okay so recap

Alois ends up meeting the younger version of Duke due to some time-related plot twist. Later on, the older Duke tells his younger self to go find Alois after they’ve already been intimate and there’s almost a 20-year age gap… so Duke met Alois when he’s still a kid or young teen.

I'm conflicted. The concept itself isn’t bad, and it could’ve worked... but the way it was handled just feels wrong.

This story could’ve hit way harder if the characters were the same age and didn’t lean so heavily into morally grey territory. But I guess that’s to be expected from a short, smut-focused manhwa. Still, it’s a shame…it had the potential to be a longer, more thoughtfully developed series.
