Damn it! I knew I shouldn't have read the dang chapter. I said wait until there's more chapters, but nope. I read the one chapter anyway and now I'm stuck wanting moooore. God, I can't WAIT until the English officials.
On my Mama, on my hood.... I wish Brandon would impale himself on a hot poker. Let it heat up in an open fire to the point its smoking and shove that mutha fucka straight up his own asshole and just....die
Okay, time out. So, when the Saintess confronted the Priest and he recanted his statement, you mean to tell me nobody--not even Shu--caught what Whorenie, I mean Carnie, said?? "Priest! That's not what we agreed on!"...or something rather. That was mad suspicious and basically told on herself so, how did no one catch that??? Is it just me?
Honestly I was baffled like nobody heard that ? that was clear reason to get rid of her for coercing a testimony from a priest and a reason to ridicule those priest value cause now if they could lie for a noble there a not so virtuous anymore. I’m shocked no one realized what she said
"...coercing a testimony from a priest and a reason to ridicule those priest value cause now if they could lie for a noble there a not so virtuous anymore."
You hit the nail on the head! I thought Valia was gonna bring it up at the end, but didn't. Maybe she'll do it in the next chapter, but if she doesn't, then that would be a huge mistake. Everyone was a literal witness to the girl telling on herself and also her brother. Despite that one asshole Priest telling her and stirring the pot, her getting that other Priest involved in this scheme of her and her brother (and AT HER MOTHER'S FUNERAL AT THAT) should be grounds for her losing her position as the whore...I mean mistress...of the second prince.
I knew my manwha instinct couldn’t let me that down lnfao I truly home the mc (fl) seize the opportunity those two served her on a gold plate
TL/DR: I'm annoyed at both Riftan and Maxie to be honest. Both of them are at fault in this whole situation. He is shitty at communication and she has a severe lack of understanding that she needs to build up her powers and experience before going on a major expedition like this.
-----------------------------------------
I know Imma get a lotta thumbs down, but I have to let out this rant, if y'all dont mind.
Yeah, Riftan is being a DICK-FUCK, but he had a point. I mean, she wanted to be treated like a normal Mage aka "like one of the guys", so that means she's not his Wife on this campaign (or expedition or trip or whatever). So, I don't see anything wrong with what he said. Yes, he could've said it a little nicer and in a MUCH better way. And she pissed me off...well, not pissed me off. That's too strong so I'll say she annoyed me. It's bc she asked the one soldier why they had to collect the stones and wouldn't it be better to hurry--she wondered why they couldnt keep it moving. But then a second later, she wants her and Riftan to talk. Which is it? Hurry on with the expedition or stand there and talk about (A) your husband's extreme lack of communication, (B) your lack of experience and potential hazard, and (C) you guys' marital problems? You healed a guy. Great--that's what the job called for. Now get on your horse and keep it moving with the other soldiers. Your Captain/Commander gave you and order. Follow it.
While Riftan should've sat down with Max and explained what he was feeling and at least communicate with her, I'm completely against her coming on this trip. She's not even a rookie--she's a newbie, as in newborn baby. She wouldn't have been able to come on the trip had the Captain/Commander been somebody else and not Riftan (but I have a feeling the Author will probably give her plot armor so that she would do extremely well or be some kind of prodigy). Maybe he/she/they would've done what Riftan was too stupid and stubborn to do, and that is let the girl know that she is NOT ready right now. She needs more practice and build up her experience in smaller expeditions (as in ones that arent so dangerous and maybe closer to home or maybe even just simple healing of the people in their...dukedom?? Kingdom?? Town?? I forget what she and Riftan are as far as being the Lady and Lord of the people). Those smaller expeditions would also allow her to build up her horseback riding skills and stamina.
Like, I get it. She wants to be useful and she's finally found something that she likes and something she's good at. Her surroundings and way of life is completely different from that hell hole and asshole of a family she came from. She has the support of her people and they aren't treating her like she's and idiot or incompetent. I fully support her becoming a Mage--don't get me wrong--and I can't wait to see how powerful she will get. I just hate that she is rushing to do things (like she just learned how to be a Mage 5 minutes ago), instead of taking her time, which could result in potentionally putting everyone on this expedition in danger or worse, putting herself in danger.
I'm annoyed at both Riftan and Maxie to be honest. So, I'm not trying to only bash Maxie, even though that's what it looks like, but that is because my rant was more about her. BOTH of them are at fault in this whole situation. And if something bad happens, it would be bc of them both--for different reasons, of course.
Also, Question: I see some of y'all really hating Riftan (he'seven hated in the subreddit group Im a part of), which I'm not faulting yall for or anything, but if you hate him so much, then why are yall still reading? Genuine question btw. I can understand hating a secondary character, but when it's the MC/ML/FL that you hate, how can y'all still read and stay here and complain about what the character is doing or how they're acting? I would drop the story if I hate the main character(s). OR are yall still reading bc you wanna see the story through or hoping that Riftan gets better? Is it like a "Well I came this far, might as well keep going." kinda thing? I know sometimes I do that. Especially when I'm through 90% of a story, and all of a sudden the plot decides to plummet and go stupid/ridiculous. Like, why stop when you're almost done, ya know? Again, genuine question.
Anyway, if you've gotten to the end, I honestly thank you for hearing/reading me out. And hope I didn't piss anybody off or anything. It's just honestly how I feel. I don't think my annoyance is gonna last. I'm sure both Riftan and Maxie will get back to being good characters. It's just that right now, both are being a little crappy atm.
I 100% agree but also.. in my 27 years of life I had not put together than newbie was short for newborn baby
I completely agree with you
I couldn't agree more I was so frustrated that I read the novel to know IF THEY EVER COMMUNICATE. It gets better, way deep in the story but it doess. It may not be the BEST but it's a step up compared to how they act now. So just hang in there. They even explain u the "why is the ml so reserved and doesn't communicate" troupe
I honestly love Beastmen stories. I don't care if it makes me a Furry or whatever. And this story was so cute. I honestly want a spin-off with Aoi and Himari and their high school lives. And then they each get their own second spin-off stories about their college and or adult lives and love stories. There's a lotta short (ish) stories on here where I wished for spin-offs. This one is one of them.
I see a lot of these side whispering in these stories. I don't know if I've seen too much of someone calling these Whisperers out with a "If you have something to say, then speak up. Say it to my face." I can't STAND IT when a character lets those persons talk under their breath. It aggravates me. As a Professor, I would've spoken up to those students:
Student: "Wait, shhhh...he's gonna hear us!"
Professor Me: "Of course! It's not like you were quiet about it. Since you like whispering behind people's backs, write me a 6 page essay on "What being Messy Is." and turn it in by the end of the week. Now, who else wants to whisper?" Something like that.
Also, I know MC must've had some type of trauma from that silver haired bastard, but I would've just got up and walked out of the class as soon as that sonovabitch stepped in the room. I hate that he stirred MC up so much that he fainted. With the Professor acting the way he did, I'm sure the sonovabitch is gonna find out about their relationship and do something against them.
Lastly, this "Jay" person? Yeah. Wouldn't it be great if it was actually Professor? Because of his father, he put himself behind an alias and built a reputation for himself. The sonovabitch wants to work with "her" so bad, only come to find out that it's the brother he's jealous of. OR "Jay" really is a woman, BUT she knows Professor and only wants to work with him. Both scenarios would be cool.
I don't think professor is care anyway about what other people says about him and his family lol
I think you're right! Lol
Even though I love longer chaptered stories, I have to say that I do enjoy these anthology ones too. Does anyone have any other anthology Isekai stories like this one?
Wow. First Trashta and now Shitsley. I wished both their downfall scenes could've lasted a liiiittle longer to let their timbers shiver awhile longer, but them meeting their downfall is enough for me.
I also wish Duke Willcunt and Emperor Shoveishit would have been terrorized more by what happened, but whatever. At least both men now know that what they were aiming for was all for naught. Good riddance to them BOTH.
I'm sitting here talking about how freaky Hwayoung and Gyuwon are, but then I caught myself cheesing down during these last two chapters, saying, "And they should do this, this, and this..." Coming up with whole scenarios. I'm just as much of a freak as they are. And y'all are too, reading this right along with me. We're all a bunch of freaky asses. Lmaooo I love it.
Not you calling us out (︶︿︶) I just love a good bdsm relationship
Soooo kinda sorta like Wolves Behind Bars (meh maybe/maybe not), except Omega Uke is already pregnant when he gets to jail.
