I really love this, it's actually got a plot and the two mains aren't instantly in fluffy domestic healthy love. They're incredibly flawed,its refreshing.
But also ppl being like "shouma & yoshiko is incest!!" Its not, but regardless if it bothers u that much, why are u reading? Tsubaki literally wants to bang her own grandfather. These ppl are Yakuza, who deal in really horrible illegal shit. Why is shouma who has known yoshino for less than 6 years incest? They're not even childhood friends lmao
I actually prefer kiri/yoshi more, but the "shou/yoshi is incest" excuse is so pathetic, it's not accurate and even if it was, I seriously ask how yall can condone all the other shit in this manga but not that. So pathetic.
Someone else mentioned the last chapter that maybe Jurgen is part of the Templars and is actually using slight magic on the MC at times (which is why MC against all logic decided to stay with him). This chapter lends the theory credibility imo.
At least, I hope thats the explanation because otherwise I have 0 sympathy for the MC because it would mean he was dumb enough to make the decision to break up with someone but then immediately agree to stay a week with them, even knowing he's distracting and is part of the reason he's doing poorly at his job currently.
I don't think Jurgen is playing this time, the cuffs and his words seem pretty sinister. I don't know whether he's a spy unwilling to lose his source, or just a regular yandere, but either way I like it. I thought their relationship was pretty underwhelming until now cause it was 99% sex, at least now their dynamic has evolved.
im curious about the series but I can't work out who the top is. Do they switch or is the dynamic fixed?
Please re-read the title. And the description too. What part of "tyrant" do you guys not understand? Please look it up in a dictionary.
All this "Dylan is so mean now :(" "I don't want them to get together anymore its toxic" what were you ppl expecting??
THIS IS LITERALLY A STORY ABOUT A WOMAN WHO WAS TORTUOUSLY TURNED INTO A SWORD, ENSLAVED FOR 400 YEARS, AND NOW BRUTALLY SEEKS REVENGE BY USING AN INNOCENT YOUNG PRINCE WHOM SHE PURPOSEFULLY SEDUCES AND TURNS INTO A TYRANT SO HE'LL DESTROY AN ENTIRE EMPIRE
What part of that premise made u guys think this would a sweet, wholesome, healthy story?? Are you guys aware that not all romances are sunshine and roses? Sometimes stories, even those of the romance genre... feature conflict and flawed characters. Wow, what a revelation. Seriously.
Im annoyed because something similar happened in another story about a tyrant male lead, and its so frustrating. There are SO MANY wholesome happy healthy love stories out there, why can't you guys just go read those? Let us have a story where there is actual conflict for gods sake. (╬￣皿￣)凸
Im gonna vomit blood from the pain of seeing the "you've read all thats been updated so far" screen. We have finally reached the novel's original premise, I'm very excited to read it. I've really loved watching their relationship progress, especially the way Dylan slowly fell into dark obsession. He's becoming a yandere hahaha
the chase/hunt for her will be so satisfying to watch
If anyone wants to read the light novel version, I think I found it:

MC is kind of dumb. I get that he likes Jurgen and he's breaking up with him because he doesn't want to get him involved and because he's dangerously distracting, but agreeing to stay the week with him?? My dude, where did your logic go? How would that make the break up any easier, and make Jurgen less distracting?
Idk, I just don't think the MC is very smart. And it's a little hard to be convinced of his love for him when 90% of the interaction has been banging and he even states at the start they're not really "dating"
Also Jurgen 100% knows more than he's letting on and is probably involved in the industry, probably on the enemy side imo.
was this chapter in very low quality for anyone else? It was thankfully still readable but I wouldn't be able to read every chapter like this, it really hurts the eyes
every time our Medea and Psyche level up, so does the final boss. As much as I want to see him brought down, it'll be all the more exciting and satisfying if he's still a worthy opponent.
I think he's catching on- not that Psyche and Medea can switch bodies - but that he's missing something big and being played instead in some way.
I love this series, I wish there was more like it. Its so refreshing to have characters who are not just naive, dumb, generic shoujo protagonists.
Dont get me wrong, the pace is pretty fast and I can understand the frustration with that. The miscommunication element is frustrating too.
But I'm really glad we FINALLY got a ML with genuine flaws. 99% of the time, the big bad ~merciless~ male lead is always too kind and instantly cares for the FL. At least this time we have a character working through his feelings and confronting his flaws, trauma and what he's done. He's a genuinely bad, TYRANT EMPEROR. Seriously guys, its in the name...
There's so many sappy generic healthy relationship series out there, let some of us have darker ones. Not everything needs to be wholesome uwu perfect romance.
I want the mc back in "Veronica" form, she's so boring as the meek plain jane. I came here to read about a badass, this painting arc is overstaying its welcome imo
its cute but a little frustrating to read. I know it seems strange but considering how she acts and the ML's suspicions, he should have just been like "fly around in a circle 3 times and squawk if you understand" or something. I know she's a ~bird~ so it might seem silly at first, but there's literally nothing to lose by just confirming.
I like that the mc is not just some nice goody two shoes, he's pretty morally grey and self serving - its a breath of fresh air.
I wonder though - if End retained his memories, he probably retained his soul too, maybe he'll absorb his master instead and gain all the powers.
I wonder what he'll do from then on. I can't wait to read more :)
Although I've been suspicious from the start that the bf was not ordinary, and I still think he's wrapped up in this somehow, but part of me wonders if the author is leading us by the nose, knowing that we'll think this. A red herring perhaps, that it seems so obvious he's he's from one of the organizations.
well this at least makes a lot more sense now that the chapter's translation has been fixed. I sort of feel bad for her, I wouldn't say I ever hated her anyway, but I'll wait until we see more before I decide if I like her or not.
The crown prince looks even worse now though lol
I like the smut and I cant believe I'm saying this as a smut fan, but I actually want to get back to the plot
I also somewhat feel suspicious of the bf, I reckon he's in the same line of work or is straight up the enemy or third party.
I actually dont think the quality dropped, not in my eyes. I'm sorry about the other group, they sound arrogant and shitty, I wanna keep supporting the corona kids scanalation group. You guys are great, thank you for the update!
Hmm I don't think I like this. Its both well written...and sort of not at the same time? All of them are changing their tune far too quickly I think, and its painful to have to read her being so subservient and begging for forgiveness all the time. I get that she's terrified of dying, but it still feels like she's not showing enough frustration/inner animosity to these people.
And she's getting (emotionally) touched far too easily, these people have emotionally abused and bullied her for the last 6 years, she should be way more wary of their sudden change...
Its so weird, some parts of it are genuinely tragic and moving to read, and the characters are interesting, but their affection is going up way too much.
Im disappointed, this looked pretty good and had good art...
Hello, Im looking for some more villainess stories where the villainess is an ACTUAL villainess, and not just somebody whose secretly nice ect, I want a flawed character who wants to mess shit up yknow. Doesn't have to be reincarnation, transmigration, revenge or romance, just as long as the FL is actually a genuine villainess.
The best ones I've read so far are these-
-the way to protect the female lead's older brother
-the villainess turns the hourglass
-I want to be you, even for just a day
If anybody knows any similar ones, please let me know! :)
