...this is just....weird and not in a good way.
2 stars.
Wish this story had more time to breathe. It needed to be longer.
For a series about sexual deviants there is nogay stuff even in an orgy.
That's weird af.
I wonder what the grand revenge plan is?
I think he is TRYING to play the blood demon.
But I fear he will fail in that endeavor.
But the blood demon doesn't care if this is sincere or not, all he wants is for Suho to suffer and die.
And this will help accomplish that, at the very least, Suho will grieve deeply.
I love how we don't have to wait until the end of the odyssey to fix his hometown.
He saved his mom and sister and is helping those he trusts.
Now to save his other family members who were stolen away.
That might be the odyssey.
What I understand of this story is this:
Blonde and mc were in love with other as kids but each thought it was unrequited but they were drifting towards each other and on the verge of confessing their love for each other.
Blondie's twin brother destroyed all that.
He set it up for mc to find blindie and him kissing. Mc thought all the practice was for the brother and started to distance himself.
Then their lives parted. Blondie had to leave on a family/modeling work trip of some sort.
Mc...I guess he was a bastard being raised by another man. His homelife was already violent and this made it worse to the point he ran away.
Blondie came back and everything he knew and loved was gone. Mc couldn't be found and no one will help him. He heard rumors and mc's friend, in part trying to protect mc from whom he thought was scum, warned him away.
Blondie was absolutely heartbroken and fell into deep despair and became a sex deviant. At some point, his brother, who destroyed his relationship with mc, died.
I also get the feeling that blondie hates his brother. Maybe the brother laid hands on him?
He certainly doesn't seem to know anything about how his brother ruined his relationship with mc and basically messed up everyone's lives.
The reason blondie is so violent with the men he sleeps with is because he is using them to vent all the love, hate, anger, rage, grief, trauma, jealousy, etc on them.
He needs a therapist. They all do.
Everyone involved in this twisted situation needs therapy.
Bottom line. Blondie and mc are STILL in love with each and still think it is unrequited. And they are both using each other in various means instead of COMMUNICATING about the past and how hurt they both were in thinking that they both were being used by the guy they loved in school.
Blondie and mc could be in a happy and healthy relationship with each other immediately except they are both hurt from having their love spurred by the other and blondie is way more messed up now than before and only knows how to use sex to vent.
They just need to TALK to each other. Just say, I was in love with you in school but I realized you just used me for sex and even 10 years later I still love you.
Then they can further talk and realize what happened to their relationship and why and start working on the now.
But instead we are going to have x amount of chapters of them hurting each other because they refuse to admit how hurt they were and how much they still love the other because unrequited love burns and destroys you in various ways because you have given up on ever having love and will settle for crumbs when the whole cake is within reach if only you reach for it.
Buckle up. We are in for a world of hurt with this story.
GUYS! There is another sequel!
Babies?

...this might be controversial...but each time I read this I get the feeling that this uke isn't what we think.
He feels manipulative.
All we have is the seme's pov and that one scene from the uke's home.
I feel like it was never an accident that seme always sees him at his most vulnerable.
It's just with this author, nothing is ever what you think it is.
This is a darker omegaverse than usual.
In other verses the dissolution is harsh but not life threatening and while not common it's not rare either.
In another, Alphas can be used by Omegas for bonding bites to fix their heat but they can also have sex with others (first time is harsh) and have kids. All without breaking the bonding bite.
Also, Director Mio is the biggest piece of sex trafficking rapist trash I have ever seen. He reminds me of Weinstein, Cosby, Diddy, etc.
Scum that Abuses others and uses them for evil means.
That being said, it's a HE. I feel sorry for Shiratori, they were both using each other to fix their traumas and heartbreaks but he is still alone suffering from the grief of unrequited love.
I wish he finds someone for himself. He deserves to be happy too.
Is he going to collect Ghosts to use to fix his body as they achieve Nirvana?
First grandpa and now the fox lady?
Shame it ended at chapter 70. I thought the story still had more room.

Nice. She helped save him.
Now to take out the baddies and dungeon.
Ok...I think that might actually be a cute romance.
Let's see.
Finally a series is following protocol.
1) His fellow officers as well as his boss know.
As they should. He was injured in the line of duty.
2) He is rightfully being taken off the case as he is now a victim.
3) He was taken to the hospital. I hope blood was also drawn. The drug should still be in his system and show up on a blood test.
4) He is going to a therapist.
He should also be put on medical leave for 30 days or so.
Hopefully the bastards pleadout vs making Arthur testify.
EVERYBODY in this series needs therapy.
Especially the MC and those around him. They are all dealing with trauma they have not properly addressed and sought professional help for.
His students figured it out before his mentor?
That's a bit sad... How can she not know him as well as them?
Oomph.
I wonder how things progress since they now know his truth.
Will they be teaming up against The Blood Demon?
Will they try to recruit and train others to fight against The Blood Demon?
They can't keep this secret.
He was on the job when ge was drugged and raped.
It HAS to be reported up the chain and he will be put on leave as he gets mandated therapy.
If they cover this up...it will affect him and his ability to do his job and keeping it secret can be a firing offense because of that.
They don't let people with trauma issues back at work without therapy. It gets people killed.
