Benson being so smart and clever in the ways of life has always stuck out to me---the way he got the gas lamp hooked up, the way he convinced the landlord to let them move out, handing daily and rl matters so well. Klein is smart, but even he looks at Benson in admiration in these moments, because he's *got* it. And he studiously studies for his civil service exam, takes the matters of his siblings seriously, and is fun to converse with and joke around with, aware of the events of the world around him. Benson indeed is the GOAT.
Imagine being between teenage and adult and somehow supporting 2 younger siblings while being in an era where people falling into poverty left and right. And both his siblings somehow got proper education😅
@@chearoth5093 for now, it seems that only melissa became beyonder. And she only became seq 9 to enhance her memory and thinking ability to become better mechanic
He is HIM. On a real note, I love Benson for everything he did for his family and it was so nice seeing him get rewarded for it as the novel progressed
This is why world building in Lotm is just terrifying realistic yet also magnificently beautiful, and the icing one the cake, the people living in it felt so real, so empathizing
The way you just put the Grain Act XD Benson if def goat, he even finds a wife, got a kid and put his sister into a good school etc. He worked so hard for it tbh
Actually I'm pretty sure minimal wage was mentioned in the novel after the end of v2 while discussing ways to move the peaple so they can replace the missing working force because of the number of deaths that happened there There was something about it being established by emperor Roselle and that the king raised minimal wage iirc
I think you are half right. Minimum wage wasnt just mentioned in v2, i believe that is when it was either first implemented in Loen or was raised to am extent that it allowed one to afford living. So prior to that, it either didnt exist or was so low that it was basically nothing.
Not really related to Benson, but I just have to share why I believe Lord of the Mysteries had the BEST possible ending for this wonderful series. Having Klein's character feeling actually complete, truly become a powerful beyonder in secret, "Mr. Fool", I was a bit confused how there were still 15 chapters left. However, after I read further into the story, Klein starts wrapping things up. He went to the Theater with his family, helped the allies that assisted him along the way, and helped the people in the City of Silver. I thought this was sort of the Epilogue, and I was really happy with this, but Cuttlefish just took the extra mile. A few chapters later, after what I would have thought was the ending, the longest time skip of the series happened. Then we're given a massive reveal. We find out the Seer Pathway doesn't actually increase lifetime. Then we see Klein, who's now an old man. Having had a conclusion to his story, we're happy to see where how far he's come, yet sad to see his life coming to an end. Now, this would be the end of the story, but Cuttlefish once again goes the extra mile, giving us what I feel like is TRUE closure for this incredible story. We're given the perspective of Dunn, Klein's Captain throughout the story. Having saved Klein multiple times throughout the story, long with his allies. For example, saving Neil from losing control by helping him move on from his dead wife. Saving ALL of Tingen by courageously using the sealed artifact to defeat the evil god's spawn. The readers are then told that after becoming an Angel of the Evernight pathway, Dunn practically stopped aging. We're given that sweet moment of finding out that yeah, he and Daly finally got together(all thanks to Klein). When reading this I thought we'd be given the ending of every character of the series, but Cuttlefish surprises us once again. Dunn is brought above the gray fog, a complete surprise, but I was thinking that maybe Klein was saying goodbye. Instead the readers aren't told what happened during that conversation, but were described how a determined Dunn looked when he exited the gray fog. On the final chapter, we're told it's Monday. Dunn does his daily routine, he checks the clock continuously. This lead me to believe that something was going to happen, maybe a disaster? Foreshadowing for book 2? I never could have expected what happened next. Once it's 2:58, Dunn goes to his room, taking four steps counterclockwise he chants in his head "The Immortal Lord of Heaven and Earth for Blessings" "The Sky Lord of Heaven and Earth for Blessings." "The Exalted Thearch of Heaven and Earth for Blessings." "The Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings." As Dunn rises through the gray fog, he remembers the first time he met Klein, how he invited him to the Nighthawks, Defeating the Spawn of the evil god, and saving Klein and himself from Ince Zangwill, when the nighthawks team worked together with the Church of the Storms, going onto the Seas, when He and Klein defeated Pirate King Nacht before advancing to Sequence 3, and finally, the last words he'll ever hear from Klein. "You asked me, what type of person do I think should rule over this mysterious world? Well... I think they should be Guardians, but also miserable wretches who are constantly fighting against threats and madness. Captain. I want you to rule over this mysterious world. Like a Lord of the Mysteries!" As Dunn finds his resolve, he sits upon the seat of The Fool as he sees the 22 seats glow with crimson light, as figures start to appear in them. At the seat closest to him to his left, he hears a voice say "Good Afternoon, Mr. Fool~"
Why are you here again?... Yk what? I think this is perfect for a butterfly effect so I'm gonna copy this, let's do an error in the knowledge of the fandom🧐
@@pineguin008 fr fr, Benson legit is chill dude and is pretty cool. The problem with that is Mordecai and Rigby, I can't even comprehend how they even mess up something so simple, but hey without them, we wouldn't even have regular show.
The anime/donghua will come out in Summer 2025! There is a trailer out for it and is super hype. The original source material is the novel, Lord of the Mysteries, and it is actually peak fiction. It is so good. I highly recommend it---it unexpectedly became my favorite novel after reading it.

Benson indeed is the GOAT.
Finally Benson getting the recognition he deserves, I have never met a park manager be even HALF as competent as he was
Imagine being between teenage and adult and somehow supporting 2 younger siblings while being in an era where people falling into poverty left and right. And both his siblings somehow got proper education😅
That’s why he’s the GOAT 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Truly a feat
And both siblings end up become beyonder and one day Melissa might lose control

Ah, good to know they got minimum wage. This vid was made with only volume 1 knowledge.
@@pineguin008Oh I hope I didn't spoil much about these volumes
Good video btw
