City Block level Upgrade to Mid Tiers
It's been a long time so i don't even remember why we didn't scale people to the whale anymore. Lets put that aside for a moment, multiple characters like Emilia and Rem have magical abilities calced at 8-B. You could say this is magic and shouldn't scale to them physically, except characters comparable to them, who they can trade blows with, like Sirius have tanked those attacks
Now i know we had some heat/freezing revision which made it so we now list tanking heat/ice separate from character's normal stats, but lets back to the White Whale, it has multiple 8-B durability feats, now if anyone has watched the White Whale Subjugation ie this, everyone relevant has physically harmed it, Crush, Rem, Wilhelm etc.
In short everyone should be upgraded 8-B for these multiple reasons.
Natsuki Subaru
Stealth Mastery:
“—Don’t cry, don’t wail, and don’t make a fuss. You truly are a good child. A strong child who protected someone precious to you. Surely your family, and even your younger brothers and sisters you have never set eyes upon, will always think of you with pride.”
He could hear a sinister voice.
Those words were undoubtedly directed at the sobbing child. They sounded like both a blessing and a curse overflowing with resentment, an intense mix of love and hate.
This was twisted. That one utterance was enough for Subaru to tell that the speaker did not possess a sound mind.
“”
They were above him. The moment he knew that for certain, Subaru let out a heavy breath, then went still.
Putting a hand over his racing heart, Subaru stepped onto the spiral stairs. Fortunately, walking silently was one of the skills that his mentor, Clind, had instilled in him over this past year. Leading with his heels before slowly shifting his body weight forward, Subaru inched toward the top of the tower with stealthy steps.-Volume 17, Chapter 1
Felix Argyle
Pain Manipulation:
Gradually, his leg was enveloped in the faint light and heat coming from Ferris’s hand. Bit by bit, the stabbing pain was drawn out, and soon, it felt better than ever.
“Hey, are you serious…?! If you had such convenient magic all along, don’t be stingy and just use it sooner! Yes, yes, yes! I can move! I can…”
With the pain completely gone, Subaru emphatically stomped on the floor several times. After that, he slapped his leg where the wound had been. When he did so, he felt something wet on his palm. He saw that it had become deep red.
His right leg’s wound had split open and was bleeding with a fair bit of force.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, it’s not healed?!”
“I never said I healed it. I only asked if you’d regret losing the leg. All I did was remove your sense of pain. If you try hard enough, you should even be able to run around.”
Subaru was stunned by how much he was bleeding as Ferris tied a fresh bandage over the wound. Just like he had explained, his leg didn’t hurt at all.
It was painfully obvious that this rather unnatural state did mean he could push it to some extent-Volume 17, Chapter 5
Emilia
Martial Arts:
Terya! Soya! Soooi!”
Raising shouts that, as usual, somehow came off as silly, Emilia looked like she was a raging gale as she hounded Sirius with ruthless ice attacks.
“Eeeiiiyah!”
Spinning her body, Emilia danced as she closed in with twin swords of ice. Sirius swung burning golden chains about, shouting insults as she intercepted the blades, only for Emilia to crouch down as she spawned a new spear of ice, which she immediately used to swipe at Sirius’s chest.
With a painful cry, the force and impact hurled Sirius across the paving stones, leaving her rolling to a stop on the ground.
—Emilia was making full use of her vast mana capacity, launching high-speed combo attacks, fully intending to destroy her ice weapons in the process.
When she used the martial art that Subaru had dubbed “Icebrand Arts,” the fleeting nature of shattering ice engendered such phantasmal beauty, it was like watching the dance of a fairy.
The remnants of ice that were smashed during the battle danced and scattered as glittering mana set the stage for the pair. Emilia and Sirius—fire and ice—employed contrasting weapons as they continued to pursue their deadly duel.-Volume 17, Chapter 2
Garfiel Tinsel
Martial Arts:
Garfiel had rushed out of the Water Raiment that evening because of the lingering effects of his interaction with Reinhard the Sword Saint.
The current Sword Saint was known as the strongest not only in the Kingdom of Lugunica, but in all four of the great nations.
Not only had Garfiel heard the run-of-the-mill rumors, but he’d also heard about the man directly from Subaru, who had met the living legend. That was why Garfiel had been longing for a chance to meet him in person someday.
He’d firmly believed that this was a necessary rite of passage for him to become the strongest.
To Garfiel, being called the strongest held a special meaning.
He was sure that anyone who was born a man must have dreamed of being the strongest at least once. And everyone who had that dream forgot about it at some point over the course of a long life, yearning for that which they had abandoned. Garfiel did not want to forget that dream.
That title was an absolute necessity for the cowardly Garfiel to protect the things that were most important to him. With that thought in mind, he chased after it without rest.
That was why the fact that he had subconsciously backed down the instant he was face-to-face with the strongest was currently driving him to despair.
He’d lived for a scant fifteen years, yet Garfiel had spent the majority of his life in training. He poured all his effort into mastering the martial arts, proving he could uphold his oath to protect what was precious to him with his own two hands.
The instant he yielded ground in the face of real strength, it felt like he had betrayed his oath.-Volume 17, Chapter 4
Capella
Regeneration (Mid): The Regeneration page has been updated, regeneration from just a head is now just mid, so Capella should be downgraded.
Sirius
Soul Manipulation: Her authority is stated to work on the level of souls themselves
“Beako! Is Shamak ready yet?!”
Facing a frothing mob to the front, Subaru called out to Beatrice. However, the girl who was the linchpin of their plan ruefully bit her lip at the sight of the throng.
“…I’ve made a mistake.”
“What?”
“This blasphemy is fundamentally different from Nekt! This is closer to a curse or a hex than any proper magic. I suppose you could call it manipulation of souls themselves! This is not something a mere Shamak can deal with!”
Beatrice’s voice trembled with anger and distress. Hearing that, Subaru gritted his teeth.
He didn’t understand the principles at work in detail, but it was enough to know that Beatrice had judged that Operation Shamak could not be salvaged.
And the fact that the people in the square were being consumed by a tremendous wave of emotion far beyond the norm meant that—Volume 17, Chapter 2
Consequently Reinhard, Felt and Priscilla who resist Sirius authority should get Resistance to Soul Manipulation.
Julius
Paralysis Inducement:
However, before those two varieties of wicked blades could reach him—
“Even if they have fended off Lady Crusch’s sword blows, there is no escaping the rainbow’s yoke!”
—three different, dazzling colors circled around the Witch Cultists’ heads, summoning a cylindrically shaped aurora to seal the enemy’s movements.
Of the six greater spirits serving Julius, three acted in unison to catch the cultists. The cylinder of light must have had incredible restraining power, for the Witch Cultists went down on their knees from incredible pressure upon them.-Volume 17, Chapter 5
Roi Alphard
Acrobatics:
Don’t push yourself too much, spirit mage!!”
“Formally, I am a Spirit Knight. I have heard rumors that you are a gourmet, but will you grant my lovely buds a warm reception?”
“Oh, I’ll give ’em a real passionate welcome! I’ll rip ’em apart like the annoying pests they are!!”
As the approaching aurora seared his vision, Alphard brimmed with slavish appetite. To seal off his enemy’s avenues of escape, Julius pursued Gluttony with seemingly endless sword strikes from every angle.
Subaru would have liked to support him without a moment’s delay, but Alphard’s almost-feral movements, which had him darting all over the roof, prevented Julius from landing a clean hit. He had to do something with Gluttony—with Alphard right there—Volume 17, Chapter 5

“—It reeks.”
He heard a single word trickle out in a muted voice, like someone was casting a curse.
It was a vicious word that seemed to resent all existence.
“It reeks. It reeks. It reeks. It reeks. It reeks. It reeks. It reeks. Itreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeksreeks! It reeks! It reeks, it reeks, it reeks!!!”
A moment later, cracks ran along the icicle that had slammed into the upper portions of the time tower and impaled itself in the wall. In the span of a single breath, new fissures ran along the entirety of the mass of ice; an instant later, the icicle shattered into glimmering fragments.
Standing among that dazzling diamond dust, which scattered under the rays of the sun, a single eccentric stood.
She was not unscathed. Half of her white bandages were soaked with blood, and the tower’s white wall was marred by the ichor dripping from her dangling left arm. As she stepped clear of the fallen rubble, her gait seemed unsteady.
However, the insanity and ferocious emotions residing in the madwoman’s eye was nothing like what Subaru had known until then.
“It reeks…horribly… The stench of a woman. The filthy, abominable, awful stench of the half-demon that stole my precious from me. Even though you are not my precious, your fetid odor bears a remarkable resemblance. Aaaah, how dreadful!!”
On the scant remains of the tower’s top floor, Sirius clawed at her bloody bandages. He’d never seen her spit blood and send spittle flying as she shouted in pure hatred.-Volume 17, Chapter 2
