Real! It's getting tiring seeing comment like "Don't read. It's just rape and not a happy ending".
Just because there is abuse & it's not a "happy ending" doesn't mean that the story is bad. Sometimes the abuse is integral in building the character's personality or the conclusion of the story. And a "Happy Ending" for you doesn't mean a happy ending for the characters.
I don't usually rate & review a story, but it's just sad that the story's rating is so low, just because a few readers decided that it's not worth reading, and rate it without actually reading/knowing the whole story. Personally, if the story is not my cup of tea, I would just leave, because I never got to the end of the story, I never knew what the conclusion is.
I'm really glad there are people that gave their opinion about this.
(I put this on the review too but I'm also gonna put it here)
If you get triggered easily just don't read this, but if you like a good angst & revenge story this is for you. Threat it as a villain origin story for the MC.
Some spoilers........This is kinda a happy ending for MC since he manage to get his revenge. "Happy Ending" in a romantic sense ...then no. "ML" (i don't think we should even call him that) is a stepping stone for MC to get his revenge and get more power. By the end of the story "2nd ML" was killed by "ML" (per novelupdate spolier) and MC managed to get more power thought "2nd ML's" death and keep "ML" by his side since he's useful. In terms of story I like it...not because of the s*x seen (I skipped this while reading) but because of how you can see MC's descent to "madness" as he became more and more withdrawn from the world.
