gave me a direction to work with And well, what you've suggested doesn't really conflict with anything I had planned previously. So for now, are there any other significant locations that Adam can visit? I feel like, that in addition to that temporary goal, Adam also needs to encounter one event for the places he visits. It is not one that he knew would happen before that, but one that happens to occur near him, and he decides to intervene. It would be much more interesting that way, since it would add some spice to his travels

Good proposal. However, there is a problem with Merlot himself. I don't think his personality is suitable for travelling around with Adam, and it would be hard to get him to agree Also, not sure what more could be done in regards of exploring Menagerie. I feel like aimless travels would do no good. And of course, even if Adam goes sightseeing around Menagerie, I'm not sure what to write, and how to not make it boring

Not sure. We are basically in the end game of this Arc at this point, so it shouldn't last much longer. All there is to do would be to defeat Salem, but I don't know how many chapters it would take for that to happen

Are you saying this because Vishnu can 'devour and evolve infinitely'? ...But well, no. This are his thoughts, and this is his own personal opinion and perspective on perfection

I suppose that is a good choice. But both? As in, both Ishtar Rin, and normal Rin? My personal favorite? Well... it is quite difficult to choose only one. But if I had to choose my favorite girl from fate... It would either be Tamamoe-no-mae ... Or Sakura, and both for me too. As Kama is included in the package as Sakura is her vessel

Based on my understanding of you.... The answer is definitely to make this arc more meaningful, or to make the 'cycle of hatred' more defined, and make Adam aware of the consequences of his actions, as his involvement indirectly lead to that Lion's death, and subsequently the birth of this Grimm .... Or something above those lines.

Thanks for your review, I didn't expect to get complimented on the characters and world building, but I appreciate it nonetheless! ... And of course, Fate is 'fated' to be included. But only when he gets strong enough, as we don't want him to get beaten up by the counter force or something even more terrifying, now do we?

Mostly. His unique skills were granted by the voice of the world because he had the necessary desire and ambition. And also, he used his abilities smartly in order to get stronger... something that surprisingly, doesn't happen as often as it should

So introducing this new Grimm as the personification of the negativity that exists in Remnant? Good idea... But still, aren't Grimm created by Salem? Or the dark god? I'm pretty sure Grimm are only attracted by negativity, not made by it. And also, Grimm spawn out of Grimm pouls, or made by Salem, but she doesn't have the capability to create such a creature. Maybe the dark god could have made it, or he could have planted 'a seed' where if it is given enough negativity, it would spawn, but that just sounds like a pointless task to me Again, I just want this to make sense, as I don't want to just artificially introduce new characters just for Adam and Co to experience a setback and lose.

Adding a new Grimm as an additional 'boss fight', you say? It is quite interesting, however, I don't know if a spike in negativity could create such a major threat. I feel like it would be more realistic for an already formed ancient Grimm to be sleeping, and awaken after that spike in negativity... And that specific Grimm could also have been strengthened by that spike in negativity

.... Are you talking about this Mayuri??

I don't think there is anything else in Remnant that could be used as a threat beyond Salem ( brother gods don't count). But well, I want to hear you out first

Really? Well... I shall believe you on that

Yeah... I am just so used to hearing characters call her 'Mebius' in Japanese that I instinctively wrote it like that

Yeah...
