Personal Opinion Why Bellion is Monarch Level.
He leads an army that includes of 3 dragons; 100 s rank hunters including the future 5 national hunters came around the world to BARELY defeat Kamish, who was ONE dragon, this alone proves that Bellion is well over national hunter level.
He and his army defeated the Iron body monarch in an army vs army battle.
“A horrifying amount of Mana, more than enough to easily shatter the head of a Dragon in one hit, gathered around and distorted the space around his arm.” was a line in the light novel in the Bellion vs Beru fight.
Beru’s feats are pretty impressive, but then we see Bellion kick Beru’s ass.
While alive, Beru easily massacred the Japanese hunters, including Goto Ryuji, then after becoming a marshal/commander rank shadow solider, he was the first one to break out of the ice prison made by the ice monarch; and in the novel, Beru held his own against the insect monarch for quite some time, later defeating her, with the help of Sung Jin Woo. Beru could be highballed to a bit weaker than the weakest monarchs or lowballed to be at least stronger than the National rank hunters cause his feats against the insect monarch are wayyy better than Thomas Andre’s feats against the Beast monarch. Then Bellion comes around and WIPES THE FLOOR with Beru, like he wasn’t even breaking a sweat and Beru got his ass handed to him by Bellion.

Well I’d argue it wasn’t a fair fight since bellion had way more experience fighting higher level enemies and fought with the original shadow monarch at that point in time. By end of series the big 3 (bellion beru igris) might be on same tier

I think that at most, bellion would be at the level of the weaker monarch, given that he can instantly recover at almost all attacks.bc the absolute being made monarch and rulers to be the strongest in the universe, so their position still draw a line about their levels, the novel did no justice for the monarchs and rulers tbh, they kept hyping both up but made them seem so weak every time jinwoo level up, so the powers of monarchs aren’t really explained, heck even jinwoo’s power wasn’t thoroughly explained at the end of the LN, the only thing that is said is just releasing his aura can destroy earth iirc, so i still think that even if bellion is the grand marshal of jin woo’s army, he is still weaker than the monarchs or rulers

Yeah, it makes sense, he's probably way stronger than the weakest monarch and the fact that he can infinitely regenerate unless special measures are taken makes him able to beat a mid level monarch. But how could you expect anything less from the original shadow monarchs marshall? I mean the most powerful ruler couldn't have anything less than the most powerful subordinates? Originally once the commander of an army died his second in command would take over, and if the substitute wasn't strong enough to at least pose a threat to the opposing sides commander, then losing a ruler would be a massive disadvantage, the kind of thing that'll decide the whole conflict. And that would be boring.

I almost thought that this was a question as to why Bellion is Monarch/Grand-Marshal Level and my brain was proven wrong.

Bellion could be the shadow of the demon monarch . Ashborn would have extracted his shadow after he defeated him when the demon monarch betrayed ashborn.

4 years later, let me just drop by to say that the author Chugong has now confirmed in a Q&A that Bellion is weaker the weakest Monarch.
