Reader’s Question:
I have a question about “Mushoku Tensei.” Why did Ghis call Rudeus during the rescue of Zenith? Shouldn’t it have been a moment that led to Roxy and Rudeus meeting and ultimately to the birth of Lara? Was it simply because Hitogami didn’t know? I’m aware that I might
have missed some details, but I wanted to ask.
Reflecting on “Mushoku Tensei” and Ghis’s Actions
So, I recently dived back into the world of “Mushoku Tensei,” and I found myself pondering a pretty interesting question. Why did Ghis call Rudeus during the rescue of Zenith? I mean, this moment felt like it could have been a perfect setup for the eventual meeting between Roxy and Rudeus, which ultimately leads to the birth of Lara. But instead, it seemed like Ghis was just doing his own thing, and I can’t help but wonder if Hitogami was in the dark about it too. After chatting with some fans, I learned that Ghis’s actions actually make a lot of sense when you dig a bit deeper. Apparently, Ghis didn’t really know Hitogami’s grand plan at that point. He was more focused on trying to help out Rudeus and his family, which honestly feels so relatable. You know that feeling when you just want to help your friends out, even if you don’t fully grasp the bigger picture? It’s like when you’re at a party, and you see someone struggling to open a bag of chips. You might not know why it matters, but you just jump in to help because, well, snacks are life! It’s pretty wild to think that Ghis was once in the same boat as Rudeus, just a pawn in someone else’s game. He didn’t have the foggiest idea about Hitogami’s true intentions, which adds an extra layer of complexity to his character. It’s like when you’re in a maze and someone gives you directions, but they themselves are lost too! You appreciate their help, but you also realize they might not have the best sense of direction. And then there’s the part where Ghis’s lack of loyalty to Hitogami is revealed. It’s a bit humorous, actually! I mean, how often do we casually agree to help someone, only to realize later that we don’t really care for their cause? It’s like that friend who always asks you to join their book club, but you just show up for the snacks and chit-chat instead of the actual reading. Reflecting on this makes me think about how our motivations can be so layered and complex. Sometimes, we help others not out of loyalty or obligation but simply because we can—and because it feels good to be there for someone. Anyway, I’d love to hear what you all think! Have you ever been caught in a situation where you helped someone without fully understanding the context? Or maybe you’ve found yourself in a similar character-driven dilemma?
