The Magnificence of TCF Foreshadowing
As I recently mentioned in this post, its amazing subtlety surprises me again and again. I just re-read chapter 608, and look what I found.
This is exactly what was said by Cale, word for word, during the fight against the Electric Eel in the Sealed God's Test:
“If the hunter is weaker than the prey…”
Numerous hunters were waking up.
“You just need to make the hunters grow stronger.”
[…]
“By the time morning arrives…”
[…]
“The hunters’ counterattack will start.”
This... this is practically a prophecy! Cale, you dumb potato! That Bishop from the Church of the God of Death was right about you!!! 😂😂😂
If you don't know what I'm getting at – spoiler warning for TCF Part 2 (chapters 1-40):
In chapter 38 of Part 2, Cale calls himself "the Hunter who hunts the Hunters". In other words, he is the Hunter in question, while the Hunters are his prey. (And it's not just Cale, either – notice that there are other "Hunters waking up". Cale is directly inspiring a movement against the Hunters.)
However, they are stronger than Cale when he says that line: because they're an organization that has taken over multiple dimensions.
“You just need to make the hunters grow stronger.”
Cale becomes stronger by using the Dagger of the Word Tree on his heart.
“By the time morning arrives…”
By the time he defeats the White Star and the Sealed God...
“The hunters’ counterattack will start.”
This line fits in two ways: one, the Hunters' counter attack did start at that exact moment. The very same day, if I'm not mistaken.
The second meaning is getting obvious in chapter 40: Cale intends to smack the Hunters in the back the same way they did the Roan Kingdom. They blew up their Royal Palace? He shall blow up the Fayence Residence. They kidnapped Zed and the last remaining Orsena? He kidnaps their Princess and their Blood Martial Arts specialist.
And the "morning" which has "arrived" in Xiaolen? The title of chapters 28-37 itself says it all: "The Sun Has Risen"!
I am not making this up! This is a legit connection!!! 🤩
...As you can imagine, now I'm sitting here and trying to find any more foreshadowing hidden right in front of my face to figure out the incoming plot. Honestly, I'm having the time of my life 😂
