The novel itself is only 22 chapters, and we are currently halfway through chapter 3 of the novel. But if you were expecting a lighter redemption story, where Lila teaches Ril how to forgive humans...the lightness never comes. ╥﹏╥

I'm warning you now, we have maybe one more chapter left in the manga of "okay"-ness, before we see how alchemists are treated by normal people. There's a reason they're a protected species in their country. Lila gets attacked by humans, rescued by Ril, and then gives herself up as a human sacrifice in an attempt to appease the demons, and she almost dies.

Seriously, the novel gets so dark, I'm still crying. No one dies, but Lila comes VERY CLOSE; she's basically a walking skeleton by the end, except without the walking (Ril has to carry her everywhere). ╥﹏╥

But they're together in the end, so that's nice, right? Shame on me for expecting a sweet love story from a novel calling itself a LOVE SONG. (/TДT)/

My favorite part of this novel is how amazing the two leads are. One's a sociopath and the other's a yandere, and they both lie to each other CONSTANTLY.

Neither of them are good people, but they try their best to LOOK like they are, because they don't want to disillusion the other. It takes SO LONG for them to be honest with each other. (≧∀≦)
