I'm gonna be honest and say that season 2 or their past life brought me back to this because I was kinda getting frustrated with how much the conflict is being dragged. I mean, sure story telling wise, dumping all the back story ain't that good. In this case, it even have the possibility to surpass the chemistry or whatever the present story have.
I'm sorry that I already forgot what happened in the 1st season and we haven't even gone to the part about the cardinal's role in the past life
I remember reading somewhere about the novel's review that when Mujin appeared and the whole love triangle bs happen that the story kinda fell off and I totally agree rn.
It started with a healing sort of vibe; all that fluffy goodness. Now, it's all drama. Even searched for some spoilers and just disappointing tbh.
AND MUJIN'S CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT ONLY HAPPENED ON THE VERY LAST CHAPTERS LYK????
Because the pacing is ridiculous and doesn't have any business being that fast if its not an adaptation like what? It had only been 35 chs and a lot of things already happened lmao
I mean yes, I love when things are not dragged but I feel like things are being unrolled too fast in this one. Like the arcs are too short. In the arc where mc runs away, there is a lot happening but nothing was given time to stew that it failed to give the illusion that the ml really spent a long time searching for mc. It felt like they found him within 3 days to a week lmao
I feel like there is no enough emotional investment to whatever is happening because a problem will literally arise in a chapter and then be solved in the same chapter or the next one.
But despite my complaining, I'll still be reading this coz I love not using my brain cells while still enjoying some cliché troupes ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
And the art improvement is a plus!
Granted that the smut is integral to the plot (i.e. gong needing to have sex to have some powers; and shou being tormented with perverted ghosts so he needs the gong to drive them away), I honestly would not mind reading a censored version of this lmao
I think I have been reading some pretty light and tame stuff recently that the smut ain't hitting the way it was before ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ or maybe I have read enough hardcore stuff lmao either way the plot and art is what hooked me in this piece!! Art is so crispy and plot ain't boring










I love the pacing of the story and I doubt it would change into some slow pace just to showcase their pasts. But Eternal Covenant just haunts me man.
That's waht I was thinking
That fact that we're all stuck in time with eternal covenant
