My interpretation is I do wonder about the translation of “slut” being used. Regardless I think it was more to have the MC in his current life be a bit more aware. He was willing sleeping around and it seems initially in his last life he didn’t tell ML about the … custom and made it out like it was consensual which is why he stormed off.
Obviously later on they come clean about it so in the current life I don’t think ML was really trying to recreate the trauma in his dreams. He described it as a Karmic sexual past so I think it was supposed to key us and the MC as trauma showing back up in this life (anything bleeding over to the next life is karmic good or bad) and to heal the trauma he had to have consensual sex with someone he loved ? And I think that’s why once he admitted the feelings the ritual was over.
Shitty village and a ROUGH backstory. Imagine finally enjoying an act that was introduced to you so traumatically. He develop a crush so you decide to stick it out and right before you’re murdered they tell you, you weren’t even abandoned we also murdered your parents (prob bc they wouldn’t let us take advantage of you). Overall I enjoyed the story and how things added up. And I liked how the snake gets a little jealous here and there but is lowkey nonchalant. I hope we get fluffy side stories.

I almost wish chap 33 wasn’t fix bc damn that was hard to read. CAUGHT and just looking stupid smh. Shout out to her though for handling herself and her feelings elegantly.

To clarify the revisions to the chapter just made it so much more clear at how DUMB MC looks bc he just can’t get his shit together. When I first read it, it felt like she was being dismissive/put off. Now she said “yk I’m not stupid right? Tell me what’s going on bc I don’t deserve this” and he still couldn’t lock in to answer that so hard cringe

I’m not on Mi-oks side in the slightest and I think ML ate her up when he said so? MYB. Though I don’t think her reason is “I can’t support you bc I was neglected” it’s more along the lines of I borderline hate myself and see no value in me (bc of my neglect) different (but happy) people make me uncomfortable (her leaving for the country to escape that) and now yall are different AND happy so it’s too much for me.
Like I said it still is a lame reason but you can’t expect a (minor?) person who hates themselves to support anyone who chooses to live unapologetically
Ughhh I LIVE for how cheeky and transparent they are with each other >>> yall taking midwife/nanny applications??
