I don't agree the verse should cap at LS in the slightest, nor should there be any downgrades. Quite simply its nonsensical, and contradicts the entire series especially. You’re telling me that these characters barely got faster between the cave arc, and final arc.
That's not something we can simply over look.
For starters, I didn't even realize Yami was defending with Black Moon until I reread the chapter, which adds substantial context. He's blatantly talking about the limitations of Black Moon due to Morgens output, which was brought up on multiple occassions. Several chapters ago before Morgen buffed his light,
Yami's black moon blocked his light rays just fine. After getting one shot he lost Black Moon,
Yami didn't reactivate Black Moon until after he saved Nacht with his new form.
He specifically states "
that attack was light speed, it was all I could do to block it with black moon" Black Moon blocks spells by nullifying/erasing them. It drags them in, and erases them, that's what dark magic does.
However, attacks with a higher magnitude of power can nullify that property and these rays were straight up ignoring it, so he could only parry/deflect them. A light speed attack of that magnitude would absolutely wreck him if it connected. Yami says he has no openings, and that's because
Morgen is surrounding himself with several lights that have the magnitude to blast through his nullification barrier +
a mass of darkness that can drag in any of his dark magic spells
Morgen used his darkness to enhance the AP of his light to counter Yami's nullification. Not only is d
ark magic inherently slow, but in order to enhance it's speed one must use cloaked weapons in conjunction with reinforcement magic as stated by Patry and confirmed with Yami. Mages reinforce their bodies with magic to exceed the speed of their attributes. The same applies for light magic and anti-magic. Need I remind you Yami stated
Morgen himself was too fast, and not his attacks.
Ichika also states her dark Yojutsu works best with martial arts and sword fighting. None of those things are present in Black Moon so. His reactions aren't the problem, the output of the spell is.
It's contradictory to assume Yami's Black Hole can't neg light speed spells when it's literally negged one of two spells stated to be lightspeed on panel.
A much weaker Yami with Black Hole (which is just a weaker Black Moon) immediately restricted Patry's light speed movement spell, so it definitely wasn't the speed of the spell that's the issue, it was output. That means a mage using light magic, to move at LS cannot escape the pull of his Black Moon without being caught in it. P
atry blatantly stated that he didn't think there was a spell that capable of stopping his light speed movement. Yami has no counter to Morgens darkness or light since he's being countered by both attributes. The darkness that amplified his light is the exact same darkness that swallowed his dimension slash.
Black Moon is consistently negged by spells with far superior output. 50% Lucifero's gravitational field, Morgens dark aura that drew him in, Dante's singularity all of these achieved just that.
Need I remind you in the cave arc Yami stated if Asta would have been incinerated by Patry's divine ray of punishment if he tried to deflect it since its a light speed with a substantial output, not even Yami could deflect that. The demon-soul pill enhances physical abilities of the one who takes it by raising their magic power. That's why Yami can even parry the attack without turning into dust. His physical abilities are boosted enough the withstand the recoil, and is able to
physically react to Morgens LS attacks even after he fired them. Yes Yami has ki, but its explicitly shown that he's able to react to the attacks after they're fired. Yami caught the attack with his sword, then parried up his head.
We even see the deflected flash in the distance. Yami is able to react to the attacks after then launched.
Morgen continuously spams his attacks, and Yami in response consistently dodges and parries
In the cave arc Patry didn't even think Yami was fast enough to dodge his ray of divine punishment since he considered it a speed he would never avoid. 300+ chapters later, not only is Yami deflecting these "unavoidable" speeds but he's dodging them. It makes no sense to assume Yami only "barely" got faster throughout the entire series when he's dodging attacks that were assumed to be unavoidable. The makes absolutely no sense especially with what happened in this chapter.
Morgen had to bull rush Yami in order throw him off balance just to tag him. And for the record. Yami Morgen himself is too fast, not the light he's shooting. And we know for a fact characters can outspeed their own attacks considering berserk
Asta statued his own slash to tag Dante, since his ranged attacks were too slow to tag him.
Furthermore,
Ichika intercepted Morgen's LS attack when they're were
only a few feet away from blasting holes in her brother. Meaning she outsped the rays before they could even hit Yami which at minimum should be an ftl feat, and we know Ichika and Yami at this point should at least be relative in speed.
Black moon in its current state is a bad matchup for Morgens attacks since the output of his attacks are too high, while Ichika's Black Star is a solid counter since it can just redirect it. So the challenge is the magnitude of the attack, not its speed.
It's even stated that they'll focus on deflecting the attack since they couldn't absorb it. There's not one single scan that says LS is too fast. Again, the issue was the magnitude of the spell, not the speed. We've seen confirmed light speed spells with wide ranges and narrow ranges and varying outputs of powers. Yami's Black Hole from the cave arc could stop weaker LS spells such as Patry's movement spell so the Yami had issues combatting the out of Morgen's spell, not the speed. Getting hit by LS spell of that magnitude would absolutely wreck him since Morgen has superior magic power. There's not a single statement that says Morgen's attack was too fast, what was stated was that Morgen himself is too fast. There are numerous instances of characters having physical speed superior to the speed of their ranged attacks.
TLDR; Yami saying if he's hit at the SOL with an attack of that magnitude, he's finished, he's not trying to end up like Jack. Not once did he say it was too fast. That "LS" cap should be a no go.
Didn't I tell you that before Yami he was able to
One Shot Lucius with a single slash? Then let's compare it with Yuno who had to be
seriously injured to defeat Lucius. And don't forget that the Yuno when he defeated Lucius was Yuno whose AMP was above speed 478.48c.
Yami being able to one shot the Lucius clone shouldn't affect the speed scaling considering Yami had issues with the magnitude of Morgen's attack and not the speed. As stated earlier Black Moon has already nullified light speed attacks, however it cannot neg a light speed attack that has a higher magnitude of power.
